The Shai-Hulud Savant. Shelved more pingers than you’ve had hot dinners.
Been watching the doc about the mushroom murderer. I can’t believe how strongly I want to go for a pint with that doctor. Absolutely represents the best thing about Australians. Not a care in the world apart from his patients, utterly no-nonsense, and mad as a March hare in every other way.

Harrison Ford is so relatable.

New read: The Fort Bragg Cartel by Seth Harp.

Impeccably sourced and written with precision and momentum. Many of the details in it will set your head spinning.

Our boy Cosmo is one year old today. I’m becoming very good at cat psychology. Did you know that cats dominate all edges? If there’s an edge that your cat is governing, woe betide you if you encroach or dangle near it.

Me reaching for another soor ploom.

Treated myself to a couple of Hangman Adam Page t-shirts in the 4th July sale. Great-t-shirts and very comfy, cannae whack them.

Buying wrestling t-shirts at 44 might be a bit sad, but hey, like what you like. Going through some health shit, so a bit of cowboy shit might redress the balance.

Watching Star Trek VI. The Excelsior has been jostled and blown all over the shop by the exploding Klingon moon Praxis. Sulu tells his comms officer to contact Klingon high command. It’s very fraught. The officer flashes him this expression. She’s totally thinking “that’s just bad Praxis.”

Trying to decide what to watch tonight and I just know this clip will come in handy at some point soon.

Never noticed Michael Dorn as a human (admittedly in a theoretical flashback) in this episode before!

This is a guy who you only ever see when you’re enjoying something (I’m watching DS9’s Shakaar). Maybe he has been in some not so great stuff, but always been a great screen presence. Should have been a bigger That Guy. Proud that we exported the Big Irish Head to America in the 19th Century.

Captain Louvois is the jag-off.

Can’t believe we didn’t get a cat ages ago. What a dude.

Look at this Long Boi. Not even 6 months old. For context, the TV’s 55” (a Hi-Sense, none of your fancy gubbins in THIS house), which by my impeccable maths and reasoning makes this lad roughly 6’7”. Trying to get him signed to the WWE.

Adore this little oddball. I promise I haven’t posed him like this.
February 23, 2025 at 3:30 PM
Kind of telling that this was my last purchase.

This lad Cosmo loves the scritches. To the extent that he’s made me rub him with my face to be able to send this. Top lad. If somewhat combative towards my feet.

I need them for walking, mate.

This longboi’s got it pretty good.
January 27, 2025 at 5:13 PM
Absolutely adore this little goblin.

This wee lad is only 17 weeks old. He’s already basically the size of some adults cats. Bigger than my sister’s last cat, who was a runt. We’ve got a monster on our hands.

Stuck Gorky Park on on a whim and saw Rikki Fulton in the first few minutes.

Went to see my Nana and Gaga every week when I was wee. They had four videos: Fawlty Towers, Laurel and Hardy, Scotch and Wry and Scotch and Wry.

I cannot begin to tell you how much they all influenced me.

Wee post-festive treat for myself just arrived.
