Day 9. Favorite black and white horror film. “Night of the Hunter,” Charles Laughton’s sole directorial effort is a masterpiece. “Chiiiiiiilllllllldren!,” damn, Robert Mitchum is scary AF. #FilmSky #MovieSky #Bales2025FilmChallenge #October #HorrorSky

Nor did he watch Trump/Hegseth address to top military brass last week. This guy has huge blind spot for nation’s current affairs. But, really, he doesn’t have an opinion to give unless Trump gives it to him.

Whoa. Any more dangerous and Big Bird might pop by for a dance or two.

We all know he’s Antifa AF. Snuffy, too.

American Christians of good faith are under violent attack by GOP-led fed gov’t. My entire childhood/teen years I was taught liberals hated Christians. When my beliefs leaned heavy to Left I was told I was “brainwashed” and doomed to hell. I’ll take it if it means respite from the MAGA Army.

"Culture" as in bacteria scraped off a tongue for lab tests?? Was the "friend" specific?? 🤔

One word. So many meanings.

Elephant baby??? Is this a prequel to The Elephant Man??? Cause I got questions…

Took me half sec to get reference. Spot on. And these people *think* they are Indy and Marion. Sickos.

Can we Ripley after these acid-blooded monsters?? I want to see that.

Day 8. Favorite shark horror movie… With "Jaws" too obvious, I go w/ "Sharknado." Because my wife (may she RIP) and I laughed 'til we wept entire watch. Great memory. #FilmSky #MovieSky #Bales2025FilmChallenge #October #HorrorSky

Just got out of my daily Antifa meeting w/ my two cats. Lots of ear rubs. Too little discussion. Next time, maybe…

Exactly. In United States of Trump it would be illegal to even ask about Epstein files, which, of course, never existed. 🙄

Barry Manilow would like a word. (I once met him coming off an elevator. Dude lives under a similar Trumpian layer of makeup.)

Beautifully, succinctly stated. And true.

Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."

I meant “reward” for Johnson, not “prize.” But I guess people know that.

(By “reaction,” I mean story on how show portrayed/highlighted the town, with a slight nod to review/opinion. After first Ep, no one in town ever mentioned that shit again. It was verboten. 😂😂😂) 2/2

Those movie episodes were partially filmed in Monroe, NC, where I lived for a bit. I worked as freelancer for local paper. I was tasked w/ writing reaction to first film. Halfway through premiere, my editor called and said, “Never mind.” I was so thankful to turn that shit off terrible. 1/2

She should! She can demand she be sworn in at that moment. And maybe offer a prize, too: Milkshakes at McDonald's!!

If the biblical God were real, every time that Karoline Leavitt opened her mouth while wearing that cross necklace, the damn thing would have burnt into her skin. "Oh, it buuuurns!"
