My thought every single day: “The stupidest fucking shit just happened. No way it gets dumber.”

Then I read the news.

I know there are a lot of terrible things going on, but it’s 2025 and I just saw American Nightmare, No Warning, and The Suicide File. Absolutely wild.

I mean I'm just saying, I took 30 seconds to do this very accurate scientific sketch of the fish

Take Big Sammy, for example. He has a big dumb head and he gets all the kisses on it. How could you not?!

Also, ugh, my little boy is turning three years old next month. He’s getting so old ❤️

How angry would Baphomet be with me when I give it all the kisses on its big dumb goat head like I do dogs with big dumb heads?

One of the perks of working in a used bookstore is cool stuff like this first edition @brianevenson.bsky.social coming in. Of course I bought it immediately upon seeing it.

I want to say thank you to all of the anthologies who have turned down the one story I’ve submitted. It’s allowed me to get some additional feedback and make some very needed edits. I feel confident that now I’m finally done with it, besides hating the title so much.

Personally, I love the Terrifier films, but to say films / literature / music are not political is such a lame excuse to not answer a question. And in 2025? LOL OKAY. A creator’s intent and personal beliefs are always going to be in their art. If not, what’s the point of making anything?

Big guy walked onto the lake today. He’s never seen it frozen. He was so excited!

Weird or obscure baseball is also good. I’ve read books on the history of pitches, players working in a steel mill to avoid war, a book only about backup catchers, minor league journalists, etc. to get an idea of what I mean.
Please give me your audiobook recommendations! The semester starts in a couple days and I need something to listen to on my almost two hour drive each way. It needs to be horror. I just finished @chucktingle.bsky.social’s Bury Your Gays and @lizkerin.bsky.social’s First Light.

At my bookstore job, we received so many boxes of books owned by someone who clearly owned a thousand cats. This is based solely on how awful my allergies have been.

Benny Rose The Cannibal King was, I’m pretty sure, the first thing I read when I moved to Vermont three years ago. It’s exciting to see it get a new home in a new collection where so many more people will be able to read it. I can’t wait!
BENNY ROSE THE CANNIBAL KING is now out of print. A Halloween nutrition since 2020, I'm grateful to everyone who spent a night with Benny and the Blackwood girls 🎃

If you missed them, don't worry: dining will resume Sep 16, in TEENAGE GIRLS CAN BE DEMONS 😈

Horror is Sammy’s favorite genre of books. He’s partial to Clive Barker and Liz Kerin, but he approves of @claymcleod.bsky.social. I haven’t gotten far into it, but this book is too real. Absolutely brilliant work.
January 11, 2025 at 3:05 AM
What are you currently reading? Im already planning to pick up @claymcleod.bsky.social’s Wake Up and Open Your Eyes after work, but why not buy more than one book!

There are way more porn bots on here than I anticipated.

I’m happy to see how many horror and baseball people are on here. Even Fangraphs has an account. This seems promising!
