It appears that this legend owns a little bookstore — and you can order books from him instead of Bezos. Link in next post.

From the NY Post. You know they are really scrambling when they are running "The gun was no angel" stories.

🌲The Mammoth cover issue 1🌲 'Mysteries lurk in the forest...' One of my faves that I did for Mad Cave Studios~ I want to do more horror covers! 🥹❤️

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque: "This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

The funny thing about the invention of the wheel is the guy who invented it died penniless. It wasn't until much much later that pennies were invented

How is this repeatedly made into a policy issue - by *all* parties - when the blunt fact of the matter is that grown adults who are obliged to pay for their own education, and relentlessly pursued to repay their loans, should be able to study whatever the fuck they want.

"They Saw Everything" (il visto tutto) 1962 Dir. Giancarlo Giardino Not my favourite Giardino but tense like nothing else I've seen. The dub leaves a little to be desired but jnfortunately the original is long out of print probably my favourite poster I've painted so far

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

The thing about the current horrors is that they're not new. For years the US government has separated families via deportations, murdered foreign civilians, and violently suppressed civil liberties. The problem is that now they're all social media addicted freaks so they post about it.

The reason the Right are so invested in the myth that the arts have no value isn’t because the arts don’t generate wealth (they do); it’s that studying the arts teaches people to imagine better ways of judging the value of an idea than by counting how much money it makes…

I’m telling you: ridicule works. These guys are supposed to intimidate the citizenry and it’s very hard to do that when a guy in a frog suit is just staring you down and daring you to do something that makes it look like you’re afraid of a cartoon

On June 2, 1991, flight 283 from LA to Newark lost all contact with ATC. The aircraft never landed, and no remains were found. Ever since, rumors of a "ghost plane" have spread among aviation enthusiasts, who claim to have seen flight 283 attempting to land at airports across the world.

Your reminder that they cannot arrest millions of people no matter how hard they try. They lack the infrastructure, they lack the personnel, and the economy would straight-up collapse They are going to try to scare us by making examples out of a few people, and our job is to not fall for it

Hello, I write literary horror and surrealist trash. You can find links to all of my publications on my website, and a page devoted to free stories & audio online. I'd be immensely grateful if you'd buy my books or request them through your library to support my writing. horrorsong.blog/books/

did not know pg.99 had so many guys in their band and it was really like a clown car situation watching all those guys appear

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA 10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

Finally finished colouring next variant comics cover for @miskatonichigh.bsky.social.

speaking as a mentally ill drug addict myself it’s been a real horrorshow watching what happens when one of us gets the unrestricted keys to the kingdom without having to get his head on even a little bit straight first

Classic Castle surrealism. From its acid trip crimson soaked bloodbath, to Price and his fear feeding parasite it's absurd schlock brilliance. 1959. #horrorcommunity #horrorfamily #horrormovie #horrorfilm #horrorfan #classichorror #horroraddict #filmsky #horrorsky #mutantfam #horrorfam #vincentprice

taking immediate psychic damage by checking my phone and flooding my brain with all the terrible things going on in the world the instant my eyes open in the morning:

Anyone else love Heck House (1984) ? I know the remake got kinda trashed but the original is something wondrous Acrylic on canvas (this is a recreation of the original poster by Emily Grade)

you guys know that anyone can just make a comic or an infographic right. like we can all do some fact checking before horking down our slop right

I can't make it in today, my buddies & I are getting consumed by The Goop™

I'm genuinely disturbed. I'm living in a country that is passionate about defending the 'free speech' of those who would incite violence against minorities, but equally passionate about arresting people for calling a genocide a genocide.

wanna see the only painting I've made that's made me retch & giggle throughout the process?

Modern politics is right wing parties saying “We have summoned The Shadow Lord from the realm of eternal screaming, he shall lay waste to this wretched earth” while sensible centrists say “We’re going to lose the next election if the left keeps moaning about The Shadow Lord.”

I wrote some science fiction if that provides any broader appeal!

I'm ded 💀 😂 😂 😂

British "debate" on migration is in the gutter, but we should still be shocked that Labour's response yesterday was to criticise Farage for being insufficiently detailed in his plan for mass detention camps.

You know what? I'd rather share these while they're still up. This is @filmmusicnews24.bsky.social's review on Hallow Road via @moviemarker.bsky.social. Among many inaccuracies, not only is Pike's character a paramedic racing to rescue her daughter–Rhys is in the car with her the entire time.

On 27th August 2015, The Shepherd's Crown, the last book Sir Terry Pratchett completed before he died, was published. To mark the ten year anniversary, we have a message from Rob Wilkins:

Often mistaken for a middle-class Oxbridge graduate, much to his annoyance. In fact a great champion of working-class talent, and supporter of what we're trying to do. This interview seems to have pleasantly surprised a few people, hope you enjoy it:

I am sickened by the relentless demonisation of refugees. No refugee underfunded a school. No refugee closed a hospital. No refugee took away support from the sick and disabled. We need solutions not scapegoats. Stop blaming refugees and tax the rich instead!

It’s quite astonishing that so many UK Labour supporters don’t register Starmer’s war on Queer ppl. Apparently because, like Hitler, Starmer has some gay officials, he can’t be anti-LGBTQ! & they can’t be willing to aide him for political expediency. History alone tells us that’s balderdash. [1]

Fuck it. I’ll take a break when I’m dead. I finally made a sheet for these. Ponder my wares.

He was very good in person with his trans fans too. Growing up going to SF cons, I met many trans people before I even knew what trans meant. I gave my parents very little they needed to accept in their child, so they had lots left over for everyone else. 😉 www.thepinknews.com/2021/08/06/t...
