Goosing is like kancho, just less pokey and more grabby. Hope that helps

Like the Forsyth stuff, my first watch was blu with the lights down low. 2015 I think.

spoilers here:

The setting's gorgeous, the mindscape's terrifying. And like a lot of horror, you put the plot into six words and get comedy: man crosses country to get killed 😄

Started seeing Forsyth's other films for the first time recently, after decades of Gregory's Girl fandom. Loved the sink and the ice cream so that's next!

Paula Doress-Worters, who helped break the silence on postpartum depression, dies at 87 She co-wrote “Our Bodies, Ourselves,” a 1970s touchstone conceived by and for women. The book offered information about abortion, pregnancy and postpartum life.

Paula Doress-Worters, who died Feb. 21, had given birth in late 1966, at a time when postpartum depression — experienced by an estimated 1 in 8 women after childbirth — hardly had a name.

“They said, ‘It’s just baby blues, you’ll get over it.’”

Life online feels like marching through a plastic apocalypse where any nice interactions are necessarily shouted exchanges as we're buffeted by the grimy confetti of an exploding civilisation.

The first-ever starfield opening was such a big bang I was grateful for the mellow opening shot. I also love how it re-introduces its WHoniverse and the tent gag is good too. ISTR I got up in dear Chris' tweets to say so, after his naughty commentary

The tapas episodes were great but bring on the fajitas 😀

Malorie Blackman on Noughts & Crosses at 25: ‘It’s even more relevant today’ Her YA classic was inspired by racism in 1990s Britain. A quarter of a century later, she talks about success, death threats and getting shoutouts from Tinie Tempah and Stormzy

I remember doing school events and students would ask if I’d ever met anyone famous. I’d say, “Like who?” And they’d all yell “Malorie Blackman!!” I’d say yes and was cool for the rest of the day.

Just when it felt like spring was actually underway, winter returned yesterday. Though with no wind it was T-shirt weather.
Stunning day in the Scottish Borders.

Maybe this was a stage show? Maybe only once? Or planned and never performed? The guy was a real stage magician but there seems to be nothing online to indicate this show ever happened...

I've not really gamed since what, Doom? But I'd play the heck out of Seamonkey Sims. Having watched loads of The Sims vicariously, it's really just this with humans

A dedicated follower of fashion, was David Bowie. I can't recall seeing that perm before! Incidentally, Siouxsie namechecks this, in the majestic spacegoth anthem 'Pluto Drive'

Oh is that her. Copy of Paradoxia on the bookshelf with a very bold font I see all the time. "I got some way through it but it was too wanky" I'm told
