DONE HERE. FIND ME IN THE BLUE PLACE.

Novelist, movie geek, and yuletide fanatic. Also a business analyst, because none of that pays the bills. (he/him)

[Erin Snyder @ErinLSnyder]

I'm on ALL the sites. If you've heard of it, I'm probably there under the same user ID - erinlsnyder.

At present, I'm only really active on Bluesky. Could change if the winds change, but for now it's looking like that's going to be the new Twitter.

[Erin Snyder @ErinLSnyder]

@usse1965 Sorry - I'm holding firm to the "mutuals" clause, and I'm pretty sure this is the first time we've interacted.

[Erin Snyder @ErinLSnyder]

Got another invite for the blue place. If we're mutuals and you want out of the dead place before the billionaire demands your credit card number, DM me.

[Erin Snyder @ErinLSnyder]

Oh, hey, Trump's using this cesspool again, so I'm basically out for good. I'll be back when I've got more invite codes to the blue place to distribute, but other than that, fuck this site and the shithead who bought it.

[Erin Snyder @ErinLSnyder]

@baddestmamajama Oh my God, I want the "Die Hard in a tree" movie. Can it be a Christmas tree, in keeping with the original's setting?

Wait. I think I just pitched remaking "Pluto's Christmas Tree"...

[Erin Snyder @ErinLSnyder]

@SiddhantAdlakha I certainly don't believe you - it's obvious you're lying. I mean, if that movie was real, I'd definitely have heard about it.

Not even a believable Photoshop on the obviously fake poster. As if a major studio would ever release something that cheesy!

[Erin Snyder @ErinLSnyder]

No invites right now, but I *think* I'll get one in a few days. If we're mutuals and you're looking to ascend to the better, bluer place, send me a quick DM.

[Erin Snyder @ErinLSnyder]

@WilliamBibbiani Yeah - I'm not sure I'd call it a good movie, but I was pleasantly surprised by how much fun I had with it.

[Erin Snyder @ErinLSnyder]

Twitter is dead. Like, weirdly symbolically dead, thanks to the baffling decision to replace it with a giant "X".

The corpse is rotting. You don't want to be here for the next part.

[Erin Snyder @ErinLSnyder]

It sucks that a rich asshole ruined a site that's fostered countless communities for decades.

But make no mistake - the communities are what matter, not the platform. It's easier and faster to rebuild than you'd expect. It's just a matter of agreeing WHERE.

[Erin Snyder @ErinLSnyder]

The Block button's officially going away.

I'm really sorry I don't have any invite codes right now.

As soon as you find a ship to jump to, leap. The only reason to stay here is to facilitate finding mutuals and accounts you love on the next site.

Twitter's done.

[Erin Snyder @ErinLSnyder]

@MoviesSilently The Great Rupert is a forgotten gem of a Christmas comedy (and - depending on how its themes are interpreted - may even qualify as a rare *atheist* Christmas film). Highly recommended.

[Erin Snyder @ErinLSnyder]

If you can score an invite, the new place is better than this. And it'll be better still once more of you get there.

[Erin Snyder @ErinLSnyder]

@KaijuNellie Requiem is definitely the installment they've got queued up in the blu-ray player waiting for me in hell, but I will not dispute The Predator is just awful.

(I kind of love Predators, though. It's so wonderfully silly).

[Erin Snyder @ErinLSnyder]

@KaijuNellie Yeah, if you ever decide you hate your eyes and want to punish them, re-watch the maternity ward scenes.

The people who made that movie are LUCKY they made a movie so bad everyone's brain had checked out by that point.

[Erin Snyder @ErinLSnyder]

@KaijuNellie Also, because the predalien basically has dreadlocks, it really feels like there are racist undertones folded into that metaphor.

The absolute low point of either franchise, which is really saying something.

[Erin Snyder @ErinLSnyder]

@KaijuNellie The movie tries to run with Alien's central metaphor around sexual assault and the fear of carrying a rapist's child, but clearly doesn't understand *why* this was present in the original, so instead they just use it for exploitative, vaguely misogynistic shock value.

[Erin Snyder @ErinLSnyder]

This place still operating?

Oh, I guess it is. Huh.

That's disappointing. I'll check back in a few days.
