Megyn Kelly is telling on herself.

And I can’t take this Toady nonsense one more minute.

Brian Evenson, Raymond Carver, and one of the biggest scandals in the audio classic literature catalog.

Also, an exquisite gift.

When I was a teenager, I was in the center of what seemed like a Quixotic socialist quest, that went from a handful of people in a bare room, to a successful political campaign that changed everything.

And yes, there was a cost.

I know what’s like to have a tiger by the tail.

I too was once a founding member of a cadre that toppled a massive institution— here’s what it’s really like.

Must I Hammer It In?

I got to talk to the two smartest tool-dudes in the world, @Mark Frauenfelder and @Kevin Kelly about the four tools I can’t live without.

Yes, the Hitachi Magic Wand is right in there. But the others may surprise…

Interview with David Cronenberg back in the day but oh so current.

Details on JG Ballard and CRASH. You will not believe how much was autobiographical.

Meanwhile, DC’s “history of violence” has been re-released on Criterion with outstanding special features.

Cowboy Beans, rice, & the ”special” martini.

Oscar Wilde has something to say on the ingredients.

Interview w/ the late Gunnar Hansen:

Little did I know he had so much to say about classic literature, the Icelandic origins of the Zombie, and of course, making cinema with no cash in the broiling Texas sun.

Regardless of how you feel about cinematic “horror” you will hang on his every word.

Dear friends,

I left Facebook. Wow! It’s been a few decades. But doxxing is not fun, & so I bade adieu.

Instead, you’ll find me at:
susiebright.ink (my Substack), and here, of course!
@susiebright on BlueSky

Do stay in touch. I gotta find another way to remember your birthday . . .
Xox, Susie

Last week I attended a murder trial — a tragedy, as you may guess.

It reminded me of another trial, when I was a child, that changed the world, in what was, if you can believe it, a far bloodier time.

Kimmel got canned *today* bc the conglomerate, “Nexstar” that carries his show is in a merger w/ another multi-billion dollar media company, ”Tegna.” Their corrupt merger needs to be APPROVED by the new FCC commissioner, a Trump thug, Brendan Carr. This is the price he exacts: Cancel Kimmel.

I uncovered an audio cache of phone calls, from lovers & strangers who called me the 2007 night Obama won.

I saved them & they’re blowing my mind.

I never would‘be never found them except Typepad is burning 21 years of archives.

Baby, it’s not what you expect.
