Calling it a film about “what it means to be a man who desires other men in times of war and peace” is such a diabolically reductive reading of a film that is fundamentally concerned with political violence, historical memory, and the generational consequences of repression.
“La Bola Negra,” a new film by Javier Ambrossi and Javier Calvo, dramatizes gay repression and liberation across three interconnected stories. At first, the year is 1937 and viewers are thrust deep into the Spanish Civil War, where a Nationalist soldier and a wounded Republican freedom fighter exchange furtive glances. By the end, it’s 2017, and a Madrid-based historian need only look to Grindr to satisfy an urge. The movie “wants to be a sweeping historical epic of gay longing—a film about what it means to be a man who desires other men in times of war and peace,” Justin Chang writes. Instead, the directors have produced “a film that insists, arrogantly and aggressively, on its own monumentality”. Even compelling performances from Glenn Close, Penélope Cruz, and Lola Dueñas fail to rescue the extravagantly overwrought film. Read Chang's full review: newyorker.com/culture/the-cu…

THATS WHY THEY TARGET PORN
They WANT you to be too embarrassed to advocate against their tyranny. They are weaponising cringe culture, and our anxiety-riddled social media ecosystem has made people so susceptible to it
You could go to jail for filming yourself deep throating!!

i think a complaint im noticing a lot from older people is "younger people aren't taking our dishonest, consequence-free, misinformation-dense, hypernormalised society very seriously"

what broke me about LA BOLA NEGRA (2026) is realizing I'm probably not the first f4g in my lineage, just perhaps the first one who gets to live it out loud. I stand on the shoulders of generations who had to leave so much of themselves unspoken. I'm thinking of them tonight.
