I feel like we have the opportunity to turn David Lynch's quote into this moment's "Keep Calm and Carry On" and it's a far better rallying cry too.

#InterviewWithTheVampire #TheVampireLestat #iwtv Birthday Boy Lestat appears in a new teaser shared by @annerice.amc.com!

NEWS — The Oregon Department of Human Services has issued 100% of November SNAP benefits, per an alert on their website. I've received reports that the funds have already hit recipients' EBT accounts. www.oregon.gov/odhs/news/Pa...

Please share if you can! The algorithm doesn’t seem to love when I post about stories, so any help is appreciated :)

From the Guardian. Cartoonist Ella Baron.

AI and Crypto data centers need to be the first ones to lose power in a brown out.

Thank you, New York City. Together we made history. Now let’s get to work. transition2025.com

Turns out the No Kings marches and rallies *weren’t* just performative cringe.

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

[Exit Clown.]

Good things are possible and we don't have to settle.

PDX peeps! What are you doing next Monday? How about attending STORYTELLING AGAINST HUNGER, a 5-hour marathon of author readings & open mic fun that's a fundraiser for the @oregonfoodbank.bsky.social ???? Rose City Book Pub, 4 pm - 9pm. bit.ly/43i9s8D

One of our country's greatest war criminals just died, the president is arguing with himself about whether or not to let 40 million people starve, and there is an actual courtroom drama about a five dollar footlong. How are any of us supposed to maintain emotional regulation.

I drew this on my lunch break your excuses are fucking pathetic

Devil's night tradition complete! "It can't rain all the time, your tears won't fall forever." Words to live by.

We EASILY spend $500/mo on groceries and there's just the two of us. $4200/yr is not enough to buy groceries each month. These people are so fucking out of touch.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion. As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

Just a little more than a week before Halloween! Anybody reading any good horror novels? I just finished an ARC of @lauracranehill.bsky.social's upcoming WIFE SHAPED BODIES, and it was gorgeous!! www.simonandschuster.com/books/Wife-S...

TODAY 👀👀👀

DREAD MONDAYS is launching tomorrow! It’s well reviewed, and I’ve got a cute little corporate horror story in it called, “Such a Catch,” so check it out! I’d hit the launch party if it wasn’t a couple of thousand miles away from me. @whisperhousepress.bsky.social

My story "Closed for Maintenance" is in the Dread Mondays anthology launching THIS Saturday!! My short is gross, brutal, and pro-Union 🖤 Please check it out! And thank you @whisperhousepress.bsky.social #whisperhousepress #horror #costsofliving #DreadMondays #booklaunch #booksky #horrorsky

Book launch news! Tomorrow, DREAD MONDAYS will be published by @whisperhousepress.bsky.social. Among many other great stories will be my own KOSCHEI'S THREAD. It's a terrific anthology by a terrific editor 🖤🎃🧠🧟 #WhisperHousePress #Horror #CostsOfLiving #DreadMondays #BookLaunch #booksky #horrorsky

It’s the weekend and with my whole ass broken heart I say if you’ve ever liked a @realgdt.bsky.social movie you deserve to see FRANKENSTEIN in a theater before it ends it run and tickets sell out, you can find showtimes everywhere here, way more theaters than you might think. www.frankensteingdt.com

As a Libro.fm acolyte, it is my duty to inform you that audio that's purchased from your favorite indie bookseller sounds better and is also more emotionally fulfilling than the same audio purchased from a megacorp that's assisting the authoritarian federal regime.

I may be the exact target audience but uhhh Frankenstein (2025) is probably one of my top 3 films of all time. I've never been so literally stunned by a film. I've never been so swept up in a story I knew so well. A marvel in & for every sense. Such high expectations, all of them surpassed.

Told someone in a recent staff training that, if my supervisor told me tomorrow that I would be required to use AI in my job, I would immediately start planning my exit strategy. That I would quit my job rather than use AI. They were shocked. I was shocked that their response wasn't similar.

Wooooooooooow Fuck EA. Fuck this. So so so emphatically FUCK ALL OF THIS.

Senator @merkley.senate.gov has been speaking for over 4 hours about President Trump’s threats to our democracy. Watch here ⬇️

do you have a horror/horror-ish book coming out in 2026? tell me about it here, please! I'm working on the 2026 horror list and while I'm very good at sniffing out new books, I still miss things - help me help you! forms.gle/KxLNwVDVbbRS...

It's the book birthday of Apprehension and Red Star Hustle by @sentencebender.bsky.social and myself. We hope you enjoy both titles! Pick the two-in-one book up at your favorite bookseller, and we hope to see you on book tour. @sagapressbooks.bsky.social maryrobinettekowal.com/writing/appr...

ben daniels in interview with the vampire has convinced me that the only sane choice for any modern iterations of dr. frank-n-furter would have to be played by ben daniels

After a week of ridiculous Republican smears and Trump claiming that “very few people are going to be there,” you just made history. #NoKings

I just keep thinking about the first guy to put on the frog costume reading the news today and seeing frogs literally all over the world what a fucking thing, man that 25 year old did more for the country in a week than most of the NYT op-ed section in a lifetime

Here at the No Kings protest in Salem. A group of veterans and other locals play a song, singing “This land is made for you and me.”

The crowd estimate for Portland's No Kings protest is currently at 40,000. More photos to come but you can read our live updates here: www.oregonlive.com/portland/202...

Hell yes, Pittsburgh. Love Yinz. No Kings.

My favorite sign from the Tempe No Kings march this morning was one that simply read "FROGS TOGETHER STRONG"

“When they rob us of art and emotion, that leads us towards the aesthetics of fascism. In this film, all the sets are real, the decor is human-sized, there are painstakingly created miniatures... It’s there to remind us that art is not only necessary, it is urgent. And AI can go fuck itself!”

For the first time in more than 100 years, Chinook salmon have been spotted at the confluence of the Sprague and Williamson rivers in Chiloquin, the government seat of the Klamath Tribes in Southern Oregon.

He's saying the things!!! Someone in power is saying the things!!!

I cannot fucking wait to see this film. Already have my tickets. I'm on the hype train, choo choo motherfuckers.

A great weekend to share Jeff Bridges making a perfect joke

the full production is available to view on archive.org archive.org/details/xebp...

Oregon Senators continue to do the work.

Fuuuuuuuck.

Tonight we drank bourbon and listened to Run the Jewels on vinyl while I made peanut butter bread from "Baking Yesteryear" by B. Dylan Hollis. The world is scary right now, but there's still this. There's still love.

Every so often you get the joy of explaining Ryan Gosling’s ghost themed record which he performed in under the name Baby Goose
