There's apparently some discourse happening now Pillion is out in America that Harry Melling isn't handsome enough to be in that film which is clearly nonsense but I'm glad I heard about the discourse because it made me go check out his upcoming films and I'm 100% sold:
A screenshot from Wikipedia, the text reads: "Stuffed is an upcoming musical body horror romance film. It is the feature length debut of writer-director Theo Rhys, and is starring Jodie Comer and Harry Melling. Premise A man afraid of being forgotten volunteers his body to a taxidermist in the event of his death and they fall in love.[1] Cast Jodie Comer as Araminta Harry Melling as Bernie"

British nonsense part 4.
Straw bear in a bleak field waiting to burn. The straw bear being lit on fire, there is a banner walking in front of him. The bear starts to smoke, a band is playing music in front of them He is burning, the band plays on.

British nonsense part 3.
The Straw Bear and a crowd, there is a banner with the straw bear next to the actual bear. A morris dancer in a top hat with a note tucked into a bit of fabric that says Absolute Idiot with the A and I in capitals. An all female side of morris dancers dancing with hankies. A morris side dressed up as chimney sweeps dancing with sticks.

British nonsense part 2.
A border morris side dancing outside the small town library. A molly side dancing outside a coffe shop. A molly side dancing in a parade past a Wetherspoons. A morris side dressed up as Dick Van Dyke pointing at someone taking a photo.

In the fens for some British nonsense.
A sign saying the road is closed due to straw Bear festival. A man dressed as a straw bear outside a greasy spoon as part of a parade. There are a lot of people watching. A man dressed as a large chicken as part of a parade. A border morris side, I think Red Leicester, dancing in a parade.

Wearing my daughter’s hat for that peak got a MFA from Goldsmiths vibe.

I'm very glad that in 2025 the CGP Books logo is still this cool ass guy:
The CGP Books logo showing a guy in sunglasses reading a revision guide for Really Important Stuff. The logo is very crudely drawn in a lot of ways but actually it slaps.

Bought myself a keyboard to try and remember how to play piano.
A red Casio keyboard sits on my kitchen table. There are some coasters and a teething toy also on the table.

The main person who sticks in my mind was this person, don’t think they became a regular.
A screenshot from Discord. Text reads: “Wild energy from the person who came an hour late into the screening of The Turin Horse I was in, got their phone torch out to try and find their seat for 5 minutes despite the cinema being mostly empty and then chose to sit next to a stranger to spend the next 90 minutes of the screening browsing their own photos on their phone.”

I’ve long been jealous of my partner’s jumper from Punyus that is covered in fried eggs so this year for Christmas she got me my own jumper from them.
A picture of me in a mirror standing in my hallway, I am wearing a jumper covered in cartoon drawings of bread and the Japanese word for bread is written across the chest.

A poster on a wall, it reads “Poorly executed and artistically bankrupt, thinly veiled advertising posing as street art, created by an individual who's apparently devoid of any discernable talent for profit.”

Nothing says Christmas like your partner buying you a moogle who looks he should be in Alkaline Trio.
Me holding a small moogle plush, the moogle is wearing a black shirt and a white tie. He is also holding a black electric guitar. He certainly rocks.

Wonderful Christmas gift last night, it’s great when your friends just get your vibe.
A pewter badge of an ape mixing medicine, he is urinating into it from his big ape willy. There is a piece of paper explaining this and how it is most likely anti doctor propaganda from the medieval church.
