Waking up seeing Ken Paxton and Chip Roy coming in behind in their primaries, neither of them with the charisma to move to Fox News. I'll take what little victories I can.

The Enforcer: The Story of "Happy Jack" Burbridge By Jack Burbridge as told to Victoria Chandler 1980, Acclaimed Books Grabbed this on the strength of the cover in the Men's Adventure section and was surprised to find it was inspirational fiction. Jack Burbridge was a remorseless psychopathic

Commie Sex Trap by Roger Blake (John Felix Trimble) 1963, Boudoir Communists blackmail an American GI into photographing coded messages by holding his East German fiancée hostage. He schemes to rescue her, but mainly bangs every woman he meets.

Just outlined the Kung fu cyberpunk horror story I've had in my head for 30 years, which I think started life as a gurps campaign I couldn't get anyone to play. shocked I could remember all of it, been rolling this stuff around so long half my neural pathways are devoted to it.

It didn't start with it, but a lot of people in thesystem look at crime and mental health like Spider-Man No Way Home, with not great results. The view: all crime is caused by mental illness, which can be cured by a single external application of treatment, after which there will be no crime.

Got hung up on the origins of the term "cliffhanger", referring to the suspenseful ending of a serial installment requiring you to see the next installment to learn the fate of the hero, presumably from movie serials. I've seen an alternate explanation: that early serials were often filmed at the

Endured a presentation of using AI in my workplace. I'm more centrist than most on bluseky, and I can see where the evangelists went off the rails. It's like all the jokes with talking dogs: one person amazed the dog can talk, the other unimpressed by what the dog is saying. I ran my novel through

Bo Gritz, who grifted off the MIA fad of the 80s before hanging out with Christian Identity types, is dead.

Popped into a Spencer's. Last time I was in one they sold Farrah Fawcett nipple posters and banana dial phones. Now like a Hot Topic from 2002. They have the same "buy 1 tshirt get 1 %30 off" sign as HT, amazingly not owned by the same company.

Now watching War Dog (1987). Opens with a massacre with squibs so juicy they shorted out my tablet battery. Children and grandmas reduced to red paste. Swedish movie filmed in English but with accents between Fargo and the Swedish chef.

The salad guy is back. He's going to bridge a segue. People keep writing this guy checks because he has a sonorous voice and yells a lot.

Finding different takes on if/how much Bela Lugosi's Dead was tongue in cheek and if an entire subculture was built on a joke Not in terms of beliefs or politics, but strictly iverbal patterns, Peter Murphy's word salad sounds like if Trump had an art rock band Also, BLD is technically dub reggae

Little known fact: after it failed as a Crisco knockoff, the makers of Disco repurposed it as a worldwide dance phenomenon.

Bigfoot was a big part of the 70s paranormal boom. His furry reach extended to books, comics, The Six Million Dollar Man, and board games (two to be precise, from 1977 and 1987). The 80s version sees you trying to become Bigfoot's best friend for life. No, really!

Dans Simmons has passed away. He was an amazing author as well as a Book Marks contributor. May he rest in peace.

So anyone can go to the 5th dimension by saying their name backwards. Not sure that works.

490 words. Banter scene with absurdly named goth chicks. there's back and forth between 6 of them so pronouns aren't helping me out much. I'm already regretting having to copy and paste each time from my glossary. might just leave some names out when it's not important whose line it is. #amwriting

Mercedes McCambridge always gave the most unhinged line reads in CBS Radio Mystery Theater, and Silent Shock let's just go wild youtu.be/vNZrSm83sRE?...

Tried some SNFU. Every gutter punk in the 80s had this on a shirt or patch. Not what I was expecting.

Was worried this guy would keep his head down and sneak in a redemption act.I'd argue that being in a daily wire movie cancels you more than just sitting in a condo cashing residual checks.

Fred Crisman is another crank that pops up everywhere in conspiracy literature. Wrote letters to Amazing Stories supporting the Shaver Mystery, involved in Maury Island UFO sighting, involved in diploma mills, was subpoenaed by Garrison in the Clay Shaw trial, was accused of being one of the three

Looked up an old video mix tape I did and found it was officially credited in a Norwegian news article.

Wonder Woman just speedrunning through all the fetishes. "You know what you have to do, Steve! Put on your mother's wedding dress and crawl between my toes!"

3). Data inadvertently caused Andi to have an orgasm by mildly electrocuting her with a battery in the deleted leeches/well scene in the Goonies. (From the novelization)

A 🧵 of my favorite bits of useless junk knowledge from 20 years of digging in pop culture… 1). Stripe’s skull from Gremlins is on Ethan Hawke’s dresser in The Explorers.

Stumbled across a magazine from Swank from 2022. The first several pages were all NFTs and crypto. I shuddered at the broader implications, but realized the audience willing to exchange money for static pornographic pictures in 2022 is both small and a titch loose with their cash.
