I’ve never seen this publicity shot of ‘2010’ before but it fucking rules! Aesthetically, the film always owed more to ALIEN than its parent film and its fun (for me) to see it as a mid point in the art direction evolution between those two outings.

Vultures of my estate take heed…

(*Has headache for 12 hours) ME: ‘I HAVE A TUMOUR’ (*head ache continues for another 12 hours but moves from the back to the front) ME: ‘BRAIN WORM!!!!!!!!’

“…are you rich?’ “No. No I’m ‘comfortable’” “Well thats no good, I can’t rob from the ‘comfortable’ and give to the ‘moderately impoverished’!”

The really sad part is, its actually a lovely looking trailer and the kids seem nice. Bleeeargh.

Happy Tolkien Reading Day (Apparently this is a thing)

My nearly three year old is constipated and we’ve just finished a half hour long stay on the potty. In terms of it being something we both had to go through, it was the closest thing I’ve experienced to an exorcism.

Last nights picture quiz

I fear that my taste for adventure may finally have begun to dull because I have just decided AGAINST attempting to board a train with half a lemon meringue pie in a bin-bag.

Both my children are, now, out of the house for most the day - all through the week - and here’s me going to work like an idiot.

I have finally found the energy I wish to bring to the workplace

I am willing to admit that I have a mild, recreational strength obsession with this man because I truly believe he is a kind of monster - in its classic, literary sense. His hubris, entitlement and bitterness are a dire warning to us all.

Well Tolkein, you bored me to sleep for 18 chapters but you FINALLY put out and gave me a raven haired, magical elf-princess and her best mate; a giant wolfhound that hands Sauron the entirety of his shadowy ass. That Amazon’s ‘The Rings of Power’ failed to give us this, cements their failure

One hour, and you were rooting for people. Everyone said “give it time”. It didn’t need time. It just needed to be FUCKING MADE. MAKE COMEDY.

I wouldn’t say that my Papier-mâché replacement lampshade was a COMPLETE success…but I do, now, have a lampshade

Diana is so good in this sketch I have forgotten what the sketch is about #SNLUK

Running is my favourite genre of dance

I accidentally broke the fancy smoked glass lamp shade we had above the dining table. We cant afford to replace it so…yeah!

I am not built for consecutive, hour- long zoom meetings

People tend to sane wash the insanity because believing that evil may be real and have power over us, is a very scary realization.

INCOMING POST FOR NOBOBDY: Just randomly saw a bit of ‘Homocide: Life on the Streets’ for the first time in my entire life. …Love how someone took the decision that the intro theme should sound like ‘Shadow of the Beast’ on the Amiga 500+.

I have decided to invest in my own happiness. Goodnight.

This is the only sensible answer - to which i would only add that I would use around one percent of it to fully fund about 20 low budget sci-fi/horror movies with a bunch of first time directors. Im probably done so i’d like to buy myself and oeuvre

This image is from a Carrie Fisher photoshoot with her friend, celebrity photographer Lynn Goldsmith, in 1981. Carrie posed for many photographers over the years but it was Lynn Goldsmith who really brought her to life.

Whose online bio is such a phrasal slam-dunk for you that you consistently think it must be part of common parlance? For me, you’d have to go far to beat @unfortunatalie.bsky.social

New meds have arrived.

Can’t help but think that anyone who gets a glamour shoot in Vanity Fair but, seemingly, has to ‘demand’ to be taken seriously has already failed the ‘people we should take seriously’ test. This isn’t the bright young things profile they want. It’s a Kelloggs variety pack of laughable fuck heads.

Been watching some movie trailers. Are we trying to out hyper-realism the AI? Why is everything lit like ‘Candy floss magic hour’?

Last night’s picture quiz

If Angine De Poitrine didn’t exist then it would be necessary to invent them.

In the main, I think the toilets at the major London stations are of a decent quality and objectively better than they used to be. That said, I hate that we’re not allowed to pump our own soap anymore and, instead have to beg a robot to weakly jizz in our hand.

Its a good thing I didn’t watch the Oscars last night. I’d had QUITE a few drinks and if id had to deal with this, I would have had to call some kind of hotline…

Haven’t been able to look At Oscar stuff until now. Loads of good people but it’ll come as no surprise that I’m delighted my girl finally got her flowers

“ [something probably great, quite clearly expressed]…if that makes sense!??” - A Millennial asking permission to have an idea

Still enjoying my slow march through ‘The Silmarilion’. However… Tolkein’s often cited goal was to provide an internally consistent Anglo-Saxon mythos. It’s so elegantly wrought (take a bow Christopher) but I can’t help but feel like it all lionises something deeply grubby in the British psyche.

If you could be given CAST IRON assurances that it wouldn’t diminish the love and respect they have for you, what’s a movie you would LOVE to screen for a roomful of mates - if you had the courage? Mines this, with a bullet:

Really hoping the Ides of March does it's thing this year.

Thinking about Madeline Kahn tonight and how, in a film DRENCHED in God-tier line reads, she takes it with this:

No notes

Bored? Why not get rid of an old loyalty card in your wallet by planting an 'inciting incident' somewhere in the wild

She didn’t realise Siri was still listening when she stopped, mid shopping list, to heckle our youngest and his attempts to peel the eyes off his monster collage…

No offence, but I would rather have fully qualified furniture. This coffee table is clearly VERY nervous and requires a pep talk from his handler.

Steve Wang threatening me with a good time over on Instagram..

Was anyone else sad to discover that - in matters of genealogy - the term ‘twice removed’ didn’t mean ‘forcibly kicked out of the family for being a twat’?

That being said, this shit right here (as read by Andy Serkis) could put an Adderalled Tasmanian Devil to sleep…

Creatively, I’m a vegetable. Parenting and a collapsing house has made doing anything that isn’t well/promptly paid unjustifiable and it’s getting harder and harder. A friend advised me to keep sharing the last thing I made that I was proud of, so I’m doing that. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/i...

I choose to believe that whoever anonymously texted into @bbc6music.bsky.social to request ‘The Staunton Lick’ by Lemon Jelly was a friend of mine and was actively trying to reach out to me, across time and space(d), at the perfect moment

Marooned, pre-montage, four line exchange from unmade Jethro Tull rock-biopic. Free to a good home:

If you cut me in half you would see this PRECISE sentiment running all way through me like a stick of rock. 🤘🏻🎸🤙🏻
