It's so good man, you'd dig it.
The missing child milk carton from The Lost Boys, signed by actor Chance Michael Corbitt (Laddie). A dripping / flayed skull lamp hanging from a ceiling. A red lit room with horror mural - where all the painted celebrities are vampires-; and in the corner is a standing up coffin. The pizza menu for Lost Souls Pizza, and one side is the comic book cover from the movie The Lost Boys; Vampires Everywhere.

Finally started to read Paul Murray's The Bee Sting. I'm right at the start, but what wonderful characterisation and compelling set up #BookSky
A yellow checkered armchair, sits beneath a window on a dark wooden floor. A brown shaggy rug is in shot, as is the corner of a dark leather sofa. A standing lamp slightly lights the scene as the world outside is still waking up. On a window sill are family pictures and a pointed star light - that isn’t switched on.

The year so far, and likely the next 11 months to come....
A mug from London's Barbican centre which is a landmark of brutalist architecture. The mug is black, and the word BRUTAL is written on it in two letters at a time, spilling down the outside of the cup. BR U T AL

Took a trip to one of my favourite places this afternoon, the Barbican. Enjoyed this - extended - Blondie photo exhibition, and picked up a print for the ridiculous bargain of £1 (frame my own). #BlondieInCamera1978. I was born in '78, so this is a really cool piece of memorabilia, & Debbie Harry ❤️
A Barbican exhibition poster in a frame - Debbie Harry is in black and white, wearing sunglasses, and is leaning her head upwards towards a studio microphone. The words Blondie In Camera 1978 are in red at the top. She looks fucking cool.

A tribute to the Black Panthers taking up pre-emptive arms should ICE show up in Philly.

Public Enemy / Apocalypse 91 [1991]
The cover of Public Enemy's Apocalypse 91 album shows the band alongside the S1W's; Professor Griff's militant black movement associated with PE. It stood for Security of the First World. Alongside are a pair of blue Sony Headphones.

Shima33 / Type Beat [2025]
Label: @mypetflamingo.bsky.social

#Vaporwave #Boombap
A battered 80s Walkman lies next to a faux home-made mix tape with felt penned writing, reading: Shima33 Type Beat. On the cover of the album are three youths with their eyes scrawled out to hide their identity. They stare down towards the camera and are all giving the middle finger.

10 damn years without Bowie, and of course the world got darker in that time.

Today I am sitting with the exhaustive tome by @nicholaspegg.bsky.social; after all we still have all the music and artistry.
The complete David Bowie contains every Bowie track and album described in terms of production and context. A black and white "thin white duke" era (?), Bowie stands on a stage clutching a microphone on the cover.

Reading this new piece of non-fiction about Trump's America. Amazing how fast this book came out about the authoritarianism in the US.
A graphic novel version of George Orwell's 1984 - by Fido Nesti.

10 years ago today.
#Bowie #Blackstar.

Happy birthday Bowie.
A black box with white flecks, carries a white outline star on it - and underneath: davidbowie.com. Beside it is a black star badge, with symbols which represent the name of David Bowie's last album "Blackstar". Released on January 8, 2016, Bowie's birthday, he was to die two days later, from cancer. He was 69.

Away for a few days, in the woodlands. Gorgeous place to read Paul Morley's new Bowie volume, Far Above The World.
A dark corner of a neutral coloured room, sits a leather tan chair, next to a dark grey tall lamp, and a floor to ceiling window - darkness outside also. On the chair, sits Paul Morley's Bowie book, Far Above The World, which has a mask-like face of a younger Bowie floating in a midnight sky.

Well, we survived 2025.
Steve Martin in The Jerk (1979), looking dishevelled with a dressing gown on over a shirt and underwear, inexplicably with his trousers down by his ankles. He is outside in a city setting. The image is black and white.

Turns out the best thing I saw all year, was at the end of the year. Can't recommend KENREX enough; a true crime story/podcast delivered with terric power and ingenuity (and menace) on the stage of @theotherpalace.bsky.social. Jack Holden should win all the awards.
The KENREX programme has an image of co-writer performer Jack Holden in a trucker cap and "smokey" horns emerging from it. A blonde woman, and grey-bearded man in glasses stand in front of a 'media board' with KENREX, The Other Place, and Aria Entertainent printed on it.

Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, or Alice In Chains.
A woman sits in darkness, only lit by bright neon paint on her body - stripes of red, green and black. She is turned away from us, legs kneeling. Above her back in neon green are the words 'The Low End Theory'. And where her bottom meets her thigh is a Tribe Called Quest logo - also on red, black and green.

Second indie documentary in a week in which the credits carry my name as a backer. But what could this one be? It's not quite ready for release but I can tell you it's fantastic ....
A bunch of names, including my own, listed as Indiegogo backers of this documentary movie.... A laptop open with work on the display sits to the left of a second monitor which has a vaporwave styled Greek male bust statue. Below that monitor is a Hawkins Palace Arcade mug, and three containers shaped like flamingos. Up top and inbetween is a Christmas card with a cartoon reindeer on it.
