Reckon the constant barrage of fascists, con artists, porno phishing, far right misinfomation & anti-semitism and suchlike has finally got to the point where it outweighs the fun stuff, so I'm sacking this place off. Not bothering with an account elsewhere - email me if you like.

Sleepless last night, I came across this wonderful piece of writing about Thomas Hardy's heart, which was (apparently) eaten by the cat while awaiting burial after his death. Recommended if you need cheering up this morning (as we all do). westdorsetconfidential.wordpress.com/2012/10/16/ard…

I didn't really know much of David Soul's work other than Silver Lady til recently, but I watched his short-lived 1982 Casablanca prequel TV series before Christmas and NGL it slams (he plays Rick). Check it out if you can track it down.

RIP anyway.

!! this looks amazing

this rips

Best thing I saw over Christmas, and probably this year, was Jill, Uncredited - a meditative and moving short film about Jill Goldston, the most prolific extra in movie history. You should seek it out for sure (it's streaming on Mubi atm)

Latter-day The Fall were always a live favourite of mine, but I never bothered with the albums - acquired a copy of this recently though and it fucking rips! As well as everything else, MES really understood the dynamics of a rock song didn't he?

Just dug this out for watching at the weekend - we've been reading the book and will be finished Saturday so planning watching the whole thing Sunday...

It's my birthday today, so my youngest has made a card.

The only thing that could stop Fairytale of New York being xmas number one this year is Mariah dying in the next three weeks

Who else is coming to Sunderland tonight? Looking forward to seeing Sunak & Hunt going wild down the front at Sly & the Damily Drone 😎

They played this choral piece - written to mark the death of JFK 60 years ago today - on the radio this morning and it absolutely rips.
