Let 👏🏻 monsters 👏🏻 be 👏🏻 mysteries. 👏🏻

Aunt Gladys is a perfect example of this. The characters don't know where she came from, and neither should we! It's the mystery that helps a movie linger in your brain. And of course they *have* to do a prequel explaining Aunt Gladys. My other hot take? Same with X and Pearl.

It's this way of thinking that lead us to the point where everything gets a sequel or a prequel just to hold your hand and tell you about the monster. I don't need to know. The mystery makes it better. I don't need to know Cruella's mom was killed by dalmatians and that's why she's evil.

My biggest pet peeve when it comes to horror movies is when people just can't let the monster be a monster. I watched one and someone reviewed it saying, "I wish we would've gotten more back story on the demon!" and it's like.. He's a demon. He's evil. That's.. that's his thing.

I had the hardest time picking ONE song for this. Songs about the Devil are my specialty and I could've pulled some weird spooky stuff, but nah, going back to my emo kid roots with ALK3.

It also helps that Flask cocktails has a bunch of my style of drink (mostly spirits, amaros, and sherry), whereas Tiny Cocktails tickles the part of my brain that loves a 2 oz cocktail.

Right now, these are my two favorite cocktail books. They're both designed for unusual formats (small glassware and flasks) and have plenty of deliciously weird cocktails.

It's classist as hell. Plus, from my small sample size, most conservatives I've cut out of my life were college educated. Trump and his cabinet are "well educated." Like... what are we doing here. Why is this a talking point?

010

hex @ouijacore.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

As someone who has "no more than a hs education" and is probably further left than this person, can we put this idea to rest that you have to be well educated to be on the left or there's some correlation between education and political leanings?

A thread post from user tatianna.joie
"What I find funny/ironic, most of the big celebrities are left leaning and are also very well educated. influencers do not tend to be educated, most having no more than a HS education, and tend to be more conservative.
It aligns with how the general population votes too."

There's a running list of albums by relatively niche artists from the 2000s-2010s that I always hope will get a vinyl release, but boy are some of them absolutely never going to happen. Like, I would do unspeakable things for a vinyl of Greatest Show Unearthed by Creature Feature.

In the Are You Afraid of the Dark? episode "The Tale of The Twisted Claw," one of the characters pronounces "the claw of a vulture" as "the chlor of a voucha" and I truly cannot comprehend what accent she was going for with that one.

When you tell trans people that the hard choice electoral calculus is that you win more if you hurt them, don't expect that to get a positive response.

I saw someone on Threads (don't ask why I was on that hellscape) ask for alternative swears because "motherfucker" and "dumb bitch" are problematic. Someone suggested "cocksucker" and she said "Ooh, that's a good one!" without an ounce of irony.💀 Y'all.

Pretty surprised these sold, but glad they found a good home! The person said they wanted them but didn't know if they had a place to hang them, came back a few minutes later and said, "I'll find somewhere for them."

I need to actually get pictures of some of the prints I did for an artist market, but this guy is still one of my favorites. It's 1/3 of my Wicker Man mini collection I did.

Oh, and a newsletter. It's super disappointing, especially when they haven't toured Atlanta for a while. Soooo yeah. Deeply over them just focusing on shows and not like people who literally paid for early access to cool stuff.

hex @ouijacore.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

I used to be a "coven member" which came with early access and special vinyl color ways, but then they suddenly shifted to only being able to get stuff at shows, and the "coven member" exclusive merch has been like a coffee mug, a throw blanket, and a pin for like the last couple years.

Wild seeing Twin Temple already selling their new album at shows, considering those of us who preordered it back in June are expected to wait until "the week of" October 9th to receive ours. You thought I would have learned after the last TT vinyl debacle, but guess not.

The first company is lincsco.com, they make amazing chain harnesses and jewelry. The second is www.hunksofmetal.com They specialize in custom harness hardware and jewelry and do custom harnesses as well. I can proudly recommend both as incredible people to support.

A few years ago, a friend of mine had a wild idea to make sculptural rings for harnesses. He's grown such an amazing business from an idea that he wanted to see in the world. I just love seeing people making things they want to see in the world.
