If you've missed out on this century's standout author of the cosmic weird horror scene, this encomium by some of Laird Barron's @lairdbarron.bsky.social peers (all fantastic authors in their own right) is a great place to become familiar with his works.

Happy birthday to the late, legendary filmmaker David Lynch, who would have turned 79! I’m planning on binge watching @twinpeakspics.bsky.social on DVD starting on February 24th, for which the show took place. Do you have a favorite movie from David Lynch?

This photo was taken in 1911 using glass plate technology by Herbert Ponting who was part of Scott's Antarctic expedition,
The composition and detail are exquisite with the band of white snow/ice creating a perfect frame around the two people and the ship in the distance
Iconic imo

I find it amusing that “bleeding heart” has become derogatory from people who claim Christianity leads them when like…
The Sacred Heart/bleeding heart was the ideal representation of Christ’s compassion and suffering for centuries.
