The most iconic pastels have to be the ghost twin's baby blue with pink waistband dresses from 'The Shining'. They stand out so starkly against the 70s decor of the rest of the hotel, but also seep into the Delft flower wallpaper. Such arresting contrast for their murder flashback. #13MorbidMondays

Side-by-side screen caps of the alive and dead ghost twins from 'The Shining'. In the left picture, two identical brown haired twins are standing in a hallways holding hands. They are wearing pastel blue matching dresses with pink silk ribbons around their waist. The hallway has brown and dark blue runner carpet and the walls have a Delft blue flower pattern on the wallpaper. The scene on the right is the exact same hallway, but spattered with blood and the two girls corpses lying in the hall, having been set about with a long-handled fire axe by their father.

I appreciate the Victorian art of flower pressing. The mummified petals compressed between book pages or blotting paper & boards always fade in vibrancy, but take on this veiny, brittle quality. Like aging taxidermy or dusty pinned butterflies in a sun-drenched case. #13MorbidMondays

A selection of antique collected flowers from a Victorian ladie's pocket book, displayed on paper. They are all faded reds and pinks with crisp greenery in-between, and are in the shape of a laurel wreath.

Y'know, finding -explicitly- queer villains in modern media... not that easy? However, y'all know I do stan hard for one fabulous problematic bitch in heels with a canonical femme clone of himself - Starscream. Underdog aspiring to villain, but still a brilliant dastardly boss. #13MorbidMondays

Starscream from 'Transformers: Animated' looking grouchy whilst raising a clenched fist in a taunt against a background of blue skies and burnt trees. His TFA design is base grey with magenta armour and black highlights, he is far more slinky and fabulous in comparison to his kinda blocky designs in G1 and Armada, but still has the arm-mounted phasers, jet engine heels and vents styled as sideburns.

Peyton tends to be super impulsive & jumps the gun a lot (sometimes too literally). He's never been very analytical; relying on street smarts & emotional insight to get by. So if his bones ache supernaturally & muscle memory kicks in, even his Geist wont stop him acting on instinct. #13MorbidMondays

Small graphite icon trimmed from a larger sketch of my OC, Peyton Al-Malick. He's got a distinctly sharp nose, heart-shaped face and a cocky grin. His fluffy hair is slicked back and a bad peroxide blond. He has a gloved finger on the trigger of his sniper rifle up by his shoulder. Drawing is by me, G.B.Bard.

I ended up Mamdani too. That apparent Chudliness is likely due to being a fan of alt-femmes (so what if it's off topic?) and pro-porn stance. The Neo-Luddite & Davos assumptions are probs pretty accurate, I dunno? Most interested by my perfect Hope-Doomer split - impressive at this point in time!

Picture of "Your Results", 92% Woke to 8% Chud, 33% Techbro to 67% Neo Luddite, perfect 50% Hopepilled to 50% Doomer, and 88% Davis to 12% Dubai. My closest match is apparently Zohran Mamdani, which I will take.

Yay for book post arriving! This copy of the "i hate my job" essay collection from @workinggirlspress.bsky.social had quite an adventurous journey to arrive (entirely my fault for messing up the ordering), but it is here now and I legit can't wait to get stuck in! 💙📚

Photo of the collection "i hate my job", essays on sex work by sex workers, edited by Adrie Rose. The title and editor details are in bold lowercase white in a circle surrounding a four-pointed star in the centre of the cover. Around are spread the tools of the modern trade: make-up, press-on nails, ring light, camera phone, mirror, tripod, laptop, prayer candle and a slightly folded 100 dollar bill.

