in many ways all of politics, finance, buisness exist specifically to create rape islands for rich men. Everything else is the process by which ppl like Musk, Epstein and Trump are the goal

“there are Epsteins everywhere for those with eyes to see.” literally ask any woman you know. most of us yelled about it in 2017, when it seemed possible for a brief moment that it actually mattered.

“There are Epsteins everywhere for those with eyes to see”

Wrote about Epstein, the misogynistic culture that protected him, and the banality of evil when it comes to harming women and children. He was not a unique man. open.substack.com/pub/houseofm...

I'm old enough to remember when "moral relativism" was an criticism rightwing people used about leftwing people

Huge scoop from Ed, who had several years of financial reports leaked to him. OpenAI has been over-reporting their revenue. The company is even less profitable than we knew.

Exclusive: Based on documents viewed by this newsletter, OpenAI spent over $12.4 billion on inference from 2024 to September 2025. As part of its Microsoft revenue share, it sent $493.8m in 2024/$865.8m Jan-Sep 2025, implying lower revenues than previously reported. www.wheresyoured.at/oai_docs/

I know this stuff is funny but it makes me sad as shit. How much money and resources that could actually help people are being burned on stupid over-evaluations like this?

You *could* make this work if you let Bond movies be campy, silly romps again but you are all cowards

This is fun but what's more fun is he reads out "I, as [state your name]"

This piece moved me. I promise it's not only about Zohran Mamdani, there's so much in there that made me feel seen. It's about being scared of being yourself and not doing the things you need to do to let it happen, and that rippling through communities.

I've found that hope tends to disempower me, but I think I found something better.

open.substack.com/pub/houseofm... Wrote about Zohran, being burned too many times to feel hopeful, and how moving through that can lead to something more sustainable: faith.

"should women work" but it really means "should men have to ever answer to or even encounter women who are not their wives, offspring, and/or other servile figures"

do not learn about the phone and its inhabitants. do not keep track of all the different characters, the politicians, the chit chatters who talk about the politicians. learn about metals instead. their properties, their strengths, their stats. control metals and you control fate

Teen Vogue gave me my start, was the first publication to profile me, and was one of the first places to publish my writing. I know so many witches and weirdos who got similar support from TV, and it's really sad to see it get gutted.

There are really people on god's green earth who think JD Vance will be better than Trump

Grokipedia, NFTs, Cryptocurrency...so many ugly names and concepts confront me against my will daily

I'll be working out of here for the next week if anyone needs to get ahold of me:

Most Leo thing about me is if you hate me I feel bad for you because you miss out on being my friend, but if you hate someone I love I will raise armies of the dead against you.

That's because it's an aesthetic movement, their aesthetics are just trashy

I know this is really besides the point but as someone who used to be really into Norse mythology and history, it's really sad how little you can really engage with that stuff now

Later this month, I'll be teaching a class on folk horror and occultism. I opened up some of my research notes and turned it into this piece: open.substack.com/pub/houseofm...

@citymystic.bsky.social is teaching this cool class series & you should consider taking it because, my god, do a lot of people try & talk about folk horror & the witch in media without actually being long-term serious practitioners in addition to scholars. sarah lyons is both! you can trust her!

Something to know about me is I love blocking people and will do it at a moment's notice

Riding your bike or scooter on the sidewalk is degenerate, anti-social behavior.

I see no path to profitability for Anthropic, which means agreeing to fund it further is committing to an eternal money pit. Raising prices on its enterprise customers is a horrible but inevitable consequences of the inherent unprofitably of Large Language Models. www.wheresyoured.at/costs/

Love people credulously interacting with this. I know it was a stupid obvious fake! I want to know why the Mexican government did it!

There are far more pressing issues in the world right now but someday when the dust settles I would like to know what this was about:

I feel entitled to compensation after hearing the lyric "He ah-matized me and opened my eyes, Redwood tree, it ain't hard to see, His love was the key that opened my thighs"

working on a new unified theory of american reality i'm calling "everyone is twelve now"

I think we owe Andrea Dworkin a bit of an apology tbh

Happy first day of Halloween! If you want to support indie horror this October, check out my movie The Woods. We shot this baby for under 100k, in less than two weeks, and I had never directed anything before! This was real indie cinema and I'm so proud of our team www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4QA...

Really never been a big fan of standup comedy, video games, or YouTube "debate" porn, and boy what a time for my passive instincts to be right.

pete hegseth, who you will recall has been accused of domestic abuse and sexual assault, has announced a new policy by which you cannot file anonymous complaints of mistreatment. sex criminal solidarity.

When the Roman Empire fell it became a church. When the British Empire fell it became a bank. When the American Empire falls it will become a casino.

This is really really good

I’ve been thinking about this piece all day. An incredible reflection on sensorial pleasure and our digital lives:

I think this is why I feel most at peace with my hands in the dirt. It also aligns with something that’s been very helpful for me: If you’re trying to stop doing something, don’t just take it away. *Replace* it with something that fills the same need, but hopefully better.

This was fantastic. We say “touch grass” like a curse on someone, when really the digital realm has become a place to separate us from the sensual (and I’d argue the emotional) connection we have with the world around us and those closest to us

“What people want to replace you with is what they think you already are. If [they] want to replace you with a robot or an AI model, that’s because they already see you and what you do as simply the workings of a machine with far too many bugs.” Another banger from @citymystic.bsky.social.

open.substack.com/pub/houseofm... Wrote about the radical act of returning to one's body in a digital age designed to detach us from them.

If you believe in compromising on abortion you don't think women are really people. Hope that helps!!!

Kirk funeral happening the same day as an eclipse...interesting!

The idea of running anti-abortion Democrats is sickening to me. That means killing women! That is what that means!
