Safety inspector: I found two major issues with your Death Star. For one thing, there are no railings.
Grand Moff Tarkin: We believe railings would detract from the austerity of our bottomless chasms.
Safety inspector: That brings us to my second issue.

You may, if you feel so inclined, wish me a happy birthday
You really shouldn’t have needed prompting, though. Do you not honour the gods in your household?

25 years since first watching it and Deliverance (Boorman, 1972) is still so captivating and nerve-wracking
Of course it centres around *that* horrific scene but it’s run through with tough questions around confused masculinity, man’s abusive relationship with nature and complexity of justice

Bringing up Farage being a racist won't shift any opinions on him. Pushing him on the fact his close associates take Russian money will.

I was cleaning out my attic tonight and found this. Any idea what it is? It seems like a puzzle box or something. I’m going to play around with it and see what happens. 😬

When I was in the depths of postpartum depression, I read posts on Reddit compulsively, usually from women who were as unwell as I was. It bolstered my negative thoughts. Yes, life WAS ruined. Yes, there WAS no way out of this.
I can imagine how much worse things would be if I used ChatGPT.

Some terrific jump scares and technical wizardry but I was hoping to feel more enamoured of House on Haunted Hill (Castle, 1959)
A very good film, of course, but a bit too murder mystery for my tastes

Picked teenage daughter up from her friend’s place in the small hours, and returned at the exact time an alien seeker vessel was landing behind these burnt-out houses. Should really have introduced myself and welcomed them in for a cup of tea but, shamefully, I darted into the warmth instead
