I tell everyone who asks me to back this guy that I'm not donating a dime to their Trojan horse. It doesn't go over well, but I'm well past giving a damn.

MAGA is also ideologically and psycho-politically incapable of moderating. It is a hysterical movement that exists in a constant state of imagined emergency. There is no room for compromise or restraint. Every crisis, every defeat only heightens their sense of being under siege.

Well thanks, Vinz. I thought that would be one of those secret, unexplained terrors I would quietly take to my grave. 😆

Ack!

They're pretty large though, right? I mean, I thought I ran over an insect crossed with a crustacean. And if we're not talking about the same thing, I don't know what the heck it was.

What ARE those things? 👀 I ran over one in the driveway a few years back. Really creeped me out.

I really resented having to get up to read that. #TheLastVideoStore #FrightClub

Happy Women in Horror month. I'm seconding @richardkadrey.bsky.social here - @sadiehartmann.bsky.social has written a great guide. Any time someone says, 'women can't wrote great horror' please beat them senseless with this book.

Then use it to give them papercuts before dropping them in a lye pit.

In the last decade, the Atlantic has not platformed a single trans person to speak about issues affecting them or the broader trans community. Not a single one. Yet, they have monthly screeds by Helen Lewis and endless money to pay random transphobic grifters to pump stuff like this out.

Since I live here, I can guarantee you the streets of Los Angeles are not filled with people thanking this imbecile for jackshit. Quite the opposite.

States Move to Limit Access to H.I.V. Treatment

I vividly remember arguing w/a couple of gay men much younger than me about the need to avoid infection at all costs. They thought contracting HIV now would be nbd b/c of access to meds.

Me: "What if something were to happen that cut off your access to those meds?"

Them: "That won't ever happen."

At this point, we're a news cycle away from Trump floating that U.S. military action in Iran might go all the way through the first Tuesday in November.

After mentioning four dead US servicemen Trump starts talking about his ballroom.

In a competitive field, this may be one of the most offensive things he has ever done.

The fck is this supposed to be? A speech? An address to the nation? Anything at all but more time mooning us on camera?

💉 THREAD OF THE DAY

Plotkin, one of the true “titans” of vaccine development, knew the horrors that would happen if RFK Jr became health secretary

“I did everything I could when Kennedy was up for confirmation, to convince people like Senator [Bill] Cassidy to vote against him — and failed”

That watch was crazy, but I really enjoyed it. Goodnight, all. #FrightClub #Feast

Goddamn, these things are ugly. The creature effects are award-worthy in comparison to those rags we had to endure in last night's movie. #FrightClub #Feast

We're headed for an early demise. Chop chop!

Why is it that nobody thinks to wait till daylight to see if that offers any advantage? #FrightClub #Feast

"I am upper-case fucked."
I'd say so.

Oh Henry, you think we're a formidable species? 😂 #FrightClub #Feast

How the heck am I not familiar with this movie? #FrightClub #Feast

Wow, they didn't even try with the creature effects. #FrightClub #Larva

Bah. I'm going to go start the dishwasher. #FrightClub #Squirm

We were arguing about whether to keep the back door open a while longer. She's cold, and I'm into ventilation. Could've been worse. 😝

How the hell did this app pick up part of a personal conversation in my living room? 😳 #FrightClub
