I always knew it would be a rough day when Dolly left us; what I didn't expect was all the joy everyone is sharing about her life. It takes a special sort of light inside someone to do that.

Furious that Chris Nolan would disregard historical accuracy in adapting The Odyssey by making a "movie" with "cameras" instead of memorizing the entire story and then going on a nationwide tour to sing it to us while tripping on ergotized barley

The book is Angel Down. As I mentioned to Scott in my reply, the story structure put me off at first. I was all "this is so gimmicky!" and was going to return it to the library. But it kept calling to me. I tried again and got sucked in to the very end. It. Was. Amazing. The highest of recommends.

This video essay is fantastic. I'm not necessarily fully lifting my self-imposed book buying ban--cost of books nowadays and lack of space are still my predominant issues--but if I find a copy of a book I REALLY want that is reasonably priced... 📚📚📚 youtu.be/xTyjPfnJZwQ?...

I just finished watching In Search of Darkness: A Journey Into '80s Iconic Horror. I loved how it covered each year individually, discussed themes and tropes, reflected on society at the time, and the technical side of filmmaking. It's very thoughtful. I think it's a must-watch for horror film fans.

Sad news Rob Grant has passed away. Thank you for creating a comedy that defined my childhood. Me and my siblings rushing to put on another VHS as soon as we got the chance. It was a comedy that bonded us and brought such happiness. Thank you for the memories and the laughs. See ya, Smeghead.

Happy #NationalDrinkWineDay!
A bottle of red wine, with a label that reads "Bela Lugosi's Red". Underneath it reads "Translucent Black Grapes" and the art from the cover of the Bauhaus debut single, which was in turn taken from the 1926 film The Sorrows of Satan, directed by D. W. Griffith. 

It is also labelled a French Merlot but that is neither comic nor gothic. No, I don't know the origins of the picture or where you can get the wine.

Whaaat?! Green Day will be opening the Superb Owl tomorrow? I may actually watch this live. Maybe the TVs at work will be tuned to the event. I would love for them to do 'Jesus of Suburbia' but it's too long a track. Just give me 'American Idiot' and 'Holiday' (as a big fuck you) and I'll be happy.

Live your life in such a way that people won't smile when they read the news of your passing. If the worst people on the planet feel the need to explain to others that they should be humane and respectful when you finally kick, you've done fucked up.
