Mary Shelley departed this mortal coil today in 1851. The horror genre' wouldn't be where it is today if it wasn't for her.
Raise a glass to the dear lady, won't you?

Stormy Daniels isn’t the only porn star Trump was in contact with in 2006. He also was with porn star Jessica Drake. He offered her $10,000 & the use of Trump’s private jet if she agreed to sleep with him. She tells the story in video below. #TrumpSexProbe

Spiders are extremely hygienic animals, despite what many people choose to believe. Excellent housekeepers in their own right, they also help to keep our own domiciles free from pests. Live clean, live well and let spiders into your life! #LoveSpiders #ClassicArachnology 🕷️🕸️

Imagine playing a music video from YouTube on your speakers and having Alexa “hear” an order for two tons of creamed corn. Welcome to AI attack hell. trib.al/mZjovOs

Something that’s so important to me as a candidate is to secure more educational funding for students with disabilities, particularly those on the autism spectrum.
By investing in their childhood, many can go on to have rich lives and careers. It saves money in the long run.

This year marks the 200th anniversary of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, and you can expect to see lots of products and events tied to the celebration. First out of the gate is Rockport Publishers’ Classics… dreadshare.com/2DfNqpG #Contests #News #ClassicsReimagined #horror

Instead of marching & begging for the city to remove Confederate statues from city parks, some Black men in Memphis purchased the parks that had statues of Jefferson Davis & Nathan Bedford Forrest (founder of the KKK). Then THEY had the statues removed from THEIR property #Salute

A boy asked his bitcoin-investing dad for 1 bitcoin for his birthday.
Dad: What? $15,554??? $14,354 is a lot of money! What do you need $16,782 for anyway?

I just read a bunch of disparaging stuff about "casual" Star Wars fans. Gatekeeping has no place in fandom. You don't need to be able to name every character, every location, etc. If you like Star Wars, then it's for you. You don't have to prove yourself to anyone.
