Keep thinking about the ‘Big Iron’ needle drop and coffee drinking in the new Fallout episode.

Pure fan service and I’m here for it.

Jukebox choices are wild.
A guy has put on ‘Phonics, Manics, The Verve, Oasis…
Alright middle aged man who doesn’t really like music…

I think I watched Mulholland Dr. early in my Lynch journey so this rewatch is making me appreciate so much more of the direction and the perfection that is Naomi Watts. 👌

After moving house I’ve been walking to work and everyone keeps asking if I want a lift - I have a car, this is a choice! (It’s a ~15min walk)
Society really is doomed right?

Gutted to miss @herring1967.bsky.social today due to a delayed bus but I look forward to listening to the podcast and feel ok about having contributed to Edinburgh accommodation costs at least!

Bonus @stuartlawscomedy.bsky.social instead. 🙂

I don’t really ‘comfort watch’ TV shows but I’ve put this on in the background while I pack my house for moving. I have laughed out loud many times already.
A work of sheer genius.

I still sometimes think about the Sex & The City box set lying in my mum’s living room that no-one would take responsibility for owning. It was almost certainly my ex-SIL’s but it was bizarre she wouldn’t own up. 😅😅

The first night in our current house we listened to Eurovision on the radio and Austria won. We’re due to move in the next month and Austria have won again. Kinda poetic I suppose!

I have a weird relationship with 428: Shibuya Scramble. (Shoutout to @mumbofish.bsky.social for the recommendation)

I think it’s one of the best games I’ve ever played but it’s taking me years to get through as I really really don’t want it to end. Just finished 16:00-17:00 today.

I’ve barely seen any April Fools stories this morning. I guess when the news is so unhinged it would be hard to come up with something…

Non-gamer colleagues and friends often ask what kinds of video games I play but nothing is harder to explain than Hatoful Boyfriend.
What a brilliant game.

I was looking a brochure for a new housing development and one of the house types was ‘The Keir’.

No thanks. 😅

So great to see Blue Velvet in a packed cinema. A range of ages but everyone was so reverent and rapt throughout.
The power of Lynch.

Every time I see Octopath Traveller on Gamepass under the ‘relaxing’ category… Oh how I laugh. 🤣

One of my favourite videos to show classes. This helps to explain the ‘New Town’ concept when teaching the Labour Reforms.

Today some kids had push pops in class (I’m a high school teacher) and I said ‘right guys put the push pops away it isn’t the 90s!’ And I’ve never felt more ancient.

I also had to say, ‘don’t push me, push a push pop!’ Which was met with… pity?
