Also in case you don't know, the person commenting in the screenshot is James 'Grim' Desborough, tabletop RPG designer of 'Tales of Gor', gamergate advocate, men's rights activist, and person who got his blue tick because he fucking paid for twitter. https://t.co/lc9yie03ei https://t.co/3T70swvuMm

Book Cover for: Spiral, Koji Suzuki

Spiral

Koji Suzuki
Alison CybeAlison Cybe

Despite all that, the sequel, Spiral, is a thousand times worse. I... can't actually believe how bad that one is. There's less rape, but there's more outright batshit demented insanity; the kind that makes me think Koji Suzuki hates literature on a very personal level. https://t.co/LK5GVxLXOn

Just think about the period between 1985 and 1995, when we had The Lost Boys, Fright Night, Interview with the Vampire and Bram Stoker's Dracula. What the hell happened to the vampire subgenre which made is so culturally relevant for that ten year period? https://t.co/sarCCn2QHT

Third Man Out

Richard Stevenson

So I've watched Third Man Out; the first Donald Strachey movie. It follows the case of America's first gay detective (a claim that I think is open to dispute), and is based on the novel by Richard Stevenson for Here! TV and it's... not great. But it is fun. Join me! 🧵 https://t.co/umejav0PY7

Last night I decided to put together an infographic series on the tragic fate of The Ancestral Trail - a magazine series from the early 90s which many of us loved, at the hands of one Frank Graves. I hope you find this series to be enlightening. 🧵1/8 https://t.co/8LkN4uM33X
