In the first story in From Beyond the Grave, there's a short sequence illustrating the passage of time as new tenants take on a flat, and Tony Curtis gets to design / dress three additional sets. And we go teak - rosewood - chrome...
Watching another film from a list of ‘under appreciated Christmas movies’ that I saw floating around on here.
It is proper dogshit.
Like two of the other films I’ve watched from the same list.
Sometimes things are just plain shit, and not ‘neglected’.

Judging by everything Facebook and Meta keep trying to show me, it’ll be impossible to go for a walk outside without having to endure people playing the Cor Anglais to squirrels. The Sousaphone to beavers. The Piccolo to terrapins. The Contra Bassoon to hares.

After counting to 10 continually for well over 24 hours, I called Mother to try and explain how handy it would be for her to keep me ‘in the loop’, so I don’t have surprises dropped in my lap at the last minute.
How did that go?
She told me about her new washing line for half an hour.

Advertisers really leaning into the current environment of ‘awfulness’ here. Lots of folksy middle America bollocks where a guy strolls along “I’m a hardworking man, and just because I don’t like people of colour or homosexualists, that doesn’t mean I can’t appreciate a reliable phone service and..”

In the last week, someone posted a link to a blog where a chap had listened to nearly 40 different recordings of Holst’s ‘The Planets’. I wish I’d saved / pinned it. Anyway, he said Charles Dutoit’s arrangement won out, citing just how aggressive ‘Mars’ was.
Just listened.
My ears, they bleed.

Good lord. Meta is going to be at the earth’s core soon with their constant lowering the bar of usability / functionality across their platform.
Opened FB and it was just a sea of notifications for pointless crap. Stuff I didn’t even recognise. People I didn’t know.
Closed it. Fuck that noise.

To improve my wafer thin grip on sanity today, I updated the OS on my Mac and of course the Wacom is all fucked up now.
I’ll update the drivers, for the all the fucking good that’ll do.

My dad came back from town with an album that was sort of loosely attached to the Olympics and had a frankly barmy collection of tracks on it.
