BJ is the very very best of people: if you are on IG this is so easy to do and will make a concrete, material improvement on one of the best entertainment critics out there ❤️
Hey, do 3,419 of you want to follow me on IG? Apparently, I'll get more opportunities (Or something?) if I crack the magical 10k, and that's the only platform where I haven't.

lmao this is so pathetic and embarrassing.

Bookish friends! My wife set up a folksy shop for her crochet. Just starting to stock it, testing the water with these lovely rose bookmarks (I've suggested some gothy black ones as well). Treat yourself or someone you love! #booksky #crochet #https://beta-ep.folksy.com/shops/totallyhookedbylili

It's probably a sad thing to note that I seem to need constant background (light-hearted podcasts and TV shows) any time I'm doing mundane tasks, just to stop anxious thoughts/overthinking. Sometimes not sure if I'm blocking unhelpful thoughts patterns or sticking my head in the sand.

I think I know why so many people think "everyone is a little autistic"

It's because autistic needs are human needs.

Because our needs are not a different category of need. They're the same as everyone else's...

Cooked breakfast plus a latte for less than a tenner. Complete Deadwood (minus the movie) on blu for £11. So far so good, Sunday :-) *latte arriving in a tall glass and chef looking miserable as they delivered my plate all somehow adding to the good atmosphere

Yep on the bad days. Which sometimes turn into bad weeks.

Out for a walk
Listening to leaves fall
Like gentle rain
Brushing the ones
That still linger and cling

All these wins in the US *and* a new ep of The Projection Booth Podcast on Walter Hill's masterful movie THE DRIVER. Hell of a start to the day! :-)

Last night I went to the Puca Festival in Trim, Ireland.

It's all fun and games until someone unleashes a giant demonic hare.

Oh my gods, *YES*! 🤩
It's been hard keeping this quiet, so glad it's finally anounced!

CR director Alex Philippe and I share an obsession with how materiality changes a film, and this is our Exhibit A

Australian vhs and Slovakian betamax are the MVPs here: the redubbing on the latter is genuinely something to behold!