Thoroughly enjoyed the second day of Cymera yesterday. More great panels, including one in digital format. Tried to get around the artist's alley but it was way too busy; ended up retreating to the quiet space to read for a bit instead. Nabbed a few more exciting reads for my book haul too! 💙📚

Second bundle of books from Cymera Fest... this time leaning a tad bit more horror-themed. Technically I brought this copy of Stephen Graham Jones' "The Buffalo Hunter Hunter" from home to get signed. 'Twas my fave book of 2025, and an excellent elevation of the Vampire genre (which had so many insightful additions in '25). A truly cathartic read that got me through the increasing badness of last year with the promise of gory justice. Rhiannon Grist's "Home Sick" is technically not yet released until the end of this month, and as it was one on my horror TBR, I jumped at the early chance to give it a read. And I felt guilty to have nabbed the last copy of Sunyi Dean's "The Girl With A Thousand Faces" from the bookshop shelf as it was in such high demand, but I really enjoyed her previous novel "The Book Eaters" and I was really hyped by the prospect of a water ghost story set both during the WW2 Japanese invasion of Hong Kong and also in 1970s Kowloon Walled City... it appealed to my love of histories being imprinted on places and the ghosts that remain. Also got little booklet previews of the Junji Ito Collection artbook and Terry Pratchett's Discworld Beastiary, as well as a postcard previewing SGJ's next book due out at the end of this year - "Off The Reservation", which is sequel to "The Only Good Indians" (I am very excited for this)!

First day of Cymera Fest was fab! Felt those panels on an existential level - truly inspiring! Signings were great, though I excel at being nervy & awkward in person around folks I admire. Also great to meet fellow work colleagues in attendance - sending y'all nerdy bookish & writerly high-fives. 💙📚

Selfie of me strolling back from Cymera with tree and buildings behind me. My hair is purple hombre (with a maroon at the roots fading to a deep purple in the side swept tips, where it used to be brown-black before). I am wearing large black marble spiral plug hoops as earrings, an "Eerie Impulse" Toxtricity t-shirt with a custom purple bleach tie-dyed denim jacket with neon yellow spikes and "Cursed" fabric patches over it. I have a heavy bag of books over one shoulder.

Photo of today's book haul. Signed hardback of Katelina Watt's "Saltswept", which I am very hyped about for its ottercats, bisexual disaster sea captain, non-binary kid with street smarts and general dysfunctional crew/found family vibes. Signed hardback of Shannon Chakraborty's "The Tapestry of Fate", the second book in her Amina Al-Sirafi trilogy (she is of course also the author of one of my all-time favourites - The Daevabad Trilogy). Postcards of protagonists from "Saltswept". And two paperbacks - "Writing the Magic" and "Writing the Uncanny" which are essay collections on the writing process by authors (I was at the "Writing the Magic" panel and it was fascinating to hear the authors different methods and approaches - also Hannah Kaner, author of the Godkiller trilogy which have constantly come up in my yearly favourites, was part of this panel).

Sketch I did a while back of Peyton & Shiggy as teens circa 1983: rebellious and achingly punk, of course. Probably right around the time Shiggy started awakening as a Mage.

Graphite sketch of two teen punks circa 1983. Peyton is a gangly Lebanese-Brit with soaped-up spikey black hair; a 'The Clash's t-shirt with it's sleeves ripped off; spiked bracelet & collar; and a loose tie covered in safety pins. Shiggy, a black girl born in the West Indies, has a bleached afro mohican hairstyle; ripped plaid jeans held up by loose suspenders; a strappy top made up of customised sewn-together triangles of striped and plain material; and is both smoking a rolled cigarette and drinking a can of beer. The sketch is signed by myself in the bottom left and dated Dec '18.

Happy Birthday! Here is a swiftly sketched prancing goat friend. 🐐

A very sketchy goat drawn on my phone with a blue pen. It is prancing, has "GOAT FRIEND!" written beneath and has dual pink heart stickers above.

Hah, no shit! I mean, Peyton's a raver in the early 90s... trust me, he's taken a lot wilder substances recreationally. Weed is far from being legal or even socially acceptable, but he has the underworld contacts to get a pretty reliable supply. Pure joints mostly, 'cause he's not keen on tobacco.

