“…part of me wants to meet Mary Wells Lawrence (her picture graces the desktop of my computer) and part of me is terrified that she’d eat me for lunch.” Love this entire piece Martin ❤️👏🏼

I post this without fear or favour: The Muppet Movie (1979) is as charming and entertaining a film as almost any. Comedy, romance, pathos, comedian bears driving taxi cabs.

I really enjoyed talking to Giles for the Call to Action podcast about writing and also the recent piece I wrote about burnout and becoming a demotivational speaker (we kind of expanded on all that quite a bit)

Imagine an aggressively-filtered Instagram photo of a gym wall mural that’s basically just the words 'Believe. Achieve. Receive' painted in some gloopy old Huel. Well, this week's CTA episode is the exact opposite of that, thanks to our guest @patrickfreyne.bsky.social 📣 gasp.agency/media/call-t...

NEW: Why not calling a Nazi salute a Nazi salute puts us in a whole new place of danger. We have to call spades spades or what else is there? open.substack.com/pub/broligar...

Yes, you did see what you think you saw. Here's an idea, let's call a Nazi salute a Nazi salute.

Just remembered that The Muppet Show theme song contains the line “it’s time to put on makeup” and it makes me wonder what they look like without it, maybe they look normal

Oooh, look at Sainsbury’s, with their fancy new Latin motto like they’re bleedin hogwarts Grow up

A large Sainsbury’s Store Front with the signs for the other shops laid out underneath. They are Argos Habitat Tu. sounds a bit Latin dunnit. lol eh

The fact they left out Specsavers leads me to think they knew what they were doing, and I’m probably just explaining their own joke to them

An absolute classic from @dr-draper.bsky.social and @gilesedwards.bsky.social book How Brands Blow. There’s a gut punch and a wry chortle on every page.

Remember the victims of the Nakatomi Plaza attack, 36 years ago today.

Yes thanks. Just. But, we had a false dawn and mother in law has been struck down with a bad migraine so we’re still not a fully fit team 🤦 but @dr-draper.bsky.social has just arrived in town so maybe he can remedy us all :)

I’ll see your 15, and raise you 22 to Sydney (for a few days) and then 5 to Perth. With no northern lights. 🤦

A reminder that MF DOOM has a Christmas album. Sort of. Cookin Soul beats with a mix of old DOOM accapellas and his Adult Swim Xmas idents. One of my faves. www.youtube.com/watch?v=EwzB...

We flew 5 hours to get from Sydney to Perth. This place is absurd. 5 hours. That’s London to Baghdad distances. And instead of being 11 hours ahead it’s now 3 hours back. And at the aquarium earlier we met a snail that can kill you. This place is ridiculous.

Yes. TBH we’re a marketing agency so not comparable to many agencies. Advertising is barely a fraction of what we do. Sometimes we’ll go months without doing any.

Giles Edwards @gilesedwards.bsky.social · 06/12/2024

Exactly. For a long time too. We set up 15+ years ago because of this. Hard to see the wood when you work among the trees I guess.
