I was surprised at how few KR films I'd seen before 2025 - ended up watching six of them

It's so fun and informative to try to copy a work of art you enjoy, in the same medium, a different one, whatever. I wish everyone who does not identify as an artist would try this without concern for "being good." or doing it "right."

☀️ It’s gonna be a hot few days in Perth!

💧If it’s hot where you are too, please leave out cool, fresh water for the wildlife in your garden.

Like this mumma roo in our garden yesterday, the birds, animals and inverts will all be very grateful for it!

The new Kelly Reichardt film, The Mastermind, opened in Australia this week - everywhere except Western Australia. It's hard for me to not take this personally.

Am I the only one who finds pictures of meat being handled by people wearing black gloves kind of gross?

BTW, it's not the meat I find gross - it's the gloves.

According to my wide open eyes, green tea contains a non-negligible amount of caffeine - who knew?

ninety-nine point nine percent of the time tomato sauce is an unwelcome addition to any plate - except when having a meat pie, when it is absolutely essential

a friend who is cleverer than me suggested that due to the dark side of the force vibes a better caption would be "Revenge of the Seats" - genius

Thanks so much for reviewing this. Had no idea it existed till I saw your review and it is very very much my cup of tea.

Discover a singer on Wednesday. Go to their show on Thursday. Get blown away.

That's how I got into Ruby Gill. Excellent stage presence - full of humour and stillness.

At my first pub show in ages. In the only guy without a moustache. Haircuts have a heavy Mr Collin’s in the 2005 Pride and Prejudice energy.

Falling in love with a new band is so nice. My latest is Clairaudience. A bit like a less pretentious Go Betweens (it's the Robert Forster-ish voice) at times and nothing like them at others.
