That'd be epic

Yes!

Ring The Bells book 5 of The Stranger Times series is out today!! Available everywhere.
Well, not newsagents.
Or hairdressers.
Almost no nail saloons.
Come to think of it - book shops. Really mainly available in book shops.

Fascinating story about a “ghost” concept car that was designed in 1939 but possibly/maybe/probably not actually built at the time, and only discovered when the sketches were found in a barn decades later.

“The Dusenberg Coupe Simone”

This is from The Man Who Laughs, btw. It is a haunting masterpiece. And you should seek it out and watch it.

Diane Darcy @dianedarcy.bsky.social · 2d

I don’t know why, but there’s something magical about watching silent movies from the 1920s. It’s a lost art in which the story is conveyed largely through the acting rather than dialogue.

How the Email Found Me @howtheemailfoundme.bsky.social · 2d

The email has found me arguing with Liminal Jim of Threshold Construction Ltd. I don’t care how multiversal he wants the kitchen, that’s a load-bearing dimension and we’re not knocking through it.

Me and my anxieties will be standing in attendance on the sidewalk next Tuesday at Gallery 1619 in Chicago. Stroll on by for some small awkward conversations and some even smaller awkward drawings.

Anyone in Chicago?
Go find this little exhibition!

The Benefits of Walking Away

1. Makes bad things disappear quickly
2. Gives everyone optimal view of your back
3. Answers guestion, "I wonder what would happen if I just walked away"

I love those so much!
They dry really nicely too. Used to live in a place where they were plentiful. Alongside Death Trumpets and a lot of Boletus.
I miss going hunting for them.

I have never seen the actual episode, this being the later revival series. But, boy, it's tragic. And that short expression of Bruce's of pity, seeing the struggle in Robin, a little boy in mental torment, is rough!

Caracan @caracan.bsky.social · 7d

And this, everybody, is why we love this man.

In an age of convenience and digitisation he values crafts people for their skill and knowledge. Real, tangible artisanship.

So expressive!
And the design so tight!

We lost one of the greats.
A human who made a difference. Infinitely more so than those toddlers in power ever will achieve.

Very sorry to read of the passing of Dame Jane Goodall, who was - among many, many other things - every bit the interviewee you might have hoped she would be. This was recorded in 2018, and was a total delight. monocle.com/radio/shows/...
