The Odyssey this, Dracula that. Someone needs to do an adaptation of Faust again

Favourite moment of 2024

Thinking about how THE BEAST handled the ‘incel’ stuff with this touching earnestness, instead of taking a millennial internet brained approach to it (which has now become passé imo). True visionary

Happy birthday to the great Alan Rudolph, 2025 will be his long overdue renaissance. Watch a good movie today:

Jean-Luc Godard exhibition at the ICA on Sunday. Excited, but anticipating very complex emotions

As great as Raymond Carver was, he has had perhaps one of worst impacts on contemporary literature. I swear 3/4s of short story collection published that I read now just read as a (bad) impersonation

I currently have a black eye because I had a night terror and woke up screaming, and then immediately ran face first into a chest of drawers. Not embarrassing at all obviously
