I am a spinner of yarns. Both metaphorically as a writer and literally as a crocheter.

So what time do we think they are not going to release the Epstein files? Not 5 pm? Not by 8 pm? Not by midnight?

Congrats to President Kennedy. Hopefully President Trump will be joining you very, very soon.

It’s going to take decades to scrub the filth of this fucking presidency from our nation. And even then, most of the damage can never be undone.

“Welcome back to the Oscars on YouTube. Paul Thomas Anderson challenged us with his black comedy One Battle After Another. Now you can challenge your friends to one battle after another with brand new DLC for Call of Duty, coming this March. Now, our In Memoriam, sponsored by Tombstone Pizza.”

Yeah, hey, that’s fucking awesome that they decided to possibly extend the ACA breaks and that they did it well after the fucking deadline to register for your plan. This better come with the motherfucking ability to fucking resubmit applications for fucking 2026 or it’s tits on a lawnmower.

Indiana standing up and chanting “We’re better than Ohio! We’re better than Ohio!”

And they are not wrong.

Well. I did it. I cancelled my ACA coverage for next year. Even with the surprise of my useless-as-two-shits Senator Bernie Moreno pitching a plan that featured extensions of the ACA (albeit in a fuck the poor method), neither side is gonna do shit. “Shrug, we tried” doesn’t mean shit.

Here are my Top Ten Reads of 2025.
Please note, because of my weird Loteria style selections, some of these books are from years ago.

Presented in no doubt particular order:
* The Eyes Are The Best Part - Monika Kim
* The Shattering Peace - John Scalzi
* Wind and Truth - Brandon Sanderson

1/3

Instead of Whamaggedon, I hereby declare Carey-ed Away. Whenever you hear All I Want for Christmas is You by Mariah Carey, you lose.

Congratulations, you’re all already dead.

Again. Big shout out to @emilyhughes.bsky.social and her supreme 2026 horror book release list at Read Jump Scares. My future reads list expands exponentially every time. A veritable feast! Only wish there was someone equally cool who would do that for sci-fi and fantasy.

Harrison Butker missing a field goal is a Christmas movie.

The biggest cinematic question this holiday should not be whether or not Die Hard is or isn’t a Christmas movie.

It’s how in the fuck did the Gremlins not just multiply infinitely since they were running around in the snow?

I’ll accept the goddamn usurious increases from Netflix if they finally open up the entire HBO Max library. All the damn seasons of all the shows. No more season 1, season 2, season 33 bullshit. Free the beasts!

I lost Whamaggedon on November 26th. Before fuckin Thanksgiving. I feel like one of those fortunate ones evaporated in the initial nuclear blast.

Christmas Christmas is a Christmas Christmas Christmas.

Listening to Roderick Thorp’s Nothing Lasts Forever, the novel that was the basis for Die Hard, as an audiobook both counts as reading a book and a Christmas story.

Halloween is a Christmas movie.

Christmas is hard, die a movie.

Gaze upon this absolute unit. Waffles made with stuffing, herbed butter, cranberry sauce, smoked turkey, a loaded potato pancake, gravy, and French fried onion.

Nation breathlessly awaits the political identity of cowardly shooter in order to blame/defend their own beliefs.

I remember when writing for Pajiba we would be asked to do best of lists and I would always choose my entries with the intent of inflammatory ragebait. Because there is no other purpose for ranking shit other than to make people get furious.

Usually, when Thanksgiving shopping, we struggle to hit $25 in order to get a discounted turkey. This year, at fucking ALDI (which is cheaper and more wonderful than all others), we hit $40. And we did not buy a turkey this year. It was all side dishes.

The only copy of a book available at my library was in large print. My friends. I feel like I’m sitting in the front row of a movie theater watching a foreign film with subtitles.
