Has anyone except me and Roanoke Gaming actually read these books? Idk man, but here’s Kat Foss, professional asshole and hopefully the first person to baptize a child with bourbon. I don’t know anything about human anatomy or sniper rifles but let’s be honest, neither do you.

the beauty in the mr carey’s zombie series is that it focuses specifically on the children, the ones who grow up during wartime, and the ones BORN during wartime, and the allegory of the zombie plague works in this case bc the stories are a social commentary on the ways humanity has failed the youngest and yet-to-exist generations, and a warning that if environmental degradation isn’t stopped and socioeconomic conditions haven’t improved enough for the children to inherit the earth, don’t be surprised if they’re the only survivors of the zombie plague with the plague now a symbiont instead of a parasite.

Technically this is a prequel to The Girl With All The Gifts, but it is also a sequel and also contemporary with its events. Unfortunately, I think it undermines what the first one was saying just by having the perspective shift to a full human character. Like I thought the whole point of the first one is that the hybrid children are the future and that fearing them is standing in the way of humanity's survival. Things can't go back to the way they were and so we must be fundamentally changed.

I mean in a vacuum it was an okay book, I rather liked the perspective character and it would have been a fine zombie apocalypse, but as a follow-up nah. There's no surprises because what they're trying to figure out we already understand from the first one, and it doesn't add anything but risks taking away from its own message.

Y’all know I’m always on my FOB shit but there’s a TikTok account (NotWildlin) who has put me back on it even harder this week.

He’s talking about the bridge in Chicago is so two years ago.

You want apologies Girl you might hold your breath until your breathing stops forever (forever) The only thing you’ll get is this curse on your lips i hope they taste of me forever (forever) And there's a light on in Chicago (every pane of glass) And I know I should be home (every pane of) And all the colors of the street signs (every pane of glass) They remind me of the pick-up truck Out in front of your neighbor's

This bridge fucks so hard and I feel like it’s one of their songs that doesn’t get talked about enough. It does not get the respect that it deserves.

He also has this tiktok talking about Pete Wentz and how fucking good his lyrics are. “Pete Wentz is your favorite rapper’s favorite rapper.” Idk man I just love it here. And I love this dude. Go watch him. 😌
