Exact same is a tautology. Cease immediately.

Giving this another push, would appreciate the signal boost if you are so inclined!

You give me entirely too much credit because I’m only ever giving an opinion. You are the hardworking, creative champion. I’m so pleased for you.

Is there a feature brewing in your head?

I’m so terribly sorry to hear that, I hadn’t even considered it being an issue in an academic setting. How awful to have something you have tangibly made become so ephemeral.

Alt-text. Historically abusive Dylan Frost is protected by people insulting anyone who doesn’t like his abusive behaviour. Or, welcome to the internet.

I can’t hit heart because my reaction is β€œI remember empathy and this makes me sad/angry.”

I think that’s fairly normal. I know I’m abnormal (this is a slow year for me).

I mean, it’s Sydney. If you know the city it’s incredibly familiar.

I kinda chortled when I saw the train. It’s an β€œAustralians only” moment.

Movie Review: β€˜The Sparrow In the Chimney’ is Dark, Disturbing, and Vicious | InSession Film THE SPARROW IN THE CHIMNEY is a dark, disturbing, and vicious portrait of a family that needs to reset to survive.

Ramon ZΓΌrcher’s The Sparrow in the Chimney is a forensically observed and impeccably acted psychological drama of generational unhappiness… a dark, disturbing, and vicious portrait of a family that needs to reset to survive.

I review for @insessionfilm.bsky.social

I hope you enjoy TOGETHER. Keep an eye out for a cameo from a VLine train!

VLine train.

The train (not the specific one in the movie).

Couple goals get icky and inescapable in Michael Shanks’ TOGETHER starring Dave Franco, Alison Brie and a recognisable Vic Rail Train.
(Something for the locals).

Thanks Movie Jawn.

As he is a conservative lord and that’s also the basis of Downton Abbey β€” absolutely.

As an Australian I have the right to take the piss out of the Negus. Especially when we had Jana.

David @dmbjourno.bsky.social is a delight to work with and I learned an overwhelming amount about Steve Martin.

ALL OF ME is hilarious.

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Tupelo

Sure, Nick looks like a deranged muppet here but Barry Adamson makes up for it (and that’s his bass line despite drum playing in the clip).

That Nick Cave & Andrew Dominik AI Elvis TUPELO clip is not only a betrayal of art, it’s also plainly fucking dreadful and looks like it was made by a stoned 13 year old.

Embarrassing stuff by guys used to embarrassing stuff.

God help Tupelo.

To be fair, they’re both dead. So easy mistake I guess.
