I feel like even the best Black Metal acts are really hesitant to push the genre beyond the standard sound. And I think a lot of it has to do with the "trve kvlt" crap diehard fans saddle the scene with. They discourage change. It's why "blackened [genre]" became a thing. To foster innovation.

I may be in the minority with this, but all of the positive things that came from Romulus will be undone with Scott's Covenant "sequel". At least in regards to the films. I give the man infinite credits for the original film, but acting like he's the definitive authority on the franchise is crazy.

Make your favorite film sound as boring as possible without giving away the title: A group of adults argue about the scientific method and ethical hacking while stuck at a zoo during a hurricane. One babysits the owner's grandkids.

Make your favorite film sound as boring as possible without giving away the title: An AF war veteran escapes froma psych hospital to reconnect with his FA girlfriend by buying a ticket for her current assignment, & steps up when food poisoning disables the pilots.

Reminder for Americans: From now until midterms, be sure you are checking your voter registration status at least once s week, regardless of what State you live in. I do not trust voting rolls to not be purged somehow in even the bluest Dem holdouts. Be aware.

This is hubby’s bday charcuterie, just the meat and cheese board without all the sauces and dips and fruit and chutneys on my new Red Sonja charcuterie board gifted to me by @whitemothlodge.bsky.social! I did a simple design but sheesh, the boys loved it! Made a strawberry shortcake, too.

Man I haven't wanted to switch to PC gaming so badly, ever. And of course it's at a time when I really can't afford to drop the kind of money needed to do so. Especially with the price of components to build gaming machines these days. I'm honestly really fucking irritated about it.

The one positive I'm seeing is the reassurance that I've surrounded myself with the weirdos and the misfits.

I'm legit angry. Wanting to punch something, kind of angry. Obviously this isn't dictated by threads of fate being severed or some other fanciful image. But God damn it, just once I'd like to see some spark of universal justice. A pulse of karmic balance. And the void to take evil away instead.

Mother fucker! Tim Curry, too? For fucks sake, can't the universe take a couple shitheels instead of beloved pop culture icons? Plenty of evil old fucks in D.C. you can grab, Mr. Reaper.

There's this truly odd phenomenon I see in discourse of all kinds. It's this inability(refusal?) people have to understand "I am not opposed to this from a general stance, but I do not want it for me." From very mundane shit to really serious social and political topics...

Upgraded from GSW to murder this morning. So.... yeah. Right across the street. Drug related, I'm 90% sure.

Well. Someone got shot right across the street from me a couple hours ago. I can now tell you what a drive-by sounds like. 20 yards away. Cops knocked on my door asking for a statement. So that's something.

And the current timeline continues to remind us its the worst version.

Years ago I found out that a dude i went to high school with became a moderately successful (read: could pay his bills) streamer. He was known in school as the guy who had two gfs come out as gay after dating him and then start dating each other. We called him "match-maker".

What do we think, people

Wait, really? God damn it. My great-grandparents emigrate from French Canadian territory into upper NY state and now I'm stuck with a wannabe fascist tangerine *and* i miss out on the glow-in-the-dark dinosaur coins. This is the worst timeline.

For the next few months every American should be extremely cautious of buying ground beef. Cheap scrap meat from a foreign producer with extremely weakened food safety regulations has the potential to create a massive food borne illness outbreak.

Jesus Christ. I'd almost rather feel like my coworkers hate me than this odd sense of barely existing i get these days. The cross-shift morale is basically nonexistent, too. Past year has just felt like the last shreds of "team" dissolved away and everyone just kind of *exists* around each other.

"We would rather eat rocks and drink gasoline than be split up" - Compulsion Games has officially completed its buyout from Xbox and now owns all its IP. Players who buy games like South of Midnight are now supporting the studio directly, its CEO says. www.videogameschronicle.com/news/we-woul...

Saw someone mockingly ask what Trump supporters are going to do with all the merch they bought of his once (if) he's out of office. And I'm like, they'll just sell it to collectors. Duh. They all know that there's still a massive market for WWII era nazi shit, right? It's the same people...

Oh it's one of those days.

Shit. With one intrusive thought I just made myself so depressed my chest actually hurts. I don't think I've done that in, I dunno. Maybe a decade? Maybe ever? Can't say I'm a fan.

Working from home is nice because my coworkers can't hear me well I tell them to go fuck themselves.

Today’s video is all about grocery shopping in the Middle Ages. It was a tedious activity, but a necessary step to make this 15th century Italian recipe for Cherry and Rose Cheesecake. youtu.be/R45P-Yu_Mjw?...

Oof. David Crowley (Dem candidate for gov here in WI) has had more than one positive thing to say about data centers and the Rep ads are already using it to chop him at the knees. Gotta hand it to Dems. No one fucks up momentum like them.

Ankle felt near 100% after elevation and icing so I went back out to finish and rake up clippings. Stepped on the only stick in the yard 10 minutes back into it, rolled the same ankle again. I'm a fucking calamity.

It's been rainy and gross in Southern WI for a minute. Today I went to finally mow the lawn. Not only did my little electric mower not have enough juice to do more than the side yard, I found the one divot next to my walkway and severely rolled my ankle. Lame.

Dear DC/James Gunn/whoever, We don't need our main characters cursing up a storm in every show. It's just edgy nonsense at this point. Hal and John saying "fuck" doesn't add anything to the Lantern mythos. I say this as someone who says fuck dozens of times per hour. But I'm not a Lantern.
