Over at @sawasteland.bsky.social we're celebrating our anniversary with lists of our 100 favorite movies. Today is my turn in the barrel, so feel free to stop by and make fun of my choices! (You love UHF too, don't even.) screenagewasteland.com/100-favorite...

Seeing the headline "Vast Hidden Structure Hidden Beneath Antarctica" sets my Lovecraft sense tingling. Leave it to Nature to take the fun "Mountains of Madness" feel out of it. (In a detailed and technical way.) www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Post an album you’ve listened to 100 times. There are actually quite a few, but this was the first one to pop into my head. I love the whole album, but it was also the only place to hear "I Go Swimming," which is one of the most unapologetically upbeat songs I've ever enjoyed.

Back to back weeks on the @sawasteland.bsky.social Canon podcast! This week I join @rafstitt.bsky.social and @val-more.bsky.social to talk about a classic none of us had seen before. The French Connection! www.youtube.com/watch?v=l2Eu...

After many months (years?) I'm trying to get back to drawing. So here's the first #monstersketchmonday in a long time. Was just in the mood to noodle on Pumpkinhead today. Will keep working on it and hopefully have the finished illo next week.

My review of The Backrooms is now up at ScreenAge Wasteland! I probably ramble on more than I need to - which is my usual method. screenagewasteland.com/the-backroom...

The @sawasteland.bsky.social Canon Podcast is back, and this week I got to join @rafstitt.bsky.social for a discussion of the Dirty Dozen! Neither of us cried at the end, but it was close. www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLo3...

There was a time in my life where I watched a ton of gory Japanese movies, like Tokyo Gore Police and the Meatball Machine movies. Yoshihiro Nishimura was a big reason why those were so fun (and gory), and it's weird he's passed away at 59. Maybe time to dig out Helldriver and watch it again.

Everything's on fire, but I grasp for the little things to enjoy. Like listening to Peter Gabriel's SO all day, because it came out... Dammit, 40 years ago? Holy carp.

My brother Jeff will be at the Pine State Expo this weekend, sketchin' and... uh, kvetchin'? Anyway, I'll be at the table providing moral support, mostly. Swing by and say hi!
