The Pallbearers Club

Attack of the 50ft Indian

I did a whole reel with about 20 book recommendations on Instagram for books that are Wes Anderson coded. A few examples: Attack of the 50ft Indian which would be stop animation @sgj.bsky.social and the Pallbearers Club @paultremblay.bsky.social with mixed-media visual scene cuts

Beyond honored my novella The Mystery of the Pale King (via
@timberghostpress.bsky.social) is one of @grimdarkmagazine.bsky.social's Best Reads of 2024. Grimdark is a bucket list publication for me and to be recognized by them is surreal and incredible.

An underrated reason ASOIAF hooks people is that Martin is an exceptional horror writer.

highly recommend the audiobook

I keep thinking about 3D printed chicken

The Wishing Pool is amazing

The audiobook was my life for 3 days straight

regular and special editions of Coffin Moon

Coffin Moon by @keithrosson.bsky.social is called the best modern vampire story ever by @stephenking.bsky.social I saw Joe Hill on his King Sorrow tour (which is a new favorite book), he had big praise for it too. They are not wrong. This book is a modern classic

The Thing (1982) is a Thanksgiving movie.

Thought of it while prepping a Friendsgiving turkey today.

„Quiet, Piggy!“ Just think about that for a minute, and what it means to live in a time when a President can assault a woman in public like that without any consequences.
It‘s quite a testimony to the age of regression we live in.

Comey: "I'm grateful the court ended the case against me, which was a prosecution based on malevolence & incompetence... I was inspired by the career people who refused to be part of this travesty. It cost some of them their jobs, but it preserved their integrity, which is beyond price"

Love, books, music, movies, mutual aid, and community. Photo is a rack of vintage clothes from a craft fair I went to

My husband says SGJ is like the Keanu Reeves of Horror and I don’t think he’s wrong about that

Such a good sport! Alfalfa for the Buffalo and a burrito for you. Also, you need to see this 🤣

Thank you, Greg!

One of my all time favorite albums from a favorite band! And I love that song! Circle 8 is my fav from that album and I like Sable, fAble a lot too
