PhD candidate studying the intersection between horror and the Hebrew Bible. My wife says all I talk about is horror and football. My posts prove this. (He/him)
This is such bs. I’ve never meet a person, right or left, who didn’t want the Epstein files to be released. Since he was arrested, everyone I’ve talked to has wanted his files released. This is just straw man fallacy. This is not a political issue. Release the files & prosecute those involved.

The third party voters in Michigan are famously not white. Your painting of anyone who didn’t vote for Harris “as white” is ignoring the voices of a whole slew of people from various backgrounds. You’re being racist against those people bc you won’t listen to their voices.

Once again I was able to have to honor of being a guest on the Fear of God podcast. We talked about one of my favorite movies from last year: In a Violent Nature. It would mean a lot to me if you listened and let me know what you think.

This is an excerpt from @orringrey.com short essay on why horror doesn’t necessarily have to scare you. But this paragraph might explain why I’ve been using horror as a comfort blanket since November 5th. I’d choose a monster story over the NYT any day. (Glowing in the Dark, pg.36)
