From a Glasgow Times article today. Why would you blank out the word "bag"? Am I completely misunderstanding the sweary here?

Absolute Batman

And in 40 years still not seeing a huge difference in support for kids who are bullied. www.kcl.ac.uk/archive/news...

The Rani #DoctorWho

Visiting mog introduced himself while I was out in the garden earlier. Desperately wants to play with Reuben.

Tonight's film, which I haven't seen in many a year!

Listening to Dragonfire (again) and the whole "time storm" thing is so handwavy. How does Ace know exactly what to call it? Why isn't Mel more interested in how a 16 year old from 20th Century London got here? Why isn't Kane interested in the secrets of time travel he got could from Ace?

New wee counselling blog out this morning with a shameless reference to everyone's favourite family xmas movie! 🐧 ☂️ 🎪

There I was innocently watching Murder She Wrote, and suddenly there was James from Twin Peaks!

A few days ago I finally managed to read the Hellraiser/Nightbreed crossover, 'Jihad', from the early '90s and it's pretty damn good. Hell's Order vs the Chaos of the 'Breed. It's so refreshing to read a HR book that doesn't need a magical reset button to save everyone too.

'The Man in the Velvet Mask' is fair giving me the ick then. It all feels so.. horrible. Dodo, of all people, being manipulated by a sinister cult intent on corrupting her? Why is the Doctor feeling his regeneration coming on before we've even had The War Machines? (He was fine in The Smugglers!)

We are aware of the BBC’s investigation into individuals allegedly helping people fabricate LGBTQI+ asylum claims. Read the full statement on our website:

Very disappointing scaremongering from the BBC. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Fully expecting it to get completely ignored but thought I might as well ask the Labour candidate who bothered sending me a leaflet some questions...

Me unplugging all the AI junk clogging up Zoom. Urgh.

The greatest comics panel ever drawn.

Removed everything from the tv stand, screwed it all in again more tightly so it doesn't wobble when the cats jump on it, put everything back, reconnected everything all over again, fixed a problem cable, zip tied things back neatly and now I feel like I need a prize or something. Blimey.

Billionaires shouldn't exist.

Middle aged alert! Replaced the busted knackery polycarbonate in my cold-frame and have given it a whole new lease of life. Appropriately while listening to Mindwarp from Trial of a Timelord. :P

Fake what now???!! :D

"If you were in charge of Star Trek what would you do?" I'd swiftly un-cancel Starfleet Academy, I'd put a permanent moratorium on Section 31,, and I'd be planning a post-Burn series set on a spaceship exploring the new frontier. This would be a traditional adventure-of-the-week ensemble show.

Tonight's film. A first time watch...

The problem with putting Ash in anything is that it just becomes a comedy, but having finally managed to read both Freddy vs Jason vs Ash series today the survivors of the Elm Street & F13th films all teaming up is still kind of thrilling.

I remember being so excited and scared by the warrior robot when I was a kid. What a shame we didn't get more of this actor in Who.

Latest wee counselling blog out this morning, with bonus muppets!

Killing a few minutes before a client session with Bonnie audio of the Target novelisation of Dragonfire. The whole freezer-centre thing is so.. odd. Why would something on an Ice planet look as boring as our local Iceland? Wouldn't tourism be more lucrative? Is the whole place a freezer-centre??

So sick of the worst American government in history taking up so much of our time and energy. It's like watching a screaming kid running around a restaurant while everyone else is trying to have a meal. Hoping the mid-terms will mean some kind of positive change and we can get on with our lives.

"What you're talking about in privy terms is the very latest in front wall fresh air orifices combined with a wide capacity [time vortex] below." I'm not really convinced Hartnell had a working toilet. Only McGann would be able to do that other trick with his handwavy temporal grace thing.

Tonight's film. A first time watch and it's like a fake movie that the demented version of Joan Crawford made during Mommie Dearest. (And she's being very unkind to Soolin from Blakes 7).

Bullies don't impress me. Not even ones who threaten to murder entire civilisations. Pathetic.

the swag in this video is unreal

Watching a random episode of Crossroads. Oh that's her off Resurrection of the Daleks. Also the motel reception area looks weirdly like it belongs on Terror of the Vervoids...

In a world of holodecks, every day would be the Muppet show. Although I kind of think they're impossible to replicate artificially because they have too much heart. :)

Oh Disney Plus, you want to charge me the same amount as the ad-free tier last year but with adverts this time? 30 quid more to skip that? I don't think so.

Shoutout to everyone having to work today....

It was bright and sunny an hour ago.

Woke up absolutely convinced that The Orange One was no longer on the planet...

My first book, WHERE'S DAVID LYNCH, is out in Australia, the UK and Ireland, and the US. I'm so excited to see it on display at my local - Ramona Books in Northcote.

Plugging on with this but it's a bit of an odd one and Hartnell and Dodo are a strange choice for a story involving corrupt cults and depravities in an alternate history Paris...

From a Guardian article today, this new drone looks like something from Advance Wars.

Note to self - don't do a body scan exercise if you are having problems with heartburn this morning. You don't hear about spontaneous human combustion much these days....

Parkey Posey is always good value and she's great fun in this episode of Tales of the Walking Dead. Agent: "Do you know that woman?" PP: "Not very well. I mean she's my receptionist but she's CLEARLY LOST HER SH*T!!" :D

Latest wee counselling blog out this morning. Have a wee read & share if you like. ❤️

Now we're on to The Lazarus Experiment, which I remember finding deadly dull and unappealing back in the day and haven't watched since broadcast. (What is it with RTD writing horrible mums?)

LOLLOLLOL! www.bbc.com/news/live/cd...

My friend and I made this version in 1995. youtu.be/jgayFxmxZT0?...

All my kitty prints so far.

We're on to Spider-Man and the human Daleks. Another one I'm fairly sure I haven't watched since broadcast...

Snuggletime is the best part of the day.

Gridlock is tonight's Who. I don't think I've seen this since broadcast and... ooofft.... it's a hell of a switch from the sublime Caves of Androzani. None of it makes a lick of sense.
