🎃Damien S. Pumpkins🎃 Any Questions?

My windows show the neighbours houses. They're more or less the same every day. Sometimes different cars are parked outside.

Not sure that's a decent substitute for the pictures on the walls.

Left some peanuts out for Mr Squirrel. He seems to like dry roasted.

Yeah, I know what you mean. But he became one of my faves *because* of the scarcity of on-screen appearances and the wonderful Big Finish stuff that fleshed him out. Who knows what TV could've done to him

Screenshot of Tumblr: henryticart The Doctor and The Master implies a third, less prestigious renegade timelord named The Bachelor desertleviathan An immortal who regenerates into new bodies but maintains the same core identity and continuity of memories even if there are marked changes in personality, you say? Weirdly fixated on England, you say? The Bachelor, you say? May I propose a theory: (photos of the actors playing James Bond)

Reminds me of this theory...

McGann not being picked up for a full series was the right choice - we'd have got one, maybe two seasons of increasingly Americanised Who that would tarnish the reputation for too long, and we'd never have got the 2005 revival.

And McGann's audios wouldn't be as strong due to TV baggage.

Butter, not bitter.

Stupid autocucumber

If we're talking super low effort, you can't beat baked potatoes, skin so crispy you need a steak knife, with oodles of real bitter and baked beans.

With a little bit more effort, stick a gammon joint in the oven for the same 2hrs as the spuds and carve that up for dinner AND tomorrow's sandwiches

(oh boy...)

It makes no sense that anti-mutant bigots are confined to X-books. We see anti-trans bigots target women they don't deem "feminine enough", so there would be anti-mutant types refusing to believe Daredevil/Spidey etc aren't mutants, and heroes having to deal with that on a regular basis

I guess?

Or just assumes that there's an "English A level" that's equivalent to the level/complication of study of A level maths/chemistry/history/whatever without checking exactly what it entails

I did A Level English language.

We studied phonetics, accents and dialects, the science of naming, child language development, things like the language of power or advertising or subcultures.

Not convinced that's going to fix the problems the HS thinks it will.

Makes me think of the chap I know on FB who, when faced with one of those "you can only choose one sandwich/celebrity/album/whatever"-style posts, would always reply with "I can choose as many as I like" or "I don't have to choose at all"

little yorkie named Rupert sitting in a big pinky beige-colored blanket, leaning up against a dark brown leather couch. there is a potted plant behind him, he's wearing a tiny terracotta sweater. he has a very William H Macy-in-Fargo expression on his face, like he's nervously smiling.

when a dark secret from your past threatens to destroy the new idyllic life you've created for yourself

Omg this may be the greatest idea I've ever heard.

Gareth "Not allowed to write Doctor Who anymore due to being an awful transphobe" Roberts writing for the Spectator now? I'm SHOCKED

“What’s the charge? Eating a seal?”

Um. There’s a woman presenting this too.

I feel you. I was putting a letter to a customer in its windowed envelope before spotting "Hampshite" in their address

Have you heard our October #podcast?

We chat with Mojo Jones of the Scarlet Vixens about the great fun they have putting on a variety of cabaret shows all year round - and the fun they have for Halloween in particular.

Plus, our other highlights for this month

Actually got a dressing room tonight lads. And rider wine!

This explains SO much...

Sweet Effing Christmas...

Oh god I've not done any of these... What's the deadline?

a screen capture of text that reads "anyway. Jared Leto looks like he tries to pick up women in hospital parking lots and I truly hope he never changes that because it's such helpful visual language to see a man build his entire look around ratchet dracula"

in that case have my thoughts on the new Tron Movie before I forget them, insofar as it's a thing worth thinking about

Unsolicited Dirk pic

I had a housemate who made a mushroom sauce for his fish using red wine because I refused to let him open a bottle of my white wine just for that. Stank the house out and he pretended to like it to save face when really it was turning his stomach.

But yours makes way more sense as a substitution.

But before that, on 1 November 2025, we have Reading's own Beatles tribute, the Magical Mystery Four - part faithful rendition, part loving interpretation, they play hits and faves from across the Fab Four's back catalogue.

That's at the Butler

Indeed. And simply "Worcester" sauce which means it's not the proper Lea & Perrins recipe. FOR SHAME.

Wait there was Worcestershire Sauce flavoured Twiglets?

The lovely lot at @fourbearsbooks.bsky.social are being extra lovely again this Christmas
