From my WIP… He held her from behind, pressing the switchblade to her neck until beads of blood appeared. “I could slash your throat.” Her chuckle irritated him. “Do it, then.” She surprised him by grabbing the knife by the blade, slicing open her palm without flinching.The blade snicked closed.

I was in the vicinity of a book store... #booksky 📚🪐 📚💙

Is it just a thing now to call a book ‘a novella’ if it’s an in-between book? Like I’m reading a series (it’s amazing) and it’s getting a book 3.5 ‘novella’ that’s 384 pages. That’s not a novella, that’s nearly a chonky novel lmao.

I truly miss all my shopgirl jobs - pure nostalgia for a time that’s long gone. I only miss them around the holidays because there’s NOTHING like the malls around that time of year. The over-the-top decorations, the food court holiday menus, the mall heating system - yeah, that’s still pretty dope.

Does anyone else have series they've bought more than one book of but like each book is a different format? Like one ebook, one hardcopy, one audiobook, etc 😂

If you think about it: the fact that Buzz Lightyear wakes up believing he’s on a space mission to save the planet and help everyone, only to learn that he’s a toy, and all his memories are a lie, kinda makes Toy Story a horror movie.

I usually avoid anything with the Disney label like the plague that it represents, but in a few rare occasions, such as Gargoyles or Tron, even I give in. This is one of these occasions. Cheesy and flawed, sure, but a good cast. Tim Curry is irresistible, as always. #filmsky #threemusketeers

Hm. I wonder when he went from just musing to simple plan-dom to creating an actual playbook, based on these points of propaganda. I wish a DeLorean trip back could fix that. And the current mess.

ICE killed a Chicago area man last week. His name was Silverio Villegas-Gonzalez. He wasn't "the worst of the worst." He was a cook. ICE hopes we'll forget about him. We won't.

It’s Sunday, so can I get an amen?

I appreciate her decision to reject the diminutive "gonnette" to embrace gooner as a gender neutral term

An interesting film as it's nearly a 2-hander, with only one other character of any consequence. It means there's a real focus on the two leads. The film had a nice mix of horror and some (slight) comedic elements which kept it from being too dour.

Just hanging out here, judging all your knights.

I’m not sure how I feel about what I got done today. Most of it was re-rendering some messy anatomy and shaping him a little more. Then I got impatient and started on the sky with no plan in place… WIP. Graphite and charcoal on toned paper. 11”x14”.

Tyler Robinson will be out of the news by Monday. Right wing which dominates media and politics and power is already gaslighting their audience and still blaming "the left." You can't shame shameless people who are committed to an extremist authoritarian project.
