MACBETH (squinting at the recaptcha on his monitor): Is this a dagger which I see before me?

Random fact: Belphegor’s Prime, 1000000000000066600000000000001, is a palindromic prime number that has 666 (the number of the Beast) in the middle, with 13 zeroes on either side of it.

All hail the glow cloud. ⛅️

Watching The House by the Cemetery. 1981 Italian horror: brooding looks, enigmatic portents, brutal gore, annoying children.

Happy Halloween the 5th! I think this is flash fiction, but the author tells me it’s a narrative prose poem. bedriegerjunction.com/blog/2025/10...

Currently reading: Feral & Hysterical: Mother Horror's Ultimate Reading Guide to Dark and Disturbing Fiction by Women, by Sadie Hartmann. I’ve started a spreadsheet, with books she writes about categorized as “Not for me,” “Maybe for me,” “Probably for me,” “Must read,” and “Have read.”

You know what, fair play to Scooby Doo villains. They walk into a room dressed as a ghost, see a talking dog on its hind legs making the world’s biggest sandwich and somehow manage to stay in character.

It’s finally here!

Surely this is just a horror poem and not a political allegory. bedriegerjunction.com/blog/2025/09...

🖤 Very proud to have had my short horror pieces featured by tiny frights! 🖤 ⛸️ This is a new nonet - posted for old time's sake.

Sept 18, 2025, I'll read from "Always Haunted: Hallowe'en Poems" with a fine group of authors. Sign up for our free event + give-aways! @authorterribruce.bsky.social @divinationsmag.bsky.social @the-engine-idling.bsky.social @mgliterary.bsky.social www.eventbrite.com/o/strong-wom...

I make music and sell it on Bandcamp I do instrumentals that combine my love of EBM, synth pop, postpunk, metal, industrial, horror movie soundtracks, techno, krautrock, Minneapolis funk, and baroque classical, plus 100 other things. Please consider buying some this Bandcamp Friday (today!)

I think, in light of all the rotten people out there spreading terf nonsense, today would be a good day to support trans creators. Trans folk, please add your links to this thread for books or crafts or whatever you do!

If you’ve ever worried whether art matters. It does.

I tried to watch Alien Earth, but got too frustrated trying to read all that text in pink letters on a green background.

Got copies of the 2025 Rhysling Anthology, which has my Rhysling-nominated poems, "Transhumanist Classroom," & "A Black Hole is a Melting Pot That Will Make Us Whole;" & the 2025 Dwar Star Awards Antho where you can find my Dwarf Star-nominated poem, "Perish and Live Forever."

Wednesday Season 2 Episode 1 has the title character traveling to Kansas City, Missouri, in pursuit of a serial killer. As a lifelong resident of KCMO, I have to say that the place she winds up looks more like Fairway, Kansas.

Useful to know. (But no horror filter?)

My friend Dani Finn just wrote a story inspired about their unfair bsky suspension. The cover alone is already sending me. danifinn.itch.io/under-cerule...

Quote this with a book you read way too young that explains why you are the way you are. Les Chants de Maldoror (New Directions English translation), when I was around 13 years old, give or take a year.

Dishonor before death, but lunch before either.

Counterpoint: There is has never been a more urgent time to write a book. Technofascism is, among other things, an attempt to capture and enclose literature and literacy. Print is a rent strike.
