i found out beneath
the crone mothers moon
when the sky was filled
with the pinks and blues
of the sun’s daily death
like a cheap grocery store
birthday cake
that you can either choose
happiness or regret
and happiness
does not pay
the rent

Me in the Talamasca devoting all our resources to surveiling Reba McEntire, “Guys trust me her agelessness can only mean one thing! What? Oh shut up Terrence no one liked your jello loaf you brought to the monthly potluck”

It’s wild how every time on ink Master they mention a theme for a challenge like say “heat” it then cuts to each the artist just saying the definition of the word?

And they act like they’re inventing the definition for the first time

“You know heat is basically hot but spelled…differently”

I wonder why we don’t hear Enys Men (2022) dir Mark Jenkin or The Shout (1978) dir Jerzy Skolimowsk talked about when people talk about best of folk horror?

Penda’s Fen (1974)dir Alan Clarke gets some notice but still not enough either

not to mention Robin Redbreast (1970) dir James MacTaggart

so any of you horror heads know if the claim that AMC+ has the full Shudder catalogue is true? My research super helpfully has people claiming both sides.

I feel like a criminal that all these years I wasn’t adding alt text to images until last week. I thought alt text was just like extra data you could add in

add alt text to your images*

whoa just safe search offed “zero fucks jar” looking for a meme I saw of a empty deli container labeled “fucks” and whelp that’s not what it showed me and what it do was very ironic for a search term about a sum of 0 in the fuck category….
