READ THESE! Cursed videotapes are so 90s; we need more stories about cursed books/plays.

Mushrooms aren’t the internet of the forest they’re the gossips

There are many reasons why this is not good. Another quandary for Labour. Hint: get involved early, not late.

Ooh nice! Been quite a while since I've had such a nailbiter bidding on eBay but victory was mine. One day it'll be for something that isn't Star Trek RPG related but until then...

PLURIBUS is a marvel. Rhea Seehorn and Vince Gilligan at the peak of their powers. One of the best things I've watched this year. My @looperhq.bsky.social review: www.looper.com/2019345/plur...

Growing up were there any moments in movies that traumatised you? (Any scene involving Dana Barret, her fridge or especially Terror Dog arms bursting out of her armchair - I used to watch this film early every Saturday morning... sitting on the floor or a wooden stool)

People thinking they’re inventing network television after 10 years of destroying network television, I am going to walk into the fucking ocean.

"Europeans recognize his vision about free public transit and universal childcare. We expect our governments to make these kinds of services accessible to all of us,” said Verbeek. “We pay higher taxes and get civilized societies in return."

Huh. I just learned about the existence of the galaxy frog. *... feels a bit chirpier* animalko.com/fun-facts-ab...

Important.

As always, my cinema double-bills make little connective sense other than I'm just still thinking about the great acting (if very different requirements) in both ROOFMAN and BUGONIA. (And, if I were to repeat this double-bill, I'd probably watch Bugonia first second time around. Daaaaark :)

Saw someone say that the enraged radicalized wine moms are going to impose Sangria Law and honestly that’s pretty good

Batgirl #13 is out in comic shops today. The War of Shadows continues.

Some shitty teens hit me in the head with a stone the other night while I was sitting outside the cinema. In completely unrelated news, I'm now watching 1987's THE BLOB destroy some shitty teenagers. Completely unrelated, I tell ya.

Happy 'Still really enjoying V for Vendetta even tho it's not a wholly faithful adaptation' Day to all who celebrate.

“Since mankind's dawn, a handful of oppressors have accepted the responsibility over our lives that we should have accepted for ourselves. By doing so, they took our power. By doing nothing, we gave it away. We've seen where their way leads, through camps and wars, towards the slaughterhouse.”

I'm very much enjoying resuming my first coffee of the day writing to the Death Stranding soundtrack routine.

The classic film noir THE MALTESE FALCON (1941) with Humphrey Bogart etc, was the third film adaptation of the original novel. And it's the best one, by several orders of magnitude. #noirvember

Finally. My Godzilla vs Cthulhu t-shirt comes closer to 'reality'* *although it happening in actual reality doesn't feel 0% possible either!

Happy #GodzillaDay! Fun fact: Godzilla made his first comic book appearance in Life with Archie 41, from September 1965!

Very bad news. Teen Vogue was doing work other journalists were not.

Double-billed with the latest Chainsaw Man release, obvs. Sweet n' salty.

Catching up on the latest releases with 1921's 'The Cabinet of Dr Caligari'. What a twist!

Ooh nice! Just clocked that my questions for ITV's 'The 1% Club' have just started popping into this season. Devilish to write (many attempts perished along the way) but v good fun to put together!

FYI: K-pop slasher PERFECT GIRL is now a HUNTR/X reunion, as KPOP DEMON HUNTERS stars May Hong and Arden Cho lead the horror thriller.

Loved reading this!

FYI: 35 years ago, the first Simpsons Halloween Special changed everything.

It’s basically Deep Space Nine.

I ate these veggie breakfast waffles and am pretty pleased about it.

Last week at Broken Frontier… THOUGHT BUBBLE MONTH review! Dougborne – Light-Hearted ’90s Animated Sitcom ‘Doug’ and Gritty Video Game ‘Bloodborne’ Converge in this Unlikely Shanefaced Mash-Up. @shanefaced.bsky.social #bf6towatch www.brokenfrontier.com/dougborne-sh...

Okay, that was all great fun. One thing I actually do enjoy about getting older is just slipping into the aesthetics of 90s media like a delightfully beaten up old couch!

Now headed to a cinema double bill of the original 1990 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie then the first Scream. The common theme being... 90s teenagers running around with sharp weapons?

Okay, let's peek back into BlueSky for a bit. How are you? My October wasn't my favourite but I did read these brilliant haunting books in prep for Halloween. Recommended reading from very different vantage points!

this one doin numbers on mastodon but bsky doesn't let me have enough characters

It's almost Halloween, read a hair-raising scary comic TODAY!
