THE FACULTY I haven’t seen that in so long love

New stuff in store today (coffin moon has been out but have had to replenish for Book Club display) and I was so good and did not bring home. The one copy we got of the new night of the mannequins. YET.

‼️‼️‼️

All of my hot takes involve teachers. I feel like they shouldn't be hot takes. I don't know why anyone would be surprised by this. Evil.

For those unaware about the significance of the light poles during the song El Apagón it’s because of the Puerto Rican power system and the constant black outs. There have been a lot of protests on the island over this.

If you used AI to write it, I don’t want to read it. Simple as that.

I love Maine it's my "home" state too have fun Go Hawks!

He's been named one of the "writers shaping horror's next golden age" & generally getting noticed all over the place for his unforgettably dark stories - and he's joining us next Saturday to talk about his forthcoming novel, Wretch. @ericlarocca.bsky.social is our special Love & Death guest! 🧵⬇️

Thank you I haven’t tried that one yet!!

Shallow post. I still continuously mask when I’m at work. I am desperate for a mascara that isn’t going to be all over my face by the end of my shift. I always look embarrassing and for whatever reason waterproof mascara absolutely irritates me so bad so that’s out. Suggestions?

I’ve been meaning to reach out to you about joining us for Book Club. Can I message you later? I’m heading off to work right now, but I’m thinking this would be a great one to do for Book Club if you were interested. I’m so excited. Congrats what a cool title too.

Feral overload. If you know me you know that A I love Hailey Piper and B I love film horror. File under things to live for.

I’m feral over this

4lbs of nightmare. I’m obsessed with her.

I really liked this movie. I know not everyone will, and I can understand why. But it shot for the moon (ha ha ha) and I think it mostly landed. I had minor issues and think that while like the game it's based on there's not a lot of *plot* but 24 hrs later I'm still thinking about it. Effective.

I just want this baaaackkk I love this book and so I have an option other than Horror Movie (no shade we know I live and die by that book) to rec to folks who want something like house of leaves.

The first time I ever heard drive was when time stood still for me.

OMG I LOVE the second one as much as the first for different reasons those are some of my absolute favorites ever.

THIS THIS THIS and how abusers like him manipulate the tired idea of false accusations Keep using it and keep using it to their advantage. It is sickening. There needs to be a reckoning. Her life is ruined and he’s just fucking fine. Disgusting.

Yeah fair , I don’t even know who I follow on Facebook anymore because I don’t use it hardly ever-and don’t have the time to go through my list but like these are active users on Bluesky here and maybe they just need a reminder or maybe I just need to reconsider how I feel about them.

And I’m pissed off I had to even read his bullshit post because if you weren’t out there causing harm, that’s not gonna be your response. Disgusting response. vile.

Yeah gross seeing people I love and respect following this fucker.

Completely understandable I was linking just in case-but I will do some looking around when I get home later and see if they are on any other platforms as well❤️
