I never realized how much I wanted to watch a throwdown between a slimebag crooked lawyer and a self-righteous religious hypocrite.
This is about to be one of the nastiest fights ever put on TV.
Watching the new Carrie series and I'm actually liking it more than I expected. The characters feel like they have space to breathe, not just be one thing. Carrie herself feels like the kind of kid these teachers haven't seen since their school days, if that. But you can't help but like her.
Favorite moment so far has to be Sue & Tommy studying. Her mom walks in, Tommy throws himself off the bed and accidentally kicks her in the face. Not enough to actually hurt, but enough that we cannot ignore what's going on. They also cast the perfect actress to play Sue's mom. Uncanny resemblance.
There's no way that was in the script, but it adds this chaotic bit of realism I absolutely love.
Also, Margaret White going from no social interactions to retail cashier is just....poor woman. She's famously not known for being stable and this would try the patience of Mother Theresa.
A surprisingly common new horror subgenre is what I like to call "Fucking Rich People Horror".

There's almost always a hunting aspect. Some are great fun, some just okay. There's always some catharsis though.
Finally watching V/H/S
Planning to start a Shudder trial this October-
WTF IS THIS SHIT?
We open with sexual assault and mindless violence. Are we having fun yet?
And another sex tape.
And more b&e. Oh great, let's watch the SA again. $50 for....please kill these guys soon.
It's like BTS at Bang Bros. Thanks, I hate it. Something painfully tragic better be coming for these boys.
Wow, nothing is off-limits here. Lovely. Please tell me these tapes will turn any VCR into a death beam? I hate dealing with these guys.
Channel 3 brings me back....
Reasons I'd die in a horror movie:
I need glasses to read anything more than four feet away. But I usually don't wear them because it hinders my vision when reading. I could see the killer's face and then fail to pick out which of my fellow survivors I saw.
💫REUPLOAD💫
I posted this yesterday already and 8 hours later, in bed while falling asleep, I noticed I uploaded a version with an entire render pass and feedback from the AD missing. 😭�

@deadmeatjames.bsky.social needs to check out Widow's Bay. It's like if the cast of Parks & Recreation lived at Crystal Lake. This poor mayor is running around a cursed island trying to keep the lights on while dodging dozens of haunts and islanders who switch between Pawnee locals & Crazy Ralph.

Out of all the ones I painted for this set, this is my favourite. 🥰Just a bunch of ponies having a good time. ♥️

This was an incredible GenCon that was WAY overbooked for me, but I can't think of a single thing I regret doing!
I'll be back on the grind soon with new videos and the online Fey Train launch, but for now, I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who stopped by the booth or shared a kind word!
I know hating on/blaming Agamemnon is pretty trendy, but I was curious to see what the "historical record" (such that we have) says about him.
I've been trying to read this section for 20 minutes because it goes from zero to 180mph seemingly in every sentence and I keep needing to pause.
Hoo boy.
This is one of my favorite paintings and it currently doesnt exsist on the internet. Its in a private collection so you cant see it in a museum and its impossible to get a print of. Ive had it saved to my phone for years from the original French auction site listing that no longer exists.
"Do not attempt what you're about to see at home."
"We're what you call 'experts'."
They always told us that in a way that made you want to become an expert. Science seemed so cool on Mythbusters, even as we also saw how dangerous it could be.
My favorite aspect of Carl & Donut is the underlying story of a man and his cat. Cats are puzzling critters. If they decide they don't like you, very little will change their mind. If they decide they like you, the same.
Like it or not, Carl is Donut's human. His neck is where she sleeps. Forever.
Carl needs Donut. Is she a bit much? No, she is a LOT much. But she keeps him grounded. Keeps him from disappearing inside his own head. And more than once she's kept him alive, in more than one way.
I don't think either of them really say how much they need each other, but they do.
I have some issues with ATLA s2 on Netflix. I really wanted Zuko Alone to be a standalone episode like it was previously. Cutting back & forth between him and everyone else hurt the momentum.
I do have to give props to Lei's actress and her monologue.
You can feel Zuko's blood run cold as he puts together the horrible truth.
"I ran out because I thought it'd be safer if they saw we had children."
Dallas Liu is holding up half of this show on his shoulders. Zuko's story is so rich, they can do new things and still hit hard.
The way he blames Iroh was unexpected and cut deep. If Iroh hadn't broke at Ba Sing Se. If he'd taken the throne. If he hadn't fallen apart and let Ozai usurp him. None of this would have happened to him.
The original show never called Iroh out for any of that, but it's all true. That's what hurts.
Goblin Slayer Abridged is so good it keeps making me want to go back to the manga. Then I remember the manga.
This could have been one of the all-time great dark fantasy stories. It adapts so many aspects of D&D so well.
Except, oh yeah, THE R4PING.
I'm not gonna pretend it's the first or only dark fantasy series to show it. But the way it's done here is less Berserk and more like one of the Spit On Your Grave sequels. A little too much delight in the most despicable of acts.
These victims are literally treated like tools, for exploitation.
Not just one time, every time. It's the worst side of anime polluting everything around it.
Why watch the abridged? I sometimes wonder if I should. "Support the official release" has a bad taste here. Maybe I encourage stealing views from the official release. Give me the fantasy of what could be.
I really wanna see Daredevil and Shang-Chi throw down. I also really wanna see Matt and Sean sit down and talk about their daddy issues.
Why must they be on opposite sides of the country? I know, I know, plot stuff, yada yada, portals, whatever.
I want them to just randomly run into each other.
Matt's dad was a small time thug, a single father, a boxer who lost more than he won, and he wanted to be better. He's the kind of grounded character we don't get in Marvel much anymore.
Wenwu was a warlord who found love and actually put his past behind him. Until he lost his wife and fell again.
Seeing a bunch of Bears & Ians posting in clips from #Obsession like "if you're not gonna play, pass the controller!"
Don't realize she isn't the controller, *you* are. And she will break the fingers of anyone who tries to touch her controller.
You are not in control ❤️
The incels aren't claiming this movie for their fantasy. This is their nightmare and will be treated as such.
The scumbag manosphere creeps don't get it either. The core of this movie is a committed relationship where they have no control and no power unless they end themselves.
There's no option for killing her. She loves you too much to have anyone take her away. And it doesn't matter if you think you can overpower her. She feels no pain and holds nothing back. If she claws out your eyes and bites off your d*ck she still loves you. 60 years of monogamy and solitude to go.

Every person who says they want a girlfriend like this, I ask, "what's the verdict on cat?"
And that's the Honeymoon Phase, people. No friends, no going out alone, no boys nights, and if you leave her alone....best case she leaves a mess all over the floor. Worse case in your car.
Some very fun sticker designs I did for our kofi postcard/sticker club featuring the eyes of the love interests from @skellygraves.bsky.social's novels, inspired by the lover’s eye jewelry of 18th-century England 👁💖
