Happy birthday to Richard Matheson, one of the best American writers of the fantastic. His credits are insanely long and even if you don't know his name, I'm 99.9% sure you know his work.

New interview live with one of my favorite voices in horror, @comptonwrites.bsky.social! We cover so much ground surrounding the horror genre, unpack his book, Dead First, and much more. Truly, this is the kind of conversation that podcast hosts DREAM of having!!! Links to listen below!

Our farmers and producers work hard to feed our families, and President Trump's plans to quadruple beef imports from halfway across the globe is a slap in the face to their work. We should put American producers first. My letter to President Trump ⬇️ content.govdelivery.com/accounts/WIG...

“.. We could spend the whole day reacting to every buffoonish spectacle coming out of the White House, but that's exactly what they want: for us to lose focus … Don't be distracted by the noise; watch what they are doing to your rights while you stare at the screen.”

@gregghurwitzbooks.bsky.social Any news on when we might see X on the small screen?

Baseball's Alphonse-Gaston act (in which two outfielders chase a fly ball, then defer to each other as the ball drops between them) derives from Fred Opper's comic strip about two over-polite Frenchmen. Here, a film from 1903: www.loc.gov/item/96521660/

Shawn Harris, retired Army brigadier general and Democratic candidate for Marjorie Taylor Green's Congressional seat in Georgia’s 14th, returns to our @siriusXM #127 show tonight.

I'm starting on this right now.

Hey, Boo

Federal judge orders slavery exhibit at Philadelphia’s Independence Hall be restored, and called the Trump’s attempt to erase history Orwellian and horrifying #FDT #AmericanHistory #TrumpNaziPlaybook #DV1 #ProuBlue www.inquirer.com/news/philade...

We should not fund a Department of Homeland Security that terrorizes children and forces them to spend their dying days trying to see their father one last time.

Just a "Dude with a Sign" reminding you my State of the State Address is this Tuesday night, February 17. 📺 Tune in live at 7 p.m.

Of all the iterations of "The Fly", the most disturbing scene to me is the end of the original. Vincent Price, sitting on a park bench, hears a tiny voice crying, "Help me! Help me!". He looks over and sees a fly with a human head about to be eaten by a spider. He throws a rock at the web. Chills.

Facts:

When CBS This Morning interviewed Jacob Elordi, I half expected him to start choking his interviewer.

Unbelievably, it's become just warm enough to open the windows and air the place out. Bug is enjoying a much- needed sniff of fresh air.

President Trump's chaotic trade wars and tariff taxes are making life more expensive for Wisconsinites in Milwaukee and communities across our state. www.milwaukeemag.com/milwaukee-ta...

"Greetings, and welcome to the White House! Here's your complimentary cup of drool".

"Sisu" is brutal, gory fun.

FFRF Action Fund’s “Theocrat of the Week” is Nicki Minaj for her absurd, Christian nationalism-fueled social media rant following her recent alignment with the Trump administration and the MAGA movement.

Pam Bondi was AG in Florida when I lived there years ago, and no one liked her then, either.

Man, Paul Giamatti (Starfleet Academy) is a seriously bad villain.

The president is overruling science to eliminate measures that protect us from pollution and environmental damage, mainly to benefit multinational corporations that have thrown money at his campaign, ballroom, and family. It's simple corruption, and it will cost American lives and livelihoods.

There are many, many rich men gnashing their teeth in private.

Aren’t we as humans past the point of trying to pretend we still have the luxury of being any less than honest about where we stand - now , when the whole world is going down in flames ? Isn’t now the high time to stand up for what’s right ?

Pam Bondi is an awful, awful person.

I'm reading an unusual, funny and dark novel by C.K. McDonnell called "The Stranger Times". The title refers to a newspaper that collects stories about the weirdest tales people come up with that they claim to be true, and not surprisingly, some of them are. An interesting cast of characters, too.

It's cool how people once allied with those mentioned in the Epstein files are deserting them in droves.

He was pardoned for serious crimes - facilitating the financing of terrorists and sex predators. Because he agreed to put millions into Trump’s pocket. Naked corruption. Out in the open for all to see.

A friendly reminder that my new collection MONUMENTS IN DARKNESS is available in paperback and e-book! I think it contains some of my very best short work, and I'm extremely proud. Its publication also marked my 25th anniversary as a professionally published author. I hope you'll give it a read!

One of my favorite actors that I will watch in everything is Mark Strong.

Hostess have finally brought Suzy-Q's back, and my life is complete.

Reminder: In light of Bad Bunny's Superbowl performance spotlighting Latino culture, here's a hefty list of Latino speculative fiction authors I curated if anyone wants to take a gander and read some phenomenal work. Much love to all! go.bsky.app/6BAmgpi

The breaking point is nigh. Trump is going to fall in the face of revelations of his Epstein connection.

My two favorite times of day: Bug wakes me up and lays on my chest for a few minutes, then makes biscuits there, followed by delicious coffee. My second is lying in bed at night reading and feeling the Ambien kick in. Ah, the simple pleasures.

Four Haitian women, recently deported from Puerto Rico following immigration enforcement actions, were discovered decapitated. At least 18 Haitian deportees from the U.S. have now been murdered upon return. Deporting these people means condemning them to death. www.latintimes.com/four-haitian...
