Supernaut 🏥 - the one where Eddie does research on head injuries for a very injured Steve Harrington. (This one I actually have a decent amount written out for the next chapter I just have to go back and edit + I have all of it planned out)
Megalomania 🦇 - vampire pirate Eddie meets con artist Steve who has daddy issues. (I also have most of this one planned out and began some writing for it but don’t want to spoil to much in summary)

tagged by beloved mutual @columbosunday to share my 9 favorite album covers (this was very fun to narrow down I have sooo many favorites. prepare for info dumping and personal anecdotes below <3)
Tom Waits, Small Change (1976) // coveted number one spot. I’ve loved this photo with my whole heart since the day I first laid eyes on this album. fully encapsulates the feeling of listening to Tom Waits to me
Black Sabbath, self titled (1970) // goddddd this photo. apparently most of the shoot the model was naked but this image of her huddling to stay warm in a freaky witch cloak ended up being theee shot (yeah I have researched most my favorite album art before and love pulling out that info when given the opportunity ok? it’s fine)
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Let Love In (1994)// Nick Cave you will always be famous and beautiful to me. I love portraiture and (it’s a running theme) I love pink. simple and perfect. also a perfect album title
The Kills, Midnight Boom (2008) // this is like. thee band photo of all time to me. I based my personality and personal style off of this album and alison mosshart for a LONG time and still kind of do. means a lot to me
Hole, Live Through This (1994) // love Ellen Von Unwerth so fucking much and also this concept. this is Hole to me. instantly recognizable and (gotta say it again) iconic. reminds me of jawbreaker with rose mcgowan, which is a movie of all time
The Strokes, Is This It (2001) // so iconic. so fucking iconic. this is one that you see for the first time at 14 and it’s burned into your brain. possibly the root of why I’m so horny for leather gloves, I don’t know
The White Stripes, Hello Operator/Jolene single (2000) // my favorite portrait of Meg White, I almost got a tattoo based off of it (still might)!! I still get this haircut every couple years, I still save peppermint themed things, I love you forever Megan Martha White
The Sadies, New Seasons (2007)// this album cover reminds me of a photo I took like 14 years ago and I remember that day and that person and how the light felt sooo distinctly, I love the way this photo makes me feel. it’s soft, gauzy nostalgia and a little bit of puppy love. you’re so cool
Alexisonfire, self titled (2002)// maybe the coolest thing in the world is to describe your sound as ‘two catholic school girls in a knife fight’ like come ON. in perfect diy fashion, these photos were taken by the lead singer. this image has taken up space in my head, rent free, since I first saw it
tagging: @pray1ngmantis @sadtiredqueer @p4nsy @endalaust @meat-wentz @stabbingandorbeingstabbed @leatherdaddyteach @youstakemyheart @void-flesh (literally zero pressure if you don’t wanna, I just know you all have excellent aesthetic/music taste and I found this kinda fun <3)

