J.M. Thor 🧿 @mr-thor.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Would you rather be cursed by a demon to remain chained to the Neverending Pasta Bowl At Olive Garden for the rest of your living days, or to the Endless Shrimp At Red Lobster, suffering an eternity of exponentially dwindling portions for every meal? 000
J.M. Thor 🧿 @mr-thor.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Halfway through King & Straub's The Talisman for the first time, as a stop on my Dark Tower journey (also for the first time). I am enjoying it so far (Wolf! Wolf!), but it does read like the final boss of Pantser narratives. What will happen next? O great mystery of the universe! 000

J.M. Thor 🧿 @mr-thor.bsky.social · 19/02/2026I love reading horror, but I'm never quite scared by it. That is, until I picked up a book of @brianevenson.bsky.social's stories. ~ "I seem to be standing on your clothing," he told the other. "It's not my clothing," the face said. "No?" said Grauer. "What is it?" "My skin," the face said. 000

J.M. Thor 🧿 @mr-thor.bsky.social · 26/01/2026Halfway through King Sorrow, and I am pleased to report that @stephenking.bsky.social's habit of mentioning a "blue chambray shirt" in every novel is a legacy that Joe Hill carries proudly. Loving the book so far! (and reading it in my red flannel shirt, for all you shirtheads out there) 000

Reposted by J.M. Thor 🧿Ben Collins @bencollins.bsky.social · 24/01/2026By who? Who shot the person dead? You saw the video. We all know a federal agent shot a man dead who was prone on the ground. Also, it's not "according to officials." It's according to verified video seen with your eyes. Not saying what anyone can obviously see with their eyes is a form of lying. 695298406970

J.M. Thor 🧿 @mr-thor.bsky.social · 19/01/2026Just finished The Boatman, @alexgrecian.bsky.social's upcoming, and it was a real treat. My favorite kind of spec fic, where one small thing is different and we examine what scenarios may unspool. Its a poignant meditation on mortality and legacy, and surprisingly, also a breezy beach read. 1/ 162

J.M. Thor 🧿 @mr-thor.bsky.social · 16/01/2026Like how many books will not get written, how many paintings will not get finished, how many songs will go unsung because these fuckers in charge make us too stressed out to find the mental space to be creative 010
