Pinned
Just remembered you can pin posts, so let's revive my twitter tradition of pinning a thread of all the movies I watch in a year, so I can look back on them later.

First up:
Just watched Civil War (2024)

Like other Garland films, it's well directed, beautifully shot, expertly edited, gripping, yet strangely not really about much.

Not a criticism, per se. I really enjoy his stuff, but I think some of this films critics were expecting something else.

The gap between what we want to be and what we are forced to be is the core of gender politics and a lot of queer people don't want to think about the latter bit.
but tbh if you'll allow me to editorialize a bit here, i see many more ppl ignoring the "what you are perceived as" piece than they should like, i'm sorry, but that part is Really Important to material/lived experience

Lads, lads, lads!

Totally forgot to tell you, I finally saw one of them Roman era dodecahedrons at the weekend.

I'm in the "knitting fingers for gloves" camp on this mystery object, especially as the "clipped coins" theory can't explain the corner knobs.

Hahaha! Er. Someone has used AI to make analogue clocks with the live time.

Analogue clocks are really hard.

AI: spectacularly confident. Can be both subtly and spectacularly wrong. This is a lovely illustration of that.

Are they doing the Simple Sabotage Field Manual as a performance art piece?

You've got to admire their commitment to the bit.

Listen up, nerds!

I want to go to Thought Bubble this weekend and buy as much random shite as you possibly can. Get all your Xmas shopping done this weekend.

To all you exhibiting nerds, make sure you stay hydrated, especially at the party. You're not as old as you used to be. 💜

This may be the first photograph of the mysterious Okka. In Japan it is known as a yōkai, with only a few old scrolls alluding to it.
The reason for its elusiveness is the deadly poison it sprays around it. Those who have been close enough to see it, such as this photographer, have quickly perished.

I cry at a bunch of shows, but this is the only one where I'll be SOBBING at the end of both Acts.

Dear Americans on here blaming China for the state of America,

You're in the wrong place for that. Turn around. Go back.

You're looking for the library. This ain't it.

I rediscovered Nyman's soundtrack to The Piano yesterday. Not listened to that in decades.

Takes me right back to when I first moved to London and every damn keyboard player I knew butchering the main theme 💜
