I don't drive, so I have a free parking space at my house, which I let a neighbour use. Before Easter he asked if he could leave his car there for three weeks as he went on a holiday. It's now been six weeks and he hasn't yet returned.

Could it be because none of these are real jobs?

Widow’s Bay = Eerie, Indiana for grown ups and that’s the highest praise I can give it

This was a strangely unsatisfying weekend.

My movie Explorers is out in a brand-new, mega-deluxe 4K Blu-ray from Vinegar Syndrome! Newly restored in 4K from the original camera negative with both theatrical and home video versions included. Trailer: m.youtube.com/watch?v=kz33... #explorers #joedante #vinegarsyndrome #4k

Browsers have always known these things. Nothing surprising here.

And here we are: my classic Lego Pirates Sabre Island redesign in all its physical glory! I've made a few small tweaks, but overall this was a blast to build 🥳🥳🥳 #lego #afol #legocommunity #legosets #legomocs #legobricks #legoparts #rebrickable #bricklink #classiclego #legopirates #pirates

No boundaries, no limits. My artbook will be titled UNBOUND. 12+ years of maps - Coming September 2026 🧭

Nice to come home on a rainy day and put on dry socks.

Some heavy rain last night and this morning caused some issues at work. The upstairs office was flooded. That's gonna be expensive.

I assume after Stephen Colbert's show ends he'll be moving to New Zealand.

I see no lies here

He may be the reason why AI art looks so cheesy. He flooded the world with his chintzy shite and now it's 50% of what AI trains on.

"Sholomon, King Sholomon."

Ooh, like the villain in Superman III.

May the 4th Be With You! #StarWarsDay

Supposedly it's May The Fourth (etc) but no Star Wars deals where I'm looking, so I think they may have given up on Australia as a source of rabid reactions to silly tie-ins.

Beautiful afternoon at Taiaroa Head

Now that I think about it, clapping and applause is kind of a weird convention.

I wish this Lego moustache piece came in white or grey. For some reason it's only available in black. Even alt-bricks haven't offered any other colours.

Doing a lot at work. What’s a lot? This is a lot. I’m painting an ocelot.

Hannah seems far too smiley for portending this chaos.

The underbite bearing scruff from #MortimerAndWhitehouseGoneFishing has scampered off to the bend in the stream of doggy heaven. #RIPTed

We never had them at any of my schools, but at least we got the book club catalogue. And you'd fill out that little form on the back page, and drop it and a couple of bucks worth of change in a envelope with your name and class on it. And the library lady would send it off and a month later, BOOKS!

I watched the first episode of #WidowsBay last night. It was amazing to see how useless Matthew Rhys's character was. At every opportunity he managed to mess something up, but it felt authentic. He was just a natural loser.

Imagine all those historic battles that happened in various fields and the farmer comes out of his hut. He'd be like "what the fuck? I just planted a year's worth of wheat in that field."

They live in your roof cavity. It's not so great.

This shot from the #Mandalorian trailer reminds me of an old Ralph McQuarrie concept painting of a proto-tauntaun.

I'm not entirely sure how this happened but it's the last day of April. I seem to remember it was still February last week.

When nominative determinism is distasteful and crass.

All the best places and great photos! www.lonelyplanet.com/articles/wee...

As I have never watched Pulp Fiction or any other Tarantino film, I mostly think of Uma Thurman as Venus in Gilliam's Baron Munchausen.

The minotaur mask is almost done!

It's been a couple of decades since they* started predicting that eating insects was going to be in our future. I think they have to admit that this just isn't going to happen. *I don't know who 'they' were as I automatically switched off at the mere suggestion.

To be fair, Urban played the role so well from having studied Kelly's portrayal deeply. Which goes to prove the old adage: Deforestation leads to Urbanization

An unexpected visitor.

A glimpse of some formation flying overhead as the planes return from an ANZAC service.

Looking up Labyrinth references again, I spotted something new. We know Sarah's adventure is inspired by the play she performs, toys, books, and the art she has in her room. Well, she also has a poster from the musical Cats, which is a reference to her mother (an actress), but also to the Fireys!

Here's an underrated pleasure: needing to buy something immediately, and it just happens to be heavily discounted in a sale.

Don't like these side scrolling image galleries. Makes a side window on my phone open.

Not in list. Boo!

A leap of progress.

New series of #InteriorDesignMasters. They all seem like Art Students this time round.

Now who should their Companions be?

Weird “glitch in the Matrix”/optical illusion, looking across the Lake towards Toronto, this evening.

Five video games that I recall as being a big deal at the time but nobody really talks about anymore: 5. Serious Sam 4. Beat Saber 3. Wing Commander 2. The Dig 1. Quake
