sisqo writing the song about how butts are good in thongs: i'm thinking this key change should feel like the end of the world and the birth of a new future

I remember loving this when it first came out at decade(?!) ago, and it still holds up! One of the highlights of the month for me for sure

24. I Am Not A Serial Killer. Teen with diagnosed sociopathic tendencies trying to solve a series of murders in his small town is such a great concept. Also an incredibly menacing performance from Christopher Lloyd, I always forget how good he is at being utterly terrifying!

cool to see major newspapers doing the legal notice equivalent of boomer facebook posts that say mark zuckerberg DOES NOT have the right to use any of their information

Well this is eleventy-million kinds of Fucked Up. @latimes.com (who once contracted with me as a freelance reviewer and whom I struggled to get paid by) asserts that *merely reading its website* constitutes a permanent waiver of your right to sue it under *any circumstances*.

PSA for Claude Code users: 1. Ape holders can use multiple slurp juices on a single ape 2. So if you have 1 Astro ape and 3 slurp juices you can create 3 new apes 3. Tonight’s slurp juice mint event is essentially a minting event for both Lab Monkees and Special Forces

Nikki from OBSESSION joins FORTNITE tomorrow. You wished for this...

Primate reinforces my belief that, no matter the scientific merit of your research, you should never give an ape an iPad. Rots their brains.

I’m sure the old-timey butcher thing makes sense in context, but given I’m just a random townsperson getting murdered to establish your menace I find it kind of baffling. The cleaver is scary, sure, but when you sliced me you yelled “Now serving number die!” and that felt forced. Maybe work on that

Going real big on shorts this year to make up for days skipped while preparing the house for a new baby, but I'm still keeping this thread alive if you need spooky movie recs

It's once again #Spooktober and I'm ready to get spooky and stay spooky all month. As always, I'm trying to watch at least 31 horror/Halloweeny movies throughout the month. I'll keep a running list in this thread and on my letterboxd: boxd.it/1yEZr Last year's list in the QT:
