Here’s my take on book accuracy: I literally don’t care. I’m here for the Rolin Jones adaptation. He can make Gabrielle Lestat’s neighbor. He can make Marius the landlord of the house Lestat rents on the outskirts of Massachusetts. He can make Lestat an accountant by day. I DONT CAAAARE.

How it feels to read Anne Rice

SORRY HE BREAKS A GUITAR WHILE MAKING ANGRY EYE CONTACT? SORRY?????

I’m not ready for any of this.

MOTHER OF GOD I’VE GOT ANGRY LESTAT BACK IN MY LIFE 😭

I don’t need a god to give my life meaning. Sam Reid looking at Jacob Anderson gives my life meaning.

Ads and other content made with AI is actually the best thing that’s ever happened to my budget. I’m spending much more time scrutinizing a brand’s content before making a purchase and it’s hard to overstate how much I absolutely will not buy something if I get even a whiff of AI 😂

Jacob: 🎶 I’m working laaate cuz I’m a singerrrr🎶 Your honor please I love them 😭

The vampire Lestat activation at Comic-Con Mexico City looks like it might be a test run or proof of concept for SDCC. The stage makes me wonder if there might be a concert of some kind at sdcc or just a similar showcase. Image is from instagram user @/reinosupermanos

I would die so many deaths just to have him look at me like this

“What have you done, Lestat?”

Imagine having the audacity to ask him anything

I’m listening to the new Lestat song with all the love in my heart, I don’t care how it sounds 😭

I have spiritually ascended on the stairmaster and now I am calm. Nonchalant, even. It’s just a tv show. I enjoy it normally. Soon I’ll make dinner and I won’t just keep watching the trailer on every screen available to me.

Lestat: “I am a monster. This is my reckoning.” Some folks: “ugh the show’s gonna make it look like he did nothing wrong.”

The horsemen of my apocalypse, my nightmare blunt rotation, etc etc

You’re free to be miserable because a 2-minute trailer doesn’t cover the entirety of the season to come. You can be miserable because the protagonist for a book titled vampire lestat is…the vampire lestat. Hell you can even be miserable just because some folks are happy. But as for me and my house:

Here’s an extremely “book-accurate” lestat if you’re paying attention to that. He says “I am immortal” with this deep pain of realization on his face. This is a different immortality. Far beyond the immortality of a vampire. And it is a terrifying, heartbreaking truth for him.

“You witnessed the French Revolution” This transition is so beautiful. I see my lonely wolfkiller. I see my lonely vampire. I see the love of my life.

I have so many thoughts but they’re all scrambled in so many emotions because I’ve waited an unbelievable amount of time to see this book adapted. Interview with the vampire fed my little heart when I was a lonely teen. The vampire lestat exploded it right out of my chest. And now here it nearly is.

If you’re not like this about the vampire lestat (the show, the book, the vampire himself) then you probably shouldn’t talk to me

Feeling normal. Feeling chill.

Don’t you dare ever forget that heated rivalry is about millennials.

I said this once before and it didn’t go well because media literacy is dead but: We are about to meet Lestat for the first time. Just as he is. Not filtered through another person’s perception of him. This is not the same thing as saying “Louis was lying the whole time about everything.”

I don’t have what it takes to survive this

A GOD. AN ANGRY GOD.

My mortal enemies at amc making plans for the vampire lestat:

My sleep paralysis demon:

amc: “powered by fandom” me, a fan, looking at amc:

We as a society are not mashedpotatotoastmaxxing and that’s why things are so fucked I think.

“I wish he was here.” - Sam Reid about Jacob Anderson. ME TOO BUDDY

“I’m Jerry…the ginger eater.” “THIS IS NOT REAL GINGER HAIR!!!!”

if you can read this send us some work

Worth noting that orban was in power for 15 years. Which is to say; the road may be long but it is not without end.

LOVABLE IMMORTAL IMBECILE that’s him that’s my baby, my vampire Lestat

1. I HATE the stupid ripoff job of Criminal Minds Netflix obviously did with The Hunting Party. Even down to the private jet and the quirky computer analyst. It is so terrible. 2. There BETTER be a season 2 and they BETTER start it with Oliver recovering in the hospital.

“So you wrote a whole book based on things I said to you during an interview about my life that I asked you to conduct. Does the betrayal end there or…?”

I’m going about my day. I’m minding my business. I open Instagram out of habit. And WHAT IS THERE STARING BACK AT ME? The love of my life making one of my favorite Louis expressions and doing one of his favorite activities which is lying about his feelings in an interview 😭

Some time ago, he developed an obsession with a particular shoe and began giving it to members of his staff. Without asking them what size shoes they wear. They accepted the shoes and they wear them to please him, regardless of fit. And we expect these people to stand up to him? At all?

I really don’t know what to say or do

I don’t know guys I’m not sure if the strongly-worded social media posts are gonna stop the genocidal maniacs. Good effort though. Maybe try something else now.

Oh dear 😂

“Those of us that can, are looking back” #artemis

A beautiful and radical convergence of my worlds. (Villain Era is my friend’s publication. He’s the best the person in the world. You should support it). (And the vampire…well, if you’re reading this then you already know).

I tried to clean up my profile (because why are there more than 6k posts from me on this godforsaken internet) but I can’t revisit my past self. First of all, why couldn’t she have shut up once in a while. Secondly, actually, leave her alone. She had a lot to say and I’m glad she said it.

Sending a hug to my past self. Telling her everything will be fine. We’re going to be okay.

I was thinking about season 1 Lestat and why he’s in New Orleans and what’s making him behave the way that he does. The sadness and loneliness and love that he doesn’t know how to process so he behaves in increasingly weird and insane ways. I’ll always love him.

I say this every time we get the tiniest little morsel of content but I really do not think I’m emotionally or even physically prepared for the vampire lestat, the man or the vampire or the rockstar or the book or the show or the concept or the dream or the fantasy. None of it. I’m not ready.

Ever since I was a little girl I’ve wanted to be this guitar

I just watched a thread about the incredible new image of earth from Artemis II morph into a discussion about camera settings, then cameras, then people talking about their own cameras. I don’t have the time to make the words but this feels like a very bsky thing. Folks are so…something
