Going to try my usual 31 scary movies in 31 scary days, started yesterday with a rewatch of Pumpkinhead boxd.it/XHqBq

Movie poster for Pumpkinhead (1988).
The tagline at the top in red letters reads "A Grim Fairy Tale."
A large photo of Pumpkinhead's claw reaching down from above, about to carve into Maggie's (Kerry Remsen) forehead makes up the majority of the poster.
The title and credits are in the lower fifth of the poster.

So much of the lens on culture has been turned into a numbers game, where everything is about chart placements and streaming numbers and data. Its a horse race to who gets to do data best, and all of these dorks forget that people just want a song that will make them cry at the grocery store.

You know what? My heart wants a CWS/MIL or CWS/CHC World Series, but I might actually be able to get behind this.

It’s very simple and it’s been said over and over but I guess it needs saying continuously: if you deem one group too small to have equal rights you are enabling fascism, not fighting it. The people saying Dems are GREAT on trans rights are not paying attention and/or saying stuff like this.

The Democrats defend the Kennedy Center but not trans people.
A building.

@treewarrior.bsky....
maybe because defending everything about a super small minority of the population is not worth losing to fascists

I have to assume that The Muppet Studio pitched "the premise is THE MUPPETS are putting on a SHOW, and the audience sees both the show and behind the scenes" and Disney and Point Grey were in the corner eating glue

found a mirror at the National Gallery today

it wasn't actually a mirror, guys, it was a painting. From the National Gallery listing:

MASTER OF ST. AUGUSTINE UNKNOWN
PORTRAIT OF A MAN

late 15th century

Category:
European and American Painting, Sculpture, and Decorative Arts

This portrait is usually kept in storage. His expression is dour, and the likeness is not flattering, yet these qualities implied his rejection of vanity. Purchased as French, it was later thought to be Flemish. Aspects such as the man’s cloak are unusual, and the work is difficult to place. Some have even doubted the date, but technical evidence confirms it. This modest work represents the large body of paintings that are now generally excluded from museum collections or which no longer survive.

Think about Miss Piggy. She lost a best friend and now an ex-lover in matter of 24 hours.

I didn't know much about Dolly Parton when I was a kid except that she was in a movie with Lily Tomlin. Later on, I thought that the virtually unanimous love for her was some kind of ironic put-on. Then I listened to the music and learned just how *good* a person she was, and I finally got it. RIP

Aug 18th 1973 - 5 kids give a hitchhiker a lift, then get invited to dinner as a thank you. 📽️📅 The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974)

4 Screenshots from the move "The Texas Chain Saw Massacre" (1974): First, a black screen with the date "AUGUST 18, 1973" written in a gold-colored font. Second, a man with a bloodied face and a crazed expression sits in the back of a van, holding a knife. Third, in a dark and dilapidated house, a woman cautiously approaches a doorway where the menacing figure of Leatherface waits in a yellow apron. Fourth, a grotesque dinner scene shows Leatherface and other family members at a table decorated with bones and skulls, under a lamp made from a human face.

Old man yells at cloud thread, will be adding to this as I grow older and more annoyed and out-of-touch with /gestures broadly

Still from The Simpsons s13e13 "The Old Man and the Key".

The frame shows an article cut out from a newspaper being held by Selma Bouvier. The article's headline reads "OLD MAN YELLS AT CLOUD" and the featured photo is of Abraham Simpson, shaking his fist and yelling at a cloud.

for a junk drawer to legally qualify as a real junk drawer, what is the ONE absolute mandatory item it must include? loose bamboo skewers from that one time you made kebabs (but forgot to soak the skewers so they burnt up) and when you open the drawer it jams or they stick you when you reach in
