Watching BMTH on Reading live. Seen them live myself more than any other band and they really do blow your face off (with a smile on it). Epic.

I've been loving horror for so long, I wake from nightmares smiling. Had an absolute belter last night.

If you use 😆 or comment 'cringe' on every post showing empathy for others or vulnerability in any way; decent people just see you as Nelson the bully in The Simpsons (a dick).

My ADHD is raging today. I'm trying to summarise a talk and I cannot for the life of me describe it despite doing it HUNDREDS of times and being able to deliver the talk without any notes. But some bullet points in an email? Nope!

Following up on the "man who doesn't do podcasts discovers @talkscaredpod.bsky.social and is hooked" saga. Just heard the revisited Michael Marshall Smith episode. Someone I've been lucky enough to interview. A joy to hear.

Charming, clever, wordy bastard.

Another year's gone by without Stanley Tucci becoming a close friend. It's getting silly now.

I'm terrible at Podcasts. Just don't DO them. However a friend sent me @talkscaredpod.bsky.social saying "maybe this is the podcast that gets you into podcasts". Started with From A Buick 8 episode and it's EVERYTHING I didn't know I needed.

When billionaire CEOs in real life are like fictional supervillains in movies, that's when people take drastic action.

It's quite outrageous every moment I'm not in Spain being on holiday.

Every year around this time I try to remind people that the long nights and dark afternoons are transient in the hope of bringing a little light. It helps my mental health too ❤️

My numbness to horror is such that after watching Terrifier 3 I had comedy dreams of women being chased by HMRC for tax fiddles.

However the nightmares I wake fearful from *do* tend to be me stuck in a confusing and boring job with loads of admin I don't understand.

Well *streches luxuriously* it's feeling nice over here, innit?

I moved to Threads to escape the toxicity and goose-stepping of Twitter. But increasingly devoid of targets there, they're popping up on Threads. I hope Bluesky remains a safe place.

Ok, let's do this thang. Who's:

Horror
