Once again, I’m stating how good The Last Jedi is.

Little late posting this, but as we’re sunsetting UCA as a regular feature, I wanted to give due diligence. This episode is a particularly unhinged ending to a very long saga, and mirth and misery abound.

Weird Al lied to me: I finally made it to Albuquerque and the air does not, in fact, smell like warm root beer. I cannot verify how fluffy the towels are either, nor if I can get my back shaved for nickel.

I was surprised by how nice the fall colors were though.

In 2006 a high school English teacher asked students to write to a famous author & ask for advice.

KURT VONNEGUT - born 103yrs ago today - was the only one to respond.

His reply was a doozy.

I....did not know there was a rude filter??? Anyway I turned this off, for fuck's sake.
If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

A Halloween treat for all and sundry!
I'm a guest on the latest episode of creepypasta review podcast Undercooked Analysis, hosted by my good friend and former Game of Rassilon editor @crackedmack.bsky.social!

We read and review a reader-submitted story, "Raggedy Bill", and I shamelessly plug Jump Leads season 2.

The decline of third spaces and hangouts, such as malls, video rental places, arcades & skate parks has been a direct result of the rise of convenience and has also been objectively bad for society as a whole. Its not that everyone HAS to socialize, but having no option to without bars is a failing.
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

Really proud of this season, and as I work on post-production the finished show already sounds so much better than this trailer. You're in for a treat!

(Also listen to season 1 if you haven't already.)
Season 2 of Jump Leads debuts October 31st! Listen to the trailer RIGHT NOW (or later).

It’s been an October tradition for my spouse and I to build a Halloween playlist, each of us alternating who adds a song every day, totaling 31 by the end. No repeats (unless we’re doing a “Best Ofs” year). This year the theme is 1929-1969, and I figured I’d share them as we go!

On this day in 1959, The Twilight Zone debuted with its very first journey into The Fifth Dimension, "Where is Everybody?"

It's an episode that not only features great acting and cinematography, but would help set the tone for the greatest anthology series in television history.

BREAKING: Governor Pritzker calls for the removal of Donald Trump as President by invoking the 25th amendment. EVERY governor should stand behind the Illinois governor. Governor Pritzker also cited health concerns for the president. He is clearly not well.

Denying reality doesn’t work. Pretending things are normal when they aren’t is a recipe for disaster.

We pretended away the Covid pandemic, and ended up in a mass disabling event that is still ongoing.

Don’t pretend away fascism. It’s here. It’s growing.

Refuse to normalize it.

It's pretty wild to me that investigators have uncovered that anti-trans campaigns are largely funded by the fossil fuel industry, and that the presumed motivations are pretty directly to redirect the public conversation away from climate change... and that this isn't bigger news.

UCA has reached the final Doctor Satan story published in Weird Tales, and it’s been a real journey getting there. Having these on the show has been hugely uplifting and I hope they’re as much fun to listen to.
