I wrote a book about food and ecocriticism in #folkhorror films, out early 2026 from McFarland Books.

Preorder links make good spooky season gifts for the ecocrit professor haunting your department.

Not just any journalist, she won the goddamn Triple Crown of broadcast journalism (an Emmy, a Peabody, and a Murrow) in 2024 for her reporting on Gaza.

This is textbook censorship of the highest degree

Someone out there is impersonating me using AI generated emails. Please know
I will never email you asking you to pay me for a service. (Also, this is NOT me, that is NOTA my email, and those book covers resemble mine but are clearly AI generated...)

Sesame Street is now offering tips for parents on post-trauma comfort because the federal government is physically and mentally abusing our country's children.

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”

That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

As we grieve for Alex Pretti and Renee Good in MN, please do not forget Victor Manuel Diaz, who died in ICE custody after being taken from here. And all others who have died in their custody.
36-year-old Nicaraguan national Victor Manuel Diaz died in ICE custody on Jan. 14 at Camp East Montana in El Paso.

The Texas Nicaraguan Community on FB reports that his mom last heard from him on Jan. 6, when he told her he was planning to go to Minneapolis to start work in a restaurant. 1/3

He was doing what many have been saying white men should be doing. He went outside to observe, he documented, he put his body on the line to protect another person and for this he was murdered by the gatekeepers of the fascist regime.

Dems have to vote this down

this might not be the fight you want but this is the fight you have, they’re killing people in the streets and smearing the victims, they are totally out of control

meet the moment because it is coming to meet you whether you like it or not
Reminder: DHS legislation that funds ICE at current levels without policy restrictions is in the Senate and needs 60 votes to pass. Deadline is next Friday.

ICE agents are America's failures, basically indistinguishable from lazy school shooters, losers who want to play Call of Duty on our streets against people who can't fight back. They have unlimited ammo and toss tear gas like they're pressing L1. They have to be defunded and jailed. All of them.

Also, I'm about to mosey over to Shudder and put on Mother of Flies if you're interested. Won't be posting about it since it's brand new and I don't want to spoil it.

As this wraps up, I just want to share with the #folkhorrorfriday peeps that tomorrow night's #horrorwatch is playing a whacky and wild 70s B movie sci-fi classic, The Visitor. I love it so much, and am really looking forward to it. If you're available, consider joining 🙂

As fun as I remember. Not perfect, but it's scrappy and consistent, certainly one of the better found footage and mockumentary horror films I've seen. I really appreciate it. Is there any existing urban legend like Peeping Tom? This movie has been my only exposure to the concept. #folkhorrorfriday

one thing i've been enjoying is how oddly NPR-coded this movie is? like it has a strong This American Life kind of structure
