It’s like the Bat Signal. You call and he comes to restore order.

Paging @dorianlynskey.bsky.social. !Urgent call for @dorianlynskey.bsky.social !

Contra-indicated, even in cases of extreme hunger. A half a horse should do.

I’d suggest cutting straight to swallowing a horse. But adverse effects have been reported.

Of course.

One for World Book Day....

I was once stroked on the cheek by Gloria Swanson. As she did so she said “Why, you’re just a baby!” I was 25 at the time.

It’s a great show. Have fun.

Still thinking about how beautifully through-composed David Byrne's concerts are. Like a chain of performance art installations that make you want to get up and dance. Going to rewatch American Utopia...

David Byrne in a blue suit, against an orangey-red background.

David Byrne…burning down the house at the Apollo tonight. What a concert.

Cynthia Ozick?

The New Iran War First impressions

Useful analysis of what experts are calling "the shitshow"... open.substack.com/pub/markurba...

THERAPIST: and this one?

ME: that looks like you kissing my mum.

THERAPIST: what about this one?

ME: also kissing my mum. and groping her a little. why are you showing me these?

THERAPIST: I thought you'd be happy for us.

I was absolutely sure this must be a spoof. But it isn’t

Air crew safe. But no word, obviously, about the poor bastards the planes actually fell on.

It's good...and touching.

Farce projection...

Covers of Lottie Moggach’s Mrs Pearcey and Margaret Busby’s Part of the Story, on a studio table.

‘Orrible murder on Start the Week this morning — and other compelling stories. Join Lottie Moggach, Margaret Busby, Sarah Dillon and me just after 9.00 on Radio Four.

Also: the best on screen role for a gas cooker since Wallace and Gromit’s Grand Day Out.

Really enjoyed Dennis Kelly’s Waiting For The Out. Drama ABOUT something, instead of yet another synthetic Netflix mystery. And a great performance from Josh Finan.

Sup chat this is Slouching Towards Bethlehem with your boy The Rough Beast, and it looks like today’s stream could be a big one, as some of you might’ve already seen there are rumors going around social media that the hour has come round at last, so we’re gonna get right into it

There is always a tweet.

Waking to light rain, gentle breeze and hurricane force lying.

Watched How To Get To Heaven From Belfast. OK, if you like that kind of thing. But wouldn’t it be so much better if they turned the volume down from 11? If you don’t oversell I’d be likelier to buy.

You'd think the oven would have told it you're not to be messed with...

It looks as if it’s been forced to get out of the shower by an Evri delivery.

Everybody knows it’s in a crater on the moon. James Cameron just CGI’d that thing in the Atlantic.

Was it designed by Anish Kapoor?
