Now we shall see how different Del Toro's Frankenstein is from Del Toro's Frankenstein.

So when people ask me what my gen vibe for media analysis is, it's stuff like this. Did the creator intend this? Well that's far less interesting than what ended up on the table. If you can argue it, I love to see it youtu.be/QEZ7qFVQZWk

As you cancel streaming services, here is a casual reminder that only 16% of Americans read for pleasure anymore, and your local library has hundreds or thousands of books you haven't read. They would love to see you stop by and renew your library card.

It's release day for ROOTS OF MY FEARS, edited by @manylittlewords.bsky.social This is a beautiful gathering of authors, and I'm proud to have as part of it my story "Crepuscular," about two mothers journeying to heal their daughter of a telekinetic disease. titanbooks.com/72017-roots-...

For Patreon, all paid members will be able to vote on September's subject today into next week. Either option will basically be a series of little topics, which is always fun.

Fear the Old Blood 🩸🧠👁️

The curse of anti-war writers is that to criticize war you have to depict war well and to do that you have to show the ways that the state uses kinship (brotherhood) and eroticization (war is sexy) to sell war to young people. Inevitably, people miss the criticism and just want to fuck the Gundam.

I may have mistaken tomorrow for today. Patreon Vid on the summer hikaru died is being posted and will be available tonight, but later than I wanted. My apologies

“They have the weapons but we have everything else.”

Heyyyyyy youtu.be/QwpanShgOp4?...

Re-upping this for the afternoon:

If you're a fantasy author and comp title Abercrombie, I expect wit. I want to open that book and find enough layers of wordplay to make a crepe cake look flat. Amongst the gaggle of dark fantasy authors, his goose is the one with the kazoo.

Dracula is coming, but this was a much better use of my time. youtu.be/aryr_cIuaUE

August Poll is up in Patreon between the Summer Hikaru Died and Dracula research footnotes. Enjoyyy

Please support my friend Adham by donating and sharing his campaign. Every bit counts.

Basically, I wasn't happy with a little bit of the sound mixing in my OG and restructured one tangent I did to be placed in better spots to make the flow of this video a bit better. The old vid is still up and unlisted, but if you want 1" of new hotness. youtu.be/WEBM1bx9lts?...

I'm doing a vid on Clair Obscur on YT tomorrow, so that'll be a fun time

We have hit the part of vid essay editing where the software is crashing out. It's only an hour, girl! We have one more audio bite! Hold it together!

And...we're doing a video on Clair Obscur. At least this time I have more than 5 minutes of footage. Yet 9 hours of recordings to sift through is just as crash-out inducing...who knew?

Oh, BTW, dropping the Sinners Vid today. Enjoy if you've seen it

If you're not wearing the baguette outfits for every cutscene of Expedition 33, you're doing it wrong.

I tripped and fell into 3 video essays. Whoops

"How's final edits going?" I don't think I know how to write sentences anymore. They've lost all meaning to me, like someone just saying "toaster" on repeat makes it not a word. So, pretty good. On track for December. www.amazon.com/Blessed-Devo...

Books that came up for me while watching “Sinners”: One of the characters said white people tell us about heaven in the sky after death while they enjoy their heaven on earth now. I immediately thought of Malcolm X. The serious yet comedic feel reminded me of Ring Shout #booksky #blackbooksky

PLEASE don’t buy into Amazon’s booksale this week. They are intentionally trying to eat into profits from Indie Bookstore Day this weekend, a really important annual event for our important community institutions. Check out your local fave or bookshop.org.

Thank you for standing up for the transgender community, Nicola! 👏🏼

I tried to be good about Nosferatu, but I am, in fact, on page 13 of this silly script. Yay

Nothing like the taste of your 88th birthday cake! Thank you, Bradder, for a wonderful celebration with friends and family today.

Hi. I am a nerd who likes author interviews like this...so...maybe you will too. m.youtube.com/watch?v=XKCH...

I'm cooking with this #sunriseonthereaping vid...but I did have to rearrange the kitchen

Kurt Vonnegut man

The Hunger Games Series spent years creeping into southern gothic territory, made camp with Ballad, built a cabin with Sunrise.

Why are some people so stuck on this? I’m nearly 88 years old. If I can roll with the times, anyone can!

I was going to do this for a while, but now I gotta rush a little for Tiktok's sake. So, that dark fantasy book I wrote? If you want it for free and early, donate to a charity. Do something kind for your community. Bam. Free book. Details here docs.google.com/forms/d/1jNG...
