My Dad let us watch grown up horror movies after Mom went to bed. So, I may be a bit of an outlier when I say the girl from the Exorcist. Freddie Kruger was a close second.

One of the things I like to rewatch during this spooky month is @linkara.bsky.social all in one coverage of the terrible Silent Hill comics. It always boost my mood. youtu.be/wFFg7hMnJIU?...

Since it's October, I feel it's necessary to share David Cronenberg & Clive Barker being the best worm dads.

I may be embarrassing myself here to some people with this, but I don't see it that way. I'm not a metrics driven person. I'm not checking my follower counts every day or trying to figure out the best way to drive engagement. This is just me being me & hoping my stuff brings joy/entertainment.

The Ohio gas tax break starts next week. The usual state tax on gas is .385 cents per gallon. For 90 days it will be only .01 cent per gallon. This is to offset the high gas prices, especially with the holiday travel season coming up. It's sad states have to try to fix the prez's f* ups.
