Divest from Harry Potter and JKR, y'all. It's okay to feel sad about no longer engaging with something that meant a lot to you, but a fictional world that funds a very real assault on trans rights will never be more meaningful than caring about the safety of trans folks.

DUMPLEY'S SCAVENGER HUNT was one of the winning entries of the 2020 Bogleech Creepypasta Cookoff, but the images are no longer available on the original site due to the image hosting service I originally used, so I decided to reupload it on itch.io! #artlysmith partlysmith.itch.io/dumpleysscav...

Ironically, Garfield and Friends, a kids' show, satirised this mentality with the Buddy Bears: www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNJE...

That's most likely because the only "adult" media they know of is Family Guy, Rick and Morty and TADC and they think all "adult media" characters are like Peter, Rick and Jax. I still like a lot of kids' media but I acknowledge they have to be simplified because they're, you know, for kids.

Yet another instance of American Christians wanting to be the victims, even though so much of them are crueler and more hateful than that grumpy man.

(The old joke in question had a politician die, spend a day in Heaven which is just worship and choir singing, spend a day in Hell where he golfs and drinks and is told to choose where they want to spend eternity. They choose Hell and get tortured forever. The nicer Hell was just Satan "campaigning"

When has anyone sincerely said that Hell is just a big party? Only thing I can think of is that old joke where a politician has to choose between Heaven and Hell and that had Hell be an eternity of suffering as a punchline.

The 1999 movie was at least memorable; I barely remember anything about the Flanagan version. The 1999 version also inspired me to watch the 1963 version and read the book; hopefully some people who watched the Flanagan version were inspired to do the same.

If you're gonna have a horror story about monsters holding hands, have them dine atop a pile of their victims' bones and suck on a large intestine Lady and the Tramp style. Have one of them propose with a ring they spat out when they bit off a humans arm.

It's Indigenous Peoples Day, a day to learn and honour our ancestors. Apparently, the origin of the word cannibal isn't well known. I hope this post helps! I'm Marat, a queer Afro-Indigenous indie author who loves history and dealing with our fucked up past in fictionally Gothic ways.

I wonder if, at one time, a fully human Vivian acted a bit more like Wolf Vivian, but was judged and berated for it so she kept those aspects of her self hidden, only for them to come out in wolf form as a side effect of her later lycanthrophy.

The Weird Writer @thewriterofweird.bsky.social · 11/10/2026
Poor Vivian. I get the impression that Wolf Vivian's personality comes from a part of Human Vivian she keeps hidden. In human form, she probably wants to describe her gaming experiences in great detail, but is worried about being seen as "cringe" or being judged.

This was kinda a thought I had about Big Betty/Barry. He's an excavator who wants to be human and non-humans wanting humanity is commonly seen as a trans allegory, but he actually is a trans man. I also wondered if I should just say fuck it and reveal Derek as a trans man too.

Just because everybody makes fun of the "public domain kids book but now it's horror" movies doesn't mean swinging the pendulum in the other direction is a good idea.

Are Lock and Barrel trying out different costumes or did Shock decide she was too good for them and found some other trick-or-treaters?

I was thinking the same, and also thought the same way about How Fish Is Made. Does anyone else know of any other games that feel like Alice in Wonderland (without using overt imagery or actual characters from the books like McGee's Alice and Ravenlok did)?

The Weird Writer @thewriterofweird.bsky.social · 10/10/2026
It's a bit like saying the "horror movie levels" of video games set at a movie studio - which are usually just an old Victorian mansion with bedsheet ghosts as enemies - represent horror as a whole, taking something many, but not all, of them have and saying the whole genre is like that.

The Weird Writer @thewriterofweird.bsky.social · 10/10/2026
Saying horror is about love is a bit like saying a story isn't a horror story unless it has a vampire or another supernatural monster. Love is a big part of Dracula, for example, but vampires are another big part and not every horror story has vampires.

Theme parks are one of those things that are more fun to experience in fiction than actually explore. Playing a video game where you explore a haunted theme park at least gives you the opportunity to battle monsters.
