THANK YOU to so many wonderful people - many I haven’t seen in years, or even over a decade - for coming to Gallery 5 to help celebrate 21 years of Hindu Pez. ILY.

THANK YOU Gallery 5 staff and my supporting acts for working sonic magic + @jay4d3v4.bsky.social for your behind the scenes help.

Zohran is stone cold man. Putting out an ad in Arabic after all the Islamophobic shit that’s been thrown his way? Pure swag.

Dems don’t need to copy his politics or even necessarily his campaign strategy, they need to learn how to grow a fucking spine.

We found more than 170 incidents since the start of Trump’s second term. Americans have been kicked, dragged and held for days without access to lawyers.

i do hope Cognetti keeps making movies, found footage or otherwise. while imperfect, this was absolutely better than 825 Forest Road.

should you watch it? if you're already a fan, you may enjoy it, but it's absolutely not going to win you over otherwise.

the Hell House franchise are comfort movies for me. i've watched them dozens of times. will i watch this again? probably, and while some of the movie's flaws might soften over time, i don't think i'll ever be happy with the ending.

it isn't a conclusion at all, it's an introduction to continue making movies. why advertise this as the end if you aren't going to conclusively end it? that's cheap, and i imagine was a big factor in why so many of the people that had negative reviews felt so poorly about this after watching.

also, if you advertise a movie as the conclusion of the franchise, call it Lineage, and base the plot around explaining why so many of the people and events are connected, you should actually explain it. without spoiling too much, this movie absolutely ends on a massive cliffhanger.

it's scary in the other films because you never see it move; the camera turns away, and then returns, and the Clown is in a different position. when you know it's going to move and then you see it happen, you feel absolutely nothing at all.

it's like someone watched the other four movies in rapid succession and made their own sequel without taking time to consider some of the things that made the others work. the best example is the Hell House Clown, one of the most ubiquitous parts of the franchise.

i didn't hate it. i'm probably more forgiving about this kind of thing than most, but i liked it. i definitely enjoyed it more than Cognetti's other foray into not-found-footage, 825 Forest Road. that being said, both the change in format and some of the story choices made it feel like a fan sequel.

i wasn't able to see Hell House LLC: Lineage in theaters, but it's on AMC+/Shudder now. as a big fan of the franchise, i was disappointed that so many of the reviews i saw of what's been advertised as the conclusion for this franchise were entirely negative. i kept as open a mind as possible, and...

feeling crushed to learn about D'Angelo's passing. what an absolute legend.

they arise from sense perception, oh scion of bharata, and one must learn to tolerate them without being disturbed.

I love being in the woods and not having to know how the housing market is doing. “Have you seen these interest rates lately?” No, I’m in the woods

revolutionary for my work-life mental health was understanding that i didn't have to answer teams calls when i was in the middle of something. have something to talk to me about? put some time on my calendar. i'm not dropping what i'm doing just because you've decided it's urgent.

Just a reminder before the “big announcement” today.

Autism was discovered in 1911 and the modern definition of Autism came in 1943.

Tylenol wasn’t widely used until the 1950s.

Anyone trying to tell you that Tylenol causes Autism isn’t someone that should be taken seriously.

Got the coolest fucking shirt at Charlottesville Pride today.

Important to remember that everyone involved in renaming the DoD to the Department of War is afraid to take the subway.

i don't make the rules i'm just here to remind you that it's your duty as an American to tell anyone celebrating the name change from "the Department of Defense" to "the Department of War" that it's absolutely quintessential tiny dick energy.

i don't think #TheConjuringLastRites is going to win over any new fans but if you've already enjoyed the series it's a treat and absolutely worth seeing on the big screen.