By Michelle Goldberg July 26, 2024
In “Hillbilly Elegy,” the 2016 memoir that made JD Vance a celebrity, he described constantly remaking his childhood self to fit the rotating cast of father figures his unsound mother brought into their lives. “With Steve, a midlife-crisis sufferer with an earring to prove it, I pretended earrings were cool — so much so that he thought it appropriate to pierce my ear,” Vance wrote. “With Chip, an alcoholic police officer who saw my earring as a sign of ‘girlieness,’ I had thick skin and loved police cars. With Ken, an odd man who proposed to Mom three days into their relationship, I was a kind brother to his two children.”
Vance’s yearning for a father is a constant theme in the book, as is his willingness to rationalize the flaws of the men he looks up to. At one point, he is reunited with his biological father, who gave him up for adoption when he was in kindergarten. The women in Vance’s life — not just his mother, but also his beloved sister, grandmother and aunt — told him that his dad had been “mean” and abusive, but he doesn’t believe it, preferring to think that there had only been “a bit of pushing, some plate throwing, but nothing more.”
His father was a devoted Pentecostal, and for a time Vance gave up his Black Sabbath CDs and became one, too. “I’m not sure if I liked the structure or if I just wanted to share in something that was important to him — both, I suppose — but I became a devoted convert,” he wrote.
“Devoted convert” may be the role he inhabits most naturally. In 2016 Vance speculated that Donald Trump might be “America’s Hitler.” Now he’s his running mate. A lot has been written trying to understand Vance’s ideological journey, but at least part of the story seems to be hiding in plain sight in his book. In attaching himself to the most bellicose patriarch he can find, he’s re-enacting a childhood pattern.
There is, of course, nothing inherently pathological about changing one’s political views. Vance, however, swapped out not just his beliefs but his entire public persona in just a few short years. “Hillbilly Elegy” contains an indictment of “conspiracy-mongers and fringe lunatics” who spread lies about Barack Obama’s religion and birthplace. And it laments the corrosive cynicism that led many in his white working-class community to embrace these falsehoods.
Vance presented their views as self-defeating: “We can’t trust the evening news. We can’t trust our politicians. Our universities, the gateway to a better life, are rigged against us,” he wrote, adding, “You can’t believe these things and participate meaningfully in society.”
Now Vance promotes all these things. He’s argued that Alex Jones is more trustworthy than Rachel Maddow and that Joe Biden may be intentionally flooding the country with fentanyl to kill off MAGA voters. He gave a speech in 2021 titled, “The Universities Are the Enemy.”
Vance’s new worldview can be explained in part by opportunism: He was anti-Trump at a time when Trumpism seemed likely to fail. And he’s said he was “red-pilled” by the cultural upheavals of 2020, a common enough phenomenon, especially in the Silicon Valley circles he travels in. But there is something particularly extreme about Vance’s transformation, suggesting he hasn’t left behind the mutability that once served as a survival strategy.
As Gabriel Winant wrote in a perceptive essay in the journal N+1, “Hillbilly Elegy” is fundamentally a book about unresolved trauma. In one of the book’s final moments, Vance gains some insight into his own behavior by reading up on “adverse childhood experiences,” or ACEs. Kids who endure violent and chaotic childhoods like his, he wrote, “become hard-wired for conflict. And that wiring remains, even when there’s no more conflict to be had.”
His upbringing had taught him that “disagreements were war, and you played to win the game.” Understanding this, he wrote, helped him navigate his relationship with his wife, Usha. But he seems to have stopped there, rather than reckon with how his pugilistic instincts shape his approach to the wider world.
In 2020, Vance wrote an essay detailing his journey from Pentecostalism through the new atheism of Christopher Hitchens and finally into Catholicism. He portrayed his young adult rejection of religion as essentially mimetic, something he absorbed from his university surroundings rather than decided on for himself. One of the things that brought him back to religion was meeting the right-wing venture capitalist Peter Thiel, who would eventually become a patron. Thiel “was possibly the smartest person I’d ever met, but he was also a Christian,” Vance wrote. Vance converted to Catholicism in 2019. By then, he’d become part of a new conservative elite in which many leading intellectual figures were also Catholic.
Now this person of unusual suggestibility has become second in command to a first-order demagogue, giving himself over to MAGA theology. As Mother Jones reported on Thursday, Vance recently endorsed a new book called “Unhumans,” co-written by the “Pizzagate” conspiracy theorist Jack Posobiec, which demonizes progressives as nonpeople who must be crushed by extra-democratic means. “Our study of history has brought us to this conclusion: Democracy has never worked to protect innocents from the unhumans,” the book’s co-writers say.
It is perhaps not surprising that Vance has ended up in this milieu. Authoritarian personalities, as the German social psychologist Erich Fromm argued, long to dominate, but they long just as much to submit.

