There's nothing sane about this image. That fact should have terrified America. When this photo first appeared in 2015, I'd posted it with the words, "Eat my baby, Great Lord Trump! EAT MY BABY!" Ten years later, they literally ARE sacrificing children to him. Even their own. Madness.

Oh, look - a new way to fuck over mail-in votes!

CARTOON OF THE DAY 🇺🇸

Just finished watching Damien Leone's Terrifier trilogy, and beyond the series' impressive practical gore effects and yes-they-went-there spirit of transgression, I was struck by two elements of Leone's approach: First, he gives the material time and space to breathe...

I just posted a holiday gift story, "The Ice Fiddler," for my supporters at Patreon. Non-members can purchase the tale for $3.00, but it's free for all levels of patronage. Enjoy! www.patreon.com/posts/ice-fi...

A cyberpunk horror story wherein a brain-hacking roofie temporarily overwrites the victim's consciousness with a manufactured persona. A "new edge" Sword & Sorcery RPG. An apocalyptic metahumans RPG. A S&S tale featuring a warrior trapped in hell with the people and monsters he's killed. #WIP

This from the same folks looking to "protect women" from nonexistent trans rapists.

My collection Breaking the Devil's Bread came out last month from @nightmarepress.bsky.social. The novel I mentioned earlier in this thread, Red Shoes, is available in audiobook, digital, Kindle, TPB, and hardcover editions. Both can be found at all online booksellers. #HorrorWritersChat

This situation occurs in my urban fantasy novel Red Shoes. When that music plays, Genet finds herself transported from her living room into a darkened "space between worlds" where she dances with Zil, the personified spirit of the drug Red Shoes. #HorrorWritersChat

"Cris D'aveugle (Blind Man's Cry)," by Diamanda Galas. It came booming through my ceiling around 3:00 a.m. on a work night in 1990. I put on pants, went upstairs, knocked on our neighbor's door, and was like, "Hello. One: Could you please turn that down? youtu.be/aKFGWr8v8es?... #HorrorWritersChat

My soundtrack sets the tone for the words I write. I also write about music and the people who make it, rooting those stories in a combination of real-world experience, my obsession with music history and culture, musical metaphysics, and the music I'm listening to at the time. #HorrWritersChat

Hi, everyone! I'm Satyr, I specialize in dark fantasy and horrors of the cosmic, metaphysical, psychological, satirical, and occasionally splatterish variety. I always write to music. Artists and genre depend on my mood and the atmosphere I'm trying to invoke. #HorrorWritersChat

Oh, look - more social-media "writing truths" puked up by someone whose experience with writing apparently begins and ends with writing what they they feel are the "truths" about writing. I've been publishing professionally since 1989, yet seldom know exactly what I'm gonna write until I write it.

"God-Emperor Trump can authorize and de-authorize everything done by a previous president simply by thinking abut it. He can change the Constitution, too, and every order he gives is lawful and absolute!"

One of the most offensively stupid moments of the offensively stupid "Death of Robin" plotline foisted on us by DC Comics in the late 1980s featured the Ayatollah Khomeini appointing the Joker as Iran's UN ambassador. If the Joker were real, though, Trump would totally do the same thing today.

My new book arrived this morning. Thank you to Jacob Floyd and @nightmarepress.bsky.social! Breaking the Devil's Bread is also available in trade paperback and digital formats from all major (and some minor) online booksellers. Yay for new-book releases!

My Belovedest @damianaswan.bsky.social did heroic labor these past few days, crafting one the most delicious Thanksgiving dinners in my life. I made the mashed potatoes, which turned out well, and the green beans, which did not. She did everything else. I'll do the cleaning. THANK YOU, BELOVEDEST!

Another day, another reason to scrap this entire "administration" as the Russian assets they are.

Page rates were $150 when I considered working in comics during the 1990s. We know how much these work-for-hire intellectual properties in "disposable media" are worth, and that IP owners will refuse to pay royalties, despite royalties contracts, Becuz Reasons. And yet, here we still fucking are.

I saw a YouTube video where a guy posited an imaginary 1978 KISS album where, instead of making four separate solo records, the band put tracks that WOULD have gone on those solo records onto a new KISS album. I disagreed with his choices, so I made my own. Enjoy! open.spotify.com/playlist/2Ss...

Within hours, the "country of origin" feature was removed because it revealed how much MAGA presence online actually comes from foreign nations. Y'know, just like we've been saying for years that it does. www.hindustantimes.com/world-news/u...

"New phase" sure is a neato euphemism for "totally fucking illegal invasion, of a sovereign nation, that's totally based on bullshit."
