This is the second book this year that has prompted me to do some research into the highly noxious early to mid 20th century Irish Church Union, whose 'ICU' calling cards were the bane of Church of Ireland Priests who were marginally higher up the candle than they were. ⚓️ #ChurchOfIreland

Me to @archivedelver.bsky.social look at that broom, did they shoot this in Northern Ireland or Scotland? Turns out it was Scotland. Because Northern Ireland would've had a field day if they filmed up there

You can/should read Emily Wilson's latest take on the Odyssey, but I'm logging on to convey my hairdresser's reaction. She was AGHAST that Nolan, with his million $ budget, gave Matt Damon ONLY 6 hair extensions. As a result, his hair did not blow around properly, & that ruined the film for her.

If you've not seen the Marx Brothers' other stuff this is *not* where to start -- it's the weakest of their Paramounts and also not up to the level of their earliest MGMs. But if you've seen some others it's a fun watch.

THE COCOANUTS (1929) w/ the Marx Bros. is streaming free on Wikipedia! And it's still got the Paramount logo, even though it's public domain. What a time to be alive. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Th... #FilmSky

If someone doesn't want to be talked about negatively after their death, I suggest they not assault their pregnant partners or spend multiple decades posting vile racist screeds interspersed with sexual fantasies about schoolkids while openly supporting neo-Nazi parties.

Bluesky is a "liberal bubble" because fascist chuds can't get traction without algorithmic assistance and because people here trained themselves to block "debate me" trybois the instant they roll up

Bluesky's new CEO Toni Schneider on the platform's reputation for being a liberal bubble: "Yes, we definitely want that to change. It is already changing. It certainly wasn’t designed to attract one specific group of people."

The 70mm screen in Dublin only has seats at the front for The Odyssey. So we've booked for next week. Looks like the way to get people back in the cinema is to slow burn it through socials and WoM. Because if this had been a 1 week and done thing then I probably wouldn't have gone.
