LOVING this show for Jimmy Yang & Chloe Bennett, spoofing US cop shows and skewering of ethnic character tropes and stereotypes in the process. It’s clever, funny and a little Wing Chun-ny.
No, really, it has Wing Chun in it…

Whilst cleaning your kitchen after dinner, if there is a wet spot/puddle on your counter, you WILL put your phone in it. You could set your phone anywhere else, but no. Gotta go in the bin juice.

I really enjoy the Chris Evans show on @VirginRadioUK but can’t stomach the Elon Musk love-ins anymore.

If we ACTUALLY get snow next week I will forgive the universe for sending an angry wasp to attack me this morning. If it happens, if there is a light dusting, I will consider us even.
‘Us’ meaning me and the universe obvs. Not me and the wasp, for his head is now his ass.

My love for #Yellowstone has been steadily slipping since season 4 when it turned semi-documentary. But the key cast now all talking like ten-gallon Shakespeares might be the fence my horse just can’t jump. Even Teeter sounds bad now, and that was impossible!

Pro tip: Don Cheadle is NOT Samuel L. Jackson.

When you properly come over to Bluesky and realise all the #Screenwriter luvvies are already here. It’s like a warm hug where the other person isn’t hugging nor even seeing you. It’s a ghost hug. I’m haunting people. Shit, that escalated FAST!

Bluesky is officially “open” now (no more invites). So just a reminder to not engage with trolls and bad actors, there is no algorithm here to promote or spread them, replying to them is what puts them on everybody’s timelines. So block and give no oxygen.

So, my theory for how the finale of #AgathaAllAlong will resolve:
S
P
O
I
L
E
R
Y (kinda)
Given Agatha’s origin in killing her mother who was trying to kill her, I think Agatha will end up saving Teen who is trying to save her. (1/4)

As a palette cleanser to awfulness, here is a beautiful #Irishpub called The Long Hall in Dublin. Its interior has remained the same since 1881.

Yet again, despite being a former bartender with an iron stomach for snot, poo, vom and gore, my son simply WIGGLES his wobbly tooth in front of me and it is LIGHTS OUT for Daddy. Madness.

I have quite a few streaming services available to me, but none of them have The Goonies or Monster Squad available to stream right now.

Saw #TheCreator last night: thoroughly enjoyed it. It’s not perfect - timescales and editing are a choppy, but in terms of spectacle it is GORGEOUS small-p political sci-fi. The central message will take some thinking on, but ❤️is at its core. I rushed home to see my kids after.
