Grey Noise (Marcus Hawke)
"Evan is just trying to get his store, REWIND VIDEO, up and running. Fate, unfortunately, often has other plans. Then he finds something that would be the perfect touch, an old vacuum tube TV. One that keeps turning to static. And it too has other plans.
It follows you.
Drives you.
It’s already inside you.
Lose yourself in…GREY NOISE."
The King in Yellow (Robert W. Chambers)
"A collection of short stories, most of which revolve around a fictional two-act play of the same title: The King in Yellow. Although the play is never described in any great detail, anyone who reads it is driven to madness."

“hunter is going to tear strips off crosshair” this and “hunter is going to yell so much” that
hunter has spent two seasons trying to stop omega sacrificing herself at every opportunity, while crosshair has been obliviously kicking his feet in his little cell, not knowing the unplumbed depths of nonsense he’s been missing
hunter should approach crosshair with a grim look and a soft shake of the head. he sits down heavily. claps crosshair’s shoulder, making crosshair flinch. then hunter cracks open a beer and passes it over. “fucking kids, eh?”

Netflix is releasing a new documentary about Alexander the Great. Just saw the trailer. And let me tell you I am scared to watch it.
New LOTR - huge disappointment.
New Three Musketeers - huge disappointment. (Still haven't seen the second part tho.. because I am a fucking coward OK?!)
New Alexander...
Can I have at least one thing I love and that keeps me sane during the fucking war without it being butchered? Pleeaase? Can it be good and beautiful and truthful?
*laughs hysterically, cries, crawles away in fear and shame*

Sacré Bleu: A Comedy d’Art (Christopher Moore)
"The story surrounds the mysterious suicide of Vincent van Gogh, who famously shot himself in a French wheat field only to walk a mile to a doctor’s house. The mystery, which is slowly but cleverly revealed through the course of the book, is blue: specifically the exclusive ultramarine pigment that accents pictures created by the likes of Michelangelo and van Gogh. To find the origin of the hue, Moore brings on Lucien Lessard, a baker, aspiring artist and lover of Juliette, the brunette beauty who breaks his heart. After van Gogh’s death, Lucien joins up with the diminutive force of nature Henri Toulouse-Lautrec to track down the inspiration behind the Sacré Bleu. In the shadows, lurking for centuries, is a perverse paint dealer dubbed The Colorman, who tempts the world’s great artists with his unique hues and a mysterious female companion who brings revelation—and often syphilis (it is Moore, after all). Into the palette, Moore throws a dizzying array of characters, all expertly portrayed, from the oft-drunk “little gentleman” to a host of artists including Édouard Manet, Paul Gauguin, Georges Seurat, Claude Monet, Camille Pissarro and Pierre-Auguste Renoir."

Blue exorcist and d.gray-man both have the crowning achievement making me want no one to end up with the main character. I don’t ship a single gay or straight ship for Rin or Allen. I ship Rin with friendship and Allen with therapy. My only actual ship in both of these series is Noise Marie and Miranda Lotto. Those two are the best couple in any manga and they’re just background characters
