With Bases introduced to Obsidian.md I'm steadily but surely cataloguing my library and maybe other collections later. Goodbye proprietary apps and websites! Sync lets me check my collection on the fly and it is pretty awesome and so far with no issues at all.

A very good documentary, heavily based on the book The KLF: Chaos, magic and the band who burned a million pounds by John Higgs. The book provides a personal commentary that the film, although quiet comprehensive, never manages to provide. #klf #filmsky
Who Killed the KLF? (2021)
Between 1988 and 1992, British Electronic duo The KLF had scored #1 records throughout the world and had become household names. Determined to ridicule the establishment, they battled The Beatles and ...

Just finished this unauthorised music biography, and it's the best thing I've read in a very long time. The story of The KLF via Carl Jung, Alan Moore, quantum physics, Dada, magic, chaos, Discordianism, punk, rave, Doctor Who, the number 23 and the godess/dwarf planet Eris. Wild and excellent book.

YouTube is great for when you want to watch an hour long video that could easily be an article you could read in less than five minutes.

The Substance is not subtle but it is substantial and surely subversionary and sublime. A definitive subjective success. Loved it!

Anderson is saved by Dahl's dry writing and excellent cast. It is somewhat fascinating, but I'm not convinced it needs to be filmed.

A modern soft horror classic. Excellent!

Documentary about extreme reality tv, before reality tv was even a real thing. Plus, a producer straight out of hell. Somehow, the end ties things together, but it still feels wrong and misguided, albeit interesting.

Just finished John Crowley's debut, The Deep. It was a little hard to get into, and the character names made things confusing, but it also made me realise how much formulaic sf/f I've been reading lately. Great book!

I actually really like Joker: Folie à Deux. I see negative reviews, and personally, I can't stand musicals, but it it is so baffling to me that the guy behind the Hangover movies gets the randomness and the gritty of the Joker. It is good film-making, and because it is, you are allowed to hate it.

Wanted. Said I’d help. An optimistic book, science-y or sci-fi related, no illness, no death or dying. Any suggestions?

GREAT book haul today! Went to my favourite second hand book store today and scored these books for between $3 and $4. All of these are in very good to fine condition and online they would get a pretty price. I want to read them all. #booksky #sciencefiction #bookhaul

Probably the best line in a review I've ever heard, except "This should probably be reviewed by the police.", is "It will take your head off, in a good way."

This is our fifth map in the Autumn Lands series. This focuses in on the head of the valley between the mountain ranges in the other maps of the region, with a tall cliff-face with dramatic waterfalls separating it from the lower area.
