I understand nobody likes to feel brand new, but if you’re still into sociology this book might be helpful to understand where those comments are rooted. I’m glad the optics have reached a saturation point so people are proper appalled but this is not the worst of times on American soil.

Spooky Audiobooks 🎃🎧📚🔪🩸#10
We Used To Live Here by Marcus Kliewer
Read by Jeremy Carlisle Parker & Corey Brill
Like a fool I listened to this while home alone & cleaning out closets. I was startling at little noises & my cat looked weird like maybe it wasn't my cat, it's like rated R Coraline scary!

The Buffalo Hunter Hunter by Stephen Graham Jones
Read by Shane Ghostkeeper, Owen Teale & Marin Ireland
This is excellent audio, the way Teale's voice fades into Shane's, a Ntv man voicing Good Stab's story—it's top tier storytelling & it kept me on the edge of my car seat.

Spooky Audiobooks 🎃🎧📚🔪🩸#8
Dry by Neal & Jarrod Shusterman Read by a cast of narrators
If you’re from CA this one will hit different. From SoCal? You won’t be able to sleep. The Tap Out is upon us & the water has run dry. It’s harrowing, it’s possible, can our youth survive this inevitable future?

I should have threaded these, I'm a knucklehead.

#7 The Drowning House by Cherie Priest
Narrated by Mara Wilson
The narrator made this story about a scary house washing up on a beach feel very real & spooky—not pee your pants scary but eerie & chilling for a PNW road trip!

For real this gravy never misses.

I needed some emotional support biscuits & gravy today. As I was cooking I remembered a funny bit of personal lore. I learned how to make gravy from my Dad who learned how to make it in prison, it turned into his thing. So say what you will about junior drug lords but they’re always doing the most.

Ah my first fire of the fall. I’m so glad I stopped on my way to the cabin last night and stole some wood from the trumper down the road.

#6 Parable of the Sower by Octavia Butler
This book has lived rent-free in my mind since 1993. I read it as horror then, a perfectly written scary story. Over time the messages & parallels settled into my molecules & I do community work so I don't see cannibals on the 5.
October 9, 2025 at 10:16 PM
Actually I talk about this all the time, just not on social media because I treat sm like my annoying little diary. I am wrong for not using social media properly, but it just doesn't feel the same as running my mouth in person. Here is a slide with some differences between foragers & gatherers.

#5 & #6 The Staircase in the Woods & Black River Orchard by Chuck Wendig who has me in a chokehold I guess. Staircase is the novelized version of screaming crying throwing up & how trauma warps the jello of reality & friendship.
Black River is about spooky apples baby.

Spooky Audiobook 4
The Wolf Road by Beth Lewis
Also in the “wtf did I just read” terror category, somebody might need to check on Beth. She wrote the hell out of this post-apocalyptic western frontier scarescape. The narration viscerally unsettled me so much I needed a bridgerton chaser before bed.

Spooky Audiobook Month numba 3: The Starving Saints by Caitlin Starling
Firmly in the category of “wtf did I just read?!” this revoltingly gory medieval sapphic horror fever dream put this look on my face 😲 for 13 hours. It was so different, so experimental, a lil cosmic horror adjacent maybe?
October 6, 2025 at 4:20 AM
Here you go, the recipe is in my book with a lot of other acorn recipes if you’re interested quietquailbooks.com/shop-books/p...
October 5, 2025 at 6:40 PM
Idk how to plate things all profesh but it’s a dollop of acorn hummus with a pinch of sumac, bay, dried flowers, douglas fir smoked salt, a drizzle of olive oil & some buttery acorn crackers crossing to form the roof of a traditional dugout house. Made for the SNAHC First Foods Dinner tonight 🥹🫶🏻

Spooky audiobook Numero Dos:
Piñata by Leopoldo Gout
Look how metal this cover is. Colonial violence is so dark & disturbing it unleashes visceral nightmares that follow us into the future. The narration captures the vulnerability of Latinx & Nahuatl youth & it chilled my spine. Great storytelling.

I live for Weinermobile crash photos and one person captioned this crash photo with "my baloney has a first name it's—oh shit I crashed my car!" and it has been making me laugh since 2008.

Spooky Audiobook #1
14: Threshold Series by Peter Clines
Nate, a lovable loser, gets catfished by an apartment. Great narration & setting development (does L.A. have vintage brownstones? idc) Very Stranger Things meets Only Murders in the Building. The 2nd book is on my own spooky TBR this month!

What’s this hat about? I couldn’t hear his question or intro but he had a real questionable looking hat. The event didn’t specify an aggressive dress code as far as I know.

And I could not be more thrilled to pass the golden acorn spoon to Chef Crystal Wahpepah who will be the next Cal Poly Humboldt Rou Dalagurr Food Sovereignty Lab's Chef in Residence for the new school year. All my new children are going to learn so much & I know they are overjoyed to welcome her.

This is what it looks like if you just do half of a Cherokee candy roaster squash. But I want to fill up the inside of the kabocha and steam it. I topped it with the Sioux Chef's Maple Chili Crisp, poms & pecans. Probably some brown butter to clog my enemy's arteries I can't remember lol

Me and the lazy eagle from across the river have consulted with the afternoon breeze, and have agreed to rest our eyes for a while to see if that solves our problem of not having any fish.

My cabin is an upside-down acorn cakes laboratory now.
