Given the director I expected a lot more overall, I think.

The movie never felt like it really got going, and the big finale setpiece was more of a damp squib... then it was over.

So, I feel much the same: it had a fair sense of place, but Lee Pace was criminally underused, the fights were lacklustre, and the main character was a nothingy-bloke whose main character trait was quickly forgotten in the malaise.

For me, it was using fluticasone propionate, applied to the inner ear on a cotton bud. In the UK you can get that as a nasal spray called Pirinase. It's only a day's relief but worth it for me. Fingers crossed it helps you!

I've watched a few episodes of Alias now, and so far it has a lot in common with Poor Things. No sex, but the same theme of vile men who desire, and desire to control, our heroine. But, Alias doesn't seem to know that's it's own main theme...

Will it become self-aware before I get bored? Who knows?

A gentle Friday night spent watching Cadfael, when - hold on a sec-

IS THAT DANNY FUCKING DYER?

And indeed it was Danny Fucking Dyer.

(I am terrible with names but mad good with faces.)

Bleh. I really don't like wallpapering.

No video this week as I have to do a whole bunch of emergency decorating in the bathroom to get it usable again.

I really don't like wallpapering 😑

I need a couple of days for my full thoughts to bloom on these things, but - having *just* watched it - the new Running Man never got up to speed for me.

Y u posting pics of predator, brah? 😆

Eeeeh, episode three not so much.

The latest Predator just looks like Spiny Norman to me.

For those wondering, yes,

it has a huge section where the bit goes on,

to the audience's discomfort,

for far too long,

and you wish you could hammer the "I get it" button,

but you can't,

which is kind of the point.

It wouldn't really be a Stewart Lee joint if it didn't, would it?

Big same. 😃

I'm just straight-up unfollowing folks who do ANYTHING with prompty AI, even the 'for a laugh' or 'just to see' types.

It's a moral issue for me, like wearing a mask during the pandemic. Consider people other than yourself, for pity's sake.

The first two episodes of Paradise season two were great.

Don't you open that TRAP DOOR!

'Cause there's something DOWN there!

(Da-daaah daah dah!)

If this is the Flavourtown consular ship, where is the creamy ambassador?

(Also, it's the anniversary of my Dad's death tomorrow, and it amuses me how much he would've absolutely fucking hated it.

Self-actualisation: 10 out of 10, highly recommend.)

Went to see Stewart Lee's latest show tonight, which was delightful.

We booked the tickets last year when Mar was in hospital, and I can think of no better way to celebrate being alive.

I'm waiting for a parcel with bated breath, which is late because Royal Mail, and it's also blowing a gale outside so I am jumping up every few minutes going IS IT HERE? IS THAT IT NOW????

Voice notes are absolutely indispensable for me. It's common for me to listen back over them, be reminded of a song I recorded a snippet of, and then add to it or finish it wholesale on that next listen.

Those melodies would be lost forever if I hadn't la-da-daahed them in at the time.

Quite enjoyed Ballerina: Bag of Hammers, From The World of John Wick.

Admittedly, I was feeding Pavé rainbow feathers throughout, which was quite a tonal trip.

Brill, thanks! Worked like a charm. Great game, folks!

Sent. Didn't realise that was there! Good luck with the dig 🪏

Fingers crossed this doesn't affect the endgame 🤞🏻

Well, shit. My TR-49 playthrough has rather come to a stop because I've encountered a bug... It's accepted the same title twice somehow, using up the code, and now I can't assign that code to the correct title...which was the last one left to assign 😭

*Voice of Scrooge's nephew*

Well, come now friends, we've smashed the patriarchy, what shall we do next?

Shindig's in this awesome bundle for a great cause! Go get it, and stand on the right side of history!

This year's superbowl was such a weird but wonderful game. I feel bad for the QB on the team that didn't triumph, but the winning team's defense were GREAT, and how they used that to triumph was really something to see.
