Writer. Only work gets done here. Wovon man nicht sprechen kann, darüber muss man schweigen. Beneath the gold, the bitter steel. Our revenge will be the laughter of our children. I will not betray my soul. Fix your hearts or die. Tiocfaidh ár lá

Dana Ashbrook as Bobby Briggs and Mädchen Amick as Shelly Johnson. Shelly is in a bathrobe and her hair is wet; she's sitting on Bobby's lap at the kitchen table as he holds a gun they're both looking at, she rather lovingly.

The use of Shawshank as the local prison and the book-accurate presence of Dick Hallorann are the only times this happens. It happens a whole lot more in King's books believe me. Stop making up shows to get mad at
Welcome to Derry would be better if every ten minutes a character didn't go "You better watch your ass or you'll end up driven to Shawshank Prison in a car named Car named Christine passed a Pet Cemetery. Unless you take a shining to it."

When I was 16, Clive Barker's Books of Blood Vol. 1-6 turned me from a guy who read horror into A Horror Guy, which I remain to this day. Ground zero for so much in my life.

My theory about Joyce Carol Oates is that all her bad posts are her charging up like Godzilla's spines until she lets loose with a radioactive blast that leaves the world's richest Nazi a pile of ash
In response to Elon Musk dunking on someone as a "taker, not a maker," JCO quotes and replies "So curious that such a wealthy man never posts anything that indicates that he enjoys or is even aware of what virtually everyone appreciates—scenes from nature, pet dog or cat, praise for a movie, music, a book (but doubt that he reads); pride in a friend's or relative's accomplishment; condolences for someone who has died; pleasure in sports, acclaim for a favorite team; references to history. In fact he seems totally uneducated, uncultured. The poorest persons on Twitter may have access to more beauty & meaning in life than the 'most wealthy person in the world.'"

GUILLERMO DEL TORO & MIKE FLANAGAN: Well...we think maybe the classic horror novel should be different...

STANLEY KUBRICK: You think "maybe" it should be different. How do you think "maybe" it should be different?

DEL TORO & FLANAGAN: ...a nicer ending?

KUBRICK: a NiCeR eNdiNg???

Pluribus is about Musk Mindset
What must it be like to be a billionaire? How must it feel to be head of a modern kleptocracy? Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, Jeff Bezos, Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping: What thoughts go through the minds of men who’ve been able to build lives in which no one ever tells them “no”? What happens is you just make shit up about your products based on whatever pops into your brain. You decide you’ve identified the characteristics of the Antichrist, a thing you believe in. You state confidently millions of people will live in outer space within 20 years. You knock down half the seat of government to build a wedding reception hall. You talk to one another about how you’re going to live to be 150. [in the linked piece, these claims are all hyperlinked to sources] In other words, you go insane. Stark raving mad. Crazier than a shithouse rat. You’ve amassed more power than virtually any human beings in history, and you have a grasp on reality comparable to a Batman villain’s. It is my belief that a system that drives people crazier the richer and more powerful it makes them is bad. In this episode of Pluribus, we see that humanity’s new collective consciousness has done exactly that. It/we/they/us/whatever have reprogrammed the entire planet to operate for the care and comfort of the 12 human beings who were not absorbed into the hivemind along with everyone else. In short order, the people that we meet: • grow stupefied and complacent • prove unable to focus on important matters in favor of trivia • opt to assimilate with the new totalitarian consciousness rather than fight • indulge their basest instincts and become sex creeps • kill millions of people Find a behavior in that list that does not reflect how the ultra-powerful and unaccountable actually run things. I’ll wait.
