I’ve been listening to vintage radio playlists on Spotify for a while now. They are just so quaintly charming.

Some of them have old ads peppered in. Regardless, there’s something soothing about old radio programming back from when life was simpler.

When there’s a post that’s doing numbers and showing up repeatedly in your feed, you can go to the three dots in the lower right corner of the post and click to bring up the drop down menu.

Then you can choose the “hide post from me” option, and you won’t see it anymore.

I made a starter pack for art historians, art critics, other people who write about art, and a few friendly historians of other things that include visual culture. Let me know if you want to be added!

I asked Robert Eggers about research he did for his new "Nosferatu" film, expecting to hear something about Eastern European folktales from the 1800s.

He answered very differently.

Me: Umm ... what?

This is a great idea from @windwardgal.bsky.social. Show me your starter pack of favourite books. Here are a few of my favourites.

I would love a starter pack where we post stacks of our favorite books. Nothing attracts my attention like a stack of books. I have gotten so many reading suggestions this way. This is one I saved from the other place.

This is the kind of writing I really enjoy doing: history, folklore, research, and trying to get to the bottom of a mystery.

Boosting this now that I've added more people. Comment or DM if you'd like to be added. Critics and reviewers of folk horror and hauntology are also welcome
I've made a starter pack for folk horror and folklore. It's pretty bare bones right now--don't hesitate to let me know if you want to be added if you do art, music, fiction, or research. It's being a little glitchy about letting me add people right now, but I'll figure it out!

Here's an article I wrote last year about the role of fertility rituals in folk horror and how that might resonate with contemporary concerns over the erosion of reproductive rights. Since I wrote this, I've come across more films that might better demonstrate my point. Maybe I'll update one day.

Are these men not embarrassed by how much they identify with rapists?
Remember when you were an 11 year old boy and women started coming forward about their rapists and you thought, oh no I'm next?

the problem with saying we need a “Joe Rogan for the left” is that Rogan was not a creation of conservatives. he was a regular guy who became conservative because he’s very stupid.