FRANCISCO GOYA.
Francisco Goya was a Spanish painter and printmaker, born in 1746 in Fuendetodos, Spain and died in 1828 in Bordeaux, France. He is one of the most well known Spanish painters, his work evolving throughout his time from being beautiful, light paintings of the romantic genre to dark, dread driven critical works on a society that he had abandoned in his illness. He first trained under José Luzán y Martínez in Zaragoza but later went to Madrid to study under Francisco Bayou. In 1771 he has his first commission work to paint frescoes in the cathedral after returning to Zaragoza, and went on to become a court painter, documented through paintings the Napoleonic war and in his final years created the Black Paintings.   From 1810 to the end of his life, Goya lived in solitude after becoming deaf, afflicted by anxiety and despair. During this time he painted the Black Painting  on the walls of his farm house he had converted into a studio, a series of 14 large oil paintings that included some of his most well known dark works such as Saturn Devouring His Son and Witches’ Sabbath (1819-1823). Earlier in his life he had also made similar works, one sharing the same title of Witches’ Sabbath (1789) and Witches Flight, which reflect his satire commentary of a heightened ignorance and fear at the time towards the presence of witches, under one of his etchings captioned “The sleep of reason produces monsters”.
Tumblr media
In Goya's work I am particularly drawn to his depictions of satire and social critique regarding superstition, hysteria and misinformation. In later years as Goya's work shifted out of the tropes of the Romantic, he became critical of the state of Spain's politics, religious influence, and society, fearing for the countries future. Using reoccurring themes such as the witch, the donkey or mule, Satan depicted as a goat, Goya speaks to a social structure still constrained by fear of that viewed as ungodly or of sin. The donkey, representing the fool, always lingers in the shadows of men terrified by their visions of these unholy apparitions. The Inquisition was still entirely present during Goya's lifetime, still hunting, burning, executing those accused of witchcraft even up to Goya's death. Focusing on ideas surrounding the witch, and the hair of the witch being a source of power, as well as hysteria and marginalisation towards queer communities, I value Goya's work in similar areas. As queer communities suffering many eras of social witch hunts such as the Lavender Scare, the HIV/AIDS crisis, and now a huge focus on removing access to healthcare for transgender people and even the use of public bathrooms, the hysteria of the witch still survives in a different form. In my work I want to bring power to this narrative. That if wider attitudes towards queer communities is to flush them out in order to publicly persecute and remove them from existence, then why not lean into the power of the witch. Using hair as a material like a witch would, to create charms and wards, it can bring protection to the body in their place of rest from those who seek to harm it.

The people who have crippled you You wanna see them burn The gates of life have closed on you And there's just no return You're wishing that the hands of doom Could take your mind away And you don't care if you don't see Again the light of day Nobody will ever let you know When you ask the reasons why They just tell you that you're on your own Fill your head all full of lies, you bastards!

What inspired the new theme?
i was literally just in my room listening to n.i.b by black sabbath (which is where the lyrics in my blog title/bio are from) and thought that paired with the black sabbath self titled album cover as a header would make a cool halloween theme!

THE HALLOWEEN MASTER PLAYLIST
Halloween is my favorite holiday, and listening to some spooky music and watching horror films is mandatory if you’re really going to get into the spirit of the thing. (I eat candy, and dress like a hobo year-round, so that part of it was a given.) So I thought I’d post a master playlist of seasonal music a few weeks early in case any of you wanted to put something together for your own enjoyment, or maybe a Halloween party you might be planning.
Thinking outside the box (or coffin, if you prefer) I managed to do it without using Monster Mash or The Purple People Eater. But, there are roughly a hundred titles here, and I promise you if you turn down the lights, and close your eyes when you begin listening to it, you’ll have turned every light in the house back on, and double-locked every door.
Happy haunting.

"FROM THE GRINDING RIFF OF THE OPENING TITLE TTRACK..."
PIC INFO: Spotlight on CD booklet cover art to "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath," remastered & re-released under the Sanctuary Records label in 2009. Reissue design: Hugh Gilmour.
""Sabbath Bloody Sabbath" was immediately heralded by the previously reluctant Rolling Stone magazine as "an extraordinarily gripping affair" and "nothing less than a complete success." The album reached Number 4 in the UK charts and 11 in the US charts, where it would go on to achieve Platinum sales success.
From the grinding riff of the opening title track, the album showed that despite the band pushing back musical boundaries, they'd lost none of their aggression. "A National Acrobat" and "Sabbra Cadabra" (the latter, which featured YES keyboard player Rick Wakeman) were equally heavy, imposing tracks, whilst "Killing Yourself to Live" and the sci-fi themed "Spiral Architect" rate as some of the band's best tracks. And even if the excellent title track was curiously rarely featured in the band's live set at the time, the gentle acoustic guitar work of "Fluff" can still be heard as fans file out of Black Sabbath gigs the world over."
-- JERRY EWING for Classic Rock magazine, London, UK, c. March 2009

