Watching The Furious and hot damn this is good. I don't know why but Hong Kong always seems to make the most brutal, unflinching action and horror movies.

"We haven't seen any new pictures of Monte!" Yeah so. The thing is I still take about a million a day, they just all look like this.

A supremely blurry tuxedo kitten rolling around on a rug, blissfully attacking a toy mouse.

The same kitten, still rolling around. He is so blurry you can barely make out his face.

Your periodic reminder that the decision to pursue a professional ballet career happens at similar or earlier age to most youth gender affirming care and has significantly more lifetime impact on peer socialization, how the body looks and overall health than social transition and puberty blockers.

I am so tired of Jonestown being a stock reference for “haha, you’re in a cult.” 918 people died, most against their will, and still it has become shorthand for how stupid you think someone is. It's the McDonald's hot coffee incident of mass death — universally referenced, entirely misremembered.

This bundle is another I'm involved in, and it's one of those "big ask, big reward" bundles in that it has a high up-front cost but more books per dollar than most stuff. If you care about owning your own files, bundles are a great way to accumulate a digital library!

I‘m looking for a book that... ...will fill me with awe and terror for the natural world. ...will make me distrust every polite smile I see. ...will inspire me to cut down every Flock camera in town. Pictured books include The Writhing, Verdant End, No Trouble at All, and Under a Malevolent Eye.

Your duty today (or tomorrow, since it might be late) is to tell someone something nice, maybe something you're proud of them for. I encourage you to. Because life's short and we only get so many chances to make people smile.

Heart of the Beast is exactly what you'd expect. A sentimental film about a man and his dog having implausible adventures in the beautiful wilderness. 10/10 for what it is. I winced. I cried. I came home and held my dog tight.

My weird girl lit novel got a STARRED REVIEW in Publishers Weekly! 🤩 "Using aliens to explore alienation, SHE ISN'T HERSELF TONIGHT brilliantly turns abduction narratives on their heads. Piper continues to outdo herself.“ out October 27 from Saga! 🛸 www.publishersweekly.com/9781668077122

She Isn’t Herself Tonight
Hailey Piper. Saga, $18 trade paper (256p) ISBN 978-1-6680-7712-2
The latest foray into supernatural horror from Bram Stoker award winner Piper (A Game in Yellow) offers an enthralling twist on the classic alien abduction plot. At age 30, Rabbit (a reclaimed childhood nickname) is eagerly awaiting the return of the aliens, or “Guests,” as she refers to them, that first came for her at age 10 and then again at age 20. She has never felt truly understood, not by her mother, who paraded her around local churches as a child to tell the story of her first abduction—substituting the aliens for angels—nor her recent ex-boyfriend, Leo, who accused her of being “too much work.” As she reels from the breakup, she takes comfort in knowing that the “Guests,” the only ones who have ever made her feel safe and cared for, will be returning soon. Piper mines a lot of tension from Rabbit’s yearning for her abductors, making readers just as anxious for their arrival as Rabbit herself, even as, in the meantime, Rabbit’s body undergoes a mysterious, possibly extraterrestrial transformation. Using aliens to explore alienation, this brilliantly turns abduction narratives on their heads. Piper continues to outdo herself. Agent: Lane Heymont, Tobias Literary. (Oct.)

There have always been humans who thought: 1) The world will end soon 2) It will happen in a cool, exciting way 3) It’ll happen to me personally 4) I’ll be a martyred prophet, or a warlord, or otherwise special 5) People who don’t see this are lesser “Sexy apocalypse” is a great phrase for that

everyone's going to have to stop leaning on platforms like this to 'find their audience' because the audience is fake and also it doesn't actually belong to you. it belongs to the platform and it will remove you from the equation as soon as they can.

we've never had much reason to articulate this before a.i., but a reason we enjoy literature, art, music, etc. is that we know it is one human mind trying to express something fundamentally human and otherwise inexpressible to another human mind
