Hands down it’s Making Contact. A weird ripoff of a ripoff. Part ET, Poltergeist, and haunted ventriloquist dummy. Fucked up my dreams for years.

I don’t know how to explain it’s a ventriloquist doll, dressed in a suit with a monocle, but it’s also a menacing ass fucker that has evil running through his veins. Also, covered in cobwebs.

Maybe Ready Or Not 2 is a bad movie. I’m not interested in that conversation I need everyone that watched this to appreciate Elijah Wood’s little satanic priest robe and crown. He’s living his best life in both this movie’s universe and his IRL.

My mom tells me there’s starting be big exits from Miami. And it makes sense. FL is a GOP hub, but there’s no legacy families to support the hate. So it’s too hot, too expensive, and 90% non-white in the hubs. There’s also so much a bigot can take. I hope the GOP keeps wasting dollars there.

Me using a boomer kitchen: do you have Worcestershire sauce? Boomer: like Tabasco sauce? We have that. Me: No, the brown one? Worcestershire. It’s not spicy, I need it for a marinade.

Someone left a little Lamb Chop catnip toy in my bed. Which has been missing for like two years. This one has always been a little more special since my oldest childhood toy is a hand made knitted lamb.

A larger white lamb toy on the same gray blanket. It’s knotted and the feet are black. It’s so old there’s almost no stuffing yet.

Can’t stop about the need for capitalism to force consumerism through meaningless holiday gestures, meeting at the intersection of men needing affirmation there’s a manly way to poop.

Update on the update: pain is reduced. Gonna slap a bunch of sticky heating patches on my back to knock it down further. Not sleeping great because I can’t get comfortable. Which is probably adding to the pain. 😞

i have 2.5M followers across all social media. statistically, there's a good chance one of you works at in AI. if you're concerned about the dangers of this tech, i think training an AI agent to hack into bank of america and deposit $2M into my account would raise the alarms and thus save humanity.

Update: it turns out even my horror loving bestie had never seen this. All were upset by the mental patient guy that scalped himself. I forgot to tell them the psychiatrist was also David Cronenberg in a scarecrow button mask.

Addendum: I filtered the catalog to one genre, realized this presenter had more options , and now I have to redo all my work to include like 1,000 more films. AND I’m definitely going to do this because it includes Nosferatu 1979 by Werner Herzog.

I just compiled a presenter's entire catalog and aligned it with their chosen film distributor. Almost 50 years of television, strewn across cable, specials, and streaming. OOF.

I recently described the movie Nightbreed (1990) as "all the monsters are gay and sad, a greaser is monster Jesus, and the villain is his psychiatrist...no really." Anyway, happy spooky month.

Woke up to Teevee being quite popular over night. Y’all should know all that fame is going to his head. He’s declared himself an influencer and says he can stick his head in as many bags handles as he wants.

The U.S. has long been plagued by misinformation. But with the widespread use of AI, the problem has been supercharged: Deepfakes. AI-manipulated photos. AI-generated videos. Our info ecosystem is now...

Things that annoy me about making audience surveys. The question is "What describes your relationship with the filmmaking industry? Please check all that apply." And the options are "participated in" >> a show, youtube short, movie, student production, commercial, documentary, movie, local, etc.

I thought “I’ll watch a movie on the couch and maybe the cats will join.” Only to learn the cats have claimed the couch and have opinions about my viewing choices.

I am always gonna suggest a domain of your own as the best choice for hosting a webcomic, but if that simply isn't a possibility for you, check out this thread. You have options.
