Irish-Canadian Twitter exile finally moving to an alternative platform and starting again from scratch: sci-fi writing, fantasy, horror, books, science … cats. If you see this, let me know what you're reading.

Still working through this slim volume (5 stories and an essay). I have to say, Amis is hitting me as a LOT of style over I'm-not-sure-how-much substance thus far. I'll plough on. Also, FYI, the stories are not "about" nuclear war, but it's a deep, running theme.

If you think it gets dark early now, know that there are 38 more days till the solstice, on all of which it will get dark earlier than it does today, then 38 MORE days following the solstice until we get to a day where it gets dark around the same time as today. That’s 76 darker days than today.

Watched this tonight: William Friedkin's Sorcerer from 1977 (with Roy Scheider, two years after Jaws and a year after Marathon Man). It wasn't a success at the time but has come to be recognized by some as a masterpiece. I thought it was great.

Since we're all talking about it, here's my #BondJamesBond hot take.
They should remake the films in the order they were written, as period pieces, very faithful to the books. Tone down the misogyny and racism but otherwise include all of it, especially the food/clothes stuff. Then we can...

Born 11 November 1925, actress June Whitfield. Amongst many other roles, she starred opposite Terry Scott in "Terry & June", a BBC sitcom that ran from 1974 to 1979. It regularly pulled in more than 10 million viewers. June died, aged 92 in 2018. She would've been 100 today! #JuneWhitfield
