INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE is the funniest possible title for the story because Louis de Pointe du Lac is the LEAST definite article among all Annie's many perverts.

"Have you considered-"

Shut up. Yes, I have. And I lack the time, resources, and inclination. I'll just have to settle for a minimal amount of heavy metal poisoning.

Very frustrating for a guy who legitimately needs 100g of protein per day on the low end using the real calculations.

On the bright side, I've long suspected being stupider would improve my quality of life.

Cool. And also. Good.

my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements

we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵)

When I say I support a return to traditional masculinity I mean literally this.

Yann Bean is the ominous Substance voice, for anyone wondering.

I gotta say, the thing about "The Substance" (2024, dir. Coralie Fargeat) is the only character I am 100% on the side of is Yann Bean. He was always upfront and honest about his product. Something he didn't even charge for as far as I can tell.

I had a coworker ask if I'd used ChatGPT to write a piece of professional correspondence because it was so good, which was a bit insulting.

What made up for it was her expression when I responded with "I will cut out my tongue before I let a robot speak for me."

Well, they appear to have forgotten to put cheese inside the cheese bread. Can't win them all.

I'd like to congratulate the weed guy who services my local Domino's. You finally found a strain that resulted in symmetrically cut pizza. Godspeed, you mad devil. Godspeed.

I don't like how hard "M3GAN" (2022, dir. Gerard Johnstone) and "M3GAN 2.0" (2025, dir. Gerard Johnstone) slap. They should be bad and fun, not Actually Good. Seems irresponsible.

I just have trouble believing the people speaking here have ever been in a real fight, is all I'm saying.

But this is known, so fuck it, I guess.

You know, the thing about the fat troops/generals comment is anyone who knows anything is aware that you don't want to fight a fat person who wants to fight you?

She's not joking about the movie thing. We're going to watch "Superman" (2025, dir. James Gunn) tonight and she probably won't remember whatever Lex Luther's dastardly scheme is by lunch time.

Reena @reenamccarty.bsky.social · 19d

It is once again that time where I open the tab group I have helpfully named "How to write books???" and survey the structure guides contained therein, because I'm asking my brain, which can't retain the plot of a movie I just watched for more than a day, to please spit out a whole novel.

The COVID Vaccination Truck has squashed me flat. If an actual infection would be worse and longer, I'm reasonably certain it would just kill me.

Finally got my hands on I WAS A TEENAGER SLASHER by @sgj.bsky.social from the library. About halfway through and I'm entranced by the magic trick he's pulling: The writing sings with inevitable dread and nostalgia sharpened sorrow, but the whole thing is also hilarious. A laugh riot. Jokes on jokes.

FUCK I need to be there so bad, if only for Sex House. @bencollins.bsky.social you should call The Roxy theater in Missoula, MT and just see if they’ll show it. For me.

Tim Onion @bencollins.bsky.social · 21d

In the last few days, we've assembled independent theatres in LA, New York, San Francisco, Minneapolis and Chicago to air this thing.

Jeffrey Epstein: Bad Pedophile will be in theatres on October 2nd after all, followed by the first theatrical screening of Sex House. It is going to be fun as hell.

Was he hot in "Hannibal"? I don't remember him being hot in "Hannibal", so probably not. But everyone got to be hot in "Hannibal", so...???

T. Stimac @tstimac.bsky.social · 21d

Is he hot on "Law &Order"? Like, he can't possibly be, right?

1

T. Stimac @tstimac.bsky.social · 21d

For a guy who isn't hot, Raúl Esparza sure is hot, huh? Honestly kinda annoying. Who gave him permission?

My outfit was exactly as historically accurate as every wizard, viking, crusader, pirate, and steampunk nonsense concoction.

So let's say "yes".

That was a shit show. I look forward to next year where it will probably still be a shit show, but maybe with a modicum of intentionality.
