I hate it when the The Sads just… appear. No warning. Just there all at once.

New short story in the can, Back To Blood Mountain. A tale of Appalachian myths, monsters, and the attention economy. Needs a cool-off and an edit pass, but it’s good to finish another one. 👍

Surprisingly deep mechanics + great job framing the weird Lore + excellent production values = worth checking out if you’re a TTRPG player looking for something a bit different. Published by @greenroninpub.bsky.social

So Guardians of the Galaxy 2 isn’t a great film. BUT. I love that James Gunn picked ‘Brandy’ for the song the Bad Dad keeps quoting - a song about terrible men endlessly hitting on a barmaid while straight-up admitting that they were gonna be terrible to her if she married them. *Chef kiss*

The Last of Us, season one, is a great piece of television because: - Every episode goes SO HARD, showing us different, intensely personal stories and - It has SUCH good bad guys - every one really seems like someone who just… collapsed under the strain. Chilling…

Costco runs it's own rigorous food inspection program. And they didn't bend the knee on DEI. Plus, they dropped Callaway Golf after their horrific ad depicting violence against women. And they are refusing to carry trump meat. So that's where I'll be shopping.

Restoration of my grandparents’ midcentury Tank Chair is done! I think this might have actually been a non-production prototype from all the hand penciled notes inside the carcass - so so cool. My grandparents had STYLE, y’all… ❤️❤️❤️

It WAS a good film! Because (as I said a few days ago), the writers chose to make the story a SMALL one, focusing mainly on intensely personal stakes. These are films about dudes in tights, folks… they gotta give us actual human stories if they want people to be really engaged! ❤️

Saw The Odyssey for the second time today, this time on a small, standard 35mm screen (not IMAX), and something struck me: The film is SO very claustrophobic. Small spaces everywhere, showcasing small, PERSONAL dramas. Weird for a film marketed for its ‘big-ness’.

‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’ is (surprisingly) a Really Good Movie! Why? Because the creators realized that a good Spidey movie is one where the stakes are as small and human-sized as posssible. Verdict: Go See It!

The bullshit absurdity of the US healthcare system is MADDENING. I need to put my mom, with a literal broken back, into a car so I can drive down and get a piece of fucking paper with a number on it. So I can then call to read that number back to someone else to get an MRI.

Went to see The Odyssey. Interesting film, though surprisingly… brown. And Nolan films have never been the same since he stopped working with Hans Zimmer. The worst part hands down was the *30 MINUTES* of nonstop shitty ads before the film. Regal Theaters really suck; won’t be back. 👎
