Absolute dreamboat!
Did I get to talk about the history of Hentai, Tentacle Erotica, Ero-Guro, Pinky Eega, Edogawa Rampo, Teruo Ishii, Hokusai, and so much more …. Twice?

Yes, yes I did as an intro to the screenings of Urotsukidoji during Imagine 2025

I don't know who needs to hear this, but if you have friends struggling through the shutdown, consider inviting them over for a family dinner this week. Make too much. Insist they take leftovers home. Some folks can't say they need help out loud but will appreciate the kindness.

Also endless thanks to all the folks who came out to @brooklynhorror.bsky.social this week, especially those who came to see "It Needs Eyes" and spoke with us after.

RIP George Lowe. Wonderfully kind and funny man. Brilliant improvisor. Art collector. Raconteur. Space Ghost was genius and helped usher in a new wave of oddball tv.
It is with a heavy heart that I have to announce the Passing of George Lowe.

Lowe was best known for his role as Space Ghost in Space Ghost Coast to Coast and Cartoon Planet alongside Brak's Dad on the Brak Show and as himself on Aqua Teen Hunger Force.

Completely normal country where I wake up every day and see some polling asking people whether or not I should be allowed to live here and and exactly how much of a scourge to society I am. Very cool. I feel great, actually.

He may play a CREEP but Mark Duplass is a stand-up guy, as Duplass Brothers Productions is teaming up with the Transgender Film Center to launch the Found Footage Fund for trans filmmakers.

Autism has been around forever and even the modern term, coined in the 1940s, predates widespread public use of acetaminophen. There is not an "epidemic of Autism", and implying that neurodivergence can be bred out of society is quite LITERALLY the definition of eugenics.
