A couple of years ago I did a series of drawings of Edinburgh neighbourhoods.

I know now that I’m not a big fan of drawing architecture, so I won’t be doing more, but these are a nice reminder of my early days in illustration.

This is Circus Lane, the most photographed street in Edinburgh.

This week on @podcastlikeits The 1990s I started a brand new miniseries on Tim Burton’s 90s Halloween films w/ Katie McGrath & Tom Mison by talking Edward Scissorhands! We talk Burton’s personal connection to the film, Johnny & Winona’s infamous relationship and debate what makes a Halloween movie 🎃

At least as a freelancer, I can enjoy more of my money now since you won’t be withhold--

You need me to complete a W-2?

You gently run your hand through the rack. You can feel it—pure cotton, rich wool, Irish linen. The plump buttonholes are handsewn; the buttons attached with a firm shank. You flip the price tag over. It's affordable

You buy the jacket and go home, which is only 15 mins away. Your apt is $600/month

KPop Demon Hunters is a brilliant film, but it’s also lovely seeing its voice actors, songwriters, and singers become stars after years of struggling in the industry
