A few days ago I had the chance to watch #ItNeedsEyes by @zackogre.bsky.social & Aaron Pagniano, quite impressive, perfect mix of captivating eerie mystery, jumpscares,(a bit of) gore, delightful queerness and beautiful shots. Hope I can watch it again soon to notice all the details #filmsky #horror

I'm reading two at the moment, Isabella Nagg and the Pot of Basil by Oliver Darkshire (so much fun!) and Some Desperate Glory by Emily Tesh (in audiobook, even cooler than I expected!). I tend to forget how great books I have in my To Read list are by the time I actually start reading them.

The @societyofauthors.bsky.social and other creatives orgs have launched a new report showing the calamitous impact of generative AI on the creative sector. It's doing so much damage.

Late to the party, but I've just finished The Darkness Outside Us by Eliot Schrefer and I loved it, clever, cool sci-fi and also a touching love story, it kept surprising me again and again. I suggest avoiding spoilers for maximum enjoyment. #booksky
