I was watching Sympathy for Lady Vengeance in the cinema, and the scene in the forest with the snow falling was so breathtakingly beautiful that I started weeping - mainly because I thought I’d never be able to make something that beautiful myself.

I am Kiki’s property. Elderly white foot for scale.

I love how my end of year stats pinpoint exactly when I couldn’t be arsed to use Letterboxd any more.

repost to give those 2 or 3 followers who always like your weird posts a little forehead kiss & a grilled cheese cut diagonally

Ooh hello, Xmas dinner soup.

Breaking news.

No cheating, repost with the most recent photo of your pet. Rosie mad at me, Kiki choosing to ignore warm spot.

“Hey! They’re lighting their arrows! ... Can they do that?”

Shrimp mode activated

Internet sleuths and/or British 70s kids - help put me out of my misery. I’ve been obsessed with a robot design that I believe was used to promote a snack. I’m sure it was for KP Outer Spacers, but image search is returning nothing. 1/2

Current mood: hungry.

Here for this.

Now it’s Xmas

Happy Hols, kids.

They got caught. They’re backing down. But this isn’t over. There needs to be a class action lawsuit. Instacart admitted it was using AI to charge different people different prices for the exact same items. Algorithmic price gouging. That scam could cost a family of four $1,200 more a year.

My Sherlock Holmes (Brett version) rewatches continue with The Musgrave Ritual, featuring Michael Culver this time. Really enjoying spotting saga-adjacent actors from these episodes.

The best part of making breakfast for supper is that you can have the leftovers for breakfast.

Lovely ‘in memorandum’ video from @tcmtv.bsky.social - beautifully put together. youtu.be/qF8_YcxZp6U?...

For once I’m interested in a Nolan flick.

Star Wars Celebration Chicago (2019) My own little Stardust. #RogueOne

her shield stops the quick strike, while the slow blade may pass

It’s the 9th anniversary of my favourite Star Wars film, which means it was 9 years ago today my wife and I drove through the worst blizzard ever with zero visibility to get to the opening night show.

I’m so happy when a new Tomb Raider is released, because we can finally start discussing female representation in video games.

My latest article at Black Gate is scientifically designed to infuriate.

Trump truly is a disgusting piece of shit and his own end can’t come fast enough. How much more are his supporters willing to tolerate? Don’t bother to answer that.

Heh

The utterly senseless tragedy of Rob and Michelle Reiner - heartbroken. What a body of work.

I’m a bit late for #caturday, but I’m having a rare, lazy weekend.

Working on the Megalania and reminding myself how to airbrush - next up, paint the flippin’ body. #sculpting

FINALLY! Greedo in his slippers.

Decorating!

Prime example of Larson giving it 110%. ‘flightless’

I had to follow up with a yogurt sample to get the taste out of my mouth.

We just went out to watch Wake Up Dead Man - loved it but didn’t LOVE it. This trilogy has been an interesting example of diminishing returns for me, but they are still amazing films. The cinematography though - holy heck.❤️

My daughter just told my son to spell ‘onomatopoeia’ and I told him to just sound it out and now they both hate me a little bit more.

Oops. #caturday

Started a rewatch (many decades later) of the Jeremy Brett Sherlock Holmes series, which kicks off with A Scandal in Bohemia. Supporting cast includes Dietrich from ‘Raiders’ and Bib Fortuna. This is going to be fun.

Last night I dreamt an entire movie - a follow up to Jungle Cruise with the same cast but based on The Odyssey. The filmmakers ran out of money, so many of the VFX had ‘Velocipastor’ style intertitles. Much of the dream was devoted to audience reactions (not favourable). Hoping for sequel tonight.

The Storyville Mosquito is astonishing - if you are in the Ottawa area (or surrounding ‘villes) go and see it. @kidkoala.bsky.social is a bloody genius.

Red Lobster never released a commercial with a jingle that went “Shrimply having a wonderful Fishmastime.” That’s why they went bankrupt.

@kidkoala.bsky.social Waiting just outside the auditorium and the atmosphere is, ahem, buzzing!

Went to bed with a headache. Woke up with a headache. Currently working with a headache. Boo to this particular Tuesday.
