Well, Predator: Badlands is basically a Disney Star Wars movie. Complete with lightsabers, cute creature sidekick, wholesome humor and even Weyland synthetics who acted like Stormtroopers. Meh.

I’ve always loved Jucika. She very often demonstrates themes of Satanic Witchery!

Remember friends, keep Satan in Halloween!

Getting the fog effect on our Altar dialed in.

Bookshelf featuring mostly works of Anton LaVey

Last night I finished a large project in the remodeling of our Altar Room. I cleaned up and then shut off the lights, and as I was closing the door the light from the stairs landing caught our collection of Magus LaVey’s work, making for a nice “shelfie.”

Satanic library

Here’s the wall color I’ve chosen for the Altar Room, which has been under remodeling for a few months. Partially a nod to TSR by ASL but magenta also has significant magic/psychological properties that are fitting for this space.

Kali and Caturday. She's a good pillow.

Very cool find at Scooter's in Starkville MS. Factory sealed original Southern Culture On The Skids' Dirt Track Date with remnants of original Tower Records price tag. Had to grab it!

Incredible. I'm not sure if I've ever mentioned it, but I'd love to get some bass lessons from you!

Side by side prices for Blackman medical cabinets

Scored this beautiful Blickman medical cabinet for a mere $475. Given the average price of new ones l'd say that's a steal. (Drawers and shelves were included, just removed during photo.) Now to get this solid steel behemoth up the stairs to my studio where it can serve as a new supply cabinet.

Cat and inverted crucifix

Happy Caturday from Calliope!

Cemetery wedding.

Calliope in her "hammy" (hammock). My lap.

Other social media platforms been unsuccessful. Can anyone on Bluesky recognize where this print behind me might be from?

Spooky library living room.

#wip but recently we scored a 4th bookcase that matched the 3 we have which were purchased around 20 years ago & have been long OOP. Ever since, l've looked for a 4th so that we could arrange bookcases in this room in a "mirror image," which we can finally do. Here's 2 sides of the same room.

Spooky stairs in my spooky house. Cat isn't spooky but she is a monster so she counts.

Not quite finished at the bottom, and needs some paint touch-ups at the baseboards and a good vacuum, but we've finally abolished the hideous decades-old beige carpet on the stairs and have replaced it with a lovely plum color. Our house has two sets of stairs and both are getting this treatment.

Day one of new flooring for the upstairs is complete and it's off to a great start. Yes I do need to clean my baseboards.

Random thought I've had tonight: "oh damnit, I need to move the skeleton in the wall before the floor installers arrive because I haven't had time to do the drywall yet."

It's like an Alfred Hitchcock Presents opening line.

With a filming location from Fulci's The Beyond.

Incredible finally seeing them live. I missed opportunities to see them back in the day and never thought I'd have an opportunity again. #acidbath #nola #neworleans #eyehategod #daxriggs #goatwhore #sammyduet

Magister Slaughter Debunks LaVey Plagiarism Myth in Provocative New Essay - Church of Satan For decades, critics have accused Anton LaVey, founder of the Church of Satan, of plagiarizing The Book of Satan, the fiery opening to his 1969 The Satanic Bible. In his incisive new essay, “Anton LaV...

Anton LaVey didn’t plagiarize "Might is Right". He did what the book tells you to do: Take power and make it your own.
And now we’ve documented it—thoroughly.

Now watching. I keep forgetting about this social media app, haha. But I haven't been very social media-y lately because big exciting things are happening and I'll be flooding platforms with posts soon enough.

Calliope would like to remind everyone that Halloween is only 214 days away so start getting ready unless you're already ready all year long already.

Delightful evening with the wife and Kraftwerk in New Orleans last night. Excellent show!

Went to a lovely botanical gardens yesterday.

Now watching.
