Echo Park Rising, pre-pandemic

The cover of Twin Temple’s first album depicts a man and woman dressed in black, with the woman holding a skull. They are posed in front of an altar upon which a nude woman is laying, and there are tall candelabras behind the altar. The cover reads: Twin Temple Bring You Their SIGNATURE SOUND…SATANIC DOO-WOP

I concur

Letterboxd review of The Furious: HO. LY. SHIT. This was amazing! Not just non-stop action, but some of the best fight sequences ever. Super fun!

Ericka Bailie-Byrne@surlygrrrl· Jul 10

I saw the live-action Moana trailer before Toy Story 5 the other day & I am wildly disappointed in the flat wig they put on The Rock. The audacity to claim his hair is glorious!

Live-action Maui’s flatter, much less glorious hair 🤨

Why are all of these monitors broken? For weeks now. And only on the eastbound side. This station is brand new! @metrolosangeles.bsky.social

🧠 a pin from my collection, a reference to one of my all-time faves 💖

A soft enamel pin of an illustrated brain in a jar with a banner that reads ABNORMAL. A reference to the Mel Brooks movie Young Frankenstein.

I love waking up to gifts 🥰

Gifts from my husband on our 29th anniversary 🥰 On the left: a small book titled A Little Feminist History of Art by Charlotte Mullins. The cover image is a collage by Linders of a man and woman embracing, with a giant fork, held by the woman, stabbing the woman’s eyes. On the right: a card depicting two illustrated owls in a tree, backed by the night sky. Across the top it reads OWL ALWAYS LOVE YOU HAPPY ANNIVERSARY

OMG I AM DED uquiz.com/quiz/rd4pgt/...

Ericka Bailie-Byrne@surlygrrrl· May 23

My result was fairly accurate, I suppose. I’m an atheist who was raised with no religion or even mention of god in the home. I did occasionally go to Catholic Mass and Christian Sunday school with friends. Nothing penetrated.

My result for the test is “Secular or No Religious Affiliation“
