Don't Let Anybody Ever Tell You Blood Is Not Good to Drink On "To the White Sea" by James Dickey, and "334" by Thomas M. Disch

My new Reading Project post is up and FREE TO ALL! In this one, I discuss two distinct, and distinctly discomfiting novels: TO THE WHITE SEA by James Dickey, and Thomas M. Disch's science fiction classic 334.

Getting upset watching E.T. because he's always wanting to go "home" โ€” never to work

The first thing by Dickey I ever read. It haunts me to this day.

I knew about THE BRAVE LITTLE TOASTER. I didn't know about this.

I'm working on a theory that Royal Match is behind everything. Everything that's happening right now is because of Royal Match.

Al Roker bringing some "those clowns in Congress" political satire at a time when we need it more than ever. Thank you, Al.

Never mind why, I had my reasons, but today for the first time I listened to Theo Von's podcast (an old episode). How is he not utterly dismissed as one of the dumbest motherfuckers alive. He doesn't even get jokes! The guest kept making deadpan jokes and Von kept taking them literally!

Just heard Louis CK's (lousy) novel described as "an emotional HUCK FINN." Unlike the bloodless, cold-hearted original.

Actually Cronenberg was attached to LONDON FIELDS at one point. I bet that would've been good.

I think someone could pull it off. Visually at least. Movies are magic, you know.

David Cronenberg already made CRASH.