Chibi art by Bunny of park bench stoner Anna & Peyton. Peyton is weilding the blunt, and Anna has somehow acquired a croissant... because she has the munchies and is a fiend for pastries (she is half French). Anna is rocking a little black goth dress and long black stockings, whilst Peyton is in navy jeans a black t-shirt with heart Guns printed on it and a chunky gold chain. They are being ~classy as fuck~ right now.

Oh yeah... first time I've done one of these skircle things. Pretty accurate for all youz I tend to chat with, and a few I've just weighed-in on conversations with. Good banter!

A Skircle for my Bluesky account, mapping my icon at the centre and icons of all my most interacted accounts in concentric circles radiating out. The icons sit on a cyan background and has an account link at the bottom to @skircle.me - where you can visualise your own Bluesky circle.

More than happy to blab about #AwesomeCharacters... especially when talking weapons. 😎 As a sniper, Peyton's main weapon is a Steyr SSG 69 rifle, in military green. He also has two Beretta M1951 handguns modified with silencers as his sidearms, which he's worryingly accurate with.

Character art of Peyton Al-Malick wielding his trusty Steyr SSG 69 sniper rifle. He is a 26-year old young man with bleached blond hair growing out brown-black at the roots; hazel eyes; light olive-brown skin tone; heavy black leather biker jacket over a white t-shirt; and a baby blue neckerchief. He is battered and bloodstained, but still cracks the cockiest of smiles.

Woot, solo rules have arrived! Let's see how these interact with the main RPG book and its expansions. Wanna take a lil' time to mess around with my characters/fave NPCs, then should be able to get my full review up over on the blog. Excited to see how they wrangle this for solo play. ☢️

A physical copy of the solo roleplaying rules for the Fallout Roleplaying Game, called "Wasteland Wanderer". The art on the front of the hardcover book is of a female lone survivor with Dogmeat the German Shepard heading out onto the torn up wasteland road leading towards a decaying city. Created by Bethesda & Mōdiphiüs.

I probably only caught a handful of episodes of D&D (alongside repeats of Wacky Races & Johnny Quest), but I always had a yearning for more (eventually nabbed the box set in my 20s... still have a soft spot for it's cheesiness). Come Outside was such a unique & England-specific retro oddity tho.

Picture of the animated D&D box art with our Mage, Monk, Ranger, Barbarian, Rogue & Paladin heroes along with their baby Unicorn in the foreground and the five heads of the Dragon deity Tiamat rearing in the background. Of course, this is an earlier edition of D&D, so they have weird class titles like Cavalier, Acrobat, Magician & Thief instead, but ya get the gist.

Photo of Auntie Mabel in a green jacket and leather aviator cap with attached goggles scooping up and hugging a scruffily fluffy white sheepdog cross with grey & dark brown fur patches around the face. This is Pippin, and he is undoubtedly the most important feature of this show. Behind them is a little bungalow and a white and bright polka-dot painted biplane on the front lawn (possibly a small two-person Cesna?). Every episode, Mabel would pop Pippin in the plane, jump in and fly that thing out of her field and off to nearby locales.

If you see this, post a character that starts with the letter A A is for Abby Lockhart

Photo of Abby Lockhart from ER, with slightly blond-highlighted mousey hair, a white doctor's jacket, stethoscope draped around back of neck and looking curiously over one shoulder whilst holding a patient's chart. Probably from later seasons of the show once she decided to pursue getting her M.D.

In the year of our Homestuck relaunch 2025/26, a full decade since it first hit our internet, I'm STILL inclined to post this selfie as instructed: revelling in the crunchy theme mash-up and gnarly well-toned buttocks of this reunion - neigh, defining moment, of the series. Unironically moved. #MSPA

Photo of me side-eyeing a page of MSPA (Homestuck), fulfilling the selfie requirements during this epic interactive piece of media. The piece of fanart on the screen is... well... it's something: a delightfully grotesque rendition of Arquisprite hugging Davepetasprite in glorious colour, muscular, sweaty, bare-buttocked and tail of rippling abs. It is obscene, yet entrancing. And, much as Andrew Hussy probably meant this moment to be stupid and ironically laughed-at... mate... Equis & Nepeta are my fave characters followed closely by the Strider bros ... I legit teared-up. My faves are ALWAYS cursed. They've had so much shit happen to them. They deserve a fuckin' epic reunion as their best selves - wonderful, messed-up freaks that they are. I am posting this with Pride, yo!

