Today I read @blsaycewrites.bsky.social’s review of the @secondsightfilms.bsky.social POSSESSION release, because I waited too long to purchase mine like an IDIOT and now it’s sold out, so I need to soothe/hurt myself further with Becci’s wondrous words 🦑

Second Sight Films' Possession (Blue-ray Review)
Second Sight Films' limited edition blu-ray release of Possession is a boxset befitting of the cult horror classic.

I have been really bad at posting my work here the last few months, but in 2026, I'm forcing myself to get back into it. I wrote some stuff down that I was proud of achieving in 2025, and I hope the next 12 months are just as wild.
