Picking up on my Haunting of Hill House rewatch. I know 'The Bent Neck Lady' is the big episode for most but, foof, 'Two Storms' is the one where I became a Flanagan-devotee for good!

I'm sorry it's gotten all cold but at least we can say the word 'apricity' and stuff while the sky is blue.

In these busiest shopping weeks of the year, with everyone under horrible pressure over money, job security etc, try to be nice to retail staff (who likely have unreasonable sales targets from HQ to make up for a lousy retail year). Far too many stressed customers will behave appallingly right now.

I know about 30% of my posts here are about #DeathStranding but I'm about to watch music/songs from the game live in concert and I'm pretty buzzy.

I go to geeky events all the time but being surrounded by 1000s of folk who also love this weird, lovely, post-apocalyptic walking game feels lovely!

I try to read all the Booker winners, so I am in the middle of this year's (Flesh) right now. It's decently well-written, but if it is the last word on masculinity (total lack of interiority, driven solely by sexual impulses that cannot be explained or controlled) then masculinity is in real trouble

Gail Simone single-handedly preventing me from leaving all social media.

(I'll get my veneance as and when she stops writing all my favourite stuff)
I made a joke about Canada not having superheroes on Threads and it's been two solid days of Canadians yelling at me.

Also, it turns out that the Canadians yelling at me about comics don't actually seem to know anything about comics.

I went away for a day and they're still going.

Name a Super Nintendo or Sega Genesis game.

(I only played it when released in UK via the SNES Mini but, if I'd had 'Earthbound' as a kid, I'd have been OBSESSED!!)
