Its bleaching day! Where I fill my tub with bleach water and soak the whites for hours, stirring them sometimes with a big stick. Its a great day.

On an unrelated note some people call me "Old Man Chávez" and I dont know why.

Doom: The Dark Ages was fun, and it trying a new parry based combat style was great, but it was no Doom Eternal. Doom eternal was as close to perfect as I have ever experienced in an FPS.

I even missed the story, the decrepit society of heaven that ran on the blood of the exploited.

Finished up Illusion by Paula Vorsky, and for a huge change in tone, going to start Black Juju, by Tim Curran

Finished this quilt! 6 colors, 89" by about 104". Started just before Halloween, so pretty quick by my standards! Double batting so it's nice and warm.

I have had this rainbow thread for a while, you can kind of see it in the free motion stitching, but it looks really good on the black binding.

Oh sure the IT guys bring donuts and they are heros, I put a big pot of bubbling menudo in the break room and everyone complains?! What a bunch of racists.

Quilt back in threw together for this spiral quilt. It actually looks pretty good just on its own!

Finished quilt top! Now I need to iron the whole thing, sew a quilt back, make a sandwich with batting, pin the layers together, quilt the layers together, attach the binding.....

Or I could throw it in the box with other finished quilt tops, save that for later and move to my next project!

I have the "Too hot for Amazon!" book, Pure Evil from Kristopher Triana!

It's got illustrations, but as I was taking pictures, I couldn't find one i thought Bluesky would let me put up....

Been reading this novel of medieval horror, and it's fantastic! I haven't really read anything like this before! I devoured the book in 2 days, finishing it today, then going forward 800 years to S. A. Barnes Soace horror GHOST STATION.

Is it unreasonable to just quit my job, instead of doing this "Yearly Reflection" and my Goals for 2025?

The horror library, Harvest Home, by Thomas Tyron. A book club edition, and the great Centipede Press edition with an intro by Tim Curran!

An absolute classic of American folk horror, you need to read it!

My books from @grindhousepress.bsky.social (Grindhouse Press) have exceeded the 2 alloted shelves! Time to make some room.

Of all the upsetting things that happen in The Outlast Trials, your doctor saying: "You're beautiful. I am going to shower you in humiliation and contempt" is the most upsetting.

There's some kind of magic in prepping dried chiles. It always puts me in such a relaxed good mood; there's something special about the fruit smell, the confident slices with the knife, the little rattle of the seeds falling out.

Santa knows just what I like! How about that! He even got @danieljvolpehorror.bsky.social to sign my name in the book.

Also my lettered edition if Dead Sea matches my initials in an odd coincidence.

My coworker once brought in a rubber chicken to the office. Which really annoyed another person that sat in the same area as us. So naturally we took it apart and hooked it up to an electric air pump. It made a FANTASTIC noise.

Wait, were we the assholes?

While I am very excited for the return of my favorite fighting game Virtua Fighter, it's going to be sad if it turns into the modern style, full of guest characters, split into seasons, etc. But this is the world we are in, and every day we move further from God.

Ah, the days when books had cigarette ads in them. Were they ALWAYS cigarette ads?
