Nice to see things ramping up on this app. Mildly curious how this place picks up the pieces of what's left on the "other site."

As for me, I tend to post about cinema, horror games, apocalyptic ephemera etc. etc.

Also my cats, and occasional snapshots of life in the PNW.

Glad you're here.

caught my vampire neighbor creeping through my front door. he claims my saying “for sure dude, we should definitely hang out sometime” the other night counts as an invitation, but I disagree. we’re on hold with the etiquette hotline

clearly they are trying very, very hard

patrickcarlson @pjcarlson.bsky.social · 13h

definitely a more grounded story than Alien: Earth! 🤣

Task has 2 episodes left, but E05 was one of the best things I’ve watched on TV streaming in some time.

patrickcarlson @pjcarlson.bsky.social · 14h

If you liked Mare of Eastown, it’s of a kind with that. (same creator)

TASK is a gritty, character-driven crime drama. Yes would recommend if into that. Similar vibes to films like Out of the Furnace or Prisoners.

out of curiosity what did you make of The First with Sean Penn? A show about space that never made it to space.

and by that actually a remake of The Searchers (although inverted).

hadn’t considered it too deeply until now, but the idea that One Battle After Another should be more properly understood as a Star Wars remake than a Pynchon adaptation holds water.

“I spent three nights and three days in federal custody. During that time, I was never told what I was charged with, was not allowed to shower despite being covered in tear gas and pepper spray, had no phone call to my family, and no access to an attorney.” - George Retes, U.S. citizen and veteran.

I’m a US citizen and a veteran. ICE arrested me for no reason.

Jailed for three days without an explanation or ability to notify anyone, George Retes argues the only path to healing starts with the government taking accountability for its actions.

Diane Keaton in her Manhattan apartment with Buster, an Abyssinian, photographed by Jill Krementz in 1977

black & white photograph of young Diane Keaton smiling and standing next to a white refrigerator in a barren-looking kitchen. her cat Buster is crouched on top of the fridge playing with/swatting her hair in the upper right hand corner. she's wearing a long skinny white scarf with a dot-grid pattern, a high-neck white blouse with an ascot/kerchief around the neck, and a black blazer/skirt or blazer dress over what looks like a vest
