Madeline Sims-Fewer and Dusty Mancinelli’s β€˜Honey Bunch’ Tries and Tries Again Madeline Sims-Fewer and Dusty Mancinelli’s β€˜Honey Bunch’ reminds us of the lengths we’ll go to in order to save and preserve our loved ones.

So it's Friday and there's 17 copies of POPCORN DISABILITIES left on Amazon. If you've read the book I would πŸ’— if you could leave it a review, either on Amazon or Goodreads! These help give more eyeballs on the book and hopefully get it to people who need it.

My most niche joke in a long, long time. Sammo Hung plays 3 roles and plays mahjong in The Gambling Ghost.

It is a kung fu horror-comedy!

I stayed with you all, but stopped watching early. It's really good, but I am just too raw for the bleakness right now.

Workers clearing the slums of London’s Sidney Street & Clarendon Street c.1931 mark the last stages of their work by burning effigies of the vermin that had infested the old buildings. There’s something very powerful & ancient & Fortean about this & someone has surely spun a horror tale out of it.

And going with talkies was a conscious choice, too.

What I'm saying is that you never want me to do a ranked list.

If you need to read this, soak it in.

It's always been this way. We always had to make ourselves. Just some folks had a tougher run of it. Maybe still do. I can only hope they keep fighting for it.

TROLL 2 is the most TROLL 2 that TROLL 2 can be, and for TROLL 2, that's admirable.

Thanks @1an0maly.bsky.social and #cinejanes for that awesome, transspecies, feminist manifesto of hard-hitting existentialist Truth. I actually loved it, once I gave in to the Austrian psychic ass-whipping it required. #thewall
