Trip to the cinema to see Sinners. The racial politics of vampires: discuss. Could have done with a script editor but it was cracking fun, music editing was fantastic and of course marvellous costume design.
I endorse this message (it may actually reduce driving because people would feel like they had more control on foot/on a bike)
I saw it! Awful thing is I wasn’t even surprised!
A19 remains full of arseholes
Verdi’s Requiem in York Minster courtesy of York Music Society. Absolutely fantastic performance in stunning surroundings. The sound from the choir filled the whole enormous space. No photos I’m afraid.
The Salt Path. Our household is a bit in love with both Gillian Anderson and Jason Isaacs. Beautifully shot story of a couple who lose everything and find themselves homeless and set out to walk the South West Coast Path. Anderson in particular is amazing - resigned, heartbroken, determined.
Bank holiday cinema trip to see The Phoenician Scheme. Extremely Wes Anderson film by Wes Anderson. Thoroughly enjoyed everything about it. Help yourself to a hand grenade.
Bit of a backlog. Trip in May to the Harold Pinter Theatre to see Giant. Really enjoyed this exploration of when criticism of Israel becomes anti-semitism. Thanks to @naomialderman.bsky.social for posting about it’s return as I’d missed the first run.
Men are too emotional for high stakes jobs really

If there’s a strategy, you’re a social media manager and not a poster
I think they booted out the one that went full fash (still Tory tho)
Delegate. Delegate. Delegate…
That’s another reason for using fibrinogen concentrate then!
Blood product management is different. Early use of cryo/fib concentrate vs 1:1:1. Less (no?) role for FFP in obs
Your greater feeling of familiarity in one area should not demean it as a subspecialty
Oh and the management of massive haemorrhage in trauma is not the same as in obstetrics so I’m not sure that comparison flies
I’m immensely amused at your stance that obstetrics isn’t special but paeds is. I was trained to do paeds as well.

the fundamental disconnect between the manosphere and reality is that they are incapable of understanding that this is - according to every woman I’ve ever met - the sexiest thing a man has ever done
eight years ago today we all watched the glory of zendaya falling madly in love with tom holland and the internet was never the same
(I do not feel able to comment on costume design)
Another bank holiday weekend trip to the cinema, this time to see Alex Garland/Ray Mendoza’s Warfare. Considering it is told entirely from the point of view of the soldiers I felt it very successfully conveyed the utter disastrous folly of the second Iraq war. Very gory (accurately so).

Trip to York on a gloriously sunny day to see Gary Oldman in Krapp’s Last Tape. Beckett plays are not exactly cheery are they? Also the A19 is full of absolute arsehole drivers.
Another trip to Middlesbrough Town Hall for a farewell concert - musical director John Forsyth has retired. Cleveland Philharmonic Choir for Ritter’s Magnificat, Vaughan Williams’ Serenade to Music and Mozart’s Requiem. Brilliant night with fantastic performances.
We know. That’s why we live off takeaways.
