Bitch Don't Kill My Vibe
Michael Shinafelt

While catching Tender Misfit last night at Hotel Ziggy in West Hollywood, CA I spied a neon sign in the corner of the bar the said "Bitch Don't Kill My Vibe" - This spoke to me on several levels. Of course there is the obvious one that reaches out to everyone on that basic feral level.

Anyway moving into the rest of November it's going to be my official/unofficial motto. Translation: Watch out when you are around me, I'm not gonna take any of your lip! Enough said...

Tender Misfit brought it at Hotel Ziggy last night! If you weren't there, why not???

Please don't underestimate my ability to delete your number and act like I never met you

They laughed at my doodles, I laughed at their chalk outline

Daddy's Got A Secret...
Michael Shinafelt

"Something's comin' over, mmm mmm, Something's comin' over me, My baby's got a secret" - Secret, Madonna

You know when you see someone who is accessible, but looks like they have a secret they will never tell you? The type of people who looks you in the eye and it seems like there is a whole other universe inside them that you want to visit? 

Of course you do! Every individual who has sex appeal for days has this quality. Is what's behind those eyes good or evil? Happy or sad? 

"How it could be, Until you shared your secret with me..."  Indeed...

If it upsets you that I'm just being myself, I'm gonna be more myself, so there!

Those meatballs are really small, I can put four in my mouth at once, the more you know

Saw this saying painted on the sidewalk on my way home from Alcove, where I had the most delicious tuna melt and truffle fries. Day of the Dead brunch if you will. So naturally I had to take a photo of such a provocative thought.

It got me thinking just what could "Art That Kills" mean. My interpretation is any artistic impulse that is repressed by fear of engaging with it. There you go Minions wisdom straight outta Los Angeles, here comes some more, or perhaps not...

A raisin can be in the sun, but it cannot be in the potato salad, the more you know

Meet me in the back. By the dumpster and the rats. Where we lean and things make sense.

"You're going to be happy said life...but first I'll make you strong" - Perfect!

Taylor Swift is the first artist to have 6 albums sell over a million copies in a single week, you go girl!

Spooky Season is over, but it always remains Halloween, Samhain, Day of the Dead in my soul

Did my usual Halloween tradition and watched, what else, the movie that started it all the original 1978 John Carpenter's Halloween! It doesn't scare me like it used to, but it's still great!

Pssst! Cady Heron is now a guidance counselor at North Shore High School, discuss

Woman Crush of the Week - It's Britney Bitch! Britney Spears for her memoir The Woman In Me, got it can't wait to read it!!! 

Caught the pilot for the original Charlie's Angels TV series. Here's some fun trivia Tommy Lee Jones guest starred in it pre-movie fame

Today's goal: defying gravity

FYI - Marigolds are often called "flowers of the dead" knowledge is power

Many people have the wrong idea about me. Honestly I have no desire to clear that sh!t up

Starting to monitor what I eat again today, need to shed some weight, ugh!

Hump Day & Chill

Always Remember...
Michael Shinafelt

Today is the Day of the Dead, so naturally we are going to commemorate it with a Hump Day & Chill.

Day of the Dead is to remember those who are no longer with us and to celebrate them and their contributions to our lives.

This photo is from last year's Day of the Dead celebration at Hollywood Forever Cemetery, hence the skulls in the background.

I did not attend this year, as it tends to be really crowded and I wasn't in the mood for such nonsense.

So let us Hump Day & Chill today by remembering those who are no longer with us.

Peace.

Samhain

"No Tree Can Grow To Heaven,
Unless It's Roots Reach Down To Hell"
Michael Shinafelt 

"Samhain marked the Celtic New Year, the end of summer, and the end of the harvest season. It also signaled the beginning of winter, which they associated with death. On this day, the Celts believed the veil between the living and the dead was especially thin"

I love the month of October and I love that the veil between the living and the dead thins as the month progresses towards Samhain, or as we like to defer to it, Halloween.

Here I am at the Tree of Life appropriately enough at Hollywood Forever Cemetery. I'm at the juncture of Heaven and Hell awaiting Cerberus to take me on my journey.

I'm so excited!

Happy Halloween...

