Too Much Coffee Dan

Molotov cocktail badges for all

I think the Girl Guides should go to war
They have the skills and merit badges to prove it
Parachute them into JKR’s compound

the guides have made it abundantly clear that they do not want to have to do this, won't be excluding trans women from volunteering, etc but that they simply cannot defend themselves in a legal challenge against unlimited resources

Every dollar JK Rowling makes from Harry Potter is going into bankrolling an extortion racket issuing legal threats to organizations across the UK to purge themselves of trans people or face ruinous lawfare.

Advent calendar that releases a bunch of spores each day until finally on Christmas Eve you take on the form of The Great Christmas Fungus

Wow. Read this thread

It's only too late if you're dead, and you are not dead.

I've talked about it before but the AIDS Quilt and the project of memorializing queer stories through tangible physical objects is fundamental to how I want to make art and the methods and mediums I choose. This is such a loving interactive digital archive, and I am so sad and glad for it.

Imagining a Bletchley Park scientist who thought they could sneak landmines into a personal enemy’s front yard until a young Pvt named Columbo comes along…

Also social anxiety

Once again cancelling evening plans because the thought of travelling to and from in the cold and dark feels extra oppressive

My Monday began with a nosebleed

I knew Tom Stoppard made essential contributions to the script for Terry Gilliam’s Brazil, I didn’t know he did the same for Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. R.I.P. and thanks for those scripts. Hear he was a JKR defender tho so no thanks for that.

RIP Tom Stoppard.

Hardly his most important work, but I remember having my mind blown by learning he had rewritten most of the dialogue on INDIANA JONES AND THE LAST CRUSADE, one of the funniest movies ever made

Long story short, finally starting the last Book of Dust

Book chatter on the TL
Yep, I only read one book at a time and choice of book depends on what the week ahead looks like. Working in office or going on a trip? I’ll pick a paperback, not too chunky. Chunky paperbacks and hardbacks? Wait until a week I’ll be mostly home.

Left the novel I'm in the middle of at a friend's house... Which is a problem because today is a "snuggle up in bed early with a hot water bottle and a good book" evening. So I'm doing an extremely risky thing and... Starting to read... Another book... Despite being halfway through one already.

Children’s books in particular should be weird and challenging and inappropriate. All the best ones are.

People will just walk up and stand really close to you
