Spiky author person with a rad jewelry shop. I like animals. She/they, either works. Queer, ND, and probably watching a horror movie.

Here's a horror nerd one. Blair Witch is the most profitable indie film of all time netting 250 million worldwide and the actors were 1) financially screwed 2) STILL are fighting to have their images and real names not used by production companies looking to cash in on Blair Witch 25 years later.

okay it's time for a prompt post: respond to this post with a correction to a common misconception about something you know a lot about. if you feel like it, boost your response. (please use a kindly tone about it, otherwise i, your prompt curator, will get anxious.)

45 spent all of that wasted breath inciting tons of violence then gets a chunk of ear blown off and acts like this is the most surprising thing in the world. He orchestrated a fucking coup that got people murdered. "How did it come to this" people need to be shaken, not stirred.

Update: after his time in the oxygen tent, and many MANY high octane antibiotics, we are at MILDLY SNEEZY versus I'M AFRAID HE CAN'T BREATHE. Thank you again for a the help.

I am such a horror bunny. I made flowers. I did mermaids. I rocked it. But now? NOW I get to make some DEAD STUFF.

Gearing up!

Raised and taught by a Romany Welsh gypsy, your friendly diddicoy says: The death card in a tarot reading almost never implies death. It implies change. Horror movies do you dirty. The devil? Does not imply the devil. It means obsessive thoughts, addiction, or even depression.

Gonna be real if Twisters doesn't have the bad CG cow floating by I want no part of it.

Pants is shocked, shocked I say, that you may not have hydrated, taken any meds you need, eaten something, and taken a moment to breathe. Look how concerned she is for you. You should do those things so she can relax.

Also the whole tetracycline family of antibiotics, which are often used for folks with penicillin allergies (& also for some skin conditions). You can SERIOUSLY fuck your shit up going out without sunblock while on tetracycline or doxycycline.

Some antibiotics too. Z-packs for example.

Beta blockers, SSRIs, most antidepressants make you more prone to sun sensitivity and dehydration. They can also make you more prone to burns as I understand it. Drink yer water, ya strumpets.

Huh. This made me wonder about atomoxetine/strattera and Google says it's an SNRI and apparently ... yep. That explains some things. I was on holiday in 38C + with my mum and got fucked up by the heat worse than she did, and she's in her 70s.

The methotrexate I'm on for arthritis comes with a warning that it increases sensitivity to UV too.

And some antipsychotics.

Anyone who grew up poor who wants to tell you that people are poor because they just aren't trying hard enough, or, worse, that they "like it that way" is not someone you should want to sit next to. Perhaps you should throw them out of the bus. When it's moving. On a freeway. Who am I to say.

You look like you could use a super cute birb. Here. Have yourself a black Phoebe basking in some bright sun, the black all faded like a death metal concert shirt after twenty years of washing. 🪶

At least six people attempted assassinations on Hitler. Didn't suddenly make him more respectable either.

If you were inclined to go over to X anytime soon they're going after Jack Black for making a 45 joke so why don't you do anything else instead. Here, I'll help.

JD Vance is particularly odious to me because we’re roughly the same age and from the same part of Ohio and I grew up with a hundred pasty, squishy faced white dudes like him & they’re all convinced they’re marginalized because you can’t smoke at Waffle House or say the n-word anymore

Sticker Mule is both A) A more expensive option and B) Run by a trophy-hunting, Trump-worshiping Qultist. You have other options! Check this spreadsheet! (And while we're at it: ditch U-LINE. Also unfathomably awful people.)

all I had to do was click on one sticker ad on IG and suddenly my feed was full of other sticker ads. I clicked on them all and did the math for you. The best small-run samples pricing is at SlapCo; best overall pricing is at Sticker Cyborg or Sticker OG Factory. docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

I work at Rockin' Stickers! We're a small business in the PNW and our stickers and our little crew are amazing (I print my own stickers in-house, too)! I love us so much, please consider ordering your stickers from Rockin' Stickers! 💛

Sticker Mule is Tr*mp trash. Use StickerApp or Sticker Robot or Zug Monster or literally anything else
