It’s sex month- I mean, monster month

Photo of two deeply sexual Paperback Paradise bookmarks. First one reads i only like books that haveGraphic SkeletonSeX Scenes’ accompanied by a woman and a skeleton making out with additional text:
‘aw hell yeah — this is what i'm talkin' about’

Second bookmark features a slyly sexual demon winking at you with the text:
GO AHEAD
slide this bookmark in between them pages all the way down to the crack of that spine cause you know i'm a damn

Please, just stop sending me AI videos of Dad. Stop believing I wanna see it or that I'll understand, I don't and I won't. If you're just trying to troll me, I've seen way worse, i'll restrict and move on. But please, if you've got any decency, just stop doing this to him and to me, to everyone even, full stop. It's dumb, it's a waste of time and energy, and believe me, it's NOT what he'd want.
To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to 'this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that's enough,
, just so
other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop puppeteering them is maddening. You're not making art, you're making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else's throat hoping they'll give you a little thumbs up and like it.
Gross.

And for the love of EVERYTHING, stop calling it 'the future. Al is just badly recycling and regurgitating the past to be reconsumed. You are taking in the Human Centipede of content, and from the very very end of the line, all while the folks at the front laugh and laugh, consume and consume.

Oh I’ve always coveted those!

You and me both, and I think there may be a hotel theme opportunity here.

I wanted Al Lewis to be my grandpa when I was a kid, but I didn’t even dare to dream to be in New Zealand when it happened. MY GRANDPA IS A VAMPIRE is just as cute as you’d imagine but is more sentimental and less saccharine than you might fear. The kids are cool & Lewis was clearly delighted: fun!

My Grandpa is a Vampire from Severin Films. I’m doing my nails later today for those who are judging, thank you.

You gotta appreciate a kid who has a The Lair of the White Worm poster on his wall.

Well they were stuck between an uber-werewolf and a giant dog. That's a ruff neighborhood.

The 1960s pop is a dream, but I totally forgot that The Rentals have a song in this! And it’s been so long, but this movie is creepier than I originally gave it credit. Apologies to all.1

How do I move on? Is it possible?

Giant fucker of a werewolf next to enormous creepy cat and deathly dog. I for one welcome our new giant inflatable overlords.

I love this soundtrack, and it helps plant CAMPIRE TALES into "perfect Sunday afternoon horror movie" territory.

I’m glad Daryl Hannah didn’t inhale or she definitely wouldn’t have gotten SPLASH. #TheLastDriveIn

A tip for actors in a slasher film: Pick a fairly comfy spot to die on. Smashing your face against a log for multiple takes may not be your favorite day. #TheLastDriveIn
