Happy 40th anniversary to Studio Ghibli (founded on June 15, 1985).

Father’s Day swag. Cards handmade by my two arty offspring. Also look, that’s Ulysses 31 on DVD too! 🤩

Father’s Day and I’m gardening. I found a future character name for Cthulhu By Gaslight. 😃

Also, why does my blueberry have a serial number?! I think it was manufactured locally. Finest quality. Superior workmanship. And bearing the maker's serial number… more blueberry than blueberry?

The grocery store Nettó is trying to find this thief, now caught on camera, who has repeatedly stolen bags of dry, salted fish, which per kilo is the most expensive product they stock.

Was looking for a photo and found this from when @nerissact.bsky.social was working on costumes for a show, but to me it looked like the entire council of Elders had been disintegrated by stygian magicks 😆

Absolutely loving the current series of Taskmaster. Jason and Stevie and the spoons and balls task had us all on the edge of our seats and crying laughing too. 🤣

I love that John Carpenter kept the runtime of all his films under two hours. Quite a few are closer to 1 hour 30 or 1 hour 40ish. Means they’re easy to fit in to the day. 😃

I bought the new Star Wars Complete Locations book as it has locations from Andor, Rogue One and The Mandalorian in it. But l wish they would release them as volumes not new editions with more maps if that makes sense? Look at how cool the first edition is in comparison.

Post a time travel movie that is not Back to the Future.

And finally... We’ve just heard that a juggernaut of onions has shed its load all over the M1. Motorists are advised to find a hard shoulder to cry on.

Running a Call of Cthulhu 7e one-shot set in Roman Britain for my Tuesday night group quickly devolved into Carry On Cleo meets Dad's Army. "INFAMY INFAMY! They've all got it in for me!" "DON'T TELL HIM YOUR NAME, QUINTUS!" "We're DOOMED! DOOMED!"

Andor Characters and Their Counterparts in ‘Allo ‘Allo 1. Dedra Meero and Private Helga Geerhart.

Tell me about a fictional character death you still haven't gotten over using only pictures.

Research for my Rogue One / Andor campaign continues. The Rogue One Visual Guide is brilliant, and this book Dawn of Rebellion is another great visual resource, for those of you plotting Star Wars games. ( @fenrisgames.com )

Inspired by art of Rogue One... Once a remote ancient temple, Spire is now a dusty and wind-bitten settlement—part sanctuary, part smuggler’s haven. At its heart rises a tapering tower of weathered stone, ringed with wooden balconies and prayer flags. It predates the Empire by centuries.

No mow May has turned into no mow June and I am liking my back garden turning into a mini meadow. Hanging out the washing this morning and there are bees and butterflies everywhere. ☺️
