from the 1974 espionage movie WHO? 1974: a man in a grey polo-neck has a silver egg for a head, a fawn-clad elliott gould looks on in consternation, in the background a US marine is out of focus

it's referring to how many of these guys you employ in there
panel from beano strip THE NUMSKULLS: the inside of someone's head is divided into four depts, staffed by four bald little men: the ear dept guy (yellow wallpaper) has a hearing funnel, the brain dept guy (pale yellow wallpaper) is hurrying across to an old-fashioned computer (or possibly a fax machine), the eye dept guy (pale green wallpaper) has glasses and a telescope, the nose dept guy (pink wallpaper) is sat in an armchair reading the paper (satire of some kind i imagine)

two colour photos of derrida in a silver-grey suit playing cricket (very clumsily it looks like) in front of a garden shed; the wicket is a wooden fruit tray on end and the garden is fairly wild with weeds dandelions and a single stripe of mown grass (the pitch, such as it is)

the wikipedia entry on writer-director doris wishman is interesting: very active in the 60s, feted in the 90s, returned to directing in the 00s, died aged 90 in 2002, a life well lived!

thermostat being weird so i put in new batteries: this disconnected it from the receiver & i must "bind" them via factory reset

none of this is hard (a v personable boiler engineer explained it on youtube) but it is funny to me that BENT PAPERCLIP is the tool the entire tech world still stands on

someone mentioned FUTURESHOCK (1970) to me earlier, and my goofy brain went straight to "who will comfort toffler?"
colourful cover to Tove Jansson's book for small children WHO WILL COMFORT TOFFLE?: a group of ppl stabnd in a circle gossiping with one another, including fillyjonk in red, gaffsie in orange, snufkin in green, little my in yellow, a cow-like character in pink, someone i can't identify facing away from us in a nordic winter knit, a classic "small tove beast" unclothed and time in black. toffle is a small goth-emo figure also in black (but clothed) with a beatlish mop of hair, not in the circle but instead looking out at us. below the title is the subtitle: "a tale of Moomin Valley"

ok a book I *absolutely* shd not have bought myself lol
the new translation of derrida’s GLAS aka CLANG: english title in large red handwriting, french printed in smaller black caps, beige background, translators names in smaller black handwriting across the bottom = geoffrey bennington & david wills, original french publisher edition galilée crossed out as if by black marker pen — the conceit is that this is the original french edition hand-annotated if not graffitied

original hardback cover to OF GRAMMATOLOGY (jacques derrida, 1967, translated by gayatri chakravorty spivak): against a black order, the title in gold and white, and a beautiful japanese print incorporating the figurative (a tree & a bird both in black) and type (a mosaic of red symbols of various sizes)
