This is Scotchy. He is here to collect the belly rub toll. Would like to remind you that failing to pay results in a fine of even more belly rubs. 12/10 (TT: scotchythedoxie)

GREAT day! Met some local youths outside the village shop who asked me to buy them a packet of cigarettes for use in “an anti-smoking billboard campaign” they're working on. I was happy to help! When I gave them the packet they ran to a nearby alley to get started. Good luck with the campaign, kids!

How cool is it that with the release of One Battle After Another that there is a pretty palpable interest in what format the film is being watched in? It gives me hope that cinema isn’t a dead art form.

Shocked to find out that people still buy ringtones. If my phone vibrates too loudly, I give everyone in the room a dollar
