Guys, you may not know his name, but you all have seen his talent. #DrewStruzan was indeed an icon. Sometimes, his poster work was the best thing about the movie. He was a true artist lost in this age of AI and fakeass “creatives.”

Sitting here in shock. 💔#fuckcancer

HEY HOUSTON! Have you heard about the Emily Takes Notes fundraiser? Well, it's this Sunday and I'm on the host committee. Get your ass LOCALLY ENGAGED: substack.com/home/post/p-...

Houstonia let me write about how galas can be beneficial to large nonprofits with the budget. But what about smaller ones? What do they do to ensure they both fund their projects and make donors in lower tax brackets know that they, too, are appreciated? www.houstoniamag.com/arts-and-cul...

Just a little note for the pm crowd. Every morning this month, I am posting one of our animals dressed for Halloween. Most are worth looking for.

I have an absurd amount of free concert giveaways happening on Instagram. (Yes, I know y'all hate it) NXWorries Thursday, 10/9/25 at HOB Houston, Kublai Khan Saturday, 10/11/25 at White Oak, Ice Cube Friday, 10/17/25 at Toyota Center, and John Legend on Sunday, 10/19/25 at Smart Centre.

DJO can get it. 😮‍💨🥵

I don’t say this enough - I fucking love Tubi.

An absolute fave! #spookyseason

There's nothing like a poorly maintained gravelly sidewalk to put a literal spring in your step as you trip or stumble. No sidewalk means putting your life in the hands of already distracted drivers, hoping they see you walking. Feels like a super basic need to fulfill. Good read.

We’re crewed up for The Fog this weekend! Easily in my top ten.

Honest inquiry, so if the government is “shut down,” does that mean the ICE Gestapo isn't harassing people right now?

You can't keep a good vampire down. As part of Pluto TV's new Halloween Hits category, we've brought back the DARK SHADOWS single-series channel for the month of October. Watch it along with THE ADDAMS FAMILY, THE TWILIGHT ZONE, and other creepy favorites all month long: pluto.tv/us/live-tv/5...

Going to the movie theater is my happy place, and most of my comfort films are horror films 😬 So tonight, 10/01/25, we kicked off our spooky season with Regal Cinemas’ #31ScreamsOnScreen with a viewing of Tobe Hooper's The Funhouse (1981). We’ll be hitting up River Oaks for their line-up too!

Donald Trump already gave us the longest shutdown in U.S. history—35 days straight from December 2018 to January 2019. This is now the fourth government shutdown under a Trump Administration.

El Gato Cafe has hit the 1000 adoptions milestone, truly incredible!!! 😻😻😻

Neko Case opens up to EW about overcoming loss and why her new album, 'Neon Grey Midnight Green,' is a tribute to music at its most communal and authentic: 'I don't think AI can write a song that makes you pull your car over and cry.'

Have you considered adopting a rescue from @blueheronfarm.bsky.social to bring extra joy into your life? Tesla won't tell you that she likes Joe Edison Beans, but she's definitely warmed up to his presence. They even try to play together sometimes.

FYI! We have temporarily lost the parking lot rights and only learned of this today, Saturday, 9/27/25. Normal parking will hopefully resume on Wednesday, 10/1/25. Street parking is available in the surrounding neighborhoods and businesses. We wholeheartedly apologize for the inconvenience.

HIGHLY recommend the new Lilith Fair documentary. It's great.

For a very long time I was told by some very angry people that the constitution should be followed to the letter. Apparently that only means the letters they like.

I don't know what's happening in our country, but I’ve never felt more terrified to be here, to see the real-time dissolution of the no.1 tenet of our founding fathers. There’s not supposed to be a line between who can & can't have “…free and public expression of opinions without censorship…”

Sunday I met THE #jeffgoldblum when he brought his jazz band to Houston! I've had a few celebrity encounters but this one was absolutely the best! I reached my hand up before he left the stage, he took it in his cool, dry piano fingers and I said, "I love you Jeff!" He said, "I love you too!" 🫶
