As of December 1st, I will no longer have insurance because the nearly $400 I would be paying for my work plan is just something I cannot afford any longer. Here’s hoping I can get back on next December (& that nothing big happens in 2026). I hate that so many of us have to do this shit.
Here it comes: the crisis wave of Americans making the tough choice to drop coverage — in the face or rising premiums.

I was the assistant editor on MY OWN PRIVATE IDAHO. I have 9000 stories from that time, and many of them feature this man who passed away this morning, Udo Kier. He would talk about Fassbinder, Warhol and Paul Morrissey for hours. I was so lucky to get to know Udo and he will be missed by so many.

Been playing catch up a lot lately and I finally got to see Guillermo’s FRANKENSTEIN. I thoroughly enjoyed it but I do think its inability to see any kind of fault in the Monster holds it back. My thoughts here: from-the-desk-of-the-horror-chick.ghost.io/quickie-revi...

Digging into the data of what's taking place with Black women unemployment and this graph is pretty damning.
You can see the EXACT month Black women's unemployment begins to splinter and that what hit us FIRST is now coming for all other women. This is #TheDoubleTax.

Just sharing this again...I'm like 30 subscribers away from my goal for 2025 (free & paid). With losing my part-time job, I'd love to be able to focus on what I love while I figure out the rest. Any shares/subs would very much be appreciated. Thanks. 🖤
Anyway, in the wake of the job loss news, I just wanted to share my site because I’d love to get up to 365 subscribers for the year (free & paid) & if you dig what I do, maybe you’ll want to upgrade your subscription someday: from-the-desk-of-the-horror-chick.ghost.io

Yesterday I caught up on a bunch of movies while working. I’ll have some reviews coming out on all of them shortly but I just wanted to shout out MATCH on Tubi because it was like a wonderfully perverse lost episode of The X-Files and this was my face several times while watching it.
