Convalescing from eating too many Twix. Laying in bed, incapable of movement, “Sorry my tummy hurts.” I have Twix sickness. You must never show me candy again. The laundry is undone, the cats are hungry, I recline under blankets. The sweet, sweet Twix allure; betrayal.

Just learned Bugonia is a remake of Save the Green Planet. What?!

Reposting my 2000s Halloween indie rock playlist, on CD or Spotify (link in comments), because I think it is good and you should listen to it.

Various scenes from the movie Bringing up Baby featuring Katharine Hepburn and Cary Grant.

Bringing Up Baby (1938) 🎥

Really liked Good Boy. Original, some legitimate chills and knows not to stretch its premise too far. Hard to be scared, though, when I spent every scene thinking "I want to give the puppy hugs and kiiiiisses."

Veronica giving a sexy smirk with one eyebrow raised

Insanely good album

Thank u 😸

Yes I know he is fat, I’m sorry

Leaving for work picture. Yes I have a poster of Danielle Dax in my bedroom (how dare you).

Helicopter guy is tough, the trick is saving up your mines, but then the drill guys are tougher. And the upgraded block is a must. Tried to beat Bloodborne and got pretty far, but it’s too tough for me. Don’t have the patience and always end up button mashing and dying 🩸🪓👹 I believe in you!

Hardcore is the baseline mode for me, and even then, I have to try to limit myself by not upgrading the gun too much. It's very flexible in letting you dictate the difficulty. Couldn't get past the opening on Village of Shadows, but watched some YT vids on how-to. Fun game to experiment with.

"Shining like a million-dollar trooper" sounds fly as hell.

What the... Billy Joel just threw a stone through my glass house?? I'm going to kill that motherfucker

There’s a little bit of a change to the ending, which at first confused me a little. But when I thought about it, fits the themes well and gives fans of the book a little twist. Jonsson has a bright future.

Watched The Long Walk, surprisingly good! Faithful adaptation of a famously unfilmable book. Cooper Hoffman and David Jonsson are excellent. Wasn’t even expecting to watch in one go, but it draws you in.

Caught Andy Merrill’s Kiff episode in which fun uncle Pat has to babysit. Awesome! Good to hear to hear him again!

Watch The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie | Prime Video Porky Pig and Daffy Duck are Earth's only hope when facing the threat of alien invasion in this richly-crafted, hand-drawn 2D animated adventure that marks the first fully-animated feature-length film in Looney Tunes history.

The Day the Earth Blew Up is ridiculously cheap right now, only 3 bucks! Funny comedy for animation nerds and kids, anyone with a fondness for 90s Animaniacs-style comedy will feel right at home. Way higher joke/hit ratio than you'd think.

Sure, but what about all that ectoplasm on your mirror?

I was lucky enough to interview Dave Ball at a book festival not so long ago. He was very nervous but when you got him onto music, amazing. I told him I had listened to Soft Cell every day on the way to school, radio pressed to my ear. He said, “Did it help?” More than you knew, Dave. RIP

Snickers bar and a metal whistle

Parents, please check your kids’ candy this Halloween. I’ve just found an ancient metal whistle with the inscription “QUIS EST ISTE QUI VENIT" inside a Snickers bar. I blew it and heard a note of infinite distance, and now I’m haunted by a figure in pale, fluttering draperies. Be safe.
