Roland: Keep talking and I’ll shoot you like a lame horse.

Eddie: Well I think i’d be a pretty cool horse, actually-

Jake: -NO!! THATS NOT WHAT THAT MEANS!!

Just had my HR officer call and ask "Why did you put nearly an hour on you timesheet down to 'it problems'?"

Me: "IT problems, i.t. not it. My computer bricked."

HR: "Oh, okay." *hangs up.*

Did, did he think I had workplace Pennywise related issues? Like they put my stapler in jelly or something?

📼 🌹 THE DARK TOWER MIXTAPE🌹📼 

...is audio fanart I make for my Stephen King Patreon. It’s a newbie-friendly audio quest where I narrate and musically score the genre-spanning series' greatest hits in nonchronological, song-length bites. Every one begins with a mini-cover of a relevant song (Crazy Train for “Blaine & Wastes,” La Vie en Rose for “Jake & Rose,” Separate Ways/Worlds Apart for “Eddie & Sky Carriage,” etc) and then either an original composition for the duration, or reworked covers of existing songs (one is a montage of Sabbath riffs and I love it—but I love them all, to death).

Come check it out? Or just enjoy the new cassette art element right here on tumblr dot com. Long days and pleasant nights, sais.

Schlocktoberfest XIII - Day 21: Forest Of Fear

Forest Of Fear (1980) Trailer: *Spoilers Throughout* What’s This About: What if Romero wrote and directed Reefer Madness. Here are some of my observations as I watched the film: All right, my copy of this is going by one of its many aka’s – Bloodeaters. That’s kooky. I’m not at all being sarcastic when I say that I love it when remastered 1080p Blu Rays show the beat up film and dirty camera…

[kinsey3furry300]

The Fast and the Furious franchise is a super-hero expanded-universe where they all have one and only one power, and that power is called car. PROVE ME WRONG!

Roland and Aileen post fall of Gilead

[sharoscylla]

I am sending the original ka-tet to New York City instead of making them deal with the fall of gilead! They have suffered enough! I think they should get to be friends with the NINJA TURTLES

Some notes:

I haven’t decided if Susan lived/came with. On the one hand Susan dying is a key aspect of Roland’s (and Bert’s and Alain’s) fucked up backstory. On the other hand I feel like Susan would be fucking hilarious around April and Casey. Actually Fuckin…. Aileen Ritter and Alain’s sister Claire should also get to come, 1 because Tommy needs his lesbian girlfriends 2 the Susan/Aileen/Claire/April/Sunita/Casey Girls Night would leave no survivors

I feel like Bert and Alain would adapt the easiest to this situation, then Jamie and Tommy, and then trailing a distant last place is Roland… however Tommy would like immediately adapt to technology and hidden city mystic stuff it’s just that he can’t order anything at McDonald’s bc it’s too much pressure

I’ve covered this before in a tdt/tma fic but the only reason anybody can understand spoken or written English is because of Roland’s presence extending Protagonist Plot Comprehension to his party so I’m considering whether a post-Mejis Roland who did NOT receive his quest for the tower (if Susan is alive) also has Main Character Powers and if not gosh I do love “a bunch of people having to live together in close quarters and don’t understand one another until someone makes a breakthrough”

I think objectively the funniest time for them to get drawn out of castle gilead and into New York is literally the first episode but anytime Leo fucks up a portal would be good too tbh

Congratulations splinter you have fucking tripled the number of horrible goblin children you’re responsible for

Every gunslinger autistic as hell… and so is every turtle….
