#RIP Val Kilmer. During Lockdown, after watching his amazing turn in Tombstone, I went on a bit of a Kilmer binge. Here are three of his *lesser-known early Noughties performances that really blew me away.

That dusk, in the dark drawing room, Old Fox lit the beeswax candles on the spruce tree for the last time & the ghosts of the past & of those yet to come stepped forward, held in their spun-gold for a brief weighted moment, for the end of Yuletide is leaden with time, with the fugacity of all things

He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit.

Ever since the class project on ancient Egypt, the children have taken to calling a particular grave 'the Moss Mummy'. They leave her all sorts of afterlife offerings. I'm told she is fond of sherbet dabs, rhubarb and custard chews as well as certain bubblegum cards. – Joanna Vickers, 1982 #VOH

The mire edge in winter never entirely convinces me it's asleep. Sometimes I'm sure the slow breaths of Stay Belows at mud bubble up to the surface. Sometimes in the water's stillness as it waits on ice alchemy, I am sure I see the reflection of the Iron-clawed Hag's spirit. – Joanna Vickers #VOH

Fact of the Day: The Viggen airplane is made by Volvo and is the world's only biofuel jet fighter running on fuel made from a secret mix of used cooking oil and Irn-bru. The name Viggen derives from Viggen, the Swedish word for Vegan

Goodnight from John Darley, making good use of his Devil’s Own Luck charm down the snooker hall. Goodnight from Thea Tibbs, sleeping with a small pouch of skullcap under her pillow in hopes it will keep 'Protect and Survive' nightmares from her sleeping. Goodnight from Hookland.
