It’s like, the most bougie thing to order! Along with oysters. Which are also easy to do at home (I gotta remember $1 oyster Fridays at WF one of these weeks) Do keep an eye out for cheap, lean beef, and I’d love to walk you through my recipe!

Thank you!! 🥰 I would totally make you some if I could! I make it whenever petite sirloin goes on sale for $5-6/lb. It’s soooo easy to make; I can never order in a restaurant again, lol

Dinner and #DrinkCheck! I always need to make a Martini when I go retro with steak tartare for dinner. Couldn’t decide on a flavor profile, so I did a split base with juniper-heavy and citrus-forward gins.

*gals = gaps Oy. Enjoying it so far (needed a comfort break intermission). Always love a fresh take on zombies.

Coming back around on this, have you watched it? I tried, but I HATED the format. I appreciate a new approach, but this one wasn't for me. Probably good for people with ADHD, but the staticky channel change every 7 seconds was too much for me.

I love camp! Again, something horror excels at, esp with the throwbacks -- Lisa Frankenstein, Final Girls, etc. I haven't seen any of the V/H/S series, but I don't generally enjoy found footage*. Worth a shot? *Host was interesting--and only an hour, because it was actually filmed on Zoom in 2020

I only know minuscule bits about it from people complaining on reddit, and I do not care to know more. I should have quit the movies at "sawing a woman in half, starting with her genitals" and I wouldn't have missed anything.

Was gonna watch Mandy last night, but it's 2 hours long, and it was already after 10, so inadvertently picked a different 2 hour movie (House of Wax (2005)). Oops. Practical effects in it were great -- another thing I love about horror. They do love their practical effects!

Mara @sb67.bsky.social · 11/10/2026
Also, I'm impressed you made it through those Terrifiers! I noped out at the interminable and impossible bedroom scene in 2. I've heard nothing but criticism for #3, and its overt sexist sadism.

This was less of a commentary about horror movies, than about long movies in general. Longer isn’t necessarily better. Trim the fat and give us a nice tight story. That said, the substance should’ve been an hour shorter.

Mara @sb67.bsky.social · 11/10/2026
Lights Out was an enjoyably tense 80 minutes. I love how short and tight so many horror movies keep their story.

It dropped below 80° today and we got four teensy weensy raindrops, so I’m pretending like it’s Real Fall. Cinnamon apple tea and everything!

Which is why I can’t stand Elf, lmao. The gifs and clips I see are already Too Much for me. If you’ve never seen Stranger Than Fiction, and want a good dramedy, watch it. It’s got Emma Thompson!

Mara @sb67.bsky.social · 10/10/2026
That’s one more than me! I adore Stranger Than Fiction, where he plays completely against the type in pretty much all his other movies.

I feel that way about Will Ferrell, so I get it. VV can be hit or miss for me depending on the role (yes to this; no to everything about Wedding Crashers)

Vince Vaughn plays a deranged serial killer, and the two of them switch bodies. So you have Kathryn Newton playing as a middle-aged male serial killer, and Vince Vaughn playing as a 16 year-old high school girl.

Mara @sb67.bsky.social · 10/10/2026
You’ve seen Freaky, yes? If not, I would put that ahead of Lisa Frankenstein in the list.

Mara @sb67.bsky.social · 10/10/2026
It was cute. Very PG-13. But Kathryn Newton is always a horror delight! Love her in Freaky -- oh, which I also caught on TV this week.

Doesn't surprise me; I found most of them on a list somewhere. Influencer and its sequel made for a fun double-feature, if a bit low on the scare-o-meter. Hereditary left me with a giant WTF at the end; not sure how I felt about it. I've got Lights Out in the DVD player for tonight.
200
Mara @sb67.bsky.social · 10/10/2026
This week, I remember I watched Influencer, Influencers, Lisa Frankenstein, Host, and Hereditary, all new to me. Old ones were Nightmare on Elm St, plus a few in whole or part that have been on TV--Thirteen Ghosts, and bits of a few others.

Mara @sb67.bsky.social · 10/10/2026
Classic slashers are my jam. Halloween is in my rotation! Also Nightmare on Elm Street, and usually Friday the 13th. Usually some classic 90s horror revival, too -- Scream and The Craft. The heatwave here threw me off my game; feeling behind, but intentionally trying to watch more new-to-me movies.
100
Mara @sb67.bsky.social · 10/10/2026
There are probably 10 movies in regular annual Halloween rotation, and this was added before I’d even finished the movie the first time I watched lol. So enjoyable.

Thank you so much! Feedback and support like this are so critical to me to help silence that horrible inner voice. I don’t have a local support system, so I have to turn to the pocket friends, and am grateful for you and your friendship. I wish we could hang out so I could buy us a round of beers!

Mara @sb67.bsky.social · 10/10/2026
I just did a second round, including the spots around the faucets that never scrub clean, and those worked like a charm! The corner is probably a bit deeper (so trickier?) but a second round lightened them even more. Bottle was only $3 at Dollar Tree, and I’m gonna call it money well spent.

After saying that, I figured now is as good a time as any to try it! Directions say to spray, leave for one minute, then rinse. Results not perfect, but visibly shows improvement given how absolutely no effort was put in—not even a wipe down.

Mara @sb67.bsky.social · 10/10/2026
I haven’t tried it yet, but the nice lady at the store said she uses this in the Airbnbs she cleans and swears by it! And Zep is generally is known to make great products

I was expecting a cheesecake base, which I love. This is normal ice cream base (but y’know, pumpkin) with cheesecake chunks in it. And miraculously, the cheesecake is still moist and creamy instead of hard and grainy. These $3 store brand pints punch WAY above their weight. So good.

Mara @sb67.bsky.social · 10/10/2026
Made with real pumpkin and everything! Strong recommend.

For some reason, I thought you'd leashed her before for walks. Was that Alice? Can you take Bear on walks??

My circle is practically a pinpoint these days for that reason. It sucks, and it gets lonely, but I have to remind myself that at least I’m not being treated like shit.

Mara @sb67.bsky.social · 08/10/2026
Thank you ♥️ It's tricky, though -- healed enough to recognize behavior and not tolerate it, but the body still reacts in full trigger mode. My adrenaline went through the roof receiving that barrage of insulting messages. It's so internalized, and instills self-doubt b/c it's an ongoing pattern.

Mara @sb67.bsky.social · 08/10/2026
Apparently I’m “cruel” and “not a good person” because I called someone out on our one-sided “friendship,” and wouldn’t accept them gaslighting me about it. Neat. What is it about October that that’s when my friendships implode? Happened w/ a few people last Oct, too. Maybe I am just a bad person.

...do I admit that the free trial worked on me, and I've been subscribed ever since? I get super annoyed when I have to listen to normal radio now! But 2 things of note: 1. I don't like/use Spotify or Apple music; it's all Sirius or Pandora 2. I threaten to cancel every year, so it's only $6/month
