Talking pro wrestling, miniature painting/gaming and maybe some other things.
I've had a lot of great first time watches this year as part of my 70s project, but the absolute highlight was 'Ivan Vasilievich Changes His Profession'.

If you've got a spare 20 minutes this evening, this is the best Czechoslovakian stop-motion short film about the repression of art under a totalitarian state that you're likely to see.
Also, it's fucking hilarious.

It's time for the spooky kids to take their pumpkins and cobwebs and retreat into their graveyards for another year.
It's time for the private eyes to step out of the shadows and the femme fatales to light up their cigarettes
Happy #noirvember everyone!

You may have noticed it's Halloween. With that in mind, here are some of my favourite spooky models I've painted the last couple of years. Also, the man you call when you need to fight the spooky things. 👻

This was a fun list to create.
I'm not a huge horror guy, so some of these are more horror-adjacent. Also, didn't include any giallo as that would dominate the list!

Guys, I just saw a funny post by a mutual, and started writing a reply before realising it was Joke Improver behaviour and I should cut that shit out.
Hope you're proud of me. I've really grown as a person.
