My past: Musician (including Sacrilege BC, Grinch, The Politician). Film essayist (including Fangoria magazine, Movie Maker, Dread Central).
My future: Becoming a Psychonaut whose job is to map multi-dimensional worlds.
I'm a cook and a chef by day (yes, there's a difference, but it's not near as hoyty toyty a dif as some may think, lol).
Putting on the "chef" hat today, and making this cake for the first time for my cousin by marriage (who is one of the BEST home cooks I know) as a birthday surprise. LET'S GO!

An oldie but a goodie. Anyone read this one? I love this book, and am surprised it was never turned into a film.

THE CITY, NOT LONG AFTER by Pat Murphy is a real gem.

As I finish up Peter Watts' brilliant BLINDSIGHT, I ordered up some new stuff for the next reading cycle. Thank you authors @buehlmeister.bsky.social ‪@aptshadow.bsky.social‬ and @zamakhtar.bsky.social for creating worlds for me to fall into, explore, enjoy...and terrified by!

UAP HOT TAKE: Are there biological pilots to them? Even as a boy (I am 58 now) I thought an earthbound, adjacent race, likely in the oceans, was more probable than star faring beings. Then, the more I read about these creatures, the more suspicious I became. LOL.

But...hmmmm.

This. Book. Is. Blowing. My. Mind. The hype and massive respect this one gets is so obviously deserved. The ideas regarding consciousness that author Peter Watts gets into are way way wayyyyy beyond the usual. This book is a TON of fun, but it's also making me...MORE. BLINDSIGHT is a masterpiece.

Finished this one up a couple days ago. Great dialog, no overwrought world building (thank doG!), masterful pacing, and characters I truly miss spending time with after closing the book. Joe Abercrombie is just so damned good. An event level author for me. BRING ON BOOK 2!

I am reading CENTRAL STATION by Lavie Tidhar atm. So far it's absolutely enthralling. It's my intro to his work, but 50 pages in I'm loving it so much I just put 4 of his books in my cart for Book Buying Day (aka payday, lol!). Seriously can't wait to delve into more of his work.

Just started this one. 35 pages in, and so far the writing is absolutely top notch. This horror-western about a ragtag group hunting down a witch seems like it's going to be a real winner.

Starting in on the next horror read - HOUSE OF LAST RESORT by Christopher Golden.

Finally finishing this up. Solid horror about a doc filmmaker caught up in the web of the old 70's cult he is doing a film about.

Hmmmm what to read next?

Had a lot of fun with this one, though I would not consider it a gaillo, as many do. For me, it's much closer to kinky stuff by Peter Walker.

THE WITCH'S MIRROR -

Gotta love these old Mexican Gothic horror films.

Vinegar Syndrome does it again with another restoration of gloriously tasty trash cinema.

I just watched this on a whim, and wow I am glad I did.

Tense, clever, and sexy, with a definite horror edge. It's difficult to not give anything anyway, so my advice is to just go in blind. But...yeah...highly reccomended!

This place was one of the churches I grew up in.

Hail Hail the UC Theater rep movie house.

Such a fun and funny film about a quiet bank teller/ex hostage who discovers herself and her hidden talents while preparing to find the money robbers got from her bank.

Director Shinobu Yaguchi (SWING GIRLS, WOOD JOB!, etc) is a favorite, and always leaves me smiling.

A blind spot in my Teruo Ishii now filled. A gruesome, gory, sex filled anthology that will satisfy fans of this director.
