The author, dream weaver, visionary, plus artist?
Not really.
That's him. I read The Hellbound Heart which I liked the first half of. I also liked Hellraiser and Candyman. Wondering if I should read anything else he's done. I've watched the screen adaptation of 'The Creeping Moss from the Shores of Shuggoth', I liked it.

There's a lot to like about creeping moss.
Moss fact
You can encourage moss growth in your garden by mixed moss with yoghurt and daubing it in areas where ... you would like to see more of it.
I found this out in an article on 're-wilding' gardens. I haven't tried.

Moss Fact.
Excessive moss has been known to attract extraterrestrial broccoli infections. They don't tell you that in the medical books.

I bought Titanfall 2 after reading a breathless sounding review of it in Eurogamer. The reviewer said there was one 'mic drop moment', but I never got there. I don't think I got there.
It just wasn't for me in the end. I played it online but got annihilated many times.
No. It wasn't for me.

I'm assuming we'll all be out there mowing the front lawn.

Clive Barker. I read the one set inside a carpet. Was not fully convinced. I wonder if I should read more? Maybe his films are better than his books? He talks a good game. I've seen a few interviews with him. I can see me watching 'Nightbreed', maybe, at some point in the next month.

I'm not sure Nightbreed will be that great. I remember playing the game of it on my friend's Amiga 500.
Maybe it would be good to engage with the material. 1990s catharsis.

I thought I read somewhere that paper use is definitely ok, because most paper is produced from renewable sources. Using a piece of paper is just like eating some cabbage, environment wise.

I've just remembered something I watched a bit of last night: Forged in FireIt's a TV series in which four budding blacksmiths compete for the right to forge a mighty sword. Then, at the end, two of them square off (forging this sword) and the results get tested, for: - Sharpness
- Killing ability
- Strength
It's powerful content.

I've just spotted Melvazord on the Politics Live blog. Everyone wanting a piece of the action now that scubar has shown the way to hoover up those sweet sweet Likes. I'm alive, externally. Games:Rolling around an Elden Ring OTTM: I started last year with a team that consisted of 1 UK lead,1 team leader, 5 senior scientists and 2 juniors. Come September there will be 1 team leader, 2 senior scientists (one of whom will be on long term sick), 1 junior and 1 trainee. Basically we're fucked and not allowed to recruit. On the plus side, I may get the UK lead job, shame there will be no one to actually lead... End communication.

I wonder what pony tail guy is doing these days. We traded him to a different department, then they got massively fucked off with him and he left the company. Then about a year later he tried to interview for a job in another department, who asked us about him and we told them he was a horrible little turd. He didn't get the job. Is the official story. Between you and me the grass in the field out the back has an extra mysterious lump in it these days.

"I would want to see a world where we start to ultimately disband all military alliances. The issue has to be whatβs the best way of bringing about peace in the future? Is it by more alliances? Is it by more military build up?"
You can tell that Jeremy Corbyn has never played Diplomacy.
