It is Hallowmonth, so I am contractually required by the radge basturt spirits of my ancient forebears to post a *proper* Jack O'Lantern for the benefit of all you sweet summer children of America with yer cute lil pumpkins.

A proper jack o'lantern carved from a tumshie, a hideous leathery visage like the head of some terrible burn victim left languishing in an insane asylum for decades, the bandages stained filthy to the point of solidity, with a sick sheen. Pumpkins? Pfft!

having brought up The Tatami Galaxy (book mode) i should say that a) you gotta watch the anime and b) you gotta listen to the @animesickos.bsky.social ep with @minovskyarticle.bsky.social about it. really fun discussion on what makes such a manic and intentionally circuitous show hit so good

What to do for Halloween?? Main goal is to buy/make as little as possible (closet-cosplay style). Current ideas: 1) Buy a witch hat (the only item truly necessary for a witch costume) 2) slick my hair back (it's short right now), + jeans, boots, leather jacket = generic greaser Ideas? Tips?

Today I saw the new 4 hour documentary Musk, directed by Alex Gibney. There were too many times to count that a sold out theater burst out laughing at Elon Musk, something he said or did, even sometimes just how he looked. I believe that is his worst nightmare come to life.

Fuck ChatGPT flyers. The future is broadsheets.

A crowded broadsheet with way too many fonts. It says:
Forget ChatGPT Flyers

Unlimited fonts
Stretch them

No whitespace

On a funnier note, the first time I read the Terra Ignota series (2017? 2018?) it felt sort of far-fetched for a bunch of the most powerful people in the world to all be in a sex-cult together. Now it's like "huh, I guess forming sex cults is just what powerful people do. like, instinctively."

We saw Mersey licking at the underside of a shelf - the only things under there are dustbunnies and cobwebs! Does Mersey eat spiders??

Economist John Kenneth Galbraith didn't live to see the "effective altruism" movement, but he knew the type and read them for filth.

The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy: that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.

As a sub over dub sicko I am infuriated with the state of labeling movies both online and at movie theaters. Just clearly state which one is the sub and which is the dub. You don't understand, if I hear an American voice my throat will close up and I will have to be rushed to the hospital

When I'm making my party of six characters for a playthrough of ice wind dale I almost always make a meathead cleric named Breadbun. Just one of those self-enforced character memes. In FF Crystal Chronicles I name my Selkie characters MieüMiks and MiksTaep. You guys have recurring character names?
