kicked out of the party because i wouldn't stop describing things as "aickmanesque"
Farewell, farewell to Gladstoneβs Library and the surrounding Flintshire crunchyside, where I have spent an incredibly restorative and story-rich seven days as part of the Milford SFF retreat weekβ¦

"For the men, I like to craft a prison. Colours are drained. The noose tightens no matter the knot. To dress up is to stand on the edge of a plateau and see it is but a thin precipice we decided to call the world - as if that keeps us safe."
these are DOPE!!! any plans for a shaman?
suppose I should be quite glad that encountering this line in the wild during peak Hill House tv mania entirely put me off trying it (and subsequent Flanagans)?
frequently I am thinking about his delivery of 'then we cut off her head and drove a stake through her heart' etc
thank you Mr Hopkins for your wonderfully, carefully, casually off-kilter Van Helsing
A screen cap of an article hed with a photo of a chef in a stainless steel kitchen, peaking potatoes. There are 6 additional chefs working in the background. The headline is βDiet of Worms will help us survive climate change, say top chefsβ. The post is a play on the famous Edict of Worms, issued by the Diet of Worms, which condemned Martin Luther as a heretic.
Glad to see weβre addressing the root cause of all of this: Lutherβs heresy

On March 29, 2007, the first trailer for the highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto IV was released on the Rockstar Games website. The site crashed due to high traffic, so several people posted mirrors of the video on different sites. One user on 4chan, Shawn Cotter, linked to the "Never Gonna Give You Up" video rather than the trailer, tricking numerous readers into the bait-and-switch.

A very good thing to do is to pick up and start reading random books others have left out in the library. Today fate placed before me a collection of Elizabeth Enright short stories, and damn! Thatβs nice stuff

As someone who grew up proximal to Milton Keynes, I'd desperately like to see the kind of holistic planning vision that kicked it off applied somewhere, anywhere in the country instead of more unwieldy bolt-ons to already overpopulated areas
I think enthusiasm for it will be spreading virally from the screening! The guy next to me actually ducked and covered his ears as the titular shout began, top stuff
On April 11, 2019, the Israeli spacecraft Beresheet crashed into the Moon during a failed landing attempt.[1] Its payload included several thousand tardigrades (also known as water bears). Initial reports suggested they could have survived the crash landing. We believe the chances of survival for the tardigrades... are extremely high.ββNova Spivack,
hope the tardigrades on the moon are having a good time
A small tree next to an old church tower
This is my friend in Wood Street, the City of London. His closest friend is the other side of St Albanβs Tower
The church was destroyed in the Great Fire of London in 1666 & rebuilt by Sir Christopher Wren
Damaged by bombing during WW2 & the ruins cleared, leaving the tower
Link, (please)!

first Thomas Ha I read! Was really impressed- subtle, careful, heatfelt, effective- and lingering. Still pops into my head now and then
Thank you for writing it! Sincere, curious, bearing witness to something so vast and so often diminished, just like its subject/'s work - a great eulogy
Yes! Felt like this lovely synthesis of All The Draculas- and then enriched motifs already present in the book and original Nos that have preoccupied Mr Egg and perhaps in his opinion been underdeveloped in other adaptations
