Attending Fantastic Fest this weekend? Stop by the Highball on Monday from 11am-4pm for the GHOULISH BOOK FAIR! Spooky book vendors! Chaotic live readings! See ya there, ghouls!

The Trump administration has tied new requirements to election security grants. Some states told NPR they're passing on the grants as a result.

This is the greatest summation of Frankenstein I have ever seen.

I've always been sceptical of 'sunlight is the best disinfectant', but I looked it up and apparently it is healthier to hang laundry outside. So maybe that is what we should do with fascists.

One of my most favorite pictures I've ever taken. Alpine, Texas, six years ago today.

Have you ever wanted to kill a billionaire? Now you can... in fiction! Hire me to write a scene of you murdering a billionaire in an outrageous way For $40, I choose how you kill them For $60, you choose how you kill them I've got FIVE billionaire murder slaughts open this month 1/2

Today in a nutshell...

My daily dilemma.

Ya know, I'm starting to get a real "Caligula conquering the beach" vibe from this president.

The bad thing about following so many authors and artists and Creatives is knowing I will never have enough time nor money for all the Things I'd like to own & people I'd like to support

We are very far over the cliff here folks

No thank you

Without federal funding, public media — and the truth-telling, community-connecting role it plays — is at risk. Local stations may vanish. Millions could lose trusted news and vital information. If you are ready to join the fight for journalism, donate now: n.pr/458sOhq

Every time I look at the news, I'm somehow even more shocked and saddened at the audacity and complicity of this absolute shit stain of a presidential administration. Today is no different.

The title may read "THE MOST BORING VIDEO EVER MADE," but shit like this is my JAM.

Fuck this administration.

Wow, jumped on Bluesky and lo and behold, I have a bunch of new followers! Welcome, y'all! I haven't been super active on here lately, but I must be doing SOMETHING right, so I appreciate the follows. I hope you get something out of my occasional ramblings on here.

Happy Pride Month!!!

NEW: PublicSquare, a website that lets you search for businesses in your community that explicitly want you to know they endorse Trump/MAGA values, is backfiring as people use it to boycott those businesses. www.huffpost.com/entry/public...

It’s time, Canada. Vote #CanadaStrong.

You're fine. You're just in the beautiful bullshit ass journey part or something

I yearn to live in this sonic haze And drape my body in its aural bliss, To hide myself behind the parapets Of this sublime, discordant harmony, Consuming, open-throated, guttural, A movement, an ebb and flow, a sedative, Antecedent to compound emotions... The key change sets my wilted soul ablaze.

Movie you’ve watched more than six times using gifs. (“Hard mode” no Star Wars, Star Trek, or LOTR)

i often see things that make me say "this is the most Boston thing I have ever seen in my life" but i think this one might have swept them all

OR you could read these Black vampire novels: The Gilda Stories by Jewelle Gomez Immortal Dark by Tigest Girma This Ravenous Fate by Hayley Dennings House of Hunger by Alexis Henderson. Just a thought. #booksky #blackbooksky 📚💙 📚🏳️‍🌈 📚🤎

I feel this so very much and also simultaneously feel like one way we're going to get through all of this is to have artists and writers and musicians chucking in to create space for others to experience joy and rest for a moment before going out to fight again in the world. Creation is resistance.

Excited to see where all this goes!

I could use some help spreading the word. My new little book is about two sisters who hunt down killers and collect body parts while complicating their lives with volatile magics, bizarre visions, and a mysterious mouth in the wall. Think Junji Ito meets Little Women. ghoulish.rip/product/fami...

Remember that scene in the first TMNT movie when the Turtles and Foot clan are fighting and briefly stop when Casey breaks down the door? And Michelangelo catches his breath and then screams “Now what?!?” That has been me everyday this week whenever I get a news alert.

Guilty as charged 😅

I’ve been anxious w/ fascism & a book launch - my first! - but bluesky has been unexpected solace. When I am so fried that I just comfort-meme, you deal. Or you spend hours talking & joking & gif’ing around. Or you all chat together while I snooze. Or: 😶‍🌫️😶‍🌫️😶‍🌫️ It’s cozy! youtu.be/xOuxVDgV6CY

I have NEVER felt a meme so hard in my life, except it's about Dungeons & Dragons and Whiskey. Otherwise, zero notes.

Final vote tally shows that @maloneforsenate.bsky.social won by 455 votes. Every. Vote. Matters.

If you see this, requote with a game gif you can immediately hear 🎮🕹️🎶🔊

Eight recalls in two years. These "trucks" are comically inept at being trucks.

I dunno. My book back bio is def the second critter. 😆

I challenge anyone to come up with a more "right" wrong answer

BREAKING: A court overturned Ohio's ban on gender-affirming care for transgender youth. This is a critical victory for trans rights.
