A cool way to end the cinematic year!

The Godzilla Store produced a US-sales only deluxe four disc set of Shin Godzilla.

A friend went above & beyond to get it to me, as well as a bunch of Once Upon A Time In Hollywood buttons he picked up for me from Tarantino's @newbeverly.bsky.social

"Facism has had a great year!"
@jimmykimmel.com was pure class all the way in his alternative Christmas speech for Channel 4.

Happy 71st anniversary #GodzillaDay
Celebrating with these Yamakatsu sofubi I picked up in 1984 (the same day I saw Nina Simone at legendary jazz club, Ronnie Scott's) and looking forward to #GodzillaMinusOne director Takashi Yamazaki visiting here in Norway when he films #GodzillaMinusZero

A less than subtle reminder that I'll be appearing at the #maltacomiccon on the 8th and 9th November at the Eden Arena. I hope to meet some of you there. I'll be taking part in the Manga and Animation panel.

The upside to living in the country as a writer: sitting on the veranda at 6 a.m watching the sun rise and hit the trees, and listening to the deer bark out a territorial scuffle in the field below while drinking a passable coffee for a late night/early morning shift.

Genuine White House medical report on Agent Orange:
"His active lifestyle continues to contribute significantly to his well-being... his days include... frequent victories in golf events."
Satire is dead.

Sunday morning spin: my OP 12" of Kenshi Yonezu singing M 87, the theme song from Shinji Higuchi and Hideki Anno's 2022 love letter feature to Tsuburaya's beloved franchise, Shin Ultraman.

A beautiful, sunny day, so spinning Yurie Kokubu's Relief 72 Hours, a classic of city pop jampacked with mellow funk/soul grooves.

The Brits can't wait to welcome Trump back to the UK and give him their usual warm welcome...

INTERESTING.

A beautiful day deserves a spin of Hiromi Iwasaki's 1980 gem of city pop, Wish. Her gentle, easy vocals are surrounded by top West Coast musicians who played regularly with Steely Dan and James Taylor.
As smooth as an afternoon drive along the PCH.

A couple of days late for her birthday (the 24th, for interested parties), but spending the morning spinning my Japanese OP 45s in honour of the mighty Meiko Kaji.
