Since “no one can fully live a lie,” the right wing needs absolutely everything to affirm them at all times in order to silence the screams of their own conscience.

Be really nice if they kept that to themselves instead of making it our problem.

Showing normal human reactions to stuff is now transgressive lol.

These morons understanding of horror is so shallow that they’ve haven’t even looked as far back as the Aughts to see that the horror genre is female.

Hang on… what?

It's an irrational fear that you will eventually be murdered by the people you spend all day and night fantasizing about murdering

With the help of the Sandy Hook families, The Onion has reached a long-awaited deal to take over InfoWars.

We've enlisted the help of @timheidecker.bsky.social, who will be InfoWars' Creative Director.

Please stand by for more.

Had a surreal moment back in Feb when I read vol 6 of Balthasar (his exegesis of the OT) with Hailey Piper’s A GAME IN YELLOW (her exegesis of RWC, best horror novel I’ve read this yr) and Christina Faust’s CONTROL FREAK. And then they started dialoguing with each other.

The Hs overlapped. A lot.

What no government funding for research does to a country.

Does droning US citizens count as ‘punching down?’

Could’ve sworn that the Bond ppl were going to get every artist inspired by Lana before they got Lana.

So many of those YA authors found ways to resurrect bigoted tropes that weren’t in the classic work they were ‘correcting.’

I wish I’d made a list because that shit was funny.

yeah this is another part of it, ever since the tumblr days it's become super common to see someone going "this movie is shit because it's too miserable and I'm sick of nihilism and bury your gays" and you click on their profile and their pinned tweet is "MY YA NOVEL 'IN HER BONES' LAUNCHES THI

JD has the juice, it’s just the juice in question is that green stuff in the vat in “Prince of Darkness.”

i absolutely want more pairings of ‘impressive left wing policy achievements’ with ‘appropriately self satisfied smiles’

Rescued from a storage unit. Reading one Spillane was enough to last a lifetime, but hot damn, those covers.

*I don’t know THE LAST TIME I’ve loved etc etc.

I don’t know if I’ve loved a piece both in theme and style as much as I love this. Fucking amazing, holy shit.

Apparently the thing that kept me from hyper-focusing on exercise is the whole ‘getting in the car & driving to a gym’ thing. Since starting body weight and home gym stuff, I’m in danger of this becoming one of my permanent obsessions.

Happy birthday bud!

however much we hate these guys, it's not enough

Holy shit

I also revisited another book in the same vein of ‘chaotic ultra-hardboiled’ that I preferred over Himes back in the day, FAST ONE by Paul Cain. While there is more literary merit than appears at first glance, it’s all sound and fury compared to Himes.

Read Chester Himes’ REAL COOL KILLERS.

I’m mad I slept on him. He writes Harlem like a circle of hell (and somehow gives it a western feel without directly evoking that period?) while the pitch black humor hides an even bleaker pessimism. I keep expecting a Ligotti story to break out at any moment.

You’re always a barrel of laughs, SFF. Never change.

we're all sitting around hoping that, in less than three hours, a demented pedophile game show host decides he doesn't feel like eradicating a whole people from the planet. he's got the means and there's no real counter available.

"Why aren't the 'Genocide Joe' leftists hitting the streets to protest Trump's genocide today like they did when Biden was president? Makes you think, hmmmm?"
