Trying to get a parcel to the UK is like trying to get an audience with the king. Why is it always such a faff?

Yesterday I had the sandwich of dreams and what pains me the most is that even if I recreate it, I will never be able to recapture that first bite and the sensational taste.

I don’t know who is the baker at Goods in Brussels but it feels like they have a link with Biggie Lemke of Superette (ah, how I miss the sweltering heat of that place).

Just as you thought food delivery companies couldn't inflict any more misery on society:
Instead of using lowly-paid gig economy contractors to deliver groceries, they're replacing humans with robots, who, in turn, force humans off the pavement into road traffic.

“T” stands for “tight rope.” At least, it does in late artist Sister Corita Kent’s “circus alphabet” (1968), a 30-part series of serigraph prints that each feature a letter.
Sister Corita Kent Found the Sacred in the Profane
An installation of the artist’s never-before-seen photographs accumulates meaning through association rather than argument.

Sure, doe maar, maar ik ga het niet nalezen.
En die service en kwaliteit waar ze over doorbomen op hun website? Lijkt me ook een farce.

The entire Instagram "influencer" model is basically dead. Why bother posing in a hipster coffee shop when the AI can gin up the image for free in two minutes?

My MIL had two ambulance bills of $5,000 each. 🤷🏻♀️
Elisabeth Yoder’s 15-month-old son had a serious bacterial infection, and doctors urged his mother to take an ambulance to treat him 40 minutes away.
The bill came to $9,250.

BACURAU starring the late great Udo Kier now on MUBI.
Here’s a free month so you can watch it 👍🏻

I cannot recommend this movie enough if you're looking to honor the passing of Udo Kier. Trust me - you do not know where this movie is going until you get there. Such a great flick...
If you're looking for an Udo Kier film to watch, may I recommend BACURAU (2019), starts off like a worthy slice of sociopolitical realism and ends up as demented Brazilian neo-western exploitation. Don't read anything else, just see it. Contains one of my favourite film moments of the 21st century.

Our holiday tradition is we tell our grandkids that bad kids get sent to the North Pole, are turned into elves, and forced into slave labor to make toys for a year.
It works better than the elf on a shelf bullshit.
All we do is look at their ears and tell them theirs are looking pretty pointy.
