Haunted Turnip 🎃

23rd Book of 2026 Intercepts - T.J. Payne A creepy sci-fi horror with a great premise but a sometimes clunky execution. Certainly entertaining, and the story hooked me, but it didn't live up to the hype. #booksky 💙📚 #horror

22nd Book of 2026 Brother - Ania Ahlborn This was what I kicked off my October reading with and damn, it knocked me on my ass. One of the darkest and brutal horror novels I've read in a long while. Great, edge-of-your-seat story, but it won't be for everyone. #booksky 💙📚 #horror

21st Book of 2026 Circe - Madeline Miller I didn't read this for years thinking it was something it wasn't. Turns out, I was an idiot. Fierce Gods, powerful magic, timeless myths, all wrapped up with the most gorgeous prose and captivating dialogue. Absolutely loved it. #booksky 💙📚 #fantasy

20th Book of 2026 Hidden Pictures - Jason Rekulak Honestly, a really fun 'can't-put-it-down-until-I-know-what-happens' read. The flawed protagonist, the set-up, & suspense were all wonderful. A little silly, a little off the rails by the end, but damn entertaining. #booksky 💙📚 #thriller

19th Book of 2026 Lost in the Dark and Other Excursions - John Langan A wonderful collection of dark, atmospheric short stories, even if they didn't always land for me. 'Haak' was my favourite, but almost every tale has an inventive approach to the storytelling. #booksky 💙📚 #horror

AI has ruined the word "prompt" for me

I would describe Canada as a clusterfuck of time zones. We've earned it.

Asking AI to make a case for why you should keep these ungrateful children.

18th Book of 2026 Hyperion - Dan Simmons An absolute masterpiece of science fiction. I've wanted to pick this up for ages, and I wish I had sooner. Each unforgettable tale shines with its own style, all brimming with mystery and rich prose. Can't wait to pick up the 2nd novel. #booksky 💙📚

17th Book of 2026 The Shrinking Man - Richard Matheson For such a simple premise this novel really does a bit of everything; drama, horror, adventure, humour, despair, triumph. Really great stuff. #booksky 💙📚

16th Book of 2026 Small Things Like These - Claire Keegan No surprise, but Keegan's writing is nothing short of magic. An entire, vivid world somehow condensed to a little over a hundred pages. Truly beautiful. #booksky 💙📚

15th Book of 2026 Disappearance at Devil's Rock - Paul Tremblay Sorry to say I found this to be a bit of a snooze. Every time I thought the story was ramping up to something it circled back to the same beats over and over. #booksky 💙📚 #horror

14th Book of 2026 Project Hail Mary - Andy Weir Fantastic book that lived up to the hype. Even loved it more than The Martian. Genuinely exciting, funny, and heartfelt. Hard to imagine anyone not enjoying this. #booksky 💙📚

13th Book of 2026 The Third Rule of Time Travel - Philip Fracassi A nice little blend of science fiction and horror, definitely a page-turner. Had at least one "Oh damn" moment. #booksky 💙📚

12th Book of 2026 Bat Eater and Other Names for Cora Zeng by Kylie Lee Baker This novel wastes no time getting to the horror but lost some momentum as it went. Still would recommend to anyone looking for something shocking and strange for October. #booksky 💙📚

I'm way behind on logging my reading this year. Let's go! 11th Book of 2026: If Anyone Builds It, Everyone Dies by Eliezer Yudkowsky & Nate Soares The details about the creation of AI was fascinating, but the extrapolation of what may happen felt fantastical with little basis in fact. #booksky

Annoying repairs happening in the building today. Sounds like they're coming through the wall with a dentist drill.

(raking bay leaves into a bag) I should make chili

So psyched for this spooky movie that takes place on #Halloween night and it drops.... on Remembrance Day. What.

Netflix, why are you teasing me with #horror movies that you plan to make available in November? You got some great Christmas movies lined up for mid March? You doorknobs.

I've given up hope that a politician will do anything to benefit citizens ever again.

They finally invented a car that can navigate those 90 degree road ramps and air flips that we've struggled with for years.

Sorry, I can't attend this teams meeting. I burnt my mouth eating scrambled eggs direct from the pan this morning.

Love how everyone runs to buy a lottery ticket when the jackpot hits a record high. Like, 'oh shit, my slim chance just got slimmer! Where's my wallet? I don't play for anything less than 40 mill.'

I hate how every election turns into this excessive nonsense. Hey dickhead! Do you think the person with the most signs per square mile gets elected? Grow up. The only thing you're qualified to do is make garbage.

A majestic raven landed on my balcony today, and I take this as good tidings of Halloween delights

"YOU’RE LISTENING TO SISYPHUS FM, THE HOME OF NON-STOP ROCK"

I hate when a company tries to do "fun" things to boost morale & show employee appreciation and all they got is Crazy Hair Day, Pajama Day, etc. That's middle school shit. We're adults. Give us more money.

It's a shame the government holds no power to ease the affordability crisis. No one in power can do literally anything. They're not allowed. It's forbidden.

Every day when I read the news I make a face like I just opened a heavy diaper.

A near infinite supply of new music to explore and the radio station they play at work only has like 26 songs tops.

I've decided to purchase Skydance. Please respect my privacy at this time.

AI Companies say we need to let them destroy everything because AI will probably be able to save us at a later date.

I've signed a decree that artificial flavour will now be called super-flavour.

Keeping ketchup packets in my pocket in case I need some body temperature ketchup in a hurry

No, I don't want your AI to summarize anything. I want you to go straight to hell.

Oh, you think AI is cool now. Just wait until it hacks your smart fridge and disables ice.

God, grant me the courage to change the things I can and incredible new powers to change the things I can't.

In addition to warning labels on food like "High in Sugars" and "High in Saturated Fats", I think Health Canada should include labels like "Wicked Delicious" and "Hits the Spot". Let's hear both sides.

Did everyone's grandparents house smell like potatoes and doilies, or just me?

*Stops mid-sentence, begins shouting a 30-second ad for a grocery delivery service* "- uh... I'm so sorry. The implant had a firmware update last night with new terms and conditions for ad frequency and duration."

I’m sorry that I freaked out because I thought I saw Viola Davis on the bus. It was just a random woman with Viola Davis resting face.

The year is 2027. You buy $17 milk and have to walk home because it's still 8 days before you have access to your gasoline ration. Across the street someone is strangled by ICE agents with electric gloves.

Asking AI to summarize the known universe into a one-syllable word and watching a data center explode.

Boiling everything else just to be safe.

In America you're free to be poisoned by any of your unaffordable groceries.
