I was a sensitive and easily scared child. - lots of 1970s Doctor Who, but especially the giant maggots from The Green Death - trailers/ads for various Bigfoot movies that were all the rage in the 1970s - Watership Down - took me three tries watching it on tv to make it all the way through

Send a message to the Liberals that you want to protect Toronto’s waterfront forever by voting for Shannon Devine in Beaches—East York. #NoJetsTO

This is just my brain every day. Had to be reminded by my wife on the way out of The Odyssey that I had in fact seen Troy. I’ve seen Rififi three times, great film, don’t remember anything specific that happens in it.

Jesse's correct on this point. Our current system gives us the best of both worlds: reasonable daylight hours in the winter, more evening daylight hours (and just as important, no 5am sunrises to wake you up too early) in the summer.

Me watching the special Gary episode of The Bear: If Richie is savvy enough about ska/reggae to put "Stop That Train" and "Johnny Too Bad" on his road trip mix CD, why does he then make fun of the name Althea? Does he not know of Althea & Donna and their great single "Uptown Top Ranking"?

Silver lining for me, as I have an irrational dislike of meeting anyone else named Donald/Don, which thankfully doesn't really happen that often because the popularity of the name has been in serious decline my entire life.

I watched lots of reputedly bad tv and movies as a kid (even liked 1941 enough to see it twice, one in the theatre and once on tv), but the film that proved I actually had a limit was SUPERMAN III. (Remember hearing from friends that THE ICE PIRATES was bad, but didn't see it for myself.)

Montreal! I wish Toronto could play that well. Looking forward to an all-Canadian PWHL final. Will be rooting for Montreal over Ottawa because they have the best logo.

I usually prefer my Robyn Hitchcock solo but it was nonetheless a rare treat to see him with a full electric band tonight at the Horseshoe. That slippery, paranoid groove in "Insanely Jealous" really popped. Also nice to hear "Flesh No. 1", which I don't think I've ever seen him play live before.

It finally happened - my local grocery story has run out of their last stock of frozen orange juice, which is being discontinued in Canada. Pour one out for concentrated OJ, a convenient and less bulky way to store a beloved breakfast beverage. 🫡

Mackinac Island in Michigan, a rite of passage for grade 8 students of Northern Heights P.S. in Sault Ste. Marie, Canada for years. I can still bring to mind the comingled scent of fudge and horse manure. (Film content: Somewhere in Time was shot there.)

Another exciting Toronto Sceptres game today, though taking until the last minute to score a second goal (and empty netter at that) kept things a little too close for comfort. Nice to attend a winning game for a change!

I wonder if Minnesota Frost player Curl gets booed as heartily at other PWHL games or if Toronto is alone in its passionate dislike of her.

I passed this Mystery Spot many times as a child, but I don’t think I ever stopped. Might’ve been wary of the mystery aspect. Castle Rock, on the other hand, was a regular stop, much clearer what you were signing up for.

Happy New Year! I watched a lot of movies in 2025, no doubt in part because I've been unemployed since Febrary. Still catching up on some recent releases, but for now, here are my favourite new films from 2025: letterboxd.com/captfuzz/lis...

What was the last movie or tv show you watched in 2025? (Spending the holidays in London and finally had the opportunity to check out the game/panel show Taskmaster in our downtime. Equal parts bonkers and fiendish, highly enjoyable.)

Two Udo Kier memories. 1) Watching him harangue a poor Bloor Cinema employee who had the temerity to cut his microphone off when his interview went way over-time. 2) Locking eyes with him at the Yonge & Dundas cinema and feeling a cold chill run down my spine. As big in life as on the screen. RIP

Tonight's outing: The Saints '73-'78 at the Phoenix, original Saints members Ed Kuepper and Ivor Hay joined by Mudhoney's Mark Arm (on vocals, a very good choice to stand in for the late Chris Bailey), Peter Oxley, former Bad Seed Mick Harvey and even a horn section. Loud & raucous!

Tonight’s outing - the Miki Berenyi Trio at The Great Hall! You may remember Miki from the great shoegaze/dreampop band Lush, and MB3 definitely recall the dreamier side of that band’s sound, all shimmering guitars and ethereal vocals.

If you see this, quote with an image from a game that released the year you were born. (Have never, ever seen this game before, but it does look very much like a product from 1967.)

Tonight's outing: Stereolab (first time!) at the Danforth Music Hall. Neglected to listen to the new album, which dominated the setlist, but didn't really matter because I respond to the band's overall vibe more than any specific song, perfect for getting lost in the groove. Good show for that!

Tonight's outing: Sparks at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre. Fun, high energy show, though I had the best time when I was in familiar territory, namely the opening song and the final third of the show.
