it’s never been the cleanest of harbours (save for a brief period during the pandemic, when dolphins could be seen there) but that’s pretty awful.

iPhone memories are just negging me now.

Me when I hear graphic designers, translators, writers, musicians, photographers are losing their livelihoods vs me when I hear Mr Beast is feeling threatened.

Kids are into Luke Pearson’s HILDA at the moment, so this week’s napkin doodles have been mostly HILDA-related.

Some phrase about “money” “more” and “sense” is floating about my head.

‘Dragonfly’, ‘Mr Burton’ among winners at Dinard Festival Of British & Irish Film 2025 Daisy-May Hudson's 'Lollipop' landed the talent of tomorrow prize.

Surprised and delighted to hear that THE DAMNED won’t the Special Jury Prize at the Dinard Festival of British and Irish Film over the weekend! www.screendaily.com/news/dragonf...

There is nothing as satisfying as a surgically precise (metaphorical) knife between the ribs.

It’s usually at the discretion of the producers/broadcaster. Usually only an episode or two in advance, though.

a metro poster for Gloria Estefan in Madrid. She is reclining back, one hand on her temple. her expression clearly indicating a woman who is worried about her Autumnal heating bill.

tfw you’re Gloria Estefan and you can’t remember whether or not you left the immersion on.

It is *literally* how television programs have worked since broadcasting began!

That said, I feel like they’re trying to skate around the fact that this is a Irish national broadcaster adaptation of a beloved Irish novel with an Irish cast and crew and the (Irish) reviewer FUCKING HATED IT.

Irish Independent review of THE WALSH SISTERS: “We must start by saying that it is unfair to review a television series on the basis of its first episode. But we must also make it clear that RTE is releasing The Walsh Sisters one precious episode at a time, drop by drop, like a serialised novel by Charles Dickens…”

I have no strong opinions on this show one way or the other, but I was amused by this critic’s opening salvo: “RTÉ is releasing this EPISODICALLY? Like, one week after the other?! What next, are we to gather in the square to listen to the town cryer, translate Egyptian hieroglyphics, etc”

And I saw a beast rising up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his horns ten crowns, and on his heads a blasphemous name and I guess it was pretty cool, but I started checking my watch and the beast was like, “Whoa pal, please, I put a lot of effort into this,” and I was like I

Nothing more pathetic than someone trying to cash in on the latest pop culture trend.

Our news should be banned from reporting on US news unless it directly involves us or affects us.

Very sorry to hear that, Donald.

In more positive posts, myself and my podcast wife @willcollins.bsky.social had a good time talking about our favourite Robert Redford films for the next episode of Screen, Play out on Monday. Podcasting with him keeps me sane. I hope you'll give it a listen. linktr.ee/screenplaypod

Nothing but respect for MY phallic frenzy.

Don’t you mean, you’re getting *FRANTIC*?!

where did you watch it/what format?

Unwinder @unwinder.bsky.social Generative Al has helped me to understand why, in Star Wars, the droids seem to have personalities but are generally bad at whatever they're supposed to be programmed to do, and everyone is tired of their shit and constantly tells them to shut up May 10, 2025 at 1:21 AM

It feels frankly insane to scroll social media and see people talking about inane shit in between the worst people in the world succeeding in destroying our collective decency. I know the solution is to unplug. But any time I glimpse online it’s all so dystopian. And the fact we all think this —

I’m a big fan of the antifascist subtext in *checks notes* SOLVENT GREEN.

I’d love to go back in time to his Mahon tribunal prep and watch everyone in Bertie’s team agreeing that claiming you did not have a bank account WHILE YOU WERE FINANCE MINISTER was a perfectly cromulent excuse and would never be picked up on by anyone.
