For no particular reason I’m fascinated by mychal the positivity librarian who literally wants to kill himself every day. For no particular reason.

I watched Matt Johnson’s The Dirties last night and was so fucking blown away and so deeply moved by it that I wrote like a five paragraph essay on Letterboxd and I’m still not done talking about it but I’m gonna have to tell the rest to a therapist

Definitely controversial opinion but I just read the turn of the screw and it was so bad it genuinely pissed me off. World’s most annoying prose style and it’s not even close

The Vampire Lestat was good btw, just thought I’d add my two cents. People saying Lestat was mischaracterized are definitely forgetting how fucking annoying (complimentary) he is in the books. Also sorry to the people who hated the music and glam rock stuff, they did all that for me specifically

I obviously love jimothy the raccoon but I’m avoiding watching too much about him because if anything bad happens to him I’ll have a psychotic break

Fish had a bad night in the ER and his blood pressure was high with a few other concerns that all sort of compounded on one another but he’s been doing better today. Sarah is posting a full update to the GoFundMe right now. the estimate also greatly increased so we will be increasing the goal

got biopsy results for Fish. the good news is that it was inconclusive. so the main concerns with removing the mass in his intestines are ruled out. but the bill is hefty after months of vet bills already piling up. I hate having to ask for help but if you can please do 🧡 gofund.me/9ab618f58

Every single one of you is sleeping on Max Headroom (1987). It’s so good. It’s stupid as fuck. It’s cyberpunk with TV instead of internet. Not a single element of any episode makes any sense whatsoever. Jeffrey Tambor is in it. It’s prescient. It’s obsolete. I could talk about it for hours.

Have we talked about how ahab using his own razors for his harpoon and then quenching it in the blood of his harpooneers and baptizing it in the name of Satan is basically the coolest part of any book ever written, second only to when ahab becomes a god of lightning 🐋

Really loving the Moby Dick read along because I reread it a few months ago, so I can participate in the fun discussion without actually having to do any of the work 🐋

One of my favorite bits in Moby Dick is how Ishmael keeps seeing omen after omen prior to boarding the Pequod and is just like, “hm. Another gallows. Which could mean nothing.” 🐋

Since everyone is reading Moby Dick right now, I want to draw your attention to this incredible interpretation of the Spouter’s Inn painting that I came across on reddit and am obsessed with 🐋

A lot of people being angry about Trump making the White House look ugly which is wild to me because I can’t imagine caring about or respecting the White House enough to give a shit about its aesthetics. We’re a bad country and we deserve to have an ugly, tacky building represent us. It’s funny!

Thinking about how Herman Melville didn’t know about whale songs and I’m so upset about this that I need to dig him up and make him write a new chapter

I regret to inform you all that I’m rereading moby dick and it continues to be maybe the best book to ever come out of America? In any case a truly life-altering book and I’m incapable of being normal about how good it is
