Birthday, The Beatles #commissionearned
Meetings! In the end, I ended up attending one of Rypmaw’s public lectures on my own. It slightly pained me to have to pay my own money for a whim this trivial, but I was determined to put my b...

As somebody has undoubtedly pointed out already, UNFROSTED – a highly inaccurate account of the creation of the Pop-Tart – sounds exactly like the kind of movie that Jerry Seinfeld’s charac...

I include this as a public service announcement. Today I learned that Barbara Hambly has written a very complicated set of sequels to BRIDE OF THE RAT GOD, which is a pulp supernatural horror in ...

…you don’t have to sell it to me. The question is, do I see GODZILLA X KONG: THE NEW EMPIRE tomorrow, or Sunday?
How to celebrate it: …okay, fine, by wishing me a happy birthday. And thank you. But after that: I’d feel bad about being so commercial about this, except that it’s my birthday, so I won’...

Got to really buckle down for this one. I was very worried that I might have to beat Victor senseless, or worse, with my cane. I didn’t want to, and wouldn’t have liked to; but when you’re ...

NOBODY WANTS TO DIE looks interesting, at least. Although I can’t wait to hear what nonsense they came up with to justify having magic in the game instead of just paying for the rights to do a ...

This GOOD TIMES animated reboot trailer is so incredibly racist, I refuse to put it on my nice, clean website*. It is so incredibly racist, it would make a white supremacist blink and ask, Can yo...

At least for right now: FROZEN DREAMS is on sale for $8.51, TALES FROM THE FERMI RESOLUTION VOL 1 for $5.29, and MORGAN BAROD for $7.28. I’m not sure why those specific prices. Amazon sets them...

I liked this. THE SPIDER WITHIN: A SPIDER-VERSE STORY isn’t epic superheroing, but it does go into what it feels like to be a teenager. I also like the underlying message of how teenagers shoul...

Night Moves, Bob Seger #commissionearned
This has been a hard week to stay focused. I flipped back the sheet, to the shudders of the madam and Edgar both. I tsk-tsked them both. “The dead don’t care if you’re rude.” I looked dow...

We were nowhere near the Francis Scott Key Bridge last night. Everyone in the house is fine. And yes, that is going to be one Hell of a mess to clean up.

Solsbury Hill, Peter Gabriel #commissionearned
Got snared on a little project, had to push myself to get some of this done. The business I was upon was the sort that needed no gossipy cabbie to see, so I was half-soaked by the time I reached ...

THE IRON MAIDEN is the HPL Historical Society’s latest Dark Adventure Radio Theater (DART). It’s not based on a Lovecraft story, because they’re out of those; but the good folks of the HPLH...
Short version: GHOSTBUSTERS: FROZEN EMPIRE is absolutely pandering to me, and I am here for it. Slightly longer version: I deserve this. I get to have nice things. I get to have a very amiable Gh...

I almost stopped watching the trailer for MONKEY MAN when they start going off on rich people, blah blah, yadda yadda, I’m sorry but Hollywood is not really well-suited for making me believe th...

The first one simply wasn’t gelling right. I’m going back to this one, instead. “One wonders how much better a personal meeting might go,” I suggested, curious as to how it would be recei...
