Hulk Hogan has passed. He wasn’t my escape. He was just fun — loud, bright, and untouchable. Before I knew people disappointed you… he reminded me how good it felt to just cheer for something. That giants could be toppled. I tip my hat, not to the man, but the memories left.

I wanna talk about The Black Phone 2 since it's upcoming. The first film worked because it was tight and terrifying. One kid. One room. One killer. One phone. Ethan Hawke’s Grabber felt real. Reminiscent of the Atlanta child murders. That era where: "It’s 10pm. Do you know where your children are?"

Per Kaiju News Outlet - "Shin Godzilla" in 4K will be released in theaters on August 14th with a home release to follow. The film will feature "its original Japanese language with subtitles, including restored text cards and a 4K remaster that has never before been released in North America."

I'm really going all out in my first horror novella and asking what if Dock Ellis’s 1970 no-hitter wasn’t just baseball history... but the center of a cosmic ritual? A loop. A test. A reckoning. 🧠⚾️👁️ This is Seams of the Infinite.

Just had the chance to share a bit about my journey as a children’s book author over at Awesome Gang. From the heart behind Tico Goes to School to what’s next—it’s all in there. Check it out here: awesomegang.com/flaco-sol/ #booksky #childrensbooks #indieauthor #authorinterview

Tico Goes to School is out now — a story about bravery, identity, and being proud of who you are. Next comes Seams of the Infinite — a cosmic horror novella rooted in baseball and madness. I write horror because that’s where my mind lives. I write for kids so theirs never has to. 📚 ljpbooks.com

The Ugly Stepsister lowkey runs a perfect horror arc: 🧼 Act 1: Clean setup—Elvira’s the “ugly” one, desperate in a beauty-obsessed world 🔥 Act 2: Slow-burn madness—microaggressions, rejections, and cosmetic nightmares 💀 Act 3: Full tilt unravel—makeup, murder, and one hell of a ballroom finale.

Just watched The Ugly Stepsister on Shudder and man… Elvira out here bodying folks with a curling iron and a dream. Cinderella’s glow-up turned her into the final boss, and this poor girl’s just trying to get noticed without becoming an accessory to homicide. Brutal. Beautiful. Bonkers. #Horrorsky

I stumbled on a 13-minute extended mix of I Want Your Love by Chic, and it’s been living rent-free in my bloodstream ever since. This mix is what sent me down the rabbit hole chasing extended grooves and dancefloor hypnosis. 🪩🔥 🎧 youtu.be/IfVmFkjsUtc?... If you're not moving by 30 secs in, idk.

It’s not writer’s block. It’s something weirder. You could write—hell, you want to write. But your brain is jammed up with: ✅ Story ✅ Metadata ✅ SEO ✅ Categories ✅ Audience ✅ Vibes ✅ Fonts ✅ ISBNs ✅ Keywords ✅ Upload dates ✅ Sales psychology It’s a lot. 🧵 #Booksky

So the Falcons just got fined $250K because their coach’s kid prank-called Shedeur Sanders on draft night. Pretended to be the Saints' GM. Told him he got drafted. This ain’t a prank. This is a felony-level dad fail. 🧵

Dock Ellis. LSD. A no-hitter. That part is true. I’m rewriting the story as a cosmic horror novella—where the stadium isn’t just watching, it’s waiting. Here’s a peek at Seams of the Infinite. Let me know what you think. #WritingCommunity #HorrorLit #BlackHistory #Baseball #CosmicHorror #Booksky

Could use some fresh eyed critiques of my website. lacandonjunglepress.com

Roddy Piper and Olivia Hussey were both born on this day—and horror fans are better for it. They Live and Black Christmas gave us two icons we’ll never forget. Both are deeply missed. 🎂🎬👻🕶️💔

Turns out “You don’t need an AR-15, the government won’t turn on you” aged about as well as a Blockbuster card. - There's not a horror story that's ever been written, scarier than your own homeland turning on the very document upon which it was founded. Dracula is alive and well in 2025.

“Unidentified law enforcement detaining people without warrants or cause” Cool. So we’ve hit the 1973 Chile chapter of the democracy playbook. Still think the 2A was about duck hunting?

Now is the time, I believe, where liberals should ask themselves why they didn't listen to 2A supporting liberals. We have unidentified police officials kidnapping citizens/legalized immigrants and taking them away without saying why or for how long. 2A was meant for this shit.

Happy to connect here as well! Another great place for the horror community!

Glad to see my friends @promotehorror.bsky.social here on Bluesky.

Jackie Robinson didn’t just break the color barrier—he sprinted through it while getting cleated by racists and still hit .297. Guy had to play baseball and be Gandhi at the same time. Unreal. #JackieRobinsonDay

I’m not a reader. Never pretended to be. But I’ve got these stories sitting on my chest like they’re owed to someone, and writing’s the only way to breathe again. #booksky

Some people fall in love with books. I just needed a place to pour the noise in my head. Turns out that place was a blank page. #booksky

I don’t like to read. Never really have. But for some reason, I keep trying to write things that feel like something I wish existed. Maybe that’s the point. #booksky

As a baseball fan and horror author, writing Seams of the Infinite felt like connecting two parts of myself. I admire Dock Ellis for his boldness, humor, and bravery. Weaving his real-life courage into a tale of cosmic dread has been surprisingly personal—and deeply rewarding. #booksky

What if Dock Ellis’s no-hitter was more than history remembers? What if baseball was a ritual, and reality itself was fraying with every pitch? In Seams of the Infinite, Dock must finish a game he never truly began—because sometimes, the seams hold more than just leather and stitches. #booksky

Dock Ellis spoke openly against racism and injustice. In Seams of the Infinite, his struggle against cosmic forces subtly mirrors the real fight he waged off the field. Some horrors are supernatural; others are human-made. This story has both. #booksky

Blending Dock Ellis’s true experiences with fictional horror elements is both a challenge and a thrill. The historical Dock was already larger-than-life. Adding a cosmic horror spin felt strangely natural—like pulling at threads already there. #booksky

Dock Ellis was more than just the pitcher who threw a no-hitter on acid. He was a fierce activist, challenging norms and confronting injustice. In Seams of the Infinite, I wanted to honor that courage—using cosmic horror to amplify the tension between individual defiance and cosmic inevitability.

Writing Seams of the Infinite is surreal in ways I didn't expect. Dock Ellis’s real-life no-hitter on LSD is legendary, but crafting it into cosmic horror feels both reverent and delightfully unsettling. I keep wondering: did I choose this story, or did it choose me? #booksky

🐯Tico Goes to School🐯 It's finally launch day, and I'm relieved. If this early reader might interest a child in your world, give it a look. Available in English, Spanish, and Bahasa Indonesia Thank you for allowing me into your child's day. #booksky linktr.ee/lacandonjung...

Dock Ellis pitched a no-hitter on LSD in 1970. That’s a fact. But what if it wasn’t just a trip? What if that was the day he saw it—the real game behind the game? @#booksky

Late Night with the Devil is top-tier modern cosmic horror—no doubt. But Glorious (yes, the bathroom one with J.K. Simmons’ disembodied voice) lit the fire under me. That movie pushed me to write Seams of the Infinite—more than Lovecraft ever did. #booksky
