Yeah even the shitty parts of the internet used to be a special artifact that was a joy to discover.

I'm shocked every time I see a new account on Twitter. My son you saw a sinking, burning ship and you swam out there to climb aboard?

I'm not saying it's wrong, I'm just saying it's not completely right.

Their account is every red flag at once. Their banner implies gender is the apocalypse, and yet somehow the biggest red flag is "JOINED Twitter June 2024." Who the fuck is JOINING Twitter now?

Meanwhile on Twitter, @merrittk.com wrote an article for 1900HOTDOG about Foreskin Man, and already there's a lunatic accusing us of writing the comic book ourselves as a leftist psyop to discredit "intactivist men."

Locally sourced horror might not be as uniform and attractive as processed horror, but it has more nutrients.

Yeah me too, there's not much of a web presence. It just promises local horror goods and services. That doesn't answer anything, it only complicates the questions I already had!

Is horror quietly blowing up everywhere or is it just that my town finally realized it rules? Around the corner a horror boutique opened, this summer the city started a free outdoor horror movie festival, they just announced a fucking horror farmer's market.

Same, it's funny until you think about it for a second. Then it's absolutely the right call.

Rebuild MySpace. Put 40 grainy seconds of an emo song on your page. Use a selfie from a photobooth with glitter stickers. Learn to live again.

The hip new platform for the kids is nospace, which I will not use, because there's nobody on it over 20. It's replicating MySpace, and I'm so old I'm supposed to scoff at Gen Z for this type of thing, but yes: Do exactly this. Throw the rest in the garbage and restart.

You, in particular, should read Black Moon by Kenneth Calhoun. That rhymes, so that's the first reason. Second, it's an absolute powerhouse of an apocalyptic horror novel and it is beautifully written. Shockingly so. It's incredible it's his only novel.

Happy 4th of July! What's more American than beef? NOTHING. If you answered anything but beef, you are in need of reeducation. Please see @brockway.bsky.social and the Illinois Beef Association's children's activity book, The Magic of MOOOO.

This black magic snake oil catalog was the craziest fucking thing I'd seen all month. That doesn't sound impressive unless you know my only job is to look at crazy shit all day, every day.

In The Accountant, Ben Affleck has hitman and accounting superpowers given to him by autism. He displays his inhuman CPA genius by remembering the home office deduction. I'm not joking about any of this.
