Heard an interesting perspective that a lot of Western folk horror is about the enemy within (reckoning with imperialism, settler-colonialism, collective guilt, etc) while non-Western folk horror is about being attacked from the outside, often via monsters (representing oppressive forces)

Jared Leto should have gone away after My So-Called Life. Perfectly believable as an empty-headed himbo, upon whom teenage girls can project their romantic fantasies. He's not convincing as anything else (plus he's a shitty person).

Under the Pink by Tori Amos. I was delighted on first listen to find it contained a song I'd heard on the radio once and loved but never knew who the artist was.

Also, Either/Or by Elliott Smith. Completely life changing.

on the flip, what did you buy blind on a total whim that turned out to be utterly life affirming?

What albums does everyone regret buying? Loads for me, but the one that really sticks in my mind is K by Kula Shaker, which I forced myself to listen to joylessly several times in the desperate attempt to convince myself I hadn’t wasted my money, and still get cringes of regret about 29 years later.

Seems like a missed opportunity that William Marshall's Blacula and Christopher Lee's Dracula never shared the screen in a crossover event. Think about it: two 6'5" kings with theatrical voices trying to out-vamp each other? The power.

One of those actors who truly seemed like she could play anything, even while always being undeniably herself. She brought weight to even the thinnest of films.

Goodnight to an icon.

Honestly, it’s exhausting that people think Gazans should only ask for help to survive to eat, to stay alive but not to dream, to study, or to rebuild their lives. Wanting education, safety, and a future isn’t greed. It’s being human.

Brings back memories. "Square" was a big failure, at least in terms of transportation.
