The first cut of THE VAMPIRES OF NEW ORLEANS is complete! It’s going to be almost 3 hours long, lol

Happening now!

Tomorrow at 2:30pm PST, join @atunshei.bsky.social and I while we watch through the third of Matt Walsh's terrible attempts at doing history live on twitch.tv/cynicalhisto...

in this video in like 4 different ways and I hate that

ATTENTION: Atun-Shei Films and @themorbidzoo.bsky.social are now EXCLUSIVELY channels about dinosaurs. No, we will not be taking questions at this time. youtu.be/CEUN8Y9ajeA

Italian ice in a vodka cocktail is PERFECT on a hot summer day.

AI is turning you into a bad writer, even if you don't use AI. youtu.be/45SdSeukfsA?...

Outlander ended tonight. Though it was only really good for the first two seasons, it was still one of the biggest shows on TV — and I’m not seeing anyone online talking about it 🤔

Thanks for the rec, ABK! Watching the first episode and laughing my ass off. Atun Shei fans, Widow’s Bay is extremely your shit

Half of tropical forests have been lost, mostly for beef, driving biodiversity loss. If allowed to naturally regenerate, >90% of abundance & diversity returns & ~75% similarity to old-growth forest within 30yrs. Invasive pasture grasses prevented faster recovery. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Cannibals? who is not a cannibal?

New England secession can’t come fast enough Back me up @miniminuteman.bsky.social

Anti-AI folks: why does everyone around me continue to do this thing that is obviously immoral and bad for everyone??? Are people really that apathetic and selfish??? Vegans:

Finally saw Wuthering Heights

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Some folks in the replies are saying this is fake news. if so, that's totally my bad. But your car definitely still spies on you and sells your data www.eff.org/deeplinks/20...

This monologue is the best discussion against the dangers of AI and its vampirism I've ever seen. youtu.be/v0VZvMmelN4?...

Still amazing to me that there are people who cross post on here who act like twitter hasn't fundamentally changed in a way that makes it morally bankrupt to keep posting on it. Just stop using the nazi kiddie porn site what the fuck are you doing.

Vampire movies can be creepy, sexy, and fun... they're rarely legitimately frightening. But there are scenes in The Vampires of New Orleans that make the hairs stand up on the back of my neck every time I play them back. Y'all have no idea how much this movie's gonna blow your socks off.

Can someone explain to me why the fuck the Elgin Marbles are still at the British Museum?

Etsy just went fur-free thanks to the efforts of grassroots activists, yet another major victory in the fight to destroy the fur industry, which has a disgusting legacy of colonialism and continues to perpetrate egregious animal cruelty and environmental destruction.

The Daily Wire, a right-wing media farm propped up by fossil fuel money, wants you to think that the transatlantic slave trade was not that bad. Don't fall for it. youtu.be/wvXR8HA423c

Dr. Ian Malcolm is a Byronic hero

A billionaire can get what they want with one donation to a political party. The rest of us must fight for years to get even the most basic rights recognised. Money destroys democracy, more than any other cause. The first step towards a better world is to stop the rich buying political outcomes.

For me, the humiliating theater of post-9/11 TSA security has always been a sign of our increasingly authoritarian times. We shouldn’t allow ICE goons to erode our dignity and liberty any further. Yet another reason to take the train rather than fly

“[Netanyahu] said he'd been waiting 40 years for an American president to join him in attacking Iran and in Donald Trump, he finally found somebody stupid enough and reckless enough to actually do it.” Sen. @vanhollen.senate.gov explains why the Iran war is actually about Israel.

Early this morning I was a guest on a stream hosted by the incomparable Pete Kelly from History Time talking about some excellent historical fiction films. Enjoy! www.youtube.com/live/CSQgzFx...

We just wrapped principal photography on our next film, THE VAMPIRES OF NEW ORLEANS. Check out a bunch of behind the scenes stills and rough cut clips over on my Patreon! www.patreon.com/posts/and-th...

Can we dress Andrew up like this for his trial?

"There is only one thing in the world worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about." – Oscar Wilde

We often don't think about how long the transition from hunter-gatherer life to what we now call "civilization" was. The invention of writing is closer to 2026 than it is to the beginning of the Agricultural Revolution.

A friend of mine just told me, “The right pretends at Puritanism but is secretly perverted. The left plays at perversion but is secretly puritanical.” Too fucking real, man.

Nuremberg trials for ICE is the moderate position

Nuance is not the same thing as moral complexity.

Post-Avatar depression has me reaching for my phantom kuru to make tsaheylu with my e-bike

I spent my late December in godly labor (as should you) making this video, where I answer your questions about time travel, mental health during the Civil War, environmentalism, my family heritage, and whether or not history can be "apolitical." youtu.be/m3yiEuyuwOs

A manbo (Vodou priestess) was just murdered in Haiti by a mob that accused her of being a loupgarou, understood in the Caribbean as a vampire/witch-like creature. Horrible. lemidiinfo.com/justice-popu...

It’s insane that the far-right is trying to rehabilitate the Crusades because they were objectively the most pathetic campaigns in the history of warfare. The first was a cannibalistic rampage, the second was a miserable failure, the third was a war crime, and the fourth didn’t even get there.

Guess we’re headed to the remorseless hyper-capitalist Avatar future huh

"Interventions in the sex lives of animals are so intrusive and ubiquitous that..bestiality laws had to be rewritten to include explicit exceptions for farmers." love this piece by @jandutkiewicz.bsky.social & Gabe newrepublic.com/article/2036...

I’ve watched Piers Morgan run roughshod over vegans, human rights activists, and leftists a hundred times. But he just let Nick Fuentes spew poison on his platform for 2 hours, his only response to bad-faith Nazi propaganda flaccid hand-wringing and apologies for interrupting.
