- and cried at my first viewing of #JeanCocteau's #BeautyAndTheBeast (1946) when I was a young adult. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTeq...

#ADHD #Autism www.youtube.com/shorts/10-K1... I get ND Frisson/Nerodivergent Chills with films too. Only just learned that this phenomenon had a name yesterday but I've always felt it. It explains why I'd burst into tears at certain songs when I was a kid -

#PaulineBlack #TheSelecter #TwoTone #ska @thatsnotmyage.bsky.social When I was 14 I wanted to be Pauline Black. I thought she was the coolest woman alive along with Chrissy Hynde. thatsnotmyage.com/inspirationa...
#ADHD #Blancmange #synthpop Morning! This is so BOUNCY. It's as bouncy as a Spacehopper. I spent most of my childhood on a Spacehopper, which became a bit of a problem at mealtimes (I'm kidding about the last part). www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8x9...
#victoriawood www.theguardian.com/stage/2026/a... God, I miss this woman.
Handling rejection the #BusterKeaton way in Seven Chances (1925). Set up - Buster has been going around asking every woman he meets if she'll marry him in order to inherit seven million dollars. Then he meets a hat check girl played by the amazing #RosalindByrne. www.instagram.com/reels/DA6cLp...
Morning. I hope your bush is nice and lush and healthy...What? There's someone IN your bush 'push-push'ing about? GET THEM OUT OF THERE. IT'S SUNDAY. www.youtube.com/watch?v=dqRN...
Look at Copper's wee face! I can't wait to meet him.
My husband works at Edinburgh College Of Art and has non-binary students. Sometimes I drop in and attend his screenings. I've found (as an oldie) that the best way of remembering is just to call people by their first name, and that nudges your brain into the correct place and stops you misgendering.
They seem to quite like it, the lunatics!
ANOTHER CORRECTION AT 9PM: The mysterious other person is supposed to be the BEST MAN but his status as the Best Man is somewhat blurry. They're 'hoping' he'll make it. Do they have a back up plan if he doesn't show up?
David is watching Italian people eating British cheese on YouTube. Would anyone care to comment on this bombshell.
#ChatGPT www.theguardian.com/commentisfre... Ha-ha. But also AAAARRRRRGGHHH.
Another correction: He's talking to a mysterious other person. "YOUR best friend Harry has a BROTHER Larry." So Harry is directly related to Larry. I still don't know why he's compelled to attend this matrimonial ceremony.
This conundrum has been buzzing around in my brain for the last 37 years.
Nice trousers Flea. Maybe I should get a pair. After all, at the age of 60 I'm invisible anyway, so I can do what I like. Correction: His best friend Harry has a friend called Larry, so they probably do know each other. The depth of this friendship is now lost in the mists of time.
#YoungMC www.youtube.com/watch?v=0m3X... Morning. Here's some rap music from ye olden days when things were much more innocent. I love the concept of a 'celibate rope' but I'm confused as to why this guy has to attend the wedding of someone he doesn't appear to even know.
Good grief! Who have you been talking to?!
I must incorporate 'cockwalloper' into my vocabulary more often.
"So they did the scene 2 or 3 times. F would throw the gun and S would grab it. Finally F couldn't think of anything else to say, so he said "You, you, you...COCKWALLOPER." It was so funny that the cast just broke up." And Fred Guiol nearly fell off his director's chair laughing.
#Laurel&Hardy There was a lot of colourful language on and off the screen in With Love And Hisses (1927). While leafing through #RandySkretvedt's indispensable L&H The Magic Behind The Movies, I discovered this gem recounted by an extra about the scene where #JamesFinlayson gets Stan all riled up.

#AI and #NarcissticPersonalityDisorder This is a fascinating concept. If AI is analogous to #NPD then everyone interacting and becoming emotionally attached to Chat GPT and the like, is interacting and becoming emotionally attached to a potential psychopath. www.youtube.com/watch?v=cBdl...
#YellowMagicOrchestra Morning! Sorry about the annoying Sunday morning perkiness. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZaX...
