I feel like the Resident Evil movie mostly stayed true to the source material by taking the most frustrating and tedious aspects of it ("great another lock," "where the fuck is ammo please," "Goddamn it, I have to fight guy *again*?), and ramping them up to a bewildering degree

You guys wanna hear me READ TO FILTH? Contains: Hiron Ennes mercilessly called out an aughts weeaboo, the world's gayest straight-wedding-planner Bertram Gorslung finally given the recognition he deserves, and the various perils of clocking in at the dick-sucking factory.

I've talked about the Sameer Project before—an excellent life-saving on-the-ground initiative in Gaza. Since April 2024, they've distributed nearly a quarter of a million meals alone (plus water, medical care, and shelter). But funding has dropped so much that they'll have to shut down without help.

Puck the Pithuaweenie says to read Works of Vermin

A super intelligent small brown dog sitting in someone's lap with The Works of Vermin open in front of him. He is wearing reading glasses and glances slyly at the camera, because he knows he's so intelligent and good-looking (both of the attributes are emphasized by the fact that he is reading Works of Vermin by technically bestselling author Hiron Ennes)

(cw: bugs/insects) Just received my copy of the Hungarian edition of The Works of Vermin by @hironennes.bsky.social. This was one of the best and toughest jobs I've had as a translator in recent years. I really hope I did the book justice, because I loved working on it. 😊 #booksky #mutimitolvasol

My left hand holding up the Hungarian edition of The Works of Vermin by Hiron Ennes. The cover shows a circle that is actually a coiled centipede, with leaves and other nature-like elements. In the background, a bookcase is visible, full of books.

I redesigned the cover of The Works of Vermin by @hironennes.bsky.social 🐛 I've spent so long on this...... #art #theworksofvermin

detailed digital illustration, with the title THE WORKS OF VERMIN in orange. It has 3 layers in a vaguely hourglass shape, with trees framing the edges. The top has a man impaling another with a sword on a stage, with people watching from the balconies. The middle has two people on balconies covered in plants facing each other. The bottom has a man in a steampunky exterminator suit being attached by a giant centipede creature.

The faux leather cover of THE WORKS OF VERMIN that looks like an old manual of some sort, with gold text and trim and two centipedes imprinted at the top and bottom

The edge of THE WORKS OF VERMIN, featured a spredged dragon, which, when bent, reveals....

Book 25: The Works of Vermin by @hironennes.bsky.social I wish I had the words to describe this book but I'm afraid they unravel as soon as they're conceived. I need Guillermo Del Toro to do a film adaptation of this book. I need a visual novel. I need others to read this masterpiece.
