Please sir, my Young Lad, it is Strapping.

Something has gone awry here BUT I believe I have followed instructions correctly

rosencrantz and guildenstern are dead to their conservative families but running a lovely antique shop in vermont

difficulty scheduling the follow-up session is also true to its inspirations

GREG DAVIES: seems like a kind of a shit task. Everyone just seems like they're going home normally. ALEX HORNE: well before you say that let's have a look at how Odysseus did. cut to panel of AJAX, MENELAUS, AGAMEMNON, and DIOMEDES who are all staring at ODYSSEUS with his head in his hands

After having seen STAR WARS 500 times as a kid, I remember having my mind blown learning that the entire "the death star is about to blow up the rebel base as its being attacked" beat of the ending was invented in the editing room using outtakes and ADR. variety.com/2026/film/ne...

I am begging you for the millionth time to understand, no one is pretending to like a band you don't like.

Hot off the presses, Lowe Valu has brought Imzadi Poppin’ to new heights! youtu.be/Y2qZbTpEL2s #friendsofdesoto #startrek #greatestgen

Pope Leo quoting Tolkien in his encyclical on AI seems like a pointed reference for the tech oligarchs who have appropriated LOTR for their own ends.

YOU’RE LISTENING TO SISYPHUS FM, THE HOME OF NON-STOP ROCK

What is the whole odyssey if not a penelope cruise

Diamonds are Forever may be Connery’s last Bond (officially), but instead it should be remembered for the criminally underrated henchmen Mr Wint and Mr Kidd. @belownirvana.bsky.social and I discuss on this week’s Shaken Not Stirred. cinemadual.com/2026/05/15/s...

Far too few people know about @joncinemadual.bsky.social’s Domestikwom. From the outset, he’s used experimentation & creative storytelling to push post-black metal in compelling directions. This title track video I made for him is just a small taste of the breadth & depth of Domestikwom’s sounds.

It's Friday. You should be listening to this album, PART TWO: philipkdiscs.bandcamp.com/album/the-en... 5gan-x7jb 8kfv-j59w 2na7-k3y4 da6a-y4nm 6bkc-vzau kd3q-ggfp nqv9-37jn mgbk-cv9e bkxu-xygu 5nqa-vrnq

A class at my kids’ school put up little statements about the good they want to do in the world and I was over the moon about this one - then I learned they meant to say “teach people in jail” which is also good!

A new documentary follows #uwinnipeg students and others who participated in a 2023 commemorative train journey. Now available on YouTube, the documentary celebrates the 100th anniversary of the Russlaender Mennonite immigration. news.uwinnipeg.ca/new-document...

I got exactly one (1) response on my costume at yesterday’s comic con and that’s enough for me.

Settle a bet for me. Is a guy who puts on a striped shirt and a red beret and white face paint and gloves, and then puts a hat out in a public plaza, and then quietly beats the shit out of anyone who approaches him called an antipersonnel mime?

from Paul’s Blart, I stab at thee

While reanimating Tolkien’s corpse to get his feedback on the Hunt For Gollum films could prove to be impractical, fortunately Tolkien was generous enough to provide his feedback in the text itself.

There should be a Canadian Heritage Minute for LEXX

My wife and I have decided that we don't want to have kids. We're going to tell them tonight at supper.

The Cinema Dual series on the Bond franchise continues with Goldfinger. Read @belownirvana.bsky.social and I’s thoughts here. cinemadual.com/2026/03/15/s...

Got this from the library on the suggestion of @robzacny.bsky.social on the latest @morecivilized.bsky.social . Psyched to dig in but damn this is a brick. I feel like I should be casting spells from this.

Onibaba (1964)

I’m going to be annoying as hell about this, because it’s such a fun project & we all need some joy & levity in our lives right now. Get you a mini boombox with weird, experimental music on it for your nightstand, your desk, your bookcase… Collect action figures? Get one for them to jam out to.

Okay y’all, here we go. I launched the preorder for this early, since #BandcampFriday gets nuts. The next Philip K. Discs compilation is coming out in April on mini boomboxes. Preorders will be open until the end of a March and then they’ll be closed forever. If you want one, don’t sleep on it.

An enthusiastic and well earned “hell yeah”
