If I had a nickel for every time Franz Ferdinand was involved in the precursor events of a world war, I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird it happened twice

If anyone in Europe starts talking about American politics I will instantly transform into a raving frothing ball of barely coherent rage. It will take .3 seconds for them to know

A meme of Teia Cantori giving someone a very focused and flirty smile surrounded by pink hearts with pink Mortal Combat font that reads "fatality."

I’m reading The Dead Zone right now—which is brilliant and really interesting to consider in the evolution of King’s oeuvre!—but also, as we narrow on the final chapters, kind of an act of self-harm.

A Getty stock photo meme of a person about to hit a guy on his laptop with a frying pan. Text over the person with the frying pan reads “Emmrich (calm emoji).” Text over the person they’re going to hit reads “Venatori, dock town scammers, solas when he puts rook in fade jail, whoever ‘organized’ the Weisshaupt Library.”

Pour one out for Bela Lugosi's Ygor — a character as perfectly suited to his talents as Dracula, if not more so.

It's one of my favorite performances in the Universal Monsters canon. #Svengoolie #SonOfFrankenstein

Thinking frequently of the flack I'd get a couple years ago for stating the painfully obvious corporations are not your friends. People really wanted to believe you could consume your way to a better world.

it really is just stunningly on the nose that the opening salvo to Trump’s supposed war
of liberation in Iran began with bombing a girl’s school.

if you put that in fiction people would dismiss it as being too maudlin and heavy-handed, and yet this kind of thing just keeps actually happening.
