Can you swap their heads ?

hello my fellow Horror And Houses fans.... i have come to recommend the book "horror in architecture" and its sequel "horror in architecture; the reanimated edition" by joshua comaroff and ong ker-shing to you all. ive been reading horror in architecture for the past couple days and it is excellent

i love tumblr because the pitch i gave for this book is one that i made in a frenetic state after literally pacing around my apartment with my hands clasped behind my back like a harrowed detective who is haunted by the specters of his past and the notes are full of people going "thanks for the rec op!"

WOWZA theres a lot of notes on this post (book club moment) so i wanted to let people know that the reanimated edition (or the revised edition if youre not looking to keep with the theme) is available through tumblrs beloved jstor! everyone say thank you @jstor

It was stupid good. So good in fact that the bbc filmed a version and put it on dvd when it debuted. I bought that dvd after I saw the show and put it up on the Internet Archive. The audio is not great but the dancing is spectacular. Ever see a pas de deux around an anatomical dissection? You will.

I do wholeheartedly believe Wes Anderson is a sick sick freak. I like his movies but I definitely think this guy has like a hidden room in his spacious french apartment that he slips into quietly each night and it is just filled with tiny little doll replicas of all the actors he's ever used in any of his movies and he puppets them around and mimicks their voices and shit. and sometimes he'll text Owen Wilson pictures of his little doll with a comb or something from an untraceable number and pair it with like "see how I take care of you Owen?" and then the following day Owen Wilson will find him at the service table and go, "Geez Wes look at this," and Wes will pretend to be all concerned and horrified but there is this calculating almost eager look in his eyes that unsettles Owen Wilson. and the next time Wes is having a little soiree with all his actors, his beloved beloved actors, maybe Owen Wilson will accidentally get lost on his way to the beautiful bathroom and find that little room and see all those dolls and his throat will hitch with horror. And before he can call Bill Murray or Adrian Brody to look a dark silhouette will appear in the doorway and Wes looks sort of resigned when he says, "I see you finally found my secret, Owen," and Owen Wilson will try and pretend that he's fine with it but they both know better. and Wes will go (the look in his eyes back again) "We both know this can't get out, right?" and he'll grin very suddenly and Owen Wilson will laugh along very nervously and leave the room and eat some brioche and when the evening is over he will rush over to his Prius and frantically click his keys but over the cobbles on the beautiful beautiful street there is the sound of footsteps. and tears are running down Owen Wilson's cheeks but he can't say a word and Wes, emerging from the shadows, will gently touch him on the shoulder and say, "look, I'll drive you to the airport, huh?" and Owen Wilson will try to refuse but they both know it's futile. and, halfway through the drive, Wes Anderson will smile and say, "I'll miss working with you" and then perfectly jump and roll out of the car, wiping off his corduroy pants, while Owen Wilson's Prius swerves into a local patisserie, bursting into flames

Did you guys know that the most recent version of sharks have fins that are kinda leg like and they like to walk up onto land?

no way i must have missed an update!

the thing about riverdale is i'm not a gatekeeper im just a bitch so i need to know if you're going to take me seriously when i say words like cycle and genre and gay gene juxtaposing the serial killer gene and THE AUDIENCE KEVIN THE AUDIENCE and comic books being both a sacred and cared for symbol of nostalgia but nostalgia is a monster story that'll kill this whole town and "Many examples of Camp are things which, from a 'serious' point of view, are either bad art or kitsch" and "You got attacked by a friggin bear? Damn. No wonder why you're all messed up" and Riverdale's queer sensibilities have never been on better display than in it's Finale where there are Gay Characters, characters that are queer, and characters who arguably live as an ode to the unlabeled and undefined AND one time they ended an episode by cutting out archie's heart in a parallel universe which made me clap really hard.

I think there must be lots of people who need this?

we should never have taken sea monsters off of maps. just because we know what's there now doesn't mean they couldn't have stayed as geographical mascots or something.

this is one of my favorite posts
