Few people will understand how cool this is but not one but TWO of the people who were on Lodge 49 are following me on instagram! Never seen it? Go watch!

Sure, Bond movies were a feminist nightmare, but I took my childhood role models where I could get them. Jane Seymour was the most beautiful woman I’d ever seen and Solitaire had *powers*. #stainedglass

Yes. Using a computer now feels like this at all times.

Sometimes we listen to Top of the Pops on YouTube and this is the first one we’ve seen hosted by Jimmy Saville. Featuring a performance of My Sharona. Oof. This is the world we grew up in.

For some low-stakes fun I made this model kit. It’s supposed to have a working light but I neglected to test it before completion 😅

We went to this 1600s church for the stained glass but the tombstone floor got me!

My one remaining sewing machine croaked during the journey across the pond, but tomorrow I’m getting a new (to me) one. Not new, never new! But top of the line in 1985 or so. Despite its age it’s still more than I’ve ever spent on a sewing machine. #bernina

My favorite Sam Neil fact will always be that he designed a future Australian flag that replaces the union jack with the aboriginal flag for Event Horizon and insisted the film use it.

Ah shit, Gerry Conway died. He created the punisher & was very outspoken in saying "if you're a cop who wears a punisher logo, frank castle fucking HATES you." He said the punisher only existed because of a fatally flawed system, & so those most harmed by that system have more claim to the symbol:

Doing research for a project and I found this: digital.library.cornell.edu/collections/... Now I'm stuck in a nostalgia hole! I didn't know Aaron Cometbus gave a collection to Cornell. #bayarea #cometbus #sanfrancisco #punk

I didn’t realize you could upload long-ass videos here. Update on how it’s been moving to the Netherlands. Sorry about the audio, no captions. I know how lucky I am to be able to do this!!

On my hols and went to Mass in Fishguard today. A wonderful surprise to see this small, exquisite window depicting St. Thérèse of Lisieux by #HarryClarke studios (1929) in the Church of the Holy Name R.C. #StainedGlassSunday

A minute after this picture was taken it occurred to me that living in Europe now makes up for having my 50th in lockdown. Not really related, but that’s my brain. Hope this lasts!

This is gonna sound weird but there is magic in Led Zeppelin’s music and I’m glad they got debauched enough to appeal to the old gods so I don’t have to.

First week in NL done. This place is alternately storybook quaint, and modern. We live on a brick-paved street that’s like a little village with kids walking home from school, cats sunning themselves, and so many birds. A few blocks away are trams, cars, and insanely fast bike lanes.

Mid-sleep insomnia used to mean a visit with what used to be called British Twitter (comedians!). Now it’s you people I miss and the end of the American experiment.

First proper morning in the Netherlands at a café in Schiphol station. I know I’m an American try-hard but a man just exchanged a smile with me and I’m thrilled! They don’t really do that here. Also there is a lovely loud British girl brazenly doing her makeup at the communal table.