So, looks like a lot of folks are hopeful about UpScrolled being an Instagram/Meta killer. I admittedly don't use Insta for much, but some folks still do use it to stay in touch and share photos. Camping on my @ there just in case we start seeing folks jump from the Meta ship.

Screen cap of my page over on UpScrolled. I have nabbed the @LilLostKitten username and have the page title of G.B.Bard (my writer name), I have the same bio data as over here, link to my blog website and currently have the same photo as my icon. The background image is of the trans flag coloured sky I witnessed this winter.

What was your #childhoodcinema? Mine was the old Odeon in Colchester, Essex. Sadly left to ruin after shutting in 2002; in desperate need of refurbishment. A new Odeon opened in town, but without the space & character of the old building. Same thing happened to our Art Deco Odeon in Edinburgh.

Black & white photo of the old Odeon building on Crouch Street in Colchester, Essex. This was probably taken sometime in the 60s-80s, before I was born and even longer before I rolled into town as a toddler.

Black & white photo of the building's interior, with its balcony and lower seating. It had an interesting ceiling as well, with many indented plaster panels. Seats were probably awful for taller folk, but I was still a tiny child, so likely didn't care all that much.

Photo of the front of the building from what seems to be the late 80s (they're showing Top Gun and Room With A View), so likely a few years before I was there. Brightly lit posters and light ulbs like stars twinkle in the foyer as youth hang around outside waiting for their screen to open.

Picture from sometime in the last decade. The building is fully boarded up with grey boards. The interior suffered a malicious fire at one point and looks utterly delapidated. It is still a lovely impressive early 20th century cinema buildings though. Shame it has gone to ruin.

Yay for all the new followers! Love it when an artist with an impressive new style shows up on my timeline! Might as well throw m'boi Peyton in the ring. He's my main OC from The World of Darkness/Geist: The Sin-Eaters universe. Geist-bound, coroner's assistant, Lebanese sniper & bisexual disaster.

Commissioned piece of Peyton Al Malick artwork; blood drenched with his trusty sniper rifle, smirking with a sparkle in his hazel eyes, badly bleach-blond tousled wavey hair, leather jacket with white t-shirt and sky-blue neckerchief. Neon blue and pink highlighted against a black background.

RP figurine I modelled of Peyton on Heroforge with a red-lined biker jacket and most of his usual garb - just dual-weilding his twin modified Berettas instead of his sniper rifle (which is slung on his back).

Sketch I drew of a slightly younger Peyton during his time in the militias in the Lebanese Civil War - hair slightly longer and not bleached-to-hell, overcoat and beret on, and a good deal less jaded than he currently is.

Face model I put together for Peyton in Dragon Age: Veilguard, which is pretty accurate to how I've imagined him (closest real-life faceclaim would probably be actor Mark Ghanimé).

So, I did make it home, though was very nearly stranded in Aberdeen because ALL the buses were cancelled. An intrepid Uber driver managed to get me home, but now I am skint AF. Stressful travel is very ugh. However, witnessed a lovely pastel Trans Flag sky beyond the snowstorm!

Photo of a lightly snowy road stretching out before me, grey snow clouds being drawn off to the right to reveal a perfectly pastel sky of pale blue, baby pink and a bank of pure white floofy clouds like toy stuffing. Trans rep sunset goooooooooo! Also witnessed fields with 1-2 foot fresh snow drifts that legit looked like the stiff peaks in fresh cream or egg whites... deadly, but also gorgeously tasty-looking!

