hey now, lower your voice

One place to NEVER cut corners because you WILL be caught is recommended reading lists. Devoted readers will cross blazing sands barefoot for a new book by their favorite author, and if they can’t find it only to discover a plagiarism machine made it up … the wrath rained down will be unimaginable.

we are all sinners

thunderstorms are soul cleansing to me

i love scrolling through the sinners hashtag. lots of think pieces and conversations to feast upon

we need more artists to make more artful movie posters like this. imagine this hanging on someone’s wall It’s so engaging and gives away some contexts of the movie without any spoilers

Ryan Coogler combined creature horror, romance, vampires, comedy, art, Blackness, sexiness, sadness, history, pain, liberation, unapologetic creative expression, culture, religion, folklore, camp, horny, gore, tears, ridiculousness, jumpscares, outrageous, Southern Gothic, complexity, (cont)

Sinners was incredible. Just incredible

With SINNERS and South of Midnight, the Southern Gothic genre deserves all the love it can get. Here's a starter pack to help you find and interact with folks who enjoy or have contributed to the Southern Gothic genre! #blackbooksky #filmsky📽️ #booksky💙📚 go.bsky.app/PLW6DKn

Between #SouthofMidnight and Ryan Coogler’s #Sinners, I’m really enjoying this surge of Southern Gothic folklore

I’m on my way home to go install South of Midnight! Sending everyone at Compulsion Games who worked on this masterpiece the biggest congratulations and an even bigger “Thank you” for creating a game based in the Deep South. The graphics are gorgeous and I’m sure the gameplay will be incredible

gonna raise my future kids to be gameboy kids

Happy March everyone! I made my first Substack article. I honestly didn’t plan to upload my first article in my birthday month - but it feels nice. Like I’m about to embark on something exciting and new. Is this how Carrie Bradshaw felt? It feels slightly addictive.

Pre-ordered South of Midnight as a very early birthday present. I’m pumped

Everyone seems to be waiting on saviors, messiahs. This is not a strategy.

FREEZE IT. If you lock it, you have to pay for the lock. Freezing your credit is free. I just froze mine on all 3 sites, took me less than 20 minutes.

bought a plane ticket just to feel something

KEEEENNNDDRRRICCKK!!!

If people couldn’t look at America’s treatment of Black Americans and the Indigenous people and then vote accordingly to ensure that never happens again, then there was never any hope of them making the right decision

All this nonsense and he can’t even be bothered to release information on extraterrestrial life and open Area 51. Suspicious.

my friend’s cat has been a source of sanity for me

I really don’t think Drake can come back from this. I recommend that he take 5 year long sabbatical and think about his actions

ALBUM OF THE YEAR!!!!!!!!!! SHE DID IT

classic Loony Tunes have much to teach us about class solidarity

The only celebrity drama I follow is Elmo's beef with that rock

release my people from the clutches of script font book titles #blackbooksky

I should get myself a Costco card. It’s time

staying inside on this snowy day. yes, i have a hoodie that says "meh." honestly, it's apt attire for my current job search situation lol

If you are avoiding the inauguration like the plague, but you still want to honor MLK’s legacy in regards to coalition building might I recommend watching RUSTIN. It focuses on the architect of the march on Washington, Bayard Rustin. He was openly gay & the road was not easy.

the way people’s livelihoods have just been deleted is actually crazy.

Changed the color display on my phone to black and white to limit my endless scrolling and hopefully begin repairing my attention span. I used to be able to read a book from front to back without putting it down and then pick up another book right after. I want that attention span back - I miss it

I didn't realize the gofundme had been shared here but Andrew here has been amazing in setting this up for me
