I hope more filmmakers give the @fangoria.bsky.social Chainsaw Awards as much reverence as Ryan Coogler for his win(s!). It is a bummer when people don't submit acceptance videos. Kudos to those that did. The show was great!

I just finished WHALEFALL by @danielkraus.com (finally) after reading his masterpiece ANGEL DOWN. I didn't expect to cry. I didn't expect to call my dad. I didn't expect this cannonball of a story. This one will stick with me.

I am an old hand at taking rejections with stride, but eventually, after years, it starts to feel personal. Complaining about rejections is faux pas, but goddamn they're defeating. I got seven this week, some after months and one after being shortlisted. It feels like throwing darts into a pit.

"From Clay, God" is a nasty little monster of a story that snuck onto the #shortlist at @fracturedlit.bsky.social Gods & Monsters contest. I have collected over 30 rejections so far in 2025, and this is a wonderful wink of recognition I sorely needed.

A shot of light in the dark: my flash story "From God, Clay" was longlisted for @fracturedlit.bsky.social Gods & Monsters Challenge.
This story is about grief, creation, and parenthood. I'm so honored. Let's keep making monsters.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

I use a Random # Generator to help tackle my Letterboxd Watchlist. I watched The Medusa Touch 1978 & it was everything I want. An unwilling God. Psychic noir. Rage made manifest. A horrifying punchline. It felt weirdly timeless too, and Richard Burton plays cruel so well. #cultcinema #forgottenfilms

"Ellis bleeds in the shower from their knee. Their newest wound was a thorny protrusion, bone-like but arboreal. They pick at the torn flesh and pull. It peels easily and with little pain. Since they initiated the first acts of the working, pain had lost its edge."
