19 Crimes wines has going spooky for #Halloween, and this Karloff Frankenstein label was too good to just go in the recycling... So with some lights added, it's now October decor!

Refs to Hexham Heads always need reposting

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

THE HEXHAM HEADS: In 1976, BBC early evening magazine show Nationwide aired a segment about a real-life folk horror story. Stone heads unearthed from a garden, paranormal activity and werewolves abound in this notorious report, thought lost until 2024...

No speech from Nigel Farage expressing disgust and inciting riots - it seems he's as interested in 'protecting women and girls' from white sex abusers as his alleged violent rapist friend Andrew Tate ... meme via Reform Sunderland Watch

We really are in the dumbest timeline right now..

Cocked up my antidepressants prescription and ran out by mistake. Took about nine days to get the mads. By day 5 I was in a constant state of apoplectic, apocalyptic bone deep rage. My head felt like a pressure cooker. Better now- the drugs DO work. Note to self- do not let this happen again 🤯

This is what you get when you try to channel the entire output of the National Power Complex through one transistor without reversing the polarity.

Avg GDP growth 1945-79: 2.8% Since then: 1.6% And this apparently "broken, economically stagnant" basket case kept its AAA status right through the Winter of Discontent We lost it under Cameron, and it fell again under May, then Johnson, and then Truss: i.e. the whole time Clarke was in govt

"The Bank of England was set up by Tony Blair" It's easy to forget that Tony Blair had been in power since 1694 when the Bank of England was founded. Good job Brain of Britain Liz Truss is here to remind us.

On this day in 1970, Scooby Doo, Where Are You! began airing on BBC1 (it debuted on the CBS network in America just over a year earlier - on the 13th of September 1969).

Angela Rayner, "Nigel Farage's sugar daddies made their money in crypto, but there's nothing cryptic about their motives... A Reform gov will act in their interest, not the public's interest" "If Farage will do you a cameo for £70, just ask yourself what he'd do for £70 million"

Notice how often we say this and not a single person has been sued? Hmm..

Those iconic L.A. steps now (with a bit of then). LAUREL AND HARDY THE MUSIC BOX (1932)

Things I was frightened of as a child: 1. The dark 2. The London underground. 3. School dinner ladies. Huge, unsympathetic women who looked like Oseidons (Dr who, look them up) and made you eat "tubes" and tapioca 4. The downstairs toilet in the church hall. Like something from HP Lovecraft
