Saying this with a horrible head cold, but I'm so tired of the weather remaining in light summer mode. Bring back single digit temperatures please.

Watching this after years of caring for elderly people and just last week returning home from a trip to Wales where I accidentally took my mum up some mountain pass that was the highest highest road in the north of the country certainly gave it a lot of extra meaning. It's an incredible film.

I gave this album a listen in my early 20s, thought it was alright, then again in my early 30s and thought the same thing. Now at 42, this is one of the best things I've ever heard. I'm such an idiot.

The sign that you've made it is getting into Kojima's studio and having your picture posted on the socials with him. Not bad, YouTube CGI and liminal space nerd.

Here's a really stupid video I made but I'm giggling at my own joke here. It combines music, gaming, and books into one.

Picked up some cinema from a charity table. It stood out amongst all the rubbish airport romance literature, like a diamond in the rough. A movie you most watch happy view

Oh the latest Optimism Vaccine (@jackeason.bsky.social) is about the director of Sound of Thunder. I was talking to @alephg.bsky.social about this the other day, back in 2002ish I was living in a student house with the son of the art director. His dad visited us from the set in Prague...

I've been going through this series from the start and it's been fun, like slowly eating a big bowl of random pick and mix sweets, some delicious, some horrible (UB40 are inescapable). I've yet to discover some lost gem though, all the best songs are the ones we remember now.

Yesterday I saw that Current 93 features on Bladee's latest album which came out in May, now I've learned David Cronenberg is on Charli XCX's which came out today.

Week 1 (heatwave): Car AC breaks, "booked for 8 days time" Week 2 (hot): Take it in, "part is broken, replacement is £700, return in 8 days to get it fitted" Week 3 (hot): Take it in again, they drain my money out, fit it in, AC still blows hot air. They're closed until Monday.

Gotta respect Tuchel. He steered the team in exactly the way England expect: being crap and disappointed by its country.

It has taken me 15 years to get to PJ Harvey's Let England Shake. What a mistake because it is superb.

RIP Sam Neill. So many great, knotty performances, so many bold choices, such a consistently interesting career & still - shamefully - this interview snippet was the first thing I thought of

Well I’ve spent the whole of #NorEng drawing the three English lions on a tote bag, time well spent even if we don’t win

I had a strange but nice day out. I took a friend who’s really into cars to a charity supercar event that happened to be at my old school (finished 2002), and I bumped into one of my best friends from the time who also lived on the grounds, and also saw his dad who retired but was a teacher.

20 years old today and its bittersweet, cinematic perspective of the UK dance music scene is still as hard-hitting as it ever was.

The Beach is a crap film, but call it rose-tinted glasses, I'm fond of it. The shimmering images, the pulsating soundtrack (which has remained an all-time favourite for decades since I first saw it), the summery vibes, the late 90s and early 2000s fashion and aesthetics. It's very nostalgic to me.

I watched all five episodes of Mr. Scorsese and the whole thing is a fast-paced, warm, nostalgic trip through his life and filmography with a lot of insight, but then the second half of the last episode brought me back to reality with a very frank look at Parkinson's disease and caring full-time.

I am slowly turning into an annoying hiking guy but I need this for my health. Yesterday I walked about 10 miles in the cold on steep muddy hills and today I feel fine. It's working.

Arco is v. derivative but I enjoyed it. It’s basically Ponyo + Back to the Future + Rene Laloux & Moebius + The Terminator + Terminator 2 + I, Robot + ET + Interstellar + WALL-E + that Futurama episode where Leela carves out a message on the cave walls for Fry in the future. A rip off but done well.

I'm hearing reports that Muslims may have voted in Gorton & Denton. A sad state of affairs, if true, and a sign of the dangerous radical sectarian extremism that Labour politicians, through no fault of their own, must contend with.
