Sep 23rd - Seymour Krelborn learns that his strange plant, Audrey II, is actually "a Mean Green Mother from Outer Space" that intends to take over the world. 📽️📅 Little Shop of Horrors (1986)
3 Screenshots from the movie "Little Shop of Horrors" (1986): First, green glowing text floats on a cosmic starfield reading, "On the twenty-third day of the month of September. In an early year of a decade not too long before our own, the human race suddenly encountered a deadly threat to its very existence." Second, a man in glasses and a red shirt struggles with a large white sack while a giant, carnivorous plant with an open mouth stands behind him. Third, two massive, monstrous flytrap-like plants with gaping mouths and sharp teeth loom over a cityscape at night.

The difference between a catacomb and a basement is skulls. Catacomb without skulls? Thats a basement. Skulls in your basement? Thats a catacomb. Tired of having to keep saying this

TIL that from 1961 to 2009 there was a bowling alley in Antarctica (at McMurdo station) and it used penguin-themed pins.

The BBC breaking news report of Hockney's death concludes with the words: 'Stay with us as we bring you the latest developments.' I am genuinely curious as to what, in the circumstances, those developments might be.

There's probably never been a better time to remind you that when David Hockney first took his Mum to California she remarked 'all this lovely weather and nobody puts their washing out'.

Here’s a poem called ‘What Don Corleone Did Next’. #worldotterday
What Don Corleone Did Next 
 
upon retiring 
from the mafia,
 
he wove aquatic mammals 
out of raffia 
 
let me tell you 
how I learnt this news: 
 
he made me an otter 
I couldn’t refuse

The funny thing about the Streisand effect is that every time it happens people are like “ha ha that’s the Streisand effect” meaning a bunch of new people learn about the Streisand effect, reactivating the original effect like a microbe thawing in permafrost

The first panel shows a crow with the title "How to live a good life". The second panel shows a crow cawing at itself in the mirror with the subheading "Make friends". The next panel says "Explore" and shows a crow looking into a commercial waste bin. The next says "Try new things" with a crow eating something vile. The next one says "Be curious" and shows the crow grabbing a hissing cat's tail". The final frame says "Get a hobby" and shows the crow looking closely at a book of matches.

I don't deny that dogs can sometimes be quite lovely but what I will say is I don't trust their opinions. If a cat recommended me an album it had bought, I'd totally check it out. If a dog did the same, I'd promise to listen to the album, out of politeness, with no intention of actually doing so
