Author of Someone Else's Story, Sleeping Underwater, Souria, and Silver Bullet. Also a magician (the genuine occultist kind), and trying to navigate a messed up world with as much grace as I have.

It's not a ton, sadly.

On the turn of the century, my bestie and I held a NYE party, and synced it up so midnight fell when it falls in that movie. That's how much I love that movie.

She's a nice girl, Charlie Brown, too bad she won't live!

There's a lot of deep King lore alluded to.

It is so much better than the movies that led to it. I watch every episode just kind of stunned at how right it all is.

I want a big slice of chocolate cake. Dammit.

I miss them so hard. When I moved to Edmonton, the video stores here were like a wonderland while they lasted.

Will no one rid us of this troublesome premier?

Welp, I wanna claw out my brain, and I had to cancel the game that is the only reason I'm currently getting out of bed in the AM, but at least my dog loves me.

My head is full of spiders with razor claws. Thank god for Dr Pepper and my leftover surgery opioid.

What perfect album came out the year you turned 16?

I can't believe this is the fucking timeline I'm trapped in.

Well, thank fuck that vote passed.

Especially galling as her issue seems to be he's not behaving in a way that is bigoted enough for her. It's a weird fucking thing to be considered redemptive.

If we end up with a fuckin' election tomorrow, I'm going to fucking LOSE it. Practically, this means nothing, but be advised.

The old man who is a holocaust survivor who was picked up by ICE? A rapist, it seems. Please note that I still think his deportation is bullshit, but I don't want to see people all up in arms while there are oodles of brown people with way less shit on their records getting picked up every day.

Congratulations!

It could be worse. You could have a papillon. Mine never stops grumbling about my deeply disappointing performance. This dog has a lot of opinions.

Im not sure I want to celebrate MAGA fracturing because Trump's not ENOUGH of a nazi....
