Just found out ACMI (one of great cinema places in Melbourne) is doing a season of Stephen King films. Lots of classic King works - some I have never seen before on the big screen!

I wish it was more complicated but: Elon won. Pundits, journalists and political elites uses Twitter to gauge popular discourse and identify stories, which was workable so long as it was moderated. He seized control, completely altered its normal mode, but none of them adapted.
think that realistically I would have always been deeply, deeply worried about the rise of far-right ideas in public discourse but I truly never expected this level of blithe elite complacency, turns out I do feel worried but mostly I feel like I'm going insane, watching them do.......nothing at all
Myself I feel powerless to stop this fascist rise precisely because it feels like all our institutions are just rolling over to it.

How the hell am I only now finding out Greg Malouf passed away 10 months ago. He was a master of Middle Eastern food & had a major influence on my cooking. Damn that’s tragic.

This is a great thread on the artist that influenced the greatest Disney animated film (in my opinion) - Bambi. Without him who knows what it would have become.
Pamela Tom made a documentary detailing Wong's life called "Tyrus". It's free to watch online as part of the PBS American Masters series and I cannot recommend it enough, there are so many family photos and videos and interviews: www.youtube.com/watch?v=fF5z...

Honestly if you need something to do this weekend you can do a lot worse than reading @talkscaredpod.bsky.social new novella Good Boy. Equal parts creeping dread & beauty.
Spent the afternoon on the couch with my own goodest boy next to me reading it. As soon as I finished it I had to get up & take him for a walk by myself to meditate on the book.
A beautiful novella that doesn’t over stay its welcome but paradoxically leaves you wishing for more.

Only just found out about this great Aussie film inspired by Rear Window. There’s plenty of other Hitchcock references too from Vertigo & Psycho & more. Aside from that it’s just a great fun movie in its own right. It has a great mix of dread, comedy, & suspense & has a great dog character as well.

Who knew erasable pens were heat sensitive. My daughter drew me a vet clinic run by her favorite animal- wombats. Took it to my clinic to laminate & put up and the image vanished. Thank god I did a high-res scan beforehand.

Anthony Albanese had not one word of condemnation for the Nazis that attacked Camp Sovereign. Not one word of assurance to the Blak community at all. The difference between a terrorist attack on us and Jews is so noticeable. Australia is a racist place.

Rereading Frankenstein as I waiit for @realgdt.bsky.social version of it & I was reminded of the time I held a dinner party based on literary classics.
Cocktail - The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde
A smoked green gin & tonic made to look a bit like the famous formula that transforms the doc.
