Tenebrous Press@tenebrouspress.bsky.social · 2h agoWhen you sign up for the Tenebrous NWHRA (New Weird Horror Readers Association) newsletter, you may ask yourself: Will I get defensively screeched at with pro-AI defensiveness & product shilling?🤔😱 You will not! That’s the Tenebrous Don’t-Be-A-Fuckin-Tool Guarantee™️ sendfox.com/tenebrouspress
#bugsky (is that a thing?) I have an indoor potted plant that occasionally shows evidence of being eaten (leaves chomped) and recently a small stem cut clean off. Weeks pass between these incidents. I have no pets. No other plants have this problem. What's eating my plant?
It is worth noting that the writer of that HWA newsletter telling people to embrace AI, has an AI based coaching app they are selling
So apparently that HWA pro-AI newsletter also uses Indigenous water rights issues as a prop, trivializing the activism by Indigenous peoples to protect our water including specific anti-data centre actions. I guess they figured why not alienate Indigenous horror writers while they’re at it?
I'm seated. The Barnes and Noble employees are scared and asking me to leave because it's "not even distributed yet" but I'm simply too seated

Had occassion to drive through Uptown today and I miss it so much. Took the long way up Lake Street and there's folks everywhere but they're not snobbish. Really used to love walking around there looking scrungly & being invisible, being right by the lakes, too

I wonder if anyone I know can help him find the animated short? (Obviously Bierce is in Carcosa.)
The Knights Who Say "Rob Tomshah-NI!"@robtomshany.bsky.social · 5d agoWhat happened to Ambrose Bierce, but also - what was the animated short I saw in a theater in the late 1980's that depicted Santa's elves in violent revolt? I remember two spoken lines, "You die, fat boy!" and (after Santa fails to find his flying reindeer to make a getaway) "Care for some venison?"
