Cute meme referencing an underrated movie. One of my unpopular film opinions is that the Halloween series would have been better in the long run if they'd gone with the idea of a thematically-linked anthology series with more movies like this, rather than just going back to Michael Myers ad nauseum.

Wait a minute. Since Pope Leo is from Chicago, does that mean that that city's NBA team is...the Papal Bulls?

Stunned to hear about Pac just one day after that great match with Andrade. Just WTAF. #AEW

Someone in the crowd at #AEWAllOut has a sign that just says "Flamingos are Awesome." Which....I never really thought about it before but, yeah, I guess they are.

The only one that comes close is Lord of the Rings, but that one feels more like one story told across 3 movies. So Star Wars for me too.

This just in: Conservative Party of BC's leadership to adopt 24/7 rule stating that any MLA may challenge for the leadership at any time, provided there is a referee present to count the pinfall. #BCPoli

Things I was frightened of when I was a child. 1. Skeletons. There was this Halloween skeleton in a store window near our house that terrified me. 2. Cassowaries. As near as I could tell, they were like velociraptors but not extinct. 3. Death. Specifically losing a close friend or family member.

One of the many many reasons I love reading stories by @stephengrahamjones.com is that I often get to discover great songs that I've somehow never heard. In this case I've had "Somebody's Knockin'" by Terri Gibbs on repeat for the past week. Rockin' song about a devil in blue jeans.

Make your favourite book sound as boring as possible without giving away the title. A cowboy and his friends journey through Kansas by public transit and then on foot, all while he tells them about a teenage romance he had. For the whole series: A cowboy goes around looking for a tall building.

Make your favourite Video Game sound as boring as possible without giving away the title: Man goes into debt collection to help provide for his found family, but finds the work makes him sick.

If you don't already, you should all follow @fiascothecat.bsky.social. Quite possibly the most entertaining account on BlueSky. Also Fiasco's Big Friend @premeemohamed.com writes fantastic books and you should read them.

Much like Olive here, I'm emerging from my hiding place under the couch! Will now be posting here about writing, reading, and any number of nerdy interests.
