when they sent Burgess to Washington they told him a) not to be openly Communist, b) not to cause any homosexual scandals, and c) not to make a fuss about 'race relations' to which he replied 'So you're telling me I shouldn't seduce Paul Robeson?'

Blahlea iacta est.

The lake was particularly beautiful tonight. We shivered and listened to the nesting coots.

I suspect the next few years in the US will see a right-wing embrace of voting by mail, and the reason will be to allow the head of the family to fill in his wife’s and daughters’ votes.

“… call it an apparent wildfowl which some have described as water-adjacent.”

Thoughts are with Blitzen at this difficult time

Ugh, Piero della Francesca sliding into my DMs again with his unsolicited diptychs.

Until recently, I talked all the time about how weird it was to be the top Google search result for 'ketamine president'. Turns out it's much, much, much weirder to *no longer* be the top Google search result for 'ketamine president'.

Oh yes, Homer’s famous “Tes Thdpssssps.” 👍🏻

Friend just confirmed via text she's putting her cat down and Apple Intelligence just suggested I respond "haha I feel you."

OK, Irish people. What’s that big yellow thing in the sky? Is that going to be on all night?

It’s the 101st anniversary of the birth of Lee Marvin, which can only mean one thing: yes, it’s time to hear the story of him going home on a roof rack, utterly arseholed

John Travolta is 71. An extraordinary actor who is quite literally unrecognisable in some roles as seen here.

can't decide if they are knowingly trying to reduce US influence abroad or if they're just so averse to academic language that they can't read between the lines of the program titles. are they confused that they don't see programs titled like "spies" & "bribes" & so on lol

Something in the woods: horror A deer with a stick crown: folk horror A stick crown and fangs: creature horror It's disembowelling you: gore horror You grow fur and horns: body horror You're the deer now: possession horror You make these tiny mortals worship you, the horned god: cosmic horror

I couldn’t recommend this more highly, if you have the shelf space. Just today I picked up three classic musicals with about 18 hours of bonus material, for 25 cents. It’s film school in a jar.

The Pence incident inspired my favourite ever tweet.

Came out of Bring Them Down with a friend tonight and agreed we would both buy a ticket right now to Christopher Andrews’ second film. Can’t wait to see wheee he goes from here.

If you told Micheál Martin his children were hungry and needed their dinner, he'd provide a tax break to Shanahan's on the Green
