A Series of Personal Explosions

Thinking about… Grieving the undead.
You aren’t dead, but you’re moving 12 hours away.
You aren’t dead, but you’re leaving our friend group.
You aren’t dead but you’ve moved to a different state and now we text twice a year.
You aren’t dead but you blocked me.
You aren’t dead but we stopped talking, not on purpose but so long ago that I wouldn’t even know what to say to you now.
You aren’t dead but you’re a stranger to me now.
You aren’t dead but we lost touch and now I don’t even remember your username.
You aren’t dead but I ended things with you and now we never speak.
You aren’t dead but I still have to grieve you. Whether I’d change it if I could or not, you’re still a presence that I’m used to and now you won’t be there anymore.
And so I grieve.

Bruce: Cassandra has done nothing wrong ever in her life
David Cain: she killed a man
Bruce: no she didn’t
Cass: I killed a man
Bruce: no you didn’t
Bruce, watching a video of Cass killing a man: this is fake.

If we could end this together, that’s the dream. I sat down with my girls and I’m like, ‘OK, so what does dad do, girls?’ What do I do? And I laid out the scenarios for them. Lyric said it and then Ruby agreed, 'Go be with Uncle Jay and have fun.’ And that doesn’t mean that I’m not having fun in other places, but they know the most fun I’m going to have is with my best friend of the last 40 years.
I didn’t know immediately, but I thought [AEW]’s where I wanted to go. I really thought that working with Jay again was what I wanted to do and how I pictured it in a perfect world. Beth said, 'What’s your perfect world? 'I was like, 'My perfect world is that I end my career with Jay.’ So suddenly that perfect world looked like it could be there. It’s tough to pass that up.— Adam Copeland on working with Christian Cage and ending their careers together (for CBS Sports by Shakiel Mahjouri)

Sometimes I really wonder why folk horror has not taken the story of Frank Slide, which happened April 29, 1903 in Frank, AB, Canada, when the side of a goddamn mountain named motherfucking Turtle Mountain on account of its habit of moving responded to having a coal mine built into it by dropping roughly 110 million tonnes of limestone on a fucking town at 4:10 in the morning when they were mostly asleep in their fucking beds.
How is this not the most repeated historical horror story of like… you can visit the site and see it *right now* there’s still a mountain that had half of its face collapsed in on itself.
There’s a museum dedicated to it and a log of who all was assumed dead, who was working in the mine still at the time. You can visit it and see it and like. It’s preserved history. It’s a disaster *caused by coal mining* it’s like everything that folk horror history thrives on. This should be something people talk about more. I think it’s an important story to tell. And so incredibly haunting.
