Me, a trans egg in 1995: I wish I could magically transform into Sean Young like in "Dr Jekyll and Ms Hyde" (currently in theatres)

Me, a nonbinary femme in 2025: I wish I could magically transform into the middle thing from the "Dr Jekyll and Ms Hyde" poster with the amazing boggly eyes

Tim Daly animorphs into Sean Young on the poster for "Dr Jekyll and Ms Hyde" (1995) and the middle phase of the animorph is a cross between Garry Shandling and Marty Feldman. Garty Feldling.

Or perhaps a little mouse comedically interrupting your concerto performance

Tom and Jerry in "The Cat Concerto" (1947)

Correct! And next year I believe I’m going to be able to upgrade the incredible Godard film history plundering essay series “Histoire(s) du Cinéma” which I’m very excited about

Erm... so this just happened

We were talking about Godard's "Alphaville" and then 1 minute ago I sold my DVD copy of Godard's "Alphaville" (because I now have a Blu-Ray copy of Godard's "Alphaville")

I think we may have rambled to each other about those ideas at Spike a few years back...

Audiences should be allowed not to understand things. It's one of my favourite sensations as a viewer/listener/reader

Have you seen Werner Herzog's "The Wild Blue Yonder"?

It's a monologue by Brad Dourif (Chucky himself) as an alien talking about his homeworld, which is portrayed by underwater antarctic footage filmed by experimental guitarist/research diver Henry Kaiser.

All 4 wheels squarely in my wheelhouse

Big fan of “Alphaville.” Godard should have done more low budget cerebral sci-fi

I've lived on a couple of busy roads, but always with bedroom on the road side and living room on the away side.

I'm a good sleeper and can happily dream my way through traffic noise, but I would be infuriated if there were lorries and bikes interrupting a film or some music

1) I love the tall "a" and "t" in this wonky font

2) Is this about Godard's "Alphaville" or some other Lemmy Caution adventure?

My band making a complicated music video earlier this year. Special effects!

A 4-piece band on a tiny wooden stage, playing bass, drums, guitar and saxophone, dressed in many colours.

The same 4-piece band on the same tiny stage, but now they're all in head-to-toe morph suits

is it not kind of mad that we are all about to be destroyed because of men's inability to create fulfilling inner worlds.

What if, instead of the dance music producers DNA, it was the late-70s no-wave band DNA with Arto Lindsay and Ikue Mori?

Come to my gig tonight in Bristol!

I'm on first, at about 19:30.

I have basically written a whole new coming-of-age musical with a live band and teenage performers. We've put in a lot of work!

I’m the mortician in Richard Scarry’s Busytown. I’m a dog who wears a baseball hat that says “who let ME out”. I drive a dried up footlong meatball sub that’s also a hearse every day.

Sweet

My exotic goop is filled with big sugar crystals
To scrub away my imperfections,
My bumps and lumps and dead skin,
All the things that make me ugly.

I spend a long
Long
Long time scrubbing.
And the longer I scrub
The stranger my hands feel,
Like a stranger's hands.
All pins and needles,
All sensation but no feeling.
And the skin under them,
No matter how much or little I scrub,
Feels imperfect,
Lumpy, bumpy,
Ugly.

Anyway,
I think a lot of things are like that.
