Horror, music, books, and all the weird places they intersect. Music editor of The Pitch. Co-host of the Carnage Report. Also, cats. 💀🎵📚
We've moved into the "drinking THC sodas & watching weird live videos on YouTube" portion of the evening.

For the record, this Looner Mocktail Mule is heavy on the ginger & cardamom. I'd drink it sans weed. Pairs well with Blood Incantation, Deafheaven, Pink Floyd, & this book about Nirvana.

Unicorn Girl has completely overtaken everything today except household chores, cooking, & cuddling cats, because those are all things I can do while listening. It's totally trashy, which is why I need this right now. podcastreview.org/review/unico...
Unicorn Girl: One In a Million, or Just Another Con?
Unicorn Girl traces Candace Rivera’s glittering scams, from Facebook fame to failed heroics, in Charlie Webster’s noisy true-crime podcast.

The last 7 words are correct, but not how she thinks.
Pirro: "Mr President, there is in this room a group of people who love you, who believe in you, and who are so proud to be in this Oval Office and to be part of this amazing day because you have changed the course of America."

HYPED! There was a great long-read in WIRED a few years back, but a doc would be wildly up my alley.

Growing as a person evidently means I can be happy for positive life developments from people for whom I do not care.

Good for them. Like, honestly. Glad you have an apartment & glad *you* have a cute baby, even if you annoy the absolute hell out of me.

Calling in to work because "the kittens need me to keep them warm" is a valid excuse, right?

Alternate reasons:
* Everything hurts from shoveling.
* It's gonna take forever to warm up the CR-V.
* How busy will we be, really?
* I don't wanna.
* Deadlines.

Seconded, while also noting this is so horny, it makes @midnightpals.bsky.social seem chaste. In a good way.
Finished @bitterkarella.bsky.social's "Moonflow". Excellent bizarre queer raccoon-riddled mushroom mayhem. So cool to see the joy & humour that Karella puts into Midnight Pals shining in longform writing, even (especially) when describing loathsome characters (cops). It's good & you should read it
