The is he though? Meme

Watching one of those cheap American monster hunter shows on DMAX. I’m so used to British cynicism it’s alarming how unquestioning it is. “That no land animal lives for more than 300 years would suggest it’s supernatural”

They look like Dick Tracy villains

David Sumpter as closer to how he is now. An older man with intense eyes

David Sumpter but about 50 years ago.

I watched The Phoenican Scheme last night and noticed David Sumpter is in it and watching The Sea Devils now I see a young David Sumpter is in it.

That’s it! I used to know.

Tiny 1960s car in the frost

Last repost. I somehow forgot the little car one today until Daniel posted it. A long ago ex sent to me as a postcard.

Ta ta Martin Parr.

An exhibition of his early photos at The Barbican was the site of one of my first dates with Andrea. I was struck by his ghostly black and whites most of all, which are not representative of the majority of his work, but struck a deeper chord in me.

Anna Maxwell Martin looks back: ‘I was bullied a little bit, but it didn’t affect me because I was a happy weirdo’ The actor on being an introverted extrovert, performing as a pearly queen, and becoming a single mother when her husband died

I was a fan of Anna Maxwell Martin for ages but when Motherland came along I was a bit “I saw her first, you fickle fly-by-nights” www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

I had exactly the same thought process. I just couldn’t accept that was actually Michael Crawford.

You should be able to get rich being silly online instead of being evil online, that would solve a lot of problems

Last repost. Too good not to repost despite the “Who made this? 🤣” which I normally consider to be one down from a war crime.

Buster from the tv show ‘Arrested Development’ holding an arm full of plushies while he looks at his mother Lucille, saying, “these are my awards, mother, from FIFA.“

Who has made this 🤣

Oh my god. That’s all my everythings.

I think we've reached peak @swansonian.bsky.social interest.

The Pointing Sister. A nun in blue, pointing.

I'll wait a million more hours and then that's it. A small lonely figure at a lamppost

Cave guide. A cave guide with a candle on their head

And now we'll abseil down the other side. Some tiny mountaineers on mountain that is actually a monster

You have five days to live!...until and I stop posting prints before Christmas. Then you can carry on living. marswasrubbish.etsy.comthe

My print Perky Wicker Man. It's the wicker man but happy.

I understand it's the 52nd birthday of The Wicker Man.

A a cartoony drawing of a cat with the word CAT written behind it.

Someone asked if I have prints of my CAT drawing. I can print any picture of mine you like, please just ask if you can't see it in my shop. I'd actually forgotten about this one.

A very tanned and wrinkled woman with elaborate earrings and massive sunglasses gets even more tan in this famous photo by Martin Parr.

Probably going to spend the afternoon looking at Martin Parr photos now.

Gourock Lido, Scotland by Martin Parr, 2004

British photographer Martin Parr who sadly passed away yesterday

Very sad to hear Martin Parr has died. I felt honoured to welcome him into my home just a couple of months ago. A great artist and a true gent.

People in front of the Leaning Tower of Pisa pretending to hold the building up.

Sad to hear about Martin Parr. One of my absolute favourites and the photographer who got me into photography. I don't know where to start with his work but I was very fond of his Small World book on tourists.

RIP Martin Parr. I worked with him once on a story about the NHS. I interviewed and he photographed Britain's busiest and least busy GP. I think he was brilliant and this is one of my favorites of his.

Cold dead eyes of a shark.

It's an odd way to describe a film. It's not pretending to be anything else.

It’s an odd thing to say. If it’s on in a cinema it’s cinema. Apart from that time I did jury service in an Odeon but you know what I mean.

“Might” doing an industrial haulage firm’s amount of lifting here.

I’m not a fan either.

A thing I grew to hate on film Twitter was that Tarantino-like if you don’t adore this shitty action movie you hate cinema.

Inverted film snobs can also do one.
