If there's one thing I've learned from consuming media in the past couple of years, it's that every story can be a werewolf story. If you don't think yours can, you just haven't thought about it hard enough. 🐺🐺🐺

There is no version of yourself you could become that would satisfy the people who hate you. So you might as well be who you are.

“You’re a huge fan of Lord of the Rings, how come you don’t like Palantir?” “You’re a huge fan of 1984, how come you don’t like the surveillance state?” “You’re a huge fan of Fahrenheit 451, how come you don’t like ritual book burnings?”

Every now and then someone takes a run at me along the lines of "I don't understand why you, a scifi writer, don't appreciate 'AI'," and I'm all, motherfucker, it's *because* I'm a science fiction writer I have the positions I have, how many times do we have to fucking yell "torment nexus," my dude

That's an album cover if I ever saw one.

The Irishman took this photo of a painted lady butterfly on my shed curtain -I think it’s quite stunning with the wing blending in with the silver design. He released it to the wild.

I put on The Last Stand for some reason and all I can think of is the greatest tumblr post of all time

The downfall was TV Tropes (and YouTubers lifting from it). It's a fascinating website yet, it's encouraged millions to scream at the telly, when they spot a recognisable thing, "TROPE!" You don't want stories without tropes, like you don't want music without a key, except as arty experiments.

And the point: 'Because to be able to identify the mechanism does not invalidate the mechanism.' That resonates with me because of my weird training. One part growing up with an English teacher parent, one part Radio 4 audio drama, one part close up magic

I should probably say Transatlanticism over Codes and Keys, but Chris Walla's production work on these three albums is just a step above the rest for me. This...might be my hottest music take?

What's the best three album run from a band? (the correct answer is Moving Pictures, Signals, and Grace Under Pressure by Rush, but I'm excited to learn second place)

Jeanne Gibson, known worldwide as Rosie the Riveter, passed away on 29th July 2026 at the remarkable age of 100. Thank you Jeanne for giving women a symbol of strength when we were told we had none. 💋💪🏻💘

I should just start quote-tweeting these with the Decemberists lyrics they show up in. "And what irascible blackguard is the father?" - "A Bower Scene," The Hazards of Love

Grandiloquent Word of the Day@grandiloquentwords.bsky.social · 6d ago

Irascible [ih-RAS-uh-bul] (adj.) - Having or showing a hot, irritable temper; easily provoked to anger; cranky or crotchety. Late Middle English from Old French “irascible” from Late Latin “irascibilis” from Latin “irasci” (be angry, be in a rage) from “ira” (anger) - Late 14th century.

Last repost: This genuinely sounds like sci-fi villain dialogue.

And the all-too-logical extension of the theme (if you’re the writer of that book): *”Your* value has migrated.” 🫤

I don’t want to be too sensationalist about this but also I’m the least violent person in the world and I think if someone said this to my face I’d hit them

Here are some of my concept arts/sketches for the creatures in Silent Hill 2 Remake, from the "Silent Hill 2 Exhibition" currently being held in Tokyo. Found these on X. Also the in-game model in the shots is not mine. I didn't sculpt any in-game creature models for the Remake.

I was talking to a coworker who's in their 20s the other day and I brought up LiveJournal offhandedly, and they said, "What's LiveJournal?", and I expired on the spot. I am posting from beyond the grave.

tl;dr LJ in the Aughts had become a place where Russians were able to organize outside of state control (servers in CA!) until inevitably a Russian banker with "alleged" Kremlin ties bought it. now the servers are... in Russia. And people have been sentenced to prison for blog opinions.

I come back to this tumblr post again and again

Nobody wants predictive data models to stop working for the people in medicine. Or translating ancient Pompeii texts. Or the other ways we were already using it. We want it to stop replacing workers, killing the environment, and stealing from artists. Hope that clarifies.

Mostly books. Animorphs #54: The Beginning (partly because I thought I'd lost my first copy); I have multiple copies of Dracula, Frankenstein, and Jekyll & Hyde. Actually, come to think of it, I feel like the world of books is where this would be most common.

Name physical media you purchased more than once.

Bach died on this day in 1750. Few artists match him. His technical discipline, philosophical & spiritual commitment, endless invention & sheer bloodyminded refusal to compromise produced sublimity & excellence across an astonishing range of work. A Titan. Here’s the G minor fantasia & fugue #dotd

I've never forgotten someone responding to my SFX blog review of Wolverine with 'This is the worst film I've ever seen.' and someone responding 'See more films.' And that was just perfect discourse.

Post a perfect album for the '90s that isn't Nirvana, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, or Alice in Chains.

me trying to get pictures to explain my taste in men to someone but not wanting to just google something generic like 'large guys' so i google 'husky gentlemen' and well. i don't know what i expected

oh god

On the one hand, give us this movie already you cowards. On the other hand, there's nothing more faithful to D&D than everyone taking forever to get the second campaign started.

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves co-director Jonathan Goldstein says the script for a sequel already exists, but he's not expecting it to see the light of day any time soon. https://bit.ly/4bIsrNA #SDCC

This concept was introduced to me as "run the dishwasher twice" and was an important part of my executive functioning recovery as well as my path to self-acceptance.
