Those guardian grotesques who live high on churches often seem closer to God than we who look up at them. Whether Woodwose or Maned-man, monsters living wild in our imaginations are wise to the terror which is man. Their grimaces show they know us well. – #CLNolan

Our buildings become landmarks, become posts around which folklore is tied. Access to underground reservoir is transformed into the gateway to a secret tunnel system, a prison for a demon defeated by circles. Why? Because stories need a place to live. – Dr. M. Benn #Folklore

Widely applicable.

By pure coincidence team member @effjayem.bsky.social was at the @britishlibrary.bsky.social yesterday and checked out the Fairytale exhibition.

My favorite Sam Neil fact will always be that he designed a future Australian flag that replaces the union jack with the aboriginal flag for Event Horizon and insisted the film use it.

Because their goalies think you can save by faith alone.

It can't be denied that England and Argentina have beef

We will miss Bonnie Tyler ❤️🔥

I once tweeted that it was apparently modelled on the Jedi Library from Star Wars and A LOT of people didn’t get the joke

Congratulations to Britain on becoming the kind of country where the police have to walk on eggshells when talking about a murder case, because one false move could set off a week of fascist rioting by the vicious far right swine our whole system is increasingly designed to please and impress.

And hey if you're in the Glasgow area this week, why not come along to Waterstones on Tuesday and hear me talk about it and my new collection, Hand-Me-Downs, in the wonderful company of @rhiannonagrist.bsky.social and @beckywojturska.bsky.social ?

My dad was in a supermarket near the Yorkshire-Nottinghamshire border and a woman said to him, "Hey, LAD, reach me two of them pies down, would yer?" After grabbing the pies my dad said he was 75 so wasn't technically much of a lad any more. "Yeah, but I'm 85," she replied. "So YER A LAD TO ME."

This cover recalls my teenage thrill of a seeing a new Heinlein novel in NEL paperback.

Great interview in Buzz Magazine with our very own @rhiannonagrist.bsky.social ahead of the release of her Scottish cottagegore psychological horror debut next week! Preorder HOME SICK: geni.us/homesick www.buzzmag.co.uk/rhiannon-gri...

Remember how it took the press literally six weeks to tank Boris Johnson to hated public enemy status simply by noticing what Johnson is and how he behaves? This is like that: Farage has become embarrassing and surplus to requirements, so now he has to go.

We could get apologies daily for the next year and we’ll still live in a country where the political class and the press united for a decade to tell the public, in the most insanely intense fashion, that the far right’s craziest and most inflammatory accusations against the left are correct and true