Only 3 More Days Until...Halloween!

Michael Shinafelt


As you can see I am falling apart with excitement, only three more days until Halloween!

The month of October is my favorite time of the year as we celebrate Halloween all month long (well at least I do, and I know many of you f do as well) - honestly it's the most fun I have for 31 days straight of the whole year (not the only fun I said the MOST fun.)

What am I doing for the big H? Presently my only real plan is to attend yoga at Hollywood Forever Cemetery. Then I'm going to let the spirits be my guide for the rest of the day and see where they take me.

I'm sure the journey will be exactly the Halloween experience I need. The spirits always know...

It's always Halloween in my soul!

Boo!

"Come and play with us Michael, forever...and ever...and ever"
Michael Shinafelt

Look who I encountered in the lobby of Alamo Drafthouse Cinemas DTLA (Downtown Los Angeles) yesterday when I went and saw Killers of the Flower Moon...

The Shining Twins! They tried to lure me to the other side with their wonder twin powers, but my powers are stronger and I resisted and managed to get seated in theater four to see Martin Scorsese's latest before it was too late. Mess with me and find out Minions, time to muse!!!

Killers of the Flower Moon is a sweeping, ambitious piece of filmmaking, that being stated it should have been called Killers of my White Ass. It could have been trimmed by a half hour and worked jut fine as a three hour movie instead of the three and a half hour film it is

Next time I go to Alamo Drafthouse I'm going to take that trip to the other side with The Shining Twins, I'm curious

Girls have got balls. They're just a little higher up, that's all. The more you know...

Normal is an illusion. What is normal for the spider is chaos for the fly, indeed!

More Brains, discuss 

Hexing, because murder is wrong

Did you hear that horror films may potentially have a VD disclaimer?! Google it, it's not what you think and in IMHO it's a bridge too far

Upon arrival in heaven do all the "day after pills" greet you? Asking for a friend

Woman Crush of the Week - One of my favorite, not to mention sexy performances in a horror movie is the cast to perfection Nastassja Kinski in Paul Schrader's redo of Cat People which I've seen at least ten times (most likely more)

Isn't it groundbreaking when Gays add a harness to their Halloween Costume? NOT!

So I see a lot of excited chatter about the horror flick The Sentinel being on Netflix like it's  some forgotten masterpiece. I saw that movie and remember it being quite the opposite

It's almost here...5 more days until Halloween!!!

Hello and Happy 12 Days until Halloween!!! This year has been a great Spooky Season thus far and I am excited for the High Holy Day to arrive! 

No one is going to dampen my anticipation, especially you Satan!!! Moving on...

Binged The Fall Of The House Of Usher on Netflix. Loved it! It was darkly funny, appropriately grotesque, creepy AF and completely off the wall.

A lot of people have the wrong idea about me and honestly I have no desire to clear that sh!t up.

Hush little baby, don't say a word, never mind the noise you heard. It's just the beast under your bed, in your closet, in your head...

Dear Jada Pinkett Smith, literally no one cares

For Halloween I'm opening the It's Too Late Petting Zoo, think about it, but not too much

I Want To Play A Game...
Michael Shinafelt

So tomorrow is fittingly Friday The 13th, of course one landed in the middle of Spooky Season, as it should. A friend is coming over not to celebrate it per se but we are going to celebrate it since that is the day he can make it.

I hope our luck doesn't run out tomorrow night, if it does...bring it, and another glass of wine.

I noticed everything, I just acted like I didn't, so there!

Crinkle Cut Fries, ribbed for your pleasure, you're welcome...

Stay away from the ferns, they hate humans

Almost finished binging Red Hot Cherry Flavor on Netflix. Two more episodes to go. That show gets weirder as it progresses 

I would not be surprised to read a headline that goes like this: Taylor Swift Walks On Water 

Finally caught The Strangers there was some really good stuff in it, unfortunately it got bogged down by the really cliche things that were in it. What could have been a great horror movie was rendered merely OK

There was a squirrel staring at my window from the next door neighbors balcony with an evil look in it's eyes...Ugh! I hate squirrels!

Favorite Thing I Saw Online recently - Cardi B makes music for women that shoplift at yard sales LOL!

