Been getting a lot of mileage out of Simone Weil lately

I love that The Iliad begins with the girls fighting. Achilles tore Agamemnon up here tho fr

I have some writing in this about Cronenberg's The Brood, a great Canadian film where the director (figuratively) shows you his whole ass!

I wish I could write the way Park Chan-Wook directs

Just picked up my ticket. Nice to have something like this in my backyard. Looking forward to meeting people!

Every time I hear The Unfaithful Servant by The Band, I'm reminded that it's the greatest song of all time

Only a few days left to download this free ebook of speculative stories!

Paying off my financed burrito with a three-way Epstein list parlay

"Ask Gemini," "Ask Meta AI," "Ask Grok," "Ask Apple Intelligence,"--How about you ask for forgiveness before it's too late

Can't believe the first on-screen blowjob I've ever seen on TV is from a Tim Robinson show

A conservative politician from my home town has been having a biblical meltdown on Facebook for being ousted by the party. Naturally, he's crying conspiracy, but his chat-gpt fueled crashout is bearing some humorous results

There are cathedrals everywhere

Since it's Neil Young's 80th birthday today, here's my favourite song of his. Like all the best Neil Young songs, it's very simple, but is transformed by these perfect descents into the minor key. It also just so happens to share a name with the best Pink Floyd song.

Happy There Is A Circulatory System Walking Through The Kitchen Day to all who celebrate.

Hal-Con! The @writersfedofns.bsky.social booth has free zines, writing prompts, and info about upcoming workshops for you! (I'll be here until 7 pm today and until noon tomorrow if you want to drop by and say hi!)

If anyone is at #HALCON this weekend, stop by the @writersfedofns.bsky.social table and grab their zine. I have a fun little story in it. I believe it will also be made freely available on their website for a limited time.

Every time a war criminal dies, I have a great day. Unfortunately, I need more data to parse if it's correlation or causation

Fuck the new Chat Pile rips

I have been sleeping on Interview with a Vampire, this shit is gas

Every year I tell myself I will plan ahead for a Halloween costume, and every year I watch the days pass by, costume-less until the final hour. I feel it happening again. How can we change our nature?

Been watching some Kino

Silent Hill f is a perfect example of what happens when a game isn't weighed down by established lore and canon; it can actually tell a new story. It's the anthology Silent Hill was meant to be before the series became increasingly obsessed with its past (and that damn cult) after Silent Hill 2.

One thing I adore about living in the Maritimes is how pronounced the seasons are. Even if it means some bitter winters

Buddy from back home in NB says the latest scandal is people drawing dicks on the moose signs:

I keep thinking it's Friday on Thursdays and it's inflicting psychic damage

Off the top of my head

Without even mentioning AI, Deleuze and Guattari's From Chaos to the Brain provides one of the most succinct rebukes of generative AI that I've ever come across

I was fortunate enough to visit the d'Orsay in Paris recently, and I really fell in love with Tissot's "The Dreamer (Summer Evening)". For me, it captures such a devastating kind of exhaustion and ennui.

The Wailing (2016) is a great companion piece to SILENT HILL f

Been reading Homer's Odyssey for the first time, and I find it very interesting how our concept of protagonists has changed. Nowadays, many scoff (or find it uninteresting) when a heroic character is overtly privileged. Yet, not only is Odysseus a king, but Athena essentially wipes his ass for him

Aftersun, NOPE, and Drive My Car would be in my running. Honorable mentions to TITANE, I Saw the TV Glow, and Another Round.

Not super far into Silent Hill f yet, but man I can't wait for that soundtrack to release.

The MJ Lenderman cover of "Just Be Simple" is obviously really good, but holy, this Horse Jumper of Love cover of "Blue Factory Flame" is insane

OK maybe Baudrillard was right about the Hyperreal

Real

Y'all ever just think about Mrs. Dalloway?

Google AI overview, while largely useless, does provide one a chuckle here and there

Working a 9-5 has really made me miss existing in the public sphere during the week. What does my favourite cafe feel like on a Tuesday afternoon? I'd love to know!

For a non-defunct recommendation, check out the new Shallowater album:

I hate discovering a band and then finding out they're defunct. This album rocks
