The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy. She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.

I quite like Ari Aster the director. Not a big fan of Ari Aster the writer. I wish he would work on someone else’s script.

gofund.me/b6a2db6b1 Just wanted to post again in case anyone is able to give something - I know it’s a tough time for everyone right now. ❤️❤️❤️

My joy at being able to pull thru my last hospital visit has been replaced by the anxiety that it would've been cheaper to die. Just throwing this out there hoping for a miracle. I've got PayPal or cash app too.

Since the New Year is all about “starts,” I thought it would be fun to spotlight some horror directorial debuts you can stream on Tubi right now: from-the-desk-of-the-horror-chick.ghost.io/tubi-terrors... Shares and/or subs would be greatly appreciated!! Cheers! 🖤

#NowWatching: KISS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN (2025)

Stop saying that all Schumer and Jeffries ever do is write strongly worded letters. Bullshit. They're not strongly worded at all.

Because I ended up working thru a bunch of my "break," I didn't get to do hardly anything I wanted to get done, including celebrating my work in 2025. In any case, I just wanted to share my site as I'd love some new subs (free & paid!) for the new year: from-the-desk-of-the-horror-chick.ghost.io

#NowWatching: SORRY, BABY (2025)

No one will ever be accountable for any of this.

Remember how appalled we all were in 2022 when Russia completely unprovoked attacked Ukraine? That is what we’re doing tonight with Venezuela. We are the bad guys here. Everyone who supports this is supporting unprovoked murder. Fuck every last one of them

Snow, those little slices of death— How I loathe them.

243. You Rang (podcast, 2025-present) You Rang is another podcast I've really been enjoying this year. Come for the Addams Family episode analyses, stay for the discussions about living life as a human being. All in all, a very fun and thoughtful show.

It's here! The 2025 Action Cinema recap! An overview of the year's most interesting action films. Everything from Ne Zha 2 and Avatar 3 to Last Bullet, Kantara and The Prosecutor, to smaller gems like The Forbidden City, Tatsujin Warriors, and many more! youtu.be/74ckedulSgo

Stood in a line behind Paul Rudd while he peed at a urinal. (The line was for the urinal, not him)

Happy birthday to @weinbergs.bsky.social — a true mensch that constantly inspires and informs just by being himself. He’s hilarious, brilliant, kind, and talented and deserves a wonderful day. Long may he reign!!!

Share a great female villain 🎬

For your holiday ambiance, I've made a hypnotic yule log fireplace with ultra slow motion macro footage of flames stretching & warping like liquid as fire reacts with calcium chloride & barium. This is real fire I filmed, not CGI or AI. 10hrs, 4K, crackling sounds, no music, no ads. Happy holidays!

#NowWatching: AVATAR: FIRE AND ASH (2025)

James Ransone’s performances were always a highlight of every project he did. Such sensitivity combined with a sort of wild energy that made every character he played feel truly alive: incredibly flawed, yet possessing some sort of quiet (and not so quiet) strength. He will be missed. So it goes.

My friend won The Letter Review Prize for Nonfiction with this piece. Please read/share it! letterreview.com/hungry-anima...

Why not? Hit it, SOUTHLAND TALES!

Also, I know there are more important things going on, but I just wanted to mention my site since it's been a while. My new goal is to hit 375 subscribers before the end of the year & I'm 6 away from that. Eek! Free & paid subs are available: from-the-desk-of-the-horror-chick.ghost.io

It's done.

Black women film critics and writers have a hard enough time in this space doing their actual jobs. I’m so proud of my friend for speaking up and loudly about her experience working for this horror outlet. Note: though she’s offering this for free, support her and add funds while you’re there.

New episode. New blogpost! You can find both together right here! addamsfamilypod.blogspot.com/2025/12/prog...

Happiest of birthdays to @stunninggun.bsky.social! May her reign be violent, exciting, and endless! Qapla’!

I’ve been working on this one for a minute. With Criterion releasing DAVID BYRNE’S AMERICAN UTOPIA, for @letterboxd.social I surveyed Spike Lee’s rich history as a musical director. Read: letterboxd.com/journal/spik...

New Episode! @vriess.bsky.social tells us about nude watching Addams, the duo talk about boundaries, giving, funerals, Bob Barker, J-Horror, the Addams Family News Channel, and more! youtu.be/eYmDI4-fdQA?...

Hey journo friends, @motherjones.com is hiring a breaking news reporter, so if you know anyone talented who is looking, pls pass it along.

Folks, we are so incredibly grateful that you all helped us reach our goal here. We cannot thank you enough. We are, however, keeping this GFM open because we do need some help with extra Xmas cash. So if you're feeling extra charitable, don't hesitate! TYVM!!!

Happiest of birthdays to @kolleencarney.bsky.social ! Long may she reign!!!

I can’t wait to piss on Trump’s grave. I know there’ll be a line, but I’ll happily stand in queue for that. He remains the worst of us.

the good that you do persists in this world

Rob Reiner was an incredible actor and amazing director. He managed to constantly catch lightning in a bottle with his films. He also stayed a loud and proud voice for good causes. So it goes.

I did my best to try and celebrate ANNA AND THE APOCALYPSE since it is the holiday season & I will take any opportunity I can get to talk about this film. from-the-desk-of-the-horror-chick.ghost.io/harmonies-he... Shares & subs would be greatly appreciated. Cheers y’all! 🖤

Hey, this is tonight! Join us for a stream that'll leave you filled with Christmas joy and confusion! Starting at 7 central, and significantly more Night Flighty than usual!

I spoke with Any Lucía López Belloza, the Babson College student who was on her way to surprise her family for Thanksgiving when ICE deported her. "My 5-year-old sister still believes that I might go home for Christmas," she tells me. www.thecut.com/article/any-...

Peter Greene was a fantastic actor who always brought an interesting mix of a sense of menace with a sort of vulnerability to his roles—which made for an intriguing villain in THE MASK, JUDGEMENT NIGHT, PERMANENT MIDNIGHT, THE USUAL SUSPECTS, PULP FICTION, and more. He will be missed. So it goes.

with the return of an excellent guest: @juliacmarchese.bsky.social, who chose a 1985 obscurity. thank you patrons and @effinbirds.com.

Score!
