Getting Brian May to collaborate on the soundtrack is going to earn them a lot of brownie points but I’m a bit ratty they didn’t do this poster in a hand-painted Drew Struzan/Tom Jung/Renate Casero style.

yeah, I don’t think Starmer is great, wish there was an alternative -

The secret £5 million payment to Farage by an overseas billionaire is the most astonishing example of political corruption. Don’t let up.

OO LA LA MAYOR

there are many things I love about my job and a few things that I don’t and high on the list in the second category is pitching

Takeshi Miike’s LOVE, ACTUALLY

Charleroi, Belgium. Years back, I was so fed up with transfers via Charleroi airport that the next time there was a sizable stopover, I insisted to my then girlfriend that we should go visit the town of Charleroi itself. Reader, we were so let-down that we welcomed returning to the airport.

This is a great look at the mess #Eurovision has got itself into by allowing Israel to participate this year.

Was wrecking my head trying to remember the name of this song, but finally it all clicked together. Good start for the week, I hope: youtu.be/zpJK6TQi-70?...

ME: (watching DEADWOOD) Al Swearengen, eh? He really is a “SWEAR engine”, am I right, huh huh!? WIFE: I’m taking the kids. My lawyer will contact you later in the week.

This is why co-pilots exist.

I posted this to the discord group and @pmcginley.bsky.social replied: “Moloko is Russian for Milkshake Duck,” and now I can’t get that out of my head 😆

[watching a peer gradually turn orange and start coming up with fizzy, overly sacharine takes] Of course, he’s come down with the fantavirus.

10 years on from Brexit, millions of Britains are finally having their chance to lower the bar even further.

RIP Tony Stella Social media has many faults but I loved that I could regularly see work by brilliant artists like Tony regularly light up my feed. Here’s my favourite poster of his & it’s one of my favourite movies.

Look, there’s nothing stopping me hating the player AND hating the game. They’re not mutually exclusive hates.

It's that day when I link to my series reviewing everything George Lucas produced BESIDES Star Wars. MORE AMERICAN GRAFFITI, KAGEMUSHA, TWICE UPON A TIME, MISHIMA, LATINO, LABYRINTH, CAPTAIN EO, POWAQQATSI, TUCKER, LAND BEFORE TIME, RADIOLAND MURDERS, RED TAILS, STRANGE MAGIC... I did ALL of them.

BRAIN: Jamie, have you considered thinking through the first stupid thing that runs through your head before posting it? JAMIE: haha no, no

I also hunker down for fear of the Ass Ass Nation.

Now re-listening, been too long:

Slightly diminish a book. Some Guy Of Earthsea

Ah the top 1% of vaginas. The quim de la quim.

the Future Islands sound like a Disney villain who got coerced into going to karaoke and liked it so much that they never went back to taking over the lion pride or whatever

Happening now: Israeli settlers are now burning down several houses in the village of Jalud in the West Bank in an attempt to burn Palestinian families alive. Several families are trapped inside their homes, they are pleading for help.

A KIRA... … THE KIRA

my dude, this is not the flex you think it is

Getting a lot of questions about my t-shirt that have already been answered by my t-shirt.

When radioactivity was discovered, there was a rush to market for all sorts of radioactive consumer goods. There were water jugs made out of uranium glass, for example. I think about that a lot these days whenever I see AI products being marketed to consumers.

I used Moleskines for many years but recent got a wonderful Midori notebook (great paper for writing AND drawing/painting on) and I don’t think I’ll be going back to Moleskines anytime soon.

How do you run a story like that and not show the selfie in question? www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...

Re-read the first 60 pages of a spec script in progress and… I actually thought they were pretty good! THIS IS NOT A COMMON OCCURENCE

Coachella is trying to wipe all of the footage of The Strokes protest set so I’m gonna post it here. The last images on the screen made me cry.

This can’t be true. … can it?

Listen up fives, a ten is speaking - *is promptly beaten up by a gang of prime numbers

not now, highly-contagious bacterial infection diphtheria

So apparently, THE DAMNED was a massive hit on Latin HBO, outperforming SINNERS and ONE BATTLE AFTER THE OTHER, amongst others. www.espinof.com/hbo/nueva-pe...

I’ll never forget watching The Wicker Man with my outer Hebridean mum. “I just don’t know where there got all that wicker from”

Okay I’ll bite, who is this Claude Mythos guy? Some kind of Greek beer mascot?