TOP 4 GAMES: Outer Wilds: Echoes of the Eye Cyberpunk 2077 Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 VTM: Bloodlines 2 (Hon Mentions: Fallout 4, Silent Hill F, Look Outside, Mario Kart World) 🎮

Poster for the Ultimate Edition of Cyberpunk 2077. Against a crimson and neon yellow background, a femme V with undercut red hair and facial cybernetic mods looks down upon Johnny Silverhand adjusting his glasses, and two of the Phantom Liberty characters.

Poster for Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. Maeleand Verso stand in the centre, facing towards the Paintress at her obelisk. Lune, Sciel and Monoco stand a little further back, red petals scattered on the ground beneath them. A true pity if this game turns out to have utilised GenAI, even for texture work. Seriously indie devs, do not do that shit! The rest of this game is utter perfection, and not using ring-fenced data sets for your AI modelling really ruins what a work of art this is (like literally one of the best western RPGs and new IPs to be released in yeeeeears).

Poster for Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines 2. The skyline of Seattle rises into a smoky grey night sky as a blood-red fog wafts around. Phyre steps out in the foreground with blood dripping from their fangs and fingers and in a swishy vampy trenchcoat, with the shadowy figure of Fabien in his P.I. hat behind them in front of the full moon. Okay, so it's not a Bloodlines game in any fashion, but it IS a good VTM game nonetheless... they just shouldn't have called it a sequel to Bloodlines.

TOP 4 ALBUMS: English Rebel Songs: 1381-1984 by Chumbawamba People's Champion by Käärijä Cry For Help EP by Ksenia Lewis Pathways by The Birthday Massacre (Hon Mentions: Stray Kids 'Mixtape: DominATE', Lynda Carter's 'Fallout 4 OST' & Lady Gaga's 'Mayhem') 🎶

Album cover for Chumbawamba's 1988 acoustic album of revolutionary song. Released the year I was born, the original Vinyl/Cassette had a very stripped-back sound (which I also listened to this year) and was remastered in 1994. The album cover is pretty simple with "In the name of all the poor oppressed in the Land of England. Chumbawmba, English Rebel Songs: 1381-1984" in medieval- style white text on a black background. There is a central roundel with a coloured etching of peasants revolting with torches and scythes possibly from a 18th Century etching/illustration.

Cover of Käärijä's second album People's Champion. It is fully of the artist's face with smokey-eye eyeshadow, double pierced nose, glorious neat moustache and slightly open lips. He is crying a single tear. It is high camp and glorious, as always.

TOP 4 ANIMATED TV SHOWS: Arcane (Season 2) The Mighty Nein (Season 1) Over The Garden Wall (Limited Series) Castlevania: Nocturne (Season 2) (Hon Mentions: New Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt, Devil May Cry) 📺

Poster for Season 2 of Arcane. Vi and Caitlyn assume fighting stances in the foreground as Ambessa Medarda lurks behind them. Over all these characters Jinx looms against a smoky grey-grey night sky, her pink eyes regarding them all with disdain. "Arcane League of Legends" is in brass art deco text in the foreground.

Poster for Over the Garden Wall, which I finally got around to watching this Halloween! A golden title wreathed in birds and climbing plants is at the base of the poster. Above is a picture of Wirt (with his conical red hat) and Greg (wearing a teapot on his head) walking into the forest of the Unknown. Beatrice the bird flies behind them and Greg has his loyal frog friend clasped under one arm. The light shining behind them casts dappled shadows at their feet as they walk into the wood.

Poster for Season 2 of Castlevania Nocturne. The ensemble cast gathers in the foreground, surrounding Richter and Annette who seem to be holding a glowing light. Above them Alucard fights Drolta in her winged and clawed succubus form. The cat-vampire form of Erzsebet Bathory stares down on them all with glowing red eyes and wild mane of red hair.The Title is at the base of the poster with "Only on Netflix, Now Playing".

