The usual suspects are complaining about #Ciri being the protagonist of the #Witcher 4. The funny thing is not even their complaints being stupid (and they are) but it's Ciri. She's already the co-protagonist in the books. It's like complaining about a Leia-led Star Wars game (and they would).

I maintain its infinity more entertaining and fits with HPL's sense of humor that #Cthulhu has no idea that anyone is worshiping him and is just waking up from a long nap to someone hitting him with a steamship. #CallOfCthulhu #horror @ericmalikyte.bsky.social @davidniallwilson.com

The thing about dwarvish women with beards is its from one line that Tolkien said that the two sexes could be confused and no one thought, "He means they're both small and stocky" versus "they have beards" #LordOfTheRings #MiddleEarth #books #fantasy

Random Thought: Is AI music part of a secret plot to destroy the Honmoon? #KpopDemonHunters

Found out there is going to be a new novel in the Drizzt series from a random post I saw on twitter of someone complaining the main character was a woman. The main character is Breezy Do'Urden, Drizzt and Catt-Brie's daughter. Might have the check it out at some point in the future.

I bet 90GP the plot will be that Breezy thinks she needs to get out of her parents shadow and finds out they didn't have it as easy as she thought. Mind you, she's throwing shade on her mom. Cattie Brie is a legendary hero in her own right.

When will he actually PAY, though? Because he hasn't and it's been years.

CTPhipps @ctphipps.bsky.social · 2h

I'm not sure he's lost as no one will actually make him pay and keep blocking attempts to do so.

CTPhipps @ctphipps.bsky.social · 2h

Alex still hasn't paid a single cent to the families of his victims. The judge even blocked the Onion deal. Until he's forced to do so (and hopefully Infowars belongs to its ideological opponents), it's not justice.

Probably the best Cthulhu horror novel I've read aside from THE BALLAD OF BLACK TOM by Victor Lavalle. #horror #cthulhu #lovecraft #books

Everything about Mike Johnson is suspicious ranging from the fact he doesn't have a bank account to the fact his house is a designated spiritual retreat to the fact that he covers up for numerous sex abuse scandals before Epstein. At heart, he's a fraud and conman who hides behind religion.

Fun D&D facts: Ed Greenwood had brothels be much higher class in the Realms due to prostitution being a respectable trade outside of slaving cities. Then TSR went crazy over the Satanic Panic and forced him to rename them festhalls. #DND #DungeonsAndDragons #tabletopgaming

No lie, the first ever hate mail I received as an author was a review that yelled at my lead for a passage where he said the secret to getting laid in college was to have the girls have a good time too. Apparently women enjoying dates and sex too made it gay. :o #SupervillainySaga #humor #books

If I develop the power to shapeshift as a vampire, I want to look like this. @davidniallwilson.com

I admit I was skeptical of the Vampire Chronicles adaptation with all the changes but now I'm actually excited and hope they make it all the way to Body Thief. Afterward? Ehhh, no. But that would be 8 seasons worth. #InterviewWithAVampire #horror

Just finished The Tree of Azathoth by @ctphipps.bsky.social. Going straight to Tales of an Eldritch Wasteland next. Loving this series so far. Awesome stuff.

Awesome, glad you enjoyed it. I'm working on the 4th and final installment right now (Tales is more side stories that develop the world and fill in some of the blanks like CA to TOZ and TOZ to TOA).

I maintain Charlaine Harris is a secret gamer given all the Sheriffs and Princes in her vampire books. :) Absolutely a bunch of the writers for True Blood were when Caine and Lilith got nods.

It's a fantastic noir novel set in LA. Fans of horror investigation should check it out.

Cthulhu Grimoire is making waves today! No idea what's driving these sales, as I didn't do any marketing last week! #cthulhu #books
