I’ve had a problem with this script I’ve been working on, but now I’m feeling good about it. As a result of this though there’s going to be two main videos this month. Hopefully a week apart from each other, not a part one and part two situation but still related to each other.

Got to this boss in Silent Hill F and the game is really clicking for me now. I don’t agree with everything it’s doing, but I’m really enjoying watching it come into its own and I’m liking it way more than the 2 remake as of now.

Now reading this. I’ve been really excited to check it out based on how folks talk about it.

Started playing Silent Hill F, and I genuinely do like it, but I’m having the same issues I had last year with the 2 remake where it just makes me feel like I’d rather be playing the old ones. Strange issue with this series that I don’t ever feel with new Resident Evils.

Man it’s been such a weird month for me, I only watched six movies all of September that weren’t work related which like never happens. I’ll have to do better in October about it.

I have always been a proponent of the Critter Ball concept, and I think more media needs to use it.

Re-watched Cabaret (1972) and suddenly realized that Joel Grey's performance as the Emcee seriously delivered one of the most terrifying characters of 70s cinema.

I read this this past week. Evil, evil book, but extremely well done, impactful, actually heartbreaking. I don’t even know what to say about it other than it will stick with me for a long time and that I would highly recommend it.

I hate to be doing this yet again. I know there are a lot more important things happening out there and we're all short on cash, but I'm two months behind on rent and am still struggling to find enough work to scrape by. I appreciate anything anyone can give. ko-fi.com/tylerhendrix...

It's illustrative about how abusers stand up for each other as if they were in some perverse facsimile of a union, look up Max Landis allegations if you're not aware, suffice to say anything that gets him this riled up is doing something right.