TOP 4 LIVE ACTION TV SHOWS: Extraordinary (All) Andor (Season 2) Peacemaker (All) Say Nothing (Limited Series) (Hon Mentions: Glass Heart, Daredevil: Born Again, The Rig, Murder Mindfully) 📺

Poster for Extraordinary, with main characters Jen and Carrie sitting on their apartment sofa with their flatmate Kash sprawled along the sofa top and former-cat-now-man Jizzlord sitting on the carpet by their feet. A man casually shows off his superpowers and flies past the window outside, showing there world is not quite normal. The tagline "What if everyone had a superpower except you?" hovers above the pink neon title and there is a Hulu blurb at the foot of the poster saying "Original series premieres Jan 25".

TOP 4 FILMS: Sinners Sister Midnight Low Rider The Life of Chuck (Hon Mentions: Some Nights I Feel Like Walking, Wake Up Dead Man, Planet B, 28 Years Later) 🎥

Poster for Ryan Coogler's Sinners. It has the entrepreneurial twin brothers of Smoke & Stack against the backdrop of the rising sun, below them are Delta Slim the musician, Cornbread the bouncer, and leading ladies Pearline and Mary. At the foot of the group, with embers floating around them in a misty backdrop are Grace the store barkeep, Remmick the dubious travelling Irishman, and Sammie the Griot with his silver-plated guitar. At the top of the poster is "From Ryan Coogler director of Black Panther & Creed" in small white text. Below the tableau is "Michael B. Jordan, SINNERS, We Are All Sinners, Only in Theatres April 18, Shot with IMAX film cameras" in a mix of flame yellow and white text.

Poster from the Sister Midnight movie. The background visual is of Uma, the protagonist, with a white bandage taped across her broken nose and holding her hair piled up on top of her head with one hand. She appears to be very frustrated and is sitting in front of a cream tiled wall with yellow plaster above it. The text "Radhika Apte, Sister Midnight, A Film by Karan Kandhari" is central in red text. There is a BAFTA Nominee badge and the quotes "Unapologetically wild","Radhika Apte is sensational" and "Fiery & unpredictable" included up the top of the poster. At the bottom it says "In cinemas March 14".

A screen still from the film Low Rider, as it is an indie production still on the film festival circuit and does not yet have an official poster. It is a photo of protagonist Quinn in a neon zebra stripe midriff top nervously raising her hands in the air and Harley standing beside her in their beanie hat, hoodie and checked shirt. They are standing in front of a mud-spattered off-road vehicle on desert terrain with a white building and tropical greenery in the background.

Poster for The Life of Chuck. The titular character of Chuck, played by Tom Hiddleston in a business suit and horn-rimmed glasses, is swanky freeform dancing on a rippling plain of star-infused water, with a bright sun reflecting blue over his shoulder. The lead actors and title is at the top of the poster with the subtitle "Every life is a universe all its own", and at the base of the poster is "Based on the short story by Stephen King, Written for the screen and directed by Mike Flanagan".

Book cover of The Buffalo Hunter Hunter by Stephen Graham Jones. The background image is of a brown-coated buffalo with haunting eyes, snow upon its muzzle and worn horns. The title is central in a bright, stark red and there is a note that this is a NYT Bestseller.

Book cover of The River Has Roots by Amal El-Mohtar. The Title and swirling graphic of a river's meanders is in silver foil. Between the river curves is a set of three pink flowers in bloom. Beneath the title and graphic is 'New York Times Bestselling Author' and the author's name in red.

Book cover of Faithbreaker by Hannah Kaner. A jackalope prances in the centre of the cover with the title and author's name arcing around its front paws in an orb of night sky suspended over water. Carved stones supporting baubles of candlelight are dispersed on this seafront, and tree roots curve around flasks, cups and bottles at the foot of this standing stone.

Book Cover of Lights Out by Navessa Allen. There is a NYT Bestseller blurb above the author's name at the top and "Lights Out an Into Darkness novel" at the base of the cover. Centrally there is art of a blue skull with an X in one eye and a heart in the other. All around are flowers also in the same shade of blue.
