And so much more!Testo di Federica CaslottiCon Federica Caslotti, Margherita Buccilli e Rachele NutiMontaggio: Rachele Nuti

A century later, the first day at a small-town high school erupts into full-on possession: shadows walk without bodies, students cling to ceilings, phones glitch, Latin growls through the halls, and a serpent of sulfur chooses its host.Chelsea Rizzoli just wants to survive the bell. Ethan Crow is gripping a Winchester, and something ancient is steering his hands. Before the doors open to parents and buses, a century-old debt must be paid… and Hell intends to collect.Expect demon outbreak, mob-cursed revenge, and final-girl stakes—a collision of 1920s crime lore and modern back-to-school terror.Academia Demonia by David O'Hanlon

This week on Grumpy Old Geeks: FOLLOW UP kicks off with Manus madness, a $2 million ticket to Trump's crypto cash-grab, and Elon's Boring Company worming its way into an $8 billion Amtrak boondoggle. Meanwhile, CryptoPunks gets handed off to a nonprofit like an expired Groupon—proof the NFT hype cycle ends with a 501(c)(3) and a shrug.IN THE NEWS, Microsoft trims another 3% of its workforce while a former Metaverse engineer delivers DoorDash from a trailer—living proof that “the future of work” is just working for the apps. Klarna quietly admits AI sucks at customer service and hires back actual people, just as OpenAI's reasoning models hit the brakes. The Pope wants to exorcise AI, Elon's backfiring Copyright Office coup leaves him empty-handed, and YouTube starts banning AI-faked trailers that made Screen Culture money off Marvel lies. Jamie Lee Curtis goes full Final Girl on Zuckerberg, and Tesla drama ramps up: robotaxis under investigation, employees revolting, and one poor dealership manager gets canned for telling the truth about ol' Musky. Oh, and scientists say the universe might die sooner than expected—cool cool cool.In MEDIA CANDY, Murderbot arrives May 16, NIN launches the Future Ruins Festival, and Star Trek and Star Wars both dig up classic soundtracks for some retro feels. Jessica Jones returns in Daredevil: Born Again, Fallout gets Seasons 2 and 3, and even Nobody 2 is back for more murder-dad mayhem. In THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE, Mr. Bittner shares two truly bleak customer service horror stories and gets bamboozled by a flower shop on Brian's birthday (happy birthday, Brian!). Also: animatronic Mickey Mouse serves popcorn, Walt Disney's ghost haunts the parks, Muppets get a pre-show for their 70th, and yes, there's a guide to toilet-training your cat. Because sure, why not. Closing shout-out?
