OH BUGGER OFF.

My favourite! And absolutely holds his own against Vincent Price in "The Abominable Dr Phibes", which is no mean feat.

What, both of them together? Nice.

I need to find the source for this but I recall Russell T. Davies joking about doing musical/animated Doctor Who episodes back in 2006 or so (he finally did them in 2024-2025). The "interview" was set in the future and delivered from his cell in a mental institution.

The perineum that can save the galaxy in Death to the Daleks is not quite as good but don't let that taint your opinion of it.

Obsessive kids in subjects specific libraries are the best! I love any time I get to make someone's day. Never had an interaction as good as yours, though XD

I'm right here, ducky.

Today I saw some bloke jogging on the treadmill in a collared shirt and a jumper. I didn't get a good look at his pants but there is a non-zero probability they were suit trousers.

Look up the actor who plays the best friend on IMDB. He had an... interesting career trajectory after Fright Night.

This is what I came online for: ripped men wrestling dead fish.

An excerpt from a newspaper article from 1912 about the police investigating a bizarre dance performed by a young girl.

There's a guy next to me in the gym on a recumbent bike idly twirling the pedals while listening to something playing out loud on his phone. The bike isn't even switched on.

I do love the people who drag themselves to the gym at 6 am and then *don't* exercise out of spite.

I eat pizza in winter. Just call me a rebel.

I mean, what makes you think that elves are any more magical than something like a whale? Yoy know what I mean? What if I told you a story about how underneath the ocean, there was this giant sea mammal that used sonar and sang songs and it was so big that its heart was the size of a car and you could crawl through the arteries? I mean, you'd think that was pretty magical, right?

Saw someone say the world is a boring place because there are no elves or dragons, so I'm legally obliged to share this:

So, BlueSky, one of my passions is the study of tea in WW2. I need you to watch this oral history from three ex-tea ladies from the Bermondsey WVS.

Because you could guess for ONE THOUSAND YEARS and you would not guess where it is going... #skystorians #history #tea

Is something happening today?

Come flort with us.

The BBC's 1973 adaptation of ALICE THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS contained enough nightmare fuel to put a rocket in orbit. Sarah 'Nyssa from Doctor Who' Sutton as Alice, there.

Amazing, I always loved Animorphs.
