The 2024 Omnibuses arrive tomorrow.

The 2024 chapbook omnibus “Corpse-Worm Carnival” is in the process of being printed. Soon it will arrive on my doorstep, and I will begin sending them out. Thank you for your patience.

Considered buying it, but the scratches on the lid concerned me.

My original plan

New solo album. Out in July. 'Izzy Wizzy Let's Get Bizzy' How childrens magic shows became...Magick!

[reading a book in first person] i dont remember doing any of this

Reader’s notes in Daphne du Maurier’s collection Echoes from the Macabre

@22NewsStormTeam your site is still predicting “less than an inch” of snow for Monday. Sticking by that?

Now available! Signed copies! Ahhhhhhhhhhgh!

How the right gets the left to spread their stupid shit: they post stupid shit, you respond by yelling at them, all your friends now see their stupid shit, thanks to you.

@Gallup pathetic, miserable cowards.

Important reminder

@HorrorPaperback @StephenKing It’s the only story in the collection I have absolutely zero memory of.

Controversial opinion. The Breathing Method in @StephenKing's Different Seasons is a better story than Apt Pupil. If I was rating all four 'seasons' from best to worst, I'd go: 1. The Body 2. Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption 3. The Breathing Method 4. Apt Pupil #horror

@MorbidKnowledge Terrarists? Hujackers? Kolling?

On December 24 1994, Air France Flight 8969 was hijacked by Algerian terr*rists. 3 passengers were killed. The h*jackers wanted to detonate the plane over the Eiffel Tower. Upon arrival in Marseille, the French counter-terr*rism forces stormed the plane, k*lling the terr*rists.

Conservatives seem to already abandoned the pretense that the killing was justified because the officer "feared for his life." Now it's just "she was annoying, which means any agent of the state can kill her." Average "small government libertarians" showing their true feelings

@blacklionking73 @USDOL They’re going to win the Shittiest People award.

@USDOL Win what?

We are going to win. AMERICA FIRST.

Instead of uniting in the face of authoritarianism, we should probably be attacking each other on the basis of race and gender.

@yoldbag If urine poops says it, you can take it to the bank
