Watching “The Star Beast,” I was reminded of something I wrote in a comment on this site, many years ago:

Funny how in reality Joseph Campbell was the kind of guy Indiana Jones would’ve punched in the face. Hard.

Fuck this company and the herb so hard. They’re not even going to let the writers do any kind of goodbye or even tell people that the site is shutting down.

I’ll miss all of you. I’ve been commenting here for a decade, enjoyed many great writers, and met a lot of wonderfully kind and thoughtful people. Thanks, Jez. I’ll miss ya. The 500 days of Kristin will never die!
