I know that realistically you can only fit so many movies into a list of approximately 100, but I cannot take that "How many of tumblr's favorite movies have you seen?" list that's been going around seriously because there are some truly egregious omissions.

Some of it is very clearly recency bias, which makes me wonder if the op truly wasn't on here in 2013 or so, but you're telling me you made a list of "tumblr's favorite movies" that doesn't include Pacific Rim or Mad Max: Fury Road? Because, like, I was there, Gandalf.

I'm a ridiculous human and genuinely couldn't sleep until I tried my hand at a better, more balanced list -- though of course, I have my own biases when it comes to what corners of this website I've lurked in over the years. For what it's worth, I did consult the last several Years In Review, while also drawing on the fact that I've been here for over a decade. But if there's anything that truly doesn't feel like it should have made the cut, blame my mutuals for putting it on my dash all the time.

(And apologies, but I couldn't seem to find Goncharov among the website's listings)

How many of these have you seen?

really cannot emphasise enough that "All Men Bad" and "masculinity is inherently violent, dangerous, and evil" are load-bearing pillars of radfeminism and these ideas cannot have a place in any truly progressive queer theorising.

Cool how someone can wax rhetoric about their incompetent partner being unpleasant but I'm suddenly the asshole for being like, idk sounds like you're with someone who sucks. "You don't know them like I do" okay!! Notice how there's no way I'd know that since you haven't shared anything positive!

The bulk of heterosexual humor appears to be "joking rant about real grievances" and the expectation is you join in with your own (gendered) horror stories and when you're like "I don't have this issue and maybe you shouldn't either," you've broken an unspoken rule about joint suffering
