Minidress Monday 🖤

Thank you to my Instagram algorithm for assuming what I want advertised to me is a perfume called German Angst, with a naked gnome theme.

📽️ Second movie of the day - now watching PHANTOM THREAD (Paul Thomas Anderson, 2017). I have also just discovered the delicate art of movie-watching from the bath. I have dried marigolds in here (I am technically a tea now.) ✨🫧

📽️ Currently watching VIDEOTEKA (Luka Bursać, 2024), a Serbian horror/thriller anthology. Not sure what to expect, but the set-up is similar to the V/H/S movies (which have some decent and some awful entries, btw.)

I forgot to take a pic of the main course (tequila-induced amnesia) but here's a very delicious margarita and a dulce de leche cheesecake ✨

I am being taken out for Mexican food (one of my favourite cuisines) tonight. Very excited, will post a pic of the food (and potentially many cocktails too) later ♥️

Red French manicure 🍒 oh la la

Corporate life is not for me. Going to sincerely look at different options.

📽️ Tonight's watch is LET THE RIGHT ONE IN (Tomas Alfredson, 2008), a snowy horror/drama from Sweden to match the vibes outside. @xshike.bsky.social is watching with me—neither of us had logged a movie this year yet. Excited!🍿🖤

Me btw

I love the way the snow looks but I'm in dire need of a beach or pool day 🌊✨

this one is called goose horse

Please

Snowy campus ft. hot cheese croissant ft. one of my eyes being very sun-lit 👁️

Absolutely impossible to find jobs in my field (writing/communications/editing/events) where AI isn't mentioned in the description at least once. And I'm mainly looking in creative sectors, which makes that even sadder tbh.

Please enjoy the equal parts blessed and cursed snowman my sister made

📽️ Finally had a look at my #Letterboxd summary for 2025. My most watched themes and genres are exactly my top film interests 🖤✨ letterboxd.com/Telathiel/ye...

📽️ First and last watch of 2025! They're coincidentally also both on my Favourite Four on #Letterboxd 🖤

Visited some friends today and this church there was lit up from the inside. It's no gothic architecture, but for a baroque building I really liked this one. 🖤 (Bisexual lighting strikes again.)

Prepping this year's journal 🖤 I use it for lists, media & goal trackers, story outlines, recipes, but mainly as an excuse to use my insane collection of stickers and washi tape.

📽️ Haven't posted a #LastFourWatched for #LetterboxdFriday in a while. Thinking of doing more themed weeks again this year ✨

You've got to see this great title sequence for the 1958 Swedish proto-Bava thriller MANNEQUIN IN RED.

Late night and I've made Jigae ramen with Korean BBQ Gyoza to have while I watch Culinary Class Wars. Peak viewing pairing 🍜🥟

I missed KWAIDAN’s birthday but happy belated birthday 💅🏼

I only just looked at my Steam Replay and you can see when the weather was nice this year based on my playtime

In my very realistic house search, I've found Mettingham Castle in Suffolk for sale. It has a fully equipped and gorgeous house, but also includes these ruins. And omg, the kitchen ✨🖤

Oh no I've apparently missed my local Shrek Daniel's party

done! (mostly, will probably do some minor edits and weathering when I get back to my laptop haha) #sinners

📽️ Tonight I'm watching CITIZEN KANE (Orson Welles, 1941). I've had Christmas market jenever (a traditional type of liquor here) and now I'm at home warming up under blankets, and I have chocolate covered strawberries. It's a whole mood. Perfect time for a classic. ♥️

Dubious beverage time

Ending 2026 on a demonic note

I've had to double my old dog's cortisone dose, which has made him intermittently incontinent, which means I am now on diaper duty for a big ass dog. My life is really sexy right now.

📽️ Just watched GOOD BOY (Ben Leonberg, 2025), which was interesting, but should've been a short film imo. I think I'm now caught up with most big 2025 horror releases. I appreciate any recommendations or movies I've missed this year! (boxd.it/cfiPF if you want to check which ones I've seen. 👀)

Got the French/Belgian export version of Terry's chocolate orange. Now we're christmassing.

The Fallout Ghoul Log is excellent to fall asleep to btw (as demonstrated here by Ollie)

Merry Christmas 🖤🎄

Godzilla Earth, Megalon, Manda, and Lil Godzilla Jr are hyped for the holidays!

Love getting gifts with thoughtful messages from friends 🖤

I have this skill for cinnamon rolls btw. Once in a generation cinnamon roll sniffer.

📽️ Catching up on a few horror films on my list before the end of the year, and just finished BEST WISHES TO ALL (Yûta Shimotsu, 2025). Gory and unsettling the whole way through. I can't type what I want review-wise without spoiling, but I'd recommend it if you enjoy some uncomfortable body horror.

I've gone Christmas market mode

Merry Christmas already from my cat who's been on the 'nip

So, just to confirm, the BBC can’t keep Robin Ince on the air because his trans allyship brings the organisation into disrepute, but they can keep David Walliams, who performed Nazi salutes at the recording of this very show, on the air despite him being predatory towards women. Cool. Very normal.

At the lingerie store today a guy held up the bra he was considering against me (from a distance) because he 'needed to imagine it on someone', with a gross smile. I know it's not a violent offense but I was already having a crap day and I'm just done with the world. Men like that can go die.

My cats are cinephiles too btw
