Can't say I'm all broke up about Timmy being shut-out, lol. #schadenfreude

I'd be, like, "You're ALREADY trying to alpine divorce me? You don't even know me!"

Re: Undertone - I love cursed media stories, thus so very much my thing, but it's about so much more in terms of its' horror; the weight of grief and guilt and isolation. I don't mean to compare it directly to @gemmafiles.bsky.social's story "Echo Chamber" but that's what I kept thinking of.

Behind the times once again, but this is fire. Funny and such great flows. And that track! www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMUS...

I feel like we're talking about Vegas now the way some people still talk about NYC back in the '70s. Consider myself lucky that I knew both those places when. www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJcy...

@michaelwehunt.bsky.social if you win Best Novel can all of us trapped in this book move into your award house, please?

I expect more heartbreakers as I dig into PitW, but once again my sad boi has got me laying on the floor in a state of blissful melancholy. www.youtube.com/watch?v=acA8...

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

Today's rewatch:

Readers, EVERY Gemma Files book is worth it! Trust me, I've read them all.

I just heard about Ralph Towner's passing...Solstice was a singular achievement in a lifetime full of them. www.youtube.com/watch?v=oi-H...

@gemmafiles.bsky.social have you heard about The Undertone? Once again they made a movie just for you and me! www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6uD...

This is likely something only I care about, but you will never convince me that Motley Crue wasn't heavily influenced by Aerosmith's "Home Tonight" when they recorded "Home Sweet Home." Mick's solo, especially, is pure Joe Perry. www.youtube.com/watch?v=FmOs...

LOL, people who think Heated Rivalry came out of nowhere - you have never read any Hockey RPF and it shows. 😜

‪I always like to say,"Watch the film that IS, not what you want it to be;" but I failed with Immaculate, which I think neither lived up to its Catholic Horror potential, nor to its Gothic leanings. It was so close! But rewatches of Lords of Salem and Delivery: The Beast Within fixed that right up!

whoa, it's @gradyhendrix.bsky.social AND @catrionaward.bsky.social’s bdays TODAY?! Two of our very best contemporary horror writers, born on the same day?! AND Shirley Jackson, too?!?! That's some cosmic alignment shit right there. Go buy a Cat book & a Grady book (and, hey, a Shirley book) today!

OMG I'm just...this is such a trainwreck (much like the book). I can't even be pithy because words fail in the face of the way she's responding to what seems to be a simple question. www.youtube.com/shorts/yhhWj...

Now reading @nadiabulkin.bsky.social's Issues With Authority (released by @ghoulish.bsky.social!), and once again this is a sterling collection by a fabulous voice in the Horror space (and whatever other space she wishes to inhabit)! Loving it!! 🖤

She smiles and says "I will always love you."

Desolate album cover? Check. SAD BOI HOURS RETURNING SOON. 💔😭

Watching House On Eden which has a very simple premise but it is creepy AF (at least for me) and one of the best reprises of the BWP chemistry. I recommend for the curious.

My nightly walks for Halloween week are that much creepier courtesy of the audiobook version of Haunted Nights featuring my all-time favorite, @johnlangan.bsky.social's "Lost in the Dark." Vibes: terrifying! 💀

Today's Hot Take: Girls/Women *have* to understand males so well, they make better males in this skit than actual boys would. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ID1j...

"The gravity that used to hold you down, just don't exist no more..." #RIPSpaceAce #RIPAceFrehley

@michaelwehunt.bsky.social Chapter Sixteen: 😱😱😱😱😱😱

Happy Belated Bookbirthday to The October Film Haunt and grateful thank you to @michaelwehunt.bsky.social for doing a great AMA on r/horrorlit today! TOFH promises super spooky bad times and I'm only five chapters in! 😱 Let it haunt you too! 😈

Just finished @scumbelievable.bsky.social's Black Flame (so incredible!) and going right into @haileypiperfights.bsky.social's A Game In Yellow! This is how you do Hot Girl Horror Summer! 🖤🔥

I know the kids are seriously using "unserious" and I don't know why it fucking bothers me, but it SERIOUSLY does. 🤪 (Mainly because there's so many fun words to use in place of that non-term.)

So much of what made these efforts "genius" and "paradigm-breaking," and "the map of the future" was the efforts of a particular group of passionate intelligent wonderful people and we should always acknowledge that.

I keep meaning to opine that I think @gradyhendrix.bsky.social's story "The Blanks" (from the Amazon Original Stories collection The Shivers) unfolds like an Elin Hilderbrand beach read gone horribly horribly horribly wrong and I absolutely LOVED IT even as it eviscerated me by the end.

Happy 64th to my blue drumgod, the actual factual gentle giant, and a genuine force of Nature. Long may he reign.

Eek, I might get ratio'd, who knows, but S2E3 of Helluva Boss becoming a Mafia AU of itself is fucking GENIUS! 🤣

Feeling so happy that today is the day I finally own all of @jordanharper.bsky.social's books! 😁

RFK Jr.'s willful misunderstanding of the autism spectrum is yet another example of how this man is too dumb to hold any office, especially one involving making decisions for the health and safety of this country. My creds? Autistic and can write that man under the table any day of the week.

This song...OMFG! www.youtube.com/watch?v=BMi1...

Watching Mr. Jones (2013) - a film I've always wanted to see but just never got around to until now; it's interesting to me what a grab-bag of elements it is, which may be part of the reason why critics didn't like it. But I'm liking it so far even though I feel like it's a bit truncated in places.

Truthfully there's not much to laugh at these days, which is why I am so thankful to have discovered Josh Johnson (thank you to whomever it was on Reddit - I think? - who brought him up in discussion). www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgKs...

You know a book is good when you keep talking to the protagonist like they can hear you, lol.

This scares me as much as Project 2025, but is as equally important to consider as a threat. www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RpP...

The more commentary I see from what seems to be GenZ about how creative pursuits are "not fun" because they take too much time and effort - you can fuck all the way off into the sun with that bullshit, just sayin.' You are NOT going to cheat code your way out of it with garbage solutions.

I loved the dreams he dreamed, and that he allowed us entry to those dreams, those visions, those worlds. They are inside me now, forever. RIP 💔

I've lived this tragedy myself and my heart goes out to everyone affected by this tragedy, and the crews giving their all to fight these fires. 💔

JFC the brainrot really gets me down sometimes.

Found Footage double feature today: Mind, Body, Spirit and Invoking Yell. MBS was the kind of story I tend to enjoy, they broke some rules but it didn't throw me out of it; the execution could have been better in terms of the script but the filming was well done and the location was great.

The way an @sgj.bsky.social story can go from "This is fine, totally fine, nothing to be afraid of." to "OMFG WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT?!" in space of 2-3 sentences? Language is the magic he wields! #OurRecentUnpleasantness

I thought this was a really interesting retelling of what is one of my favorite Edith Wharton novels. The 21st Century update shows that EW was wonderfully timeless in her examination of social mores. www.audible.com/pd/Glimpses-...

Post a scene from a movie you've seen more than 10 times.

I've been noting to people that the whole thing with Luigi Mangione reminds me of Sacco & Vanzetti and they're all, "Who?" See, this is what comes of being hyperfixated with Emma Goldman as a teenager.
