About halfway through the Flanagan Carrie show, thinking about the ability to shift heretofore straightforwardly evil characters into complex humans and updating the evils of high school for a modern time. Some things change, some things stay the same.

Best friend recommended me this something like two years ago and I’ve thought about it every day since.

Small part of me is always thinking about how much more money D&W would have made if they let Slash be audible in the movie instead of being talked over. I know people who would have gone multiple times just to hear it.

All my #FantasticFest reviews for @professorhorror.bsky.social are officially out. I wish I had gotten to more, but I’m happy with what I got. There was humanity in all its strains: love (the Squirrel); depravity (Sick); found family (Littermates); and surveillance (Compliance). Check em out!
Just know anything I write and get out into the world for the next four months minimum is, a little extra than usual, a minor miracle I am churning through sheer force of will.

Another very important thread from one of my faves in the game. I still feel new in ways because of how my schedule makes me operate. It’s comforting to be reminded we’re all in it together and as long as you love it you’re still in the game. 🧵
Sharai Bohannon (She/Her)@sharai.bsky.social · 2w agoI can’t focus because the world is still the world. So…new thread from your favorite underachiever! 1. Don’t bogart information. If someone starting out asks you about shit, share what you know. That extends to not gatekeeping friends who might also be able to help them.
I finished this the other day and I miss reading it. Is that weird? I think it’s fine.

Coping with an absolute bullshit turn from life by churning out Fantastic Fest reviews, and while I may not have gotten to watch as many as I like to at festivals because of Circumstances, what I have gotten to has been almost exclusively bangers for the weirdos and freaks. Thanks, movies.
Is Mark Duplass on here. I gotta talk to him about season 3 episode 4 of Creep Tapes.
Happy birthday to the radiant star Maggie Cheung!🌹❤️🌹❤️ You can watch her in Wong Kar Wai's IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE on the Criterion Channel—alongside her stunning performances in films like IRMA VEP, CLEAN, DAYS OF BEING WILD, THE HEROIC TRIO and more!
Today is the first day I get to delve into #FantasticFest coverage and this is how it feels

The work day just went buckwild sideways so do me a solid and read some of my work and tell me nice things while i reckon with 2026 being the year of doing film festivals and the day job simultaneously for the first time in…my time doing film festivals. #FilmSky

I’m declaring it Halloween to make myself feel better, which means it’s time to share the @sharai.bsky.social piece that made me aware of myself and switch up some language. #HorrorSky
Remove Spook From Your Vocabulary Today
It’s officially Halloween season, and a great time to remind everyone that the word “spook” is a slur. Like many words and phrases in the English language, racists did what they do best and ruined it....

I’m going to scream in the shower When I come out remember: the best way to survive this shit and honor them is to be more like Dolly, and more like Tim. Be unapologetically yourself; protect & respect marginalized voices; read as much as you can, esp to children; work with causes you believe in.
Was just telling my roommate about this and hoping it doesn’t go away. Kids need books and not everyone’s family can afford them. We need to open the libraries and keep Dolly’s library open at all costs.

I’ve been crying all afternoon and evening about the loss of one of the most important advocates for children’s literacy we have possibly ever had.
Maris Kreizman@maris.bsky.social · 2mo agoWe really did lose one of the best advocates for books that there ever was.
Woke up inexplicably at 2:30 am and never actually got back to sleep all the way and now I have to go to work, how long before I’m using my lunch break for a nap.
Wow loving this trend of talking about a person or thing and then within 24 hours having them make a triumphant return. More Takashi Shimizu!
Orrin Grey@orringrey.com · 2mo agoYes please!
It’s almost time for my annual banned books series, one of my favorite times of year. Before we get there, what have you been reading for Women In Translation Month? Last year I was deep into Korean novels and short stories so have a bunch of stuff waiting on my kindle, like the Good Son #BookSky
