David Cronenberg's cameo in Gus Van Sant's To Die For may be the sexiest jumpscare in cinematic history.

Still the most shocking moment in television history

I love how Blood just nonchalantly shares this incredible bit of world-building.

This exchange from the unaired teleplay “Blood’s a Rover” (Harlan Ellison’s sequel to “A Boy and His Dog”) is some of the funniest shit I’ve ever read and like some proto Fallout questline.

“Blood’s a Rover,” by Harlan Ellison. Five out of five stars. It’s insane how much the post apocalyptic genre owes to this relatively short collection of stories.

- The "screamers" in the Vic and Blood series = the radiation ghouls in Fallout

- Roving packs of vicious gangs

- A dog companion

- Insane, offbeat, and very twisted sense of humor.

- Weird, underground communities that are even creepier than the communities above ground.

Just finished reading Harlan Ellison's collection of stories "Blood's a Rover," featuring A Boy and His Dog as well all the prequels and sequels featuring Vic and Blood and wow, it is insane how many world-building ideas Fallout got from Harlan's writing.

What are you guys watching? 🤣 #FrightClub

It has become impossible for me to read the adventures of Vic and Blood and not imagine that I'm reading a really dark iteration of Peabody's Improbable History.

If they settle, I think it's an impeachable offense for both him and the AG.

Serious question, I'm not joking: wtf is that thing on the left?

Ah, gotcha!

OMG the adorable rat is perfect -- you captured the spirit of this scene in Del Toro's film perfectly 🖤

Was reading “Eggsucker” (set in the world of “A Boy and His Dog”) and uh…apparently Harlan Ellison predicted the Trump presidency?

i can't help but think about 10 or 11 years ago when conservatives insisted that obama was uniquely anti-catholic because his administration thought that catholic-led orgs could just fill out a form if they didn't want to cover contraceptives in their health plans for employees.

WARREN: I want to understand how slashing healthcare for families so Meta gets a $3b tax cut is a 'really good outcome for the American public'

IRS CEO BISIGNANO: I don't see the two as correlated

W: Those tax cuts were paid for by pushing people off their healthcare. Did you not follow that?

vought thinks it is morally righteous to let people starve in the street, full stop, and orients his decision making around affirmatively trying to make it happen

Exciting news: my poetry chapbook Thorns: A Book of Poems will drop on May 1 on Amazon and Barnes and Noble, featuring exclusive cover art by surreal artist Welderwings! Sign up for my email newsletter (link below) for further updates and sneak previews! 🥀✨

He will be the one who rots in jail the longest, I believe.

Of all the Trump toadies, I have the most confidence that Vought will rot in jail.

Oooh I'll check that one out next!

Finished @authorstaceykade.bsky.social’s science fiction horror novel Cold Eternity and loved every minute of it. The glimpses and final reveal of the monster stalking the spaceship Elysian Fields — along with the reveal of its true identity — made this particularly haunting.

This thread is horrifying.
