Just found a folder of drawings based on in-steam prompts given out during a pal’s old Twitch streams. Without the prompts, there’s a strong “Seuss meets Cthulhu” vibe. Cheerful horror.

Huh. I can't recall ever using a phone, iPad, laptop in my dreams at all. My brain's clearly had its fill of those during waking hours

Bizarre things that happened in your assembly: every week, our Head of RE would bring out a plastic Noddy toy (to applause) and tie each week's sermon back to Noddy. Some weeks, he'd also read out lyrics from a copy of Smash Hits

I’ve never understood the whole “do you like Star Wars or Star Trek? TNG or DS9? New Dr Who or old Dr Who?” compulsion some nerdy types have. That one has to be better than the rest. They’re all good. Enjoy them all. Whack some B5 in there too. Have a bit of Farscape. More spacey things, more!

They just won several Emmys for doing the original premise properly again. You have the premise. Just. Do. The. Muppet. Show.

Absolutely delighted for the first time in a few years to get tickets to all the BFI Film Fest films I wanted including (but not limited to) Rogue Trooper, Godzilla Minus Zero, How To Make Concrete, Klara And The Sun, Wild Horse Nine and the one with Olivia Colman shagging a wicker bloke #bfi #lff

I'm in Edinburgh from <checks watch, panics> tomorrow and, as per previous years, am intending to do my (probably too) honest video diaries so why give my YouTube channel a little subscribe and watch a man physically deteriorate in real time over a month? www.youtube.com/@thatbaldyfe...

Nick says funny things with his mouth in order to provoke laugh sounds from the mouths of others. Seems fair. (Oh, and he used to make films with his mate Rich - they're here too)

Raiders of the Lost Ark came out in 1981, but was set in 1936 - a difference of 45 years. If they made the film today, the same time difference would mean it would be set in 1981.

Film you've watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: No Star Trek, Star Wars, LOTR, Marvel, Disney or Ghibli. Even without the Stars (Wars & Trek), there's still too many to choose from. Let's go with my (unsurprising) default.

I'm so sorry, I haven't been posting enough cat pics on here. I shall remedy that forthwith Clem Fandango (ridiculously fluffy) & Dinky Frinkbuster (standardly furry)

Without saying your age, what's your favourite movie that came out when you were 18? About 5 I'd pick for that year (always struggle with "pick one") but, for making me want to be a filmmaker at that age, it's this one for the "DIY" feeling it inspired (along with Reservoir Dogs and El Mariachi)

I reckon more football fans should realise that they're just nerds. Know all the old cast members? Dress up in cosplay as your best characters? Sit around in the pub speculating with your mates about the next person in charge and how you'd do it better? Neeeerrrddssss! One of us, one of us...

Apparently this wasn’t a solo game after all (Just getting BlueSky cat levels restored now that man kicks football excitement is back to standard levels)

This is an incredible ethos to apply to being collaboratively part of someone's creative vision and definitely an aim to live by ("I served in it") RIP

An excellent summary of the current state of TV by someone who created a fave series of mine (The Middleman - if you're in any way nerdy, find it and watch it) and also wrote a couple of great candid books on TV too (Shoot That One & Shoot This One)

Gonna be all over that there Edinburgh in August. If anything, it’s going to be tricky to avoid me so you might as well give in and just come see me www.edfringe.com/tickets/what...

Books Read 2026 Nos. 27-35 Seems fitting that around the Big Five Oh month that I covered off a few of the lifelong special interests (Henson, Pratchett, Who*) plus an alt history about queer cowboys herding hippos based on actual plan put forward by US Congress (sure, why not?) *weird law firm

I've brought you all here today to announce that I'm stopping performing as a character comedian... so that I can start performing as a character comedian. Please respect my privacy at this time and also pay attention to absolutely everything that I do.

What a pathetic little man. Sub-Alan Partridge self-pitying. "I've been sowing hate for 20 years, why won't anyone just love me? I'm going to America where everyone says I'm great"

MySpace. Customisable page (although some people's were unviewable), started blogging through it, made online friends who became IRL friends for the first time and even went on dates as a result of being on there. Felt genuinely social.

Trying to resist the urge as a long, long term Who fan to say, “It’s OK, just wait 16 years and it’ll be back…” (Might finally have time to complete that full rewatch from 1963 to date that I started about 5 years ago)

Depressing times as the solidifying of Petty Little Bigot Island continues Trans people are not the problem. Underfunded public services, climate change, the rise of fascism and war are things to worry about You shouldn’t give a shit about who’s having a shit

Books Read 2026 Nos. 20-26 Still only really seem to have the brain power for short books at the mo (and a re-read) Doesn’t help that I’m still trying to bring back rescues from all those book shelters they have all over the place as well. I will rehome them all…

Got sent this by a friend and my reaction to the TBR pile in the picture was "pffft, amateur hour". I will be referring myself as a tsundokist now though rather than "problem bibliomaniac"
