Being Afraid of Being Abducted by Aliens
I would highly recommend this as a cornerstone of childhood. We had so many alien abduction, alien theory, alien story books in my house that I was convinced it was going to happen. I made my sister close the blinds every night so that I could be safe – which I guess isn’t chill because then she would get abducted…

I went through a phase when this happened to me too. There used to be this movie that played all of the time that i found so scary as a kid. I am pretty sure it was called Fire in the Sky. There was a scene where these aliens abducted this guy and did experiments on him

whalebutt can’t imagine seeing Fire in the Sky as a kid, I only saw it recently and that abduction scene was so brutal! really incredible practical effects though, all time favorite horror movie scene for me now

stevenmarkow I need to check it out as an adult! I only remember bits and pieces, but some of the abduction/experimentation bits stuck with me. 🛸

cinema clubs
went to a cinema club - this is what it's all about. community is real! even in the city! it's not all over. i watched natural enemies and boxing helena with my friend and ally charlie. the first was awesome, the second was less so - but arguably more fun. sherilyn fenn is not a star, she is something else entirely.

The Roadside America App
I’m a big tourist in America and have always been infatuated with American oddities. Roadside America has hands-down the best list of freaky places to see. I have planned countless trips around their lists. Their app also feels very web 1.0 which is fitting to me with all the nostalgic locations that are listed. You really have to put work into finding the treasures on there – so it's just the real heads that end up visiting these places.

Blythe Dolls
I love collecting pretty much anything cute or haunted. Blythe Dolls are perfect because they are the right amount of kawaii and scary. I spend hours every night looking at them on eBay and Etsy. This helps me sleep and I feel like it soothes my anxiety, and possibly helps with my insomnia. The image is of my Blythe Doll – found in Tokyo – that was customized and happens to look like me. She's wearing a custom I’m Sorry by @esoteric.dolls.

Crying in Public Places
I guess I'm an exhibitionist because this feels good. I used to do this a lot when I lived in Toronto.