Woman Crush of the Week - The most underrated Final Girl Amy Steel who was so great in Friday The 13th Part 2

I have no desire to hear one more damned thing about Will and Jada Pinkett Smith and their relationship. I don't know who the people are that actually do

Where can I watch American Psycho? I feel a need to view it again, I love that movie!!!

19 days until Halloween...

It's my first column of Spooky Season, the most wonderful and my favorite time of the year!!! This is me using a photo I took one year at Knott's Scary Farm of an Evil Clown on a maze called a Dark Ride as background.

There was a plethora of strobe lights going on and I was disoriented and could not find my way out so I held my phone up and took the photo of the Evil Clown and asked him how to get the F#ck out of the meat locker, naturally...that's so me!

There's some horrors in this house, "Yes" really!!!

It's the season for Strangers With Candy, indeed...

Guts!

Happy first day of Fall Minions! Yesterday I passed this rather ostentatious advert for Olivia Rodrigo's Guts tour and album in Hollywood. Well I just had to get a photo of yours truly in front of it.

There's this cracked mirror sitting along the sidewalk of the street I live on awaiting picked up buy the sanitation department. So you know I could not resist taking some self portraits of myself in it.

Is there any deep meaning in today's portrait I posted? Not really just a guy having some fun and feeding his creativity. Not everything has a meaning agenda Minions...

Be decisive. The road of life is paved with flat squirrels who couldn't make a decision

Everyone has the right to believe what they want. Everyone also has the right to believe it's ridiculous 

Rewatched David Cronenberg's Videodrome - thought my older wiser self needed to view it, since it was my younger less wiser self was who initially saw it. Better now and quite prophetic.

Grrrowl!!!
Michael Shinafelt

This past Tuesday we got disoriented in yoga. That was the point and the goal of doing so was to put our collective selves in touch with our souls. We were supposed to experience unique feelings throughout the day, and "Yes" I did.

My personal favorite exercise during the course of the journey was getting on my knees and sitting on the ground a growling. It really got me connected to something primal inside me which inhabited my being the whole rest of the day, the more you know...

FYI When disco ended the tambourine economy never recovered

If I said I spoke to a snake today would you believe me???

Why open your legs when you can open the Bible? I can think of several reasons times infinity actually

Had a good time seeing Poltergeist for the first time since it came out, at Hollywood Forever Cemetery. That's correct Minions I saw a movie about a cemetery in a cemetery!!!

Speaking of Poltergeist while I did have a good time, the movie itself is uneven and more akin to an amusement park ride than an actual film. To me it was like The Haunted Mansion at Disneyland

Finally some representation for Lesbians who were horny losers in High School, discuss

I bet if Taylor Swift farted into a microphone it would become a #1 Billboard Hit

Change the narrative: Go laugh in places you have cried

Women Crush of the Week - That's correct Minions we have two icons in one awesome photo, that I didn't know I needed and now is giving me life! Jamie Lee Curtis of Halloween and Mariska Hargitay of Law & Order SVU! Yes!!!

Meet my newest friend Alastair, I encountered him on my way to one of my favorite locals The Kitchen in Silverlake. I love walking to places in my neighborhood, you get to see things through a very different set of eyes than when you are mobile.

Not to mention you get to interact with new and interesting people. Alastair and I are gonna get the party started Minions, join us!!!

Prostitutes are people too, and they have a lot of disposable income. The more you know...

FYI Daddy can't help you now!

Saw Babylon finally. Can't believe that someone read the script and actually greenlighted it, let alone spent 80 million on it

Since I referenced my local The Kitchen let me tell you what I ate the day I met Alastair. You can build your own grilled cheese sandwich there which they serve on sourdough bread. I had mine with sharp cheddar and garlic aioli, yummy to the max!!!

This photo of me with a shiner appeared in my Facebook memories today. I don't recall exactly what it was I did, what I do remember is I did it accidentally to myself. 

All I can think is that I must have really been in full on Raging Bull mode that day, or simply just clumsy which happens from time to time. Whichever it was I need to remind myself not to mess with me! No more self inflicted shiners damn it!!!
