So I did this. Occupational therapy aiding in my recovery from actually watching tonight's film. #bmoviemaniacs

OMG. That's one of the films I associate with this one as an example of unbearable 1960s films that somehow couldn't have been made in any other decade. I have imagined them as part of a triple feature, finishing with Angel, Angel, Down We Go. #BMovieManiacs

OK, that movie makes *everything* we watched during #SeptAgar look like the collected works of Jean Renoir by comparison. #BMovieManiacs

Now we, like cabaret audience, can clap because *it's finally over*. #bmoviemaniacs

I like how all the dancers are barely even trying to do the same moves. #BMovieManiacs

hollye_h @hollyeh13.bsky.social · 5h

Oh no! I'm so sorry we didn't see you! #bmoviemaniacs

This audience is extremely tolerant and very easily entertained. #bmoviemaniacs

I remembered that this movie was painfully sluggish. I forgot that's because it's basically a museum of bad choreography. #BMovieManiacs

I'm calling it -- the wooden (papier mache? plaster?) cat on the back of the automated broomstick is my favorite character. #bmoviemaniacs

When you get so many thrills thrown at you so fast, that can happen. #bmoviemaniacs

Very bad movies almost always include a lot of footage of people walking to and from parked cars. #BMovieManiacs

I saw this, laughed, changed screens and now I can't find it again or I would credit it fully: Someone described Kid Rock, who was apparently attempting to opine on something tonight, as being "the human equivalent of an above-ground pool."

Perfect.

According to Wikipedia, at least four cast members used aliases. So, there's that #BMovieManiacs

This one is something of a challenge to get through, iirc. And that's coming from someone who *enjoyed* #SeptAgar. #bmoviemaniacs

Pete Hegseth announced an agreement today to build a Qatari Emiri Air Force facility at a U.S. Air Force Base in Idaho.

Reminder: Earlier this year, the Trump admin accepted a Boeing 747 jet as a gift from the Qatari royal family.

Inspired painter Simone Martini envisions Virgil as inspired poet, 1336. Painted for his pal Petrarch while they were both in Avignon, and how cool is that? Today was Martini's day.

Hi, folks! Any other person in love with languages out there? Which language are you learning at the moment? I'm currently learning Dutch. I did learn German in the past, but nowadays I stick to Dutch. Deep inside, I dream about learning Thai, Chinese and Korean. But I've got no time, sadly.
