My favourite ways of saying “your zipper is undone” from five other languages…

5. Your post office is open (Hindi)
4. The fairground is open (Danish)
3. The window to society is open (Japanese)
2. The Gate of Heavenly Peace is open (Chinese)
1. The pharmacy is open, and the doctor asleep (Spanish)

2 episodes in to #Adolescence on Netflix and it's a belter of a series so far - great performances all round.

"It's a rat turd!" "It's a cay-perrrr!"

Watching Rick Stein's Cornwall and hearing #BoardsofCanada on the soundtrack caused quite the double-take this morning.

So my first viewing of this was aged 50 😄 But I do have a childhood memory of watching Alien on a little B&W TV under the bed covers so my parents wouldn't hear!

Just watched Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978) for the first time - loved it! (Plus it's given me extra inspiration for my WIP) #filmsky #scriptsky

Babylon 5 as a topic on #CelebrityMastermind you say? <Insert Spaced GIF>

Started my feature WIP properly yesterday and got through nine pages that, in my mind at least, aren't too shite. Another five so far today - got enough in my treatment that I could get around half way through by the end of this week *fingers crossed* #scriptsky

Interviewer: So, David, since Baywatch and Knight Rider you don’t seem to have aged! What’s your secret?
David: I take a lot of ice-cold baths.
Interviewer: Wim Hof?
David: No, I plan them quite far in advance.

I'm transferring a load of my #writing notes into Obsidian, and now I've found a couple of ideas I want to do ahead of the idea I'm working on now, which had itself already usurped another idea I shelved and so I think it'll be 2028 before I get anything finished.

It also means that you can spell Mastodon wrong across three platforms at the same time 🙄

Btw if you have any combo of Bluesky, Mastadon and/or Threads, there is a very neat app called OpenVibe which creates a combined timeline so that you can keep track more easily.

Bluesky adds 700,000 new members as users flee X after the US election Social media platform has become a ‘refuge’ from the far-right activism on X, experts say, after Elon Musk teamed up with Donald Trump

Late to the party with #TheBearFX but we've just watched the last two episodes of series 1 and WOW

Seeing Spaced as a #Mastermind subject is great, but then comes the pressure of trying not to get a terrible score whilst playing along.

Hello to any new (or old) followers on here - I'm moving away from the 'other place' as quickly as I possibly can👟
