"...The movie had a sweaty quality to it; everything was just hot and uncomfortable, even the actors. In most movies, you want your stars to look their best, but here it really felt like they were all in need of long, cold showers and a trip to the local spa..." Read my article for Daily Dead:

Chewing nicotine gum doesn't make you want to vape less, it just makes you addicted to gum, which is almost as embarrassing

When I was a kid there were no private phone calls, there was an eight foot leash in the middle of the kitchen where everyone got to viciously judge you.

My take on MTG is that she was privy to some confidential information about the president or the Epstein investigation itself, she has seen the writing on the wall, and she knows that once it comes out it will be devastatingly criminal. She is now positioning herself to try to escape the fallout.

I did not think I would wake up today and agree with MTG on a talking point- let alone on several. What timeline is this?

When I was a kid there was no such thing as an iPhone, if we got bored we would walk down abandoned railroad tracks and eat strange berries; no one cared if we lived or died back then.

Sleeping in the same bed as my new husband has been difficult. Not because he snores or moves around a lot but because if I accidentally nudge him when he hasn't fallen asleep yet, he begins to quote Katy Perry lyrics at me.

Iāve been in Canada since October 11th. In that time Iāve tried more good food, had more good times, and felt more at ease with life, than I ever have before. Also I married my best friend and started posting about sappy things. But Iām still dark and mysterious- horror is the way and all that.

People always tell you that things are different after marriage and I thought I knew what that meant so I didn't worry about it but I've been married for two days now and I'm not really sure what to do about the tentacles.

I met my husband on Twitter when I began posting years ago. The first time we talked, he was messaging me to say he'd been wrongly accused of stealing one of my jokes. We agreed his joke was different enough. But in a way... the person who said he stole my lemon joke is responsible for my marriage.

The hardest part of eloping was keeping it a secret while having a ton of very cringe post ideas. I wanted to post "I don't know if I'm more excited for the new Animal Crossing update or how I'm literally getting married tomorrow." But I couldn't. Sometimes, love requires sacrifice, etc.

Always read the Halloween candy before you put it in your mouth. It might not be a gummie. It might be an artificially flavored, jelly filled marshmallow.

theyāre quiet; they know they arenāt wanted. it doesnāt stop them checking handles and windows. they know itās warm in here. they can feel our blood. the chill autumn air scatters them up from the soft sighing loam to whisper down the darkened alley. I wonder if you remembered to lock your back door

Iāll be the first to admit that thereāre a lot of awful horror movies- I have to watch them all. But sometimes, even the bad ones can fill a hole if they are so bad they become good again. Straight camp, even if by accident, is never a bad thing.

It's a difficult time to be a horror movie critic trying to find new folks to follow online because it's October. What if I follow someone back and their account is only seasonally spooky? Temporarily terrifying? Fleetingly frightening? Sends a shiver down my spine just thinking about it.

If you ever come upon an ancient tome and the only words on the cover you can decipher are variations of "evil" and "beware," open that bad boy up to any page and start reading whatever text you find aloud. What's the worst that can happen?
