RIP Joe Caroff, much overlooked graphic designer who gave us some fantastic movie posters. He also designed the iconic 007 gun logo. #film #graphicdesign

Pretty sure this is how the #trump #putin meeting went down…

Once upon a time, before podcasts were ubiquitous, I produced a series called Utter Shambles for @robinince.bsky.social and @josielong.bsky.social

We had brilliant guests, but a lot of episodes are lost. Around 25 still exist out there, they were really fun to do and I recommend you seek them out.

Wrote this while in a bad mood yesterday. I’ve calmed down today, but I stand by it.

Hey. Hey! Thinking of a lovely stocking filler for a loved one or nemesis this Christmas? I have two books with that would be excellent choices. One even explicitly mentions Christmas, so really there’s no excuse. Get them here: linktr.ee/adrianmackin...

25 years ago, this was my job. Thanks to AI, it probably will be again…

Whatever you think of the #Jaguar rebrand, that’s a high status Instagram account right there.

Egypt have gone to town with their stand. Inside they’ve got the exhumed remains of Howard Carter.

Props to Morocco for the effort that went into their stand. Looks like something out of Chessington World of Adventures.

Wonder how much they paid Chris Hemsworth to be the corporate face of the Abu Dhabi tourist industry. I’m sure he doesn’t need the cash…

Still a thing apparently. For people who overshare.

I don’t remember the plot of War of The Worlds being THAT exciting...

#Biden looking like the main villain in every episode of The A Team…

See it’s this kind of madness that puts the horrors of the world into perspective.

Oh I do, fancy gastropub. That’s the problem.

Not all disabilities are visible. Which is why we should bring back the ear trumpet.

Hello lovely people. I’m new around these parts. I’m a comedian, writer, part-time historian and author of two books - and counting. This is my latest. Death and the Victorians. It’s a hoot. Happy to be here. Let’s just wait here a while and see what happens… #books #writing #historian
