Terry Pratchett was a prophet.

The Bone Temple, well, *that* was the best scene Ralph Fiennes has ever done in anything!! And fuck me: the END. Also really very much loathe the the Jimmies. And probably won't watch this again. The violence really kind of got to me. Am I getting old?

Last night's Mock the Week was awesome!

I laughed aloud at this, I admit, heehee!

I'm in my Renfield era 🤣

Wow!

Watching Final Destination for the first time. I know, shocking... Tony is divine.

To cute award of the day . 😍

First time being poorly since being diagnosed with epilepsy hasn't been fun. Especially today - I have a fever, so I need to get that down sharpish because a high fever can cause a seizure...

Listening to a podcast about Carpenter's Vampires and the hosts asked each other: "What is your favourite vampire movie?" And my poor brain is not coping with that question at all. It's like when someone asks me what my favourite book is, like what the hell kind of a question is that?! I can give

I'm so fucking sick and tired of being poorly.

"What do you want you moon-faced assassin of joy!?”

@sesmith.lol I just feel like you need to see this.

Happy #TwinPeaks Day! Thank you very much for being so kind and supportive. Hope you all have a wonderful day celebrating. #MarkFrost #DavidLynch #LauraPalmer

Instagram just recommended an AI medical app or something like that. Look I may have brain trauma, but I'm not a fucking idiot!

Well bugger it. I have a cold and am full of snot and coughs 😭😭😭

Without the dots, it looks like polygraph test results from a pathological liar.

@doomedrider.bsky.social Happy birthday, sweetie! xxx

What is this, a horror film PR poster? No, they're Snapdragon seed pods. Snapdragons are beautiful, colorful garden flowers but obviously these are the creepiest seed pods of any kind.

Just finished listening to the beautiful audio version of A Stroke of the Pen, and bloody stupid audible started playing a fucking free sample of a Potter 🤬

So, turns out the dummins hadn't read the actual book. He thought "Bram Stoker's Dracula" IS the story. Goddammit. 🤦🏼‍♀️

The whole nonsense with the perfume is a no from me, fuck off. If you know me, you know I hate any and all perfumes/scents/smells. Thanks to 40 years of suffering from migraines induced by most smells, definitely all perfumes, the very idea of becoming entranced by a perfume is ludicrous. Also, the

Oh, this is a comedy-ish. Right. Dracula A Love Tale, it was certainly a Luc Besson movie... I have seen many a Dracula adaptation. Some of them are among my absolute favourite movies. This one will not be on that list.

Stunning 😍😍😍

Listening to the audio version of Terry Pratchett's A Stroke of a Pen, and there's a character called Ron Weasle in one of the stories. I find that fascinating.

It is so funny how I haven't noticed the almost overuse of the word "voluptuous" in Dracula until listening to the audio version. I have read it a dozen times, at least, for goodness' sake!

I imagine it was extremely disturbing

Millennium, season 2 episode 14 The Pest House. I always enjoy seeing Michael Massee, especially when he is playing a lunatic/sociopath - he does it so well.

It only took the neurology clinic two weeks and four days to let me know that I should stop taking the blood thinners. That is two weeks and four days since I had already seen my neurosurgeon's reply to their consultation in my mail app. I also received that reply as a physical letter yesterday.

Historian of medicine here. Yes. Yes, they did.

Happy Book Birthday to THE DAUGHTER WHO REMAINS. The novella trilogy is complete. 🐉🧙🏾‍♀️ This one opens with pure juju. Najeeba has something terrible to kill. Available where books are sold, including Afriware Books: www.afriwarebooks.com/store/p4933/...

We are listening to an audio version of Dracula. Bram, my dude, there are other words than "voluptuous" 🤣

"Nnedi Okorafor credits Le Guin with proving fantasy heroes didn't have to be white." WRONG. AI is just out here flat out lying about me. I never said this. No disrespect the Great LeGuin but no one ever needed to "prove" such a thing. Mschew. Anyone who knows me knows I don't speak like that.

Facts:

Yes it’s Valentine’s Day. But it’s also the chosen birthday of Frederick Douglass who was born in 1818 on a plantation in Talbot County, Maryland. He escaped from slavery & rose to become the most eloquent and forceful voice for the abolition of slavery & for Black voting rights in the U.S.

The rebuttal to this is that Star Trek is not a show about how the future could be but how the present should be. To eradicate disability, rather than accept and accommodate it, is a eugenicist ideal.

I was about to click on a video on YouTube, but @hodgiepig.bsky.social reminded me what happens when we watch an English speaking Lake Bodom murder video. I go batshit because of the disrespectful (I said what I said) pronunciation of the Finnish and Swedish names.

I’m crying and throwing up 😭 LESTAT

"She could be his mother???" Why are people?!

I feel like this gestures towards a really interesting tension in non-dystopian sci-fi, and the way it can sort of cast into relief the things we consider Problems, the things we do and don’t consider Solvable, the things we see as within and without the bounds of technology, underlying fascistic…

Holey sheet. Here's why you NEED to have a password for your family.

Even if it weren’t #BlackHistoryMonth, I think this @locusmag.bsky.social interview with top-tier #Africnfuturist #author @nnedi.bsky.social would be well worth #reading! She finishes the “She Who Knows” Trilogy this month! #amreading #sciencefiction #BookSky📚💙 locusmag.com/feature/nned...

Memory from 9 years ago :D

Good grief, the first episode of season two of Millennium is a ride! We are back on our rewatch 😊

Great idea!
