Some quotes of Vanna Bonta
“Truth may sometimes hurt, but delusion harms.”
“The real plot in fiction parallels life in that it happens within the characters.”
“The true poem rests between the words.”
“The impact of space activities is nothing less than the galvanizing of hope and imagination for human life continuum into a future of infinite possibility. . . . Space is as infinite as we can imagine, and expanding this perspective is what adjusts humankind’s focus onto conquering our true enemies, the formidable foes, ignorance and limitation.”
“Sex in space is not just a good idea, it's survival.”
“We are the ancestors of those gardening the universe.”

Join the Grue-Crew and special guest host Renee St. Aubin as they revisit the sword-and-sorcery cult favorite, The Beatmaster (1982), from Phantasm director Don Coscarelli. The cast includes Marc Singer, Tanya Roberts, Rip Torn, and John Amos. The film played so much on HBO that the acronym was jokingly referred to as, “Hey, Beastmaster’s On!” This film has it all: bat people, killer ferrets, black-dyed tigers, and much more. Casting choices that didn’t make the cut? Demi Moore as Kiri (played by Tanya Roberts) and Klaus Kinksi as Maax (played by Rip Torn). Could this be Jeff Mohr’s new favorite Eighties film? You’ll have to listen to find out.
At the time of this writing, The Beastmaster is available to stream from Amazon Prime and on physical media as a 4k Ultra HD Two-Disc Set from Vinegar Syndrome.
Every two weeks, Gruesome Magazine’s Decades of Horror 1980s podcast will cover another horror film from the 1980s. The next episode’s film chosen by Crystal, will be House (1985).

Quantum fiction is a literary genre that reflects modern experience of the material world and reality as influenced by quantum theory and new principles in quantum physics. The genre is not necessarily science-themed and blurs the line separating science fiction and fantasy into a broad scope of mainstream literature that transcends the mechanical model of science and involves the fantasy of human perception or imagination as realistic components affecting the every day physical world. Quantum fiction is characterized by the use of an element in quantum mechanics as a storytelling device. In quantum fiction, everyday life hinges on some aspect of the quantum nature of reality.
The genre reflects the modern human experience of new perceptions about material reality as affected by quantum physics, which transcends mechanical models of science and factors in imagination and human perception as components of reality.

3 апреля отмечается веселый неофициальный праздник – Всемирный день вечеринки или Всемирный день пати (World Party Day).
Слово «party», которое сегодня часто используется в лексиконе молодёжи, заимствовано из английского языка, по-русски обозначает вечеринку, причём любого уровня – от торжественного приема до молодежной тусовки в неформальной обстановке. Тематика, характер и сценарий мероприятия зависит от организаторов и участников. Вечеринки популярны во всем мире, ведь на них отдыхают, общаются или просто приятно проводят время.
Однако, не смотря на весёлый характер праздника, он был создан с серьёзными намерениями. Дело в том, что идея организовать День пати пришла из фантастического романа «Полет» американской писательницы Ванны Бонта (Vanna Bonta, 1958-2014): повествование книги заканчивается обратным отсчетом до 3 апреля 2000 года, когда во всем мире должен пройти массовый праздник, объединяющий человечество. Этот роман вышел в свет в 1995 году, а уже 3 апреля 1996 года в США прошёл первый День вечеринок, который прошёл под девизом: «Вечеринка – это противоположность войны».
Главной целью праздника было провозглашена идея, что для создания лучшей, качественной реальности, в которой живёт каждый человек, нужно предпринимать положительные и активные действия, радуясь жизни вместе с другими людьми, а не просто пассивно озвучивать мысль «мира во всём мире».
