πŸ’― he walked past the door twice and this is their solution
Also, it's somehow gold printed on A3 paper. That's quite hard to do. So someone has TRIED to make it as bad as possible, instead of getting gold vinyl cut and applied. Unless they tried, it wouldn't stick, so they stuck it to paper. Magical

One of the best things about my job is the "person who chooses the vibe of the derig". Experience and knowledge applied to the space and crew to keep everyone moving. People with power tools and crowbars all singing Kate Bush then Kendrick then Bruce whilst breaking down a build is a joyous thing

The general trick is carry a piece of paper, a harassed look, and dismiss anyone in a huffy way if they question you. I've done this enough times outside my remits and permissions that, honestly, a moral lapse and boredom could be enough for me to walk out of a museum with anything in my hands

I've never been bothered to look this nonsense up: that Richmond swimming baths closed down their slides because of razorblades shoved through them. I've even known older kids who claimed to know the culprit.
Whereas I do actually know who set fire to the school gym. Everyone had that wrong

I have not watched YET but I have an extremely strong suspicion I was correct on something and that this image is James being devious AF

I feel reading comprehension is the larger issue in play
Or deliberate weaponised incompetence to not understand it

Thank you for saying Sneakers

Everyone on their A game in this, but he's just wonderful. And some INCREDIBLE delivery choices in there that are timed to perfection and still make me laugh

I'm sorry to say, this poster is true for one sector. If they think they are in some way creative, it's:
A DALÍ POSTER
Always
I've gone so far as to tell straight single male friends to lose it, branch out. Sadly, this usually leads to sci-fi themed travel posters.

Yes.
In my head it's the same as when you accidentally use a Sharpie on a whiteboard, and use whiteboard markers to remove it

It's a freebie

Um, I thought it was a reference to Alien Covenant, when Walter corrects David after he misattributed Tennyson to Byron

I appreciate this is dorky of me, but I won't be surprised if he gets corrected by one of the Lost Boys after they "upload" a data chewable with sci-fi on it

Yeah, the women's stuff for this is awful. "Model is 6'7" and wearing S" is not giving me bust, waist and hips, because that model is built like the spindly aliens in Close Encounters, and I'm...not.

Also appealing for per-garment sizes, not brand-generic, because they never match cross garments

Ugh, Empire, check on IMDB just once

Can't help but feel crushing disappointment in Black, who made some great stuff in this vein, going from 'light cancel hiring a CSA offender', to 'replace a great casting choice with...'

We have been denied a Nice Guys sequel & Black's choices increasingly suck

Unflavoured - BAD BAD
Artificially sweetened - oh, turns out I have a sensitivity to artificial sweeteners that later in the makes socialising impossible! 😬 Therefore, BAD
Sweetened with actual sweet stuff - just do some extra steps or whatever, FINE

Life is too short to start the day miserable!

My kid and I have been listening to the Uncanny podcast together after discussing how she doesn't like scary things. Turns out, she just needed to unpick that fear a bit.

She is now writing a horror romance set in a kids camp.

My work is done here

Every once in a while I deliberately get inconsolably lost in the vague area of Marylebone High Street with all the small curved lanes that cross over each other, until I find a coffee shop that wasn't there before, step out, and suddenly find myself in a completely different part of town. It's fun.

Got a huge bouquet of these coreopsis recently (can't find a picture of that but trust me, stunning). I will be growing these for next year, because they look like little ringed planets dancing in midair. Happiness on springs

She needs to get ahead of it. His misogyny won't let him see his wife as having agency, esp not in the bedroom.
So, hop to a lawyer, list out ALL the fantasies he listed, underline those they did, and shove that in the divorce papers under incompatibility and unreasonable behaviour.

I'm CRYING. I know nothing about PokΓ©mon in any way, but the interaction here... I'm old and cynical and it's bursting with the hope and humanity we need

This is the world we need, everywhere. Just nice people letting other people be themselves and being nice

I don't think that's the same but I applaud your bravery in saying it.
Relieved my last relationship ended: aside from the coercive control / abuse stuff, him drinking two bottles of wine a night or driving on five pints? I look back on that and think "liver failure and car crash future avoided"
