My favourite Blu-ray bonus feature format is Kim Newman in a waistcoat, leaning on a patchwork quilt, in his relatably cluttered house, monologuing at the camera while surrounded by books he wants to promote.

🏊‍♀️The women who swim at Kenwood Ladies Pond have already made their decision.

In 2024, almost 900 members voted to keep their trans-inclusive policy - a policy that has worked peacefully since 2019.

Now, a small campaign group is seeking to overturn that democratic decision through the courts.

If anyone wants a great, exciting journey, can I recommend driving up to Aberdeen in the dark. The mist has been falling so low and think in the evening that everything has taken the look of a particularly eerie ghost story.

This is also back when photos cost like $15 apiece. We have always been like this.
Book from 1911 showing that taking photos of cats and furnishing them with an amusing caption is far from being a phenomenon born with the internet. More here: https://publicdomainreview.org/collection/kittens-and-cats-a-first-reader-1911-cats-and-captions-before-the-internet-age #NationalCatDay

Why haven’t I got mince pies at work yet?

It’s an injustice that I shouldn’t have to stand for.

If anyone would like a sensuously queer male romance, with questions of family, identity and breaking free from expectation, then Children of Artifice is on audio, read by the fabulous Joe Jameson.

Described as 'highly visual, totally absorbing and truly original'.

Any reasonable brain would have let me sleep in this morning.

Not this one.

Apparently half 5 is the time it wanted me to wake up and start meticulously working through all the little things currently bothering me.
