Tell me why I shouldn’t think the federal government is waging open war against the state of Minnesota at every level

FLANAGAN: We asked ourselves, 'Why would a man wear his mother's clothes and stab a woman in a shower?' After, all, Norman says he wouldn't hurt a fly. We wanted to reconcile that contradiction. CHOTINER: Soviet mind control is not a solution I'd have thought of. FLANAGAN: [smiling] Thank you.

Dana Skully got a new yard sign but Indiana Bones thinks we should wait til after the next bout of wind & rain to install it.

A 12 foot skeleton stands in front of a house with a porch, behind an iron fence. On the fence, a sign with the opening of Shirley Jackson’s The Haunting of Hill House in the style of a progressive “in this house” sign.

IN THIS HOUSE, WE BELIEVE NO LIVE ORGANISM CAN REMAIN SANE UNDER CONDITIONS OF ABSOLUTE REALITY EVEN LARKS AND KATYDIDS ARE SUPPOSED BY SOME TO DREAM THIS HOUSE HAS STOOD FOR 80 YEARS AND MIGHT STAND FOR 80 MORE WALLS UPRIGHT DOORS SENSIBLY SHUT

... IT'S JUST THAT, IF THE RAGE VIRUS HIT IN 2002, THE ONLY VERSION OF KID A ON VINYL WAS THE 10". BUT IN THE BONE TEMPLE IT'S OBVIOUSLY NOT A 10" PLAYING SO WHERE DID THE 12" KID A COME FROM IF THERE'S BEEN NO SOCIETY AND THEREFORE NO RECORDS BEING PRESSED FOR 28 YEARS

Very grateful to see these publishers getting named and shamed. If this stuff is going to happen, and we all know it is, I'd rather see it happen with bright shining klieg lights instead of in darkness and secrecy. We should know that it's happening, and act accordingly.

I stand by all my points about Incidents Around the House!! I was optimistic that Other Mommy would resolve some of the issues I had with the book, but the reviews seem to uhhhhh suggest otherwise...

Other Mommy is in theaters today! Earlier this summer, @annarosereads.bsky.social and @emilyhughes.bsky.social entered the Let Them Fight Thunderdome to argue over the source text, Josh Malerman's Incidents Around the House. www.darkertimes.com/let-them-fig...

you should go text a friend, I'm done with this

@emilyhughes.bsky.socialOct 9, 2026, 3:31 PM

thank you <3

@emilyhughes.bsky.socialOct 9, 2026, 3:28 PM

again, you understand that I had absolutely zero context for your initial reply, right? maybe take literally 10 seconds to think about how that would have read to you if you were in my shoes. you jumped straight to telling me to fuck off and calling me an asshole.

@emilyhughes.bsky.socialOct 9, 2026, 3:24 PM

I don't generally go out of my way to be kind to people who tell me to fuck off, no

@emilyhughes.bsky.socialOct 9, 2026, 3:21 PM

maybe take some time to think about why saying "I'm so going to die of cancer" with no other context to someone you don't know doesn't really come off as commiseration

@emilyhughes.bsky.socialOct 9, 2026, 3:18 PM

"hey emily why are you generally unwilling to be personally vulnerable on public social media" well,

How so? I spent a lot of time around ground zero, as did my husband. He had to have half his colon removed and suffers from Crohn’s. I also suffer from chronic illness. Sorry about your step mom but you can seriously fuck the entire fuck off.

I was posting about some personal grief I'm trying to work through and your reply came off as very flippant. I don't know you, I'm not the audience for this. Have a nice life.

“I was posting about personal grief on a public platform how DARE someone reply to me.” Grow up asshole.
