Our movies of “The Call of Cthulhu” and “The Whisperer in Darkness” are once again available to stream on Amazon prime, at least in the US. And on Tubi, and of course on DVD from our store with fun bonus features!

The item from a Kickstarter I backed is available in their shop today but there's no eta for when they'll ship the batch i already bought. The way it's been handled has soured me on the whole product tbh.

Count for what? There's a difference between making sure vulnerable people are cared for vs allowing people doing evil to buy pizza.

These are not vulnerable people. They don't live here and are free to go. Their money is absolutely tainted.

My #dnd character is Going Through It- she was freaked out by an unknown condition and about to start doing violence until our Investigator calmed her down by walking through past events to learn the cause. Reader, she's in love. Luckily, he's played by my husband!

I know almost nothing about Roblox but my little brother just told me that's what he's into now. I wanna believe it's better than playing CoD but... That's a low friggin bar. I wish he'd play more age appropriate stuff, I'll even play it with him! He's 10, let's play Crash Bandicoot and Spyro.

Also I'll second OPs comment on a bidet- just do it it's so much cleaner. Though if you live where it gets real cold, get the heated option 🥶

I'm still trying to get out of the "I'm going to be moving again in a few years so I don't need permanent things" mindset, but I'll compromise on most things, except my car, my hair, shoes, and mattress. My car isn't fancy but it's a good car and I want it to last forever.

here’s an interesting prompt: what are the things you’ll compromise on with regard to price, and what are the things you won’t?

GHOULLIKEHELLMACHINE @golikehellmachine.com · 6d

totally fair, i have things i will compromise on (undershirts, drum heads, coffee) and things i won’t (boots, drum sticks, soap/shaving products)

⚠️ PSA:

Andy Ngô is a fascist, stochastic terrorist, and should be sued into oblivion for his propagandistic actions that have resulted in Portland being labeled a “war-ravaged city”, which contributed to Portland being invaded & assaulted by DHS & ICE.

I certainly hadn't thought of doing that.

A screenshot of an Instagram ad. The background is a picture of the iconic Portland Oregon sign with the white stag on the white stag building. Overlaid is the following text:

THINGS TO DO IN PORTLAND
(That you haven't already thought of)

Hike through real lava tubes at Ape caves

Explore Portland's hated underground with a tour of the Shanghai Tunnels

Rent a hot tub boat and cruise down the Willamette River

Start earning up to $2,400/mo donating sperm

The ad is for "spermbankdonors".

I want a new dress for my Halloween costume but I can't find one I like that isn't $400 *sad bat noises*

Fall in Portland is the BEST. There are so many cool cafes to enjoy a nice drink while it's raining.
