I know.. it's not for me, but I am getting more addicted to Love Island UK each year. And is it me, or is Yasmin a Stepford Wife?? She's expressionless, and her delivery of flirty lines just seems like a bad AI talking. It's like Mortitia Adamms' in her 20's. ##loveIslanduk #troubleinparadise

The Rani, I knew it #doctorwho

Pleasure's all mine

Theatre Royal is a wonderful, sometimes overlooked band. It's time people looked over at them. Listen below

It's always been true. It's not the tools. It's the talent.

...eat a poor excuse for a Scottish breakfast. Someone short-changed you there, I would expect there be at least 2 of everything... but I'm an overweight old bloke who survives on carbs and grease!

You could go back to the first name for it, The Gulf of St Michael. Take any ownership away, or maybe the native Americans had a name for it...

Repost & like, if you stand with President Zelensky!

that one image could inspire a bunch of novels

Yep. That'll do it.

Watched The Invasion of the Bodysnatchers from 1978. The one with Donald Sutherland and a young Jeff Goldblum. Surprisingly good, solid acting, light on exposition so you get to learn by watching, not listening. Amazing VFX for the time. Solid 8/10.

Classical to Classic Decades. What a great buy. 'Sick squid' for all that! Billy bargain!

The cinematography was great, specifically the alien feeling wasteland vistas set to confuse us. The sfx were impressive for the time. The script works well, but the message of man's inhumanity being his downfall felt a little preachy. Still, seeing Lady Liberty at the end.. still gave me chills!

I've started going back and watching old films recently, in an attempt to break me from the constant buzzing in my head from modern cinema. This week, I watched the original Planet of The Apes from 1968. I remember watching this on TV as a child. Against modern cinema, it still holds up. 8/10.

Distancing is the best way, as eradication is nigh on impossible. Like with Indiana Jones. I will forever try to force the belief that only three films were made. The first 3, in case you weren't sure. And only 2 Jaws films. Again, the first 2.

Yes, the utter dog mess that was Highlander2 taking a dump on all the mythos and solid work of the first one. In my mind, there can be only one. The first one.

amazing, thanks!

Does anyone here own a #playdate ? I can't afford one right now, but i really want one. I haven't had a proper handheld console since buying a DS decades ago. Is this worth it? #gaming #handheld

I am on Mastodon, too.

These guys are amazing musically and Lottie is hilarious at their gigs. Especially when she was on painkillers when she bust her leg. If you like orchestral electronic rock with killer beats and floor stomping crowd pleasers, you will love them. I do. #music #thebest #hybridband

You were BOTH great in The Lexington! When you decide to come up north, this is deffo the right venue for you guys. Compact and rowdy. Like a Village Hall with a great bar. #music #fun @theatreroyal.bsky.social @milltownbrothers.bsky.social

Afternoon.
As Meta and Twitter finally seem to have lost the plot, I'll not be posting there anymore. Yep, freedom of speech in that world leaves a lot to be desired. So goodbye Threads, it was short but fun. Bluesky here we come. #3D #blender #rural #walking #animation #vfx #scifi #ambient
