Getting up in Derby for the Quatermass event.

I can’t work out why the defunct publishers didn’t just crowdfund the debt owed to the authors from their mates, by working like dogs to persuade generous people to help out, you know like the authors did in the first place to raise the money that was stolen.

Apparently Shirley said something to Marilyn about a man you'd had who was very good - I must borrow him.

A gold ring inscribed with the image of a fish, a shepherd’s crook & an palm branch.

The Fish. The Fish is one of the most ancient of all charms, and was probably introduced into Europe from Alexandria. Originally the Fish was the symbol of the Egyptian goddess who controlled the rising of thé Nile, which brought prosperity and abundance to Egypt. The Palm branch has been used from earliest times as an emblem of victory. The Crook was the symbol of the Good Shepherd, who watches over the welfare of his sheep. The Ring (early Christian) was worn for success, protection, prosperity, riches, and happiness.

"Take the blue eyes of my mother,
naked as the sea,
waiting to pull you down where there is no air, no God.
Bury them."

Now we’re “more than five years removed” from the pandemic entirely? So it started and ended in 2020? No delta wave? No omicron? No massive 2024 summer wave? Come on, it had to have at least lasted longer than your compassion for other humans.

Ay me, detested!

Nah, they're not tasty. They haven't marinaded in the old knowledge.

Modest proposal: Eat them

Folks, I encountered students who had never heard of Gulliver's Travels or Jonathan Swift today.

A photo of Edinburgh castle at light, lit red. Trees can just be seen on the steep slop below it.

Took a photo of Edinburgh castle last night and ended up with William Hope Hodgson's House on the Borderland.

I had faith in you.
