back in the shit for Halloween
In a red-lit room, the TV shows late game Silent Hill f, where schoolgirl Hinako battles a nightmare creature in a field of eldritch spider lilies.

Funny that the only word to describe how I read @ajwhiteauthor.bsky.social's You Weren't Meant To Be Human is "devoured" but here we are. Obsessed. Feral.
Cover for Andrew Joseph White's novel You Weren't Meant To Be Human. White nostalgic horror print on a black background, worms writhing between and inside the lettering.

mad scenes
An A4 page, laminated and in a stand, that reads "Please Do Not Sit on the Plinth Thank you" in the Papyrus font.

Spongebob ascends to the heavens, blissfully listening to something on an iPod. Spongebob's body is lax, at peace. He is free. The image implies grace experienced through music or news.

Sin Blaché, a writer, stands with their phone in their hand and looking to camera. They're wearing all black: cuffed slacks, dress shoes, a sheer and velvet shirt, and a tailcoat.

googling "how to stand like a normal human when someone takes out a phone or camera" because I keep ending up like this
Robert Pattinson, the actor, stands awkwardly in a suburban kitchen. He looks deeply out of place; too tall and half-blurry in motion, not unlike a cryptid. He's wearing an oversized tracksuit top, camo trousers, and boots. His expression is that of surprise, and a little anger. He wasn't expecting the picture being taken. This is the kind of image that people imagined when they thought that photographs could capture souls.

without downloading any new pictures, what is your mental state?
A picture of Paris Hilton doing promo for a forgotten piece of early 2000s messaging technology, the T-Mobile Sidekick. Paris is wearing baby pink satin, and a tiara. Her face is totally obscured by huge pink lettering that reads, "WE RUINED EVERYTHING FOR NOTHING."

nbd just eating gelato in Reykjavik. Normal Sunday stuff
A small cardboard cup of mint chocolate gelato on the left side and dark chocolate gelato on the right. There is a circular wafer stuck into the top behind a small toaster spoon. A Reykjavik city street is dreamily visible but out of focus in the background.

Get all the way fucked
An unsettling close-up of the neo gamma robot face. This close, it's possible to make out two eye-like cameras in its otherwise featureless black glass face. There is a stark and uncanny danger to the robot. The eyes make it worse.

Last night's best shot.
A picture of the moon over Northern Irish bush. The moon's light illuminates light clouds from behind, casting the evening in a false daylight.

Burn Gorman portrays Dr Herman Gottlieb in Pacific Rim (2013), standing in front of a blackboard. He's holding up his cane to demonstrate his calculations. There are no subtitles or audio, but the image is from the scene where he is trying to warn others of the exponential growth of the kaiju appearances in the movie.

If you're into buying gifts for the holidays and you want to surprise someone with a book full of queer slow-burn, sci-fi surrealism, load-bearing cussing, weaponized nostalgia, and thinly-veiled warnings about the workings of modern fascism then consider mine & @hjm.bsky.social's novel PROPHET.
UK Paperback cover of the novel PROPHET by Helen Macdonald and Sin Blaché. Two men stand in a field next to a car. The lights inside the car flare upwards impossibly, forming the background for the novel's title. The tagline reads, "Your happiest memory is their deadliest weapon." Praise for the book: "Brillaint... I loved it." Chris Whitaker "Prophet is a blast." Sunday Times "High-octane." Guardian "Thrilling." Time

What is your current social media strategy?
A blonde reporter holds a microphone up to the screaming maw of an opossum. The text reads, "Thanks, yes. I would just like to say that I hate this."

will only be accepting photos of me if I look like a) Sasquatch being caught on film, or b) recently deceased caretaker mysteriously spotted in graveyard

this manages to capture both energies
in a graveyard, behind an old church, a figure walks out of frame to the left. the sky is gray. the trees are bare in early spring. the mood is calm.

out and about in hospital town once more
fifteen seagulls dot the edges of a boat sitting in a river. there is a walking bridge in the background. the weather is dull grey and the mood is bleak.

so far spending my time in Edinburgh taking basic tourist pictures and having a blast
A plate of French toast and bacon artfully plated with maple syrup. A photo of Edinburgh Castle from the side, bright but overcast light, green fields. A common tourist snap.
