from my TIFF 2025 article, in which i go and see ntbtstm www.aisterionblog.com/2025/10/ai-goes-to-tiff-2025.html

A many-hours-long hiatus followed after I Swear, as I cruised around the Spadina area for a little while, looking at the many shops and places to rest one's legs. It came as no shock to me that, quite close to the Spadina streetcar line was a little place well-known for its repertoire of musical guests as well as its connection to a Toronto-set internet-turned-television series-turned movie I keep missing for some reason.

The Rivoli is a place that I don't think I need to elaborate on. It's the Toronto equivalent of CBGB or the Roxy. Of the musicians and groups that have played here, I'll list some.

Adele, Arcade Fire, Beck, The Flaming Lips, Hole, Iggy Pop, Stone Temple Pilots, and Sum 41, of the most well-known.

Playing upstairs that day was a blues trio, Little Magic Sam. I tipped them quite decently, and plan to get myself a physical CD of their music. They were very nice, and I'd love to support them when I can.

Downstairs, I talked with the bartender, asking about the significance of the bar. "You here because of Nirvanna the Band?" he asked. I had to answer truthfully. He continued...his take on the Rivoli's significance had to do with its cultivating environment, where both comedians and musicians are allowed to flourish their talents, no matter what kind of music or comedy they do. I asked to go to the back to see the main stage, which he allowed.

At the main stage was, of course, a main stage, and a bar to the right rear. Another bartender came around, and seeing my Industry pass, asked me if I was with Janus Films. That was a very nice compliment...

I explained that I wasn't, and I was here just visiting as part of a study abroad program, and asked what his favorite thing about the Rivoli was. He said he was a big Blue Rodeo fan, and that knowing they'd performed where he works was pretty cool. Eventually, the man from Janus Films arrived, and I was told that a private party was to be held within the hour. I wished them well, and headed out.

Excerpt from "Burka" Wikipedia article.

Burkas were part of the customary male garb of various peoples inhabiting the Caucasus region. Burkas were adopted by Russian cavalry, and worn as part of the Russian military uniform from the middle of the 18th century until the 1850s, during the Caucasus War. Vasily Chapayev was portrayed wearing a burka as a part of his military uniform in a 1934 Soviet film.

I had a similar thing happen last year that I automatically clocked as a scam when the "artist" said they'd draw absolutely anything asked which is fucking insane

Discord interaction.

>Nami
I don't have any limit set yet

>aisterion
What do you find gross, what offends you?
Would you feel comfortable putting your name on a piece you've done of say...Hitler or fetish art of something illegal

>Nami
(replying to previous) Yea I'm totally okay with it

>Nami
Nothing tbh

>aisterion
I find it hard to believe that you don't find anything gross and that you'll draw absolutely anything

Discord reply, in response to:

"I do understand your
suspiciousness but I'm not that typa person"

>aisterion
When I hypothetically said that if someone asked you to draw Hitler, you answered you would so that's a very very big red flag alongside all this other stuff

Your ko-fi description is also assumed to be Al judging on this scan from GPTZero

I don't often update my serializd listings but this was something of ample context

"During this dream, lyami ends up awakening the long-dead and supposedly peacefully-passed Chibita Jyuurozaemon Mitsutomo's ghost, to which much of the episode lyami spends in an insomniac stupor whilst trying to exorcise this mysterious take on Freddy Krueger who is apparently jealous that Totoko has feelings for him so bad. This isn't exactly a tonal take on the Elm Street films as one might imagine, but it's much more in line with something like Evil Dead 2 or Army of Darkness. If I ever get to meet Sam Raimi one of these days, I'll have to show him this episode."

edit 6/20/26: i met sam raimi but he was kinda busy

real actual back of the book

Back cover of "Puppy, Come Home!" by Zachary Potter. The provided author photo is of a somewhat hairy 20-something man in a grey Jerma985 tank-top waving, taken on a webcam.

"Hi, I'm Zachary Potter, the author of this book. I have a knack for telling stories, and this is just one of them. I make videos, video games, and more. If you want more stories from me, I got a LOT more on the way. Keep your eyes peeled for them."

"I don't really wanna write a description, so I'm writing this pointless text instead, so that it doesn't feel so empty when readers decide they feel like reading it. Hope you enjoy this story, kids. Parents, love your kids equally, or they will run away. Otherwise, what kind of parent ARE you?"

I can't discern the font, but it looks between Georgia and Times New Roman on a blank white background. The graphic design is atrocious.

a little bit of excitement is happening in the mortspace...

Wikipedia screencap, section titled "Cancelled revival".

"On October 27th, 2009, Marvel Characters Inc. filed a trademark for 'Comic books; Comic magazines; Printed periodicals in the field of comic book stories and artwork' under the name Mort the Dead Teenager. The purported usage of the trademark was later confirmed by artist Shawn Crystal in 2025, in that there was an intended reboot comic being developed 'in 2010-ish' with him and writer Duane Swierczynski helming. Crystal states that the revival was planned as a five-issue miniseries, and that him and Swierczynski had completed 10 pages before the project was abruptly cancelled by Marvel.

The miniseries was never formally announced, and no art has resurfaced in the time after its
cancellation. The trademark for the planned revival was abandoned on July Ist, 2013."
