I approve! More creative writing about cryptids!

Hey Andrew Quinn, @darrenmooney.bsky.social & @joeykeogh.bsky.social of The 250! FINALLY saw Halloween Ends & I agree with you. It's a big swing, little long, but brilliant. Misunderstood by detractors! Unsettling daylight kills, too.
Thank you kindly.

Yer welcs! One of my faves. Agree about third acting being underdeveloped.
Looove to sit in a session down the right if it's a good fit.

Not done yet, but I keep wanting to yell, "The abandoned wheelchair in Session 9 is an homage to the demonic wheelchair in The Changeling (1980) with George C Scott!"
But maybe the boyos will get there...;)

Digging @troyescamilla.bsky.social & @thescreamqueer.bsky.social on the Dark Night of the Podcast, Episode 161, discussing Session 9 (2001). Podbean.
One of the finest character-as-setting flicks with a robust cast.
Watched it twice the same day on DVD in 2001.

This isn't what it looks like. Really.

Why the classic Canadian novel Bear remains controversial — and relevant | CBC Radio Marian Engel’s Bear is one of Canada’s most controversial novels. But experts say it’s also one of the most daring and enduring.

Context call: One recalls a certain 1976 novel by Marian Engel—Bear, a Governor General's Award winner. Seriously!

Awesome-sauce.

Oh gods, that's beautiful. Meant to be, maybe.

Awesome. Great to hear from fab newcomer Morgan Beem.

Well—a newcomer to me—as a freelance reviewer of over 20 years, I may also seem a newcomer to new readers who just "dicsovered" me. ;)

Halfway through. Broke for Easter.
But...absolutely digging it.
The story-matching, which John has apologized for, is the glazed chocolate icing on the cake.

COMIC BOOK COUPLES COUNCELING CROSSOVER Worlds collide in a special podcast crossover as Word Balloon teams up with Comic Book Couples Counseling for a funny insightful conversation .

Even More Persistent Bi Myths, Busted We’re busting more bi+ myths with clear, practical answers: identity vs politics, the “prove it” trap, couples seeking women on apps, ageing and labels, and why health gaps are about stigma—not sexual...

Quite enjoyed Give It To Me Bi | Even More Persistent Bi Myths, Busted.

He's here.

The Batman: Dark Patterns tpb is out today from DC. Me, @cleanlined.bsky.social, @treecolour.bsky.social, & @gofrankgo.bsky.social.

Who is the Wound Man?
What is the voice in the tower?
Have the Red Hood Gang truly returned?
And why is Gotham burning?

The Dark Detective is on the case.

Woot!

Say—thank you.

I don't know why but Republicans seem to LOVE giving these little gifts to late night talk show hosts.