MARGARITA WITCH CULT Summon Chills with “The Witchfinder Comes”
~Doomed & Stoned Debuts~
By Billy Goate
Tumblr media
Bursting on the scene from Birmingham, England, we welcome to the pages of Doomed & Stoned MARGARITA WITCH CULT. Today the doom rock trio are sharing a new single and music video from their upcoming self-titled debut.
"The Witchfinder Comes" is a menacing number that likely alludes to the Puritan zealots Matthew Hopkins and John Stearne, who hung hundreds of suspected witches during the English Civil War. The song's chorus is as irresistible as its rollicking, Sabbath-style riff-making (and a bit chilling): "Oh son, what you done wrong? All I know is you'd better be gone. Oh son, you'd better run, run. Don't be around when The Witchfinder comes."
In the band's own words, the track is "a macabre tale of an impending witch hunt, climaxing with the subject running in fear over the spiraling coda. The slab of bludgeoning '70s style proto-metal is a stadium sized version of the song which first appeared on the band’s demo cassette that brought the Margarita Witch Cult to the public eye in 2022.”
Margarita Witch Cult is a vibrant, rollicking old-school doomer from edge to center. On April 21st, Heavy Psych Sounds will issue the album in a stunning array of media (pre-order here). Stick it on a playlist with Black Sabbath, Uncle Acid & the Deadbeats, Warlung, Orchid, and Bang.

WATCH & LISTEN: Margarita Witch Cult - "The Witchfinder Comes"
SOME BUZZ
Born from the murky industrial depths of Birmingham, UK, Margarita Witch Cult’s self-titled debut studio album is a tour-de-force in classic metal, hard rock, doom, and mind-melting psych.
A thunderous drum fill propels you into opener "Diabolical Influence" -- a lurching behemoth of a tune that makes easy bedfellows of crushing stoner riffs, Latin incantations, and a simply humongous chorus. The pace quickens with the frantic "Death Lurks at Every Turn" -- a hair-raising thrasher of breakneck snare rolls and unruly guitar solos. "The Witchfinder Comes" only furthers the sense of foreboding, as tales of torture and pleas for exile fall on the ever-deafening ears of the listener. "Be My Witch" comes in hot and heavy as a grungy ode to the forbidden, and the blistering "Annihilation" concludes side A with speed-freak ferocity.
The more adventurous and immersive side B is kick-started with "Theme From Cyclops" –- the deft chops of all three members being undeniable as we gallop into the ambitious, face-melting journey that is "Lord Of The Flies" -- a belting doom groover that culminates in a classic guitar & bass dual to rival even the most virtuosic of axe-wielders. As we near the end of our perilous sonic expedition, "Aradia" serves up an instrumental serving of pure downtuned filth, with sleazy swagger and tasteful shredding that give extra provenance to its author's deep bag of tricks.

The killer blow comes in the shape of the simply savage "Sacrifice" -- an unholy exhibition of undeniable force. The duality of the track makes for an experience that leaves our sweet listener reeling- the bludgeoning weight of its monstrous main-riff giving way to razor-sharp verses and a tripped-out, mind-bending psych jam- only to come crashing back to crushing reality as the final, fatal notes ring out.
With their debut LP, Margarita Witch Cult have crafted a timeless, merciless beast; one that will chew you up and spit you out, yet somehow keep you crawling back for more. The Sabbath City power trio is serving a heavy handed measure of '80s thrash precision mutated with '90s stoner groove. Infatuated with themes of the occult and proto-metal aesthetics, Margarita Witch Cult tell tales of the village witchfinder, omniscient death, archaic blood rituals.
