Have a short nap, no one will mind.

Many happy returns, welcome to the club x

“DTF St. Louis” Peers Into the Suburban Male Psyche Jason Bateman excels as the Everyman, reeking of ennui and buried impulses, in the new HBO comic whodunnit, also with David Harbour and Linda Cardellini.

It's a long time since I loved a show as much as I am HBO's "DTF St Louis". It's an HBO drama of old - wildly original, weird, funny, sexy, screwed up and beautifully written and directed. Give it a whirl, my beauties. www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

Sexy news, Mr @robpalk.bsky.social 🎉

While I am firm in my belief Starmer should go, and soon, isn’t it weird we’ve got sucked into a side argument over the process for a security clearance for Mandelson, the turning down of which had nothing to do with Epstein? It’s the British political class at its worst, I think.

You might very well think that; I couldn't possibly comment ;-)

Jaane Jaan Dhoondta Phir Raha | Jawani Diwani (1972) | Kishore Kumar & Asha Bhosle | Randhir & Jaya YouTube video by Kishore Kumar Hit Songs

Legendary singer Asha Bhosle passed away yesterday.. This is my fav Asha song, a truly timeless melody composed by her husband RD Burman, sung with Kishore Kumar. Form the movie Jawani Diwani (1972) it has traveled through the decades with a strong sense of nostalgia & romance

I actually gasped with joy at how good this joke is.

one of many reasons i will never accept abandoning my trans siblings or the broader queer community for the purposes of "a bigger tent"

What happens to Britain's radical right if Orbán loses? Inside the money, power and patronage connecting Hungary and the British right

It's a good night to read this excellent piece, on the Orban regime's network of financial support for the nationalist right in Britain.

For many on the radical right, the tills are about to stop ringing.

I've always found it a completely lifeless record and you've just made me realise why that might be!

If anyone knows any LEEDS families, please share this with them. I have one more Easter holidays family comedy show and it’s Tuesday 14th. Ticket sales are currently low 😢 so any help spreading the word will be met with eternal gratitude!

Same, utter joy from beginning to end!

Oh god, me too! Has it really never been attempted?

But shall this crazed old man be tamely suffered to drag a whole ship’s company down to doom with him?

Happy War Crimes Day to all who celebrate.

My #LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched:
1. A surprisingly conventional but coolly effective early-ish Truffaut.
2. Incredibly enjoyable, quite silly Gosling sci-fi guff.
3. Another stone-cold Bong Joon Ho classic. SO SO GOOD.
4. Underwhelming Oscar bait misery porn.

Amazing to see how this once neglected footnote has grown in time into becoming one of their most loved songs. In a similar vein: Hey Bulldog by The Beatles.

Love this!

If I could like this a million times, I would!

Btw, been trying to get her onto Bluesky without success, perhaps this will tip her over the edge...

Yes that's my official title ;-)
C was extremely tickled when I read your post out, described you affectionately as a 'brilliant firebrand'. Boy, I've heard a lot about that school. Not my experience at an East Yorkshire comp, that's for sure! She sends all her love x

Marie is so right. If you haven't discovered @fip.fr yet, welcome to the greatest radio station in the world. Incredibly eclectic, it has NO rotating playlist - each song just has to have a connection to the previous one. I listen to it almost every evening while cooking and it is pure soothing joy.

if you want to know the history of this kind of policy, I made a podcast two years ago that explained why these tests make no sense, how they were already used and eventually abandoned by the IOC in the 80's and 90's, and the devastating impacts they have on real athletes: www.tested-podcast.com

Caroline has been watching the rollback in real time. It's so fucking depressing.

When you finally wonder if maybe you’ve contributed to a moral panic that has led to the most extreme assault on minority rights since Jim Crow

Sir Keir Makes a Difficult Phone Call Cold Open | SNL UK YouTube video by Sky TV

Lovely seeing the collective relief that SNL UK is actually really good. Hey, maybe it IS still possible to launch something new that the internet doesn’t immediately crush to death with hate? Thought this Starmer cold open was brilliant youtu.be/yI1Lzi1ufOQ?...

Harvest Moon YouTube video by Jane Birkin - Topic

The second is Jane Birkin's achingly delicate re-working of Neil Young's Harvest Moon, a cover that feels full of the urgency of keeping love alive as the years pass. I find it impossibly moving. youtu.be/qOmgbd-c4f0?...
