i actually liked cell, but i love shlockey stupid horror novels.

i think the stand is definitely great, but rereading it many years later (and after learning a lot about writing) i found myself wanting to go back and edit the gently caress out of it, mostly because he reuses phrases waaaay too much. his 90's books were his peak, imo. the regulators and desperation will always be in a tie for my favorites.

Country has always been where marginally talented artists go when they can't make money or draw crowds doing other genres of music. It's a very...odd genre of music.

we got on the waiting list for a fulltime daycare near where I work, since they say to get on as many waiting lists as possible.. we went with a nearby center which offered part-time daycare instead and just schedule around it, since the full-time cost was $2937 a month

that's about the takehome around here of somebody making $42k (apparently poor as dirt in Liz's worldview)

always make sure to check that the price they're giving you is their infant price - a lotta the time they'll dragoon soon-to-be new parents by quoting their pricing for older children, since for infants there's always a premium

the stand sucks rear end. the first half is very good but after half of the characters die and it becomes a weird mostly pointless good vs evil plot it sinks rapidly

the shining, the long walk, christine, it, from a buick 8...any of those could qualify as his best long-form story imo, the stand doesn't even come close

i unironically adore the terrible 90s miniseries version of the stand, which includes kathy bates as the radio shock jock who gets summarily executed on air by the US military for broadcasting truths

Trump is 1000% going to declare a state of emergency and brag about how he sidestepped congress to build da wall. He will do this tomorrow to claim he is saving the workers dems abandoned who arent getting paid again tomorrow (even tho the govt wouldn't immediately open since senators have already gone home for the weekend lol). chuds will eat it up

Dems sue and wall doesnt get built but trump doesnt care.

there's really no other way the goverment re-opens. It's a win-win for everyone, unless you're one of those decorumites that thinks it's gonna set a bad precedent, but lol to that.

I guess the other option is that dems cave and give him some wall money just to get the government open, and at that point your banking on a future democratic president to pull the plug on the project before it gets built because that poo poo is going to take a long time before even a single brick gets laid.
