Still got mine from 1985! Incredibly influential on me.

This is obviously some sort of scam, but to what end? Anyone know?

This is a great book for Labyrinth fans. Laura Phillips did the big structural rewrite, then the final rewrite was by Elaine May. The shooting script had input from George Lucas, Brian and Wendy Froud, and Lisa Henson among others.

Might as well use this as an excuse to post this excellent photo of Miles Davis with Kenny G.

That white wisp on the mountain in the distance is the Conwy wildfire. It’s been burning at least since 4am, and is still going now. (The pic was taken about 5pm). This is from four miles away.

You really know you’ve made it as a poet when you get your own branded water. This is 100% a real product.
Three cartons of WB Yeats branded water. They have Yeats’s face and signature on them.

Finally got the shitty AI-generated book marketing spam email that all the proper authors have been getting. Feels like I’ve made it.

I’m reading Exterminate! Regenerate!, John Higgs’s new book about Doctor Who, and it is, as is usual with John Higgs books, great. This quote from Russell T. Davies just made me laugh out loud.

Every time I see this shop I find myself imagining that Sporty Spice has gotten involved in some sort of Terminator-esque situation.

Played @panic.com @coalsupper.bsky.social ‘Thank Goodness You’re Here’ a couple of months ago. After finishing it, it gave you an address to send off to. Today I got this lovely iron on patch in the post. Loved this game - set in a Northern British town, with voices by Matt Berry.

I went to my Goodreads author page for the first time in YEARS and found that a reader has ‘quoted’ my book. Which is lovely, but… this quote??? (It appears on the road to Hell, which is literally paved with good intentions). Out of context it sounds like I’m bellowing rejected lyrics to ‘Faster’.
