About to watch Polyester as God (John Waters) intended…
A hand holding up a white rectangular card with the numbers 1 to 10 printed in black, with each number in a pink circle. 1 to 5 on the top line and 6 to 10 on the bottom. In the middle, is the word “ODORAMA”

So, while the costumes in GDT’s Frankenstein were legitimately stunning and were in person at the film’s exhibition, I was totally checking out the exhibit for the more grisly parts.

CW Gore
An angel carved out of wood. It wears Roman style armour and it lit in red light. Its eyes look upwards, its right arm is raised with its index finger pointing upwards too. A cadaver kneeling forwards on a table, its head lowered with its left arm extending beyond, its right underneath its body. The head is a skull, the body’s spine is open with hooks holding the flesh apart. A cadaver lying on its back. The picture is a close up of its face which is open at the cheeks and with flesh missing from its scalp. The right eye is closed. The left stares from an open socket. It may not be the body’s original eye. A torso displayed upright. It has one arm, the right, which hangs down. The torso is open with ribcage and left side missing. The right lung and heart is visible. The head is open at the top exposing its brain. Its eyes are closed and jaw slack.

I saw pelicans today
This is my pelican post
If your post doesn’t have pelicans, it is a pelican’t post
A pelican standing on grass and autumn leaves Five pelicans standing on grass. Two in the foreground (one sitting), one in the middle ground and two more in the background. The five pelicans again with one in the foreground A peek at a pelican crouching in the grass through a small iron fence (free him!)

Bugonia was surprisingly faithful to Save the Green Planet down to the feel good ending. Applause also to @letterboxd.social for making me howl when I came to log the film…
A screenshot of the Letterboxd page for the film Bugonia. In front of it is a Captcha test depicting Emma Stone’s character across a nine square grid. Above the grid is the text “Select any squares that may contain aliens”. Below the grid is a tick box to allow you to declare “I’m not an alien”.

Checked Threads for the first time in an age. They now have a feature called Ghost Posts (as modelled by my glamorous assistant @darrylayo.bsky.social below). The little ghost icon is very cute. I’m not bothered about time limited posts but having a speech bubble around your post seems fun.
A post by user letsgoayo on Threads. It says “Cartoons” and is contained within a speech bubble. Below are buttons to like (a heart), add an emoji and then a little speech bubble shaped ghost with “17h left” highlighting a time limit in which the post will be viewable.

Either or both? Will donate again tomorrow when I get paid!
A receipt of a donation to Hannah’s GoFundMe Two cats in a bathroom looking at the camera. On the left is a large fluffy B&W cat on the bathroom shelf. To their right, lower down is a smaller cat, tabby patterns in her back and face and white along her chest and tummy. The two cats again, only now the smaller cat is looking up at the larger cats. The smaller cat is still looking at the larger cat who is now meowing

Did a double take outside my flat after thinking I’d walked into a David Lynch film… 👂🏻

Not what I originally thought but I’m getting no closer as I fear it might be something far worse (and far less sanitary)
Something that looks like an ear laying in some bushes but is made of rubber and could be a mouth/tongue

New @helleborezine.bsky.social has arrived and just in time for the spooky season too…
A copy of Hellebore Zine reflected in a mirror with a bloody handprint to the right. The cover of the magazine depicts a woman’s face. She wears a pearl necklace and behind are two vanity mirrors containing other faces.

Love it, but I think the “Bom, Bom, Bom” bit might be misinterpreted as a bomb threat 💣
Post from Bethany Black saying: “The Oregonian Frogs are missing a trick not playing Paul McCartney’s Frog Chorus as their song, “we all stand together” is a perfect sentiment all things considered”

I mean…?
A black woman is kneeling before a seated black man. Her hands are held out before her, holding a bottle of Irn Bru and a box of shortbread fingers as an offering.

Read the latest Criminal book, The Knives, from Brubaker, @seanphillips.bsky.social & son. Definitely rewarding if you’re a long time fan, seeing characters from the series’ history come into each other’s orbit, some for the first time? Certain it stands alone well, too.

My favourite panel…
A panel from the comic book The Knives by Sean Phillips. Depicts a close up on a 90 year old woman’s face, eyes open in surprise at a drawing in a book that she is holding. “Oh” she says.

Unexpected post!
The @2000ad.bsky.social Art of @seanphillips.bsky.social has arrived and it is big and beautiful with a great sketch by Sean (thank you!). Contains so many covers along with Danzig’s Inferno, the first Armitage strip, several Dredds including Brief Encounter and more.
A large hardback book with a painted cover by Sean Phillips depicting Judge Dredd stepping towards the reader with his right fist in front of him. An ink drawing inside the book by Sean Phillips based on the strip Danzig’s Inferno. It depicts the bust of a man in a mechanical brace covering his neck and shoulders with a circular speaker over his mouth. He is bald with his left eye replaced by a Sony camera.

Meanwhile…
Zack Polanski quote tweeting the Labour Press account on Twitter The Labour Press tweet says: “Meet Zack Polanski. This is the person who the Greens just elected as their new leader” linking to a Sun article with an image of a quote from that article: “HAS the time come when we can burn all those uncomfortable push-up bras? Hypnotherapist Zack Polanksi reckons so. He says he can boost your cup size using the mind alone.” This is an extremely new approach, but I can see it becoming popular very quickly, because it's so safe and a lot cheaper than a boob job," says Zack.” Zack Polanski’s QT to this post says: “I made a mistake - and apologised. I've never armed a genocide though.”
