I mentioned I was only going to date opera singers from now on, a little too close to my Alexa.
Now I keep getting ads for “Hot Singles In Your Aria”

I know these are dirt cheap online, but something about making your own of anything feels good

Meh-vel Zombies.
Honestly, thought this had the space to be very fun, but wanted to be more Walking dead than Evil dead, and lost ã god 90% of the dark humour that made me love the comics.
But… it’s a Halloween watch.
Now I just need Disney+ U.K. to hurry up with Something Wicked This Way Comes!

Excellent story inspired by Chinese lunar mythology, Chang'E Persists by Joseph Brant, published in SFRA Review's Spring issue. It's the perfect #SFF read this time of the year, this year, when we have Mid-Autumn Festival and (Western) spooky season so close together. sfrareview.org/2025/01/27/c...

Well yes. Because otherwise the sign would have said “we are out of…”, but I hope they noted the additional use of is in their inventory. It’s be aweful to get a shipment of “are”s in, just to have to crack it open to make a “we are out of Is.” sign.

Can’t decide whether these Statue of Liberty rubber chickens that say “squeeze me to hear me scream” are a little too on-the-nose for these times or if they’re perfect

A yellow cardboard carton on a CVS shelf with brightly colored letters that say “squeeze me to hear me scream” and “statue of liberty chicken.” Inside the carton are hot pink, teal, and royal blue rubber chickens with googly eyes rendered like the Statue of Liberty, with their faces distressed and frozen in a shriek. They have tags around their necks that say “squeeze me to hear me scream”
