Ryan Meade @ryano.bsky.social · 25/09/2026This Sky Arts David Bowie documentary has really done its research: "Bowie's acting career was always an eclectic collection, from family fare such as Labyrinth and MERRY CHRISTMAS MR LAWRENCE to Nicolas Roeg's The Man Who Fell to Earth" (emphasis added) 000

Is it St Swithin's Day already?" - "Pleasure doing business with you, chummmmmmmmmmmP" - "Way to breathe, no-breath" - "I am familiar with the works of Pablo Neruda" - "I hope the irony's not lost on you, Simpson" (Three of these are from the same episode) 000
Ryan Meade @ryano.bsky.social · 21/08/2026There are letters circulating today which are unhinged for various reasons but which also reflect a broader pernicious trend of capitalising random Nouns to emphasise their Importance. 100
Ryan Meade @ryano.bsky.social · 20/08/2026Saad's view (as expressed in the second screenshot) is that it is childishly naive to think that cultural conflicts can be resolved other than by one side eliminating or expelling the other. 000
Ryan Meade @ryano.bsky.social · 18/08/2026Is there an online forum or support group I can join for people driven to madness by advertising creative choices? I shouldn't care about that fada on "So" but I do. 7183

Ryan Meade @ryano.bsky.social · 01/08/2026The casting of young Henry and young Tommy in Goodfellas is miraculous. I could swear I'm looking at Ray Liotta and Joe Pesci as kids. 100
Ryan Meade @ryano.bsky.social · 28/07/2026Embarrassingly there is a Taschen book "On NFTs", still openly on sale in the gift shop of at least one respected art museum (in this case the Louisiana in Denmark). 240
Ryan Meade @ryano.bsky.social · 25/07/2026Find out in my forthcoming book-length essay on correspondences between The Return and Joyce's Ulysses (18 episodes each - coincidence?) 000
Ryan Meade @ryano.bsky.social · 16/07/2026I note the headline and framing which implies she's a minority voice along the lines of a climate change sceptic when in fact she's pretty much aligned with the expert consensus on these issues. 112

Ryan Meade @ryano.bsky.social · 30/06/2026The best TV shows of the past 10 years were Twin Peaks The Return and Andor but I know practically nobody in real life who has watched them. Thus I am driven into the arms of The Podcasters. 010
Ryan Meade @ryano.bsky.social · 28/06/2026Paul Schofield has like 4 lines in this scene and barely moves but to my mind he acts everybody else off the screen.

Ryan Meade @ryano.bsky.social · 30/04/2026I sometimes wonder why the high gravity time dilation future war gimmick in Halo Jones has never been done on film/TV. Even if the science doesn't strictly work, it's such a cool concept. @2000ad.bsky.social 010

Ryan Meade @ryano.bsky.social · 10/04/2026It doesn't say "novel" so I'm going to have to go with The Best of Myles. The Third Policeman the funniest novel by a country mile and a very honourable mention for Ulysses. 020
