TIL Stephen King used to do so much cocaine that he had to shove gauze in his nose to keep blood from leaking onto his typewriter. (detoxtorehab.com)

I read some of his tweets from 2022 ish, he seems pro Ukraine, anti book ban, and anti Elon. What's happened more recently? I don't have an account so can't effectively search

He's been giving his watch recommendations about some pretty terrible stuff. He told people to watch that under Paris movie and also the latest Indiana Jones film for example. That's probably what they're talking about.

Stephen King kinda has bad tastes in TV. He always has.

I havent seen the tweets, but Under Paris would be fitting considering the Olympics in the Seine, and all.

Not sure there's an excuse for an Indy flim, though.
