Re-re-run of currently watching

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Ditto Harry & Meghan. Hilarious the mindless drivel it has extracted from the tabloids. Probably because it says they're a bunch of racist, misogynistic liars. More importantly, that it says it on a platform that will reach their readers instead of being echo-boxed by social media algorithms. Whatever anyone's opinion of the monarchy or M & H, the show is worth it just for that.

Anyhoo, now that the docusoap is out of the way it's back to American Horror Story Season 10. The standard cast is joined by Macauley Culkin! :rofl:

i could give so little a f**k about the Royals that i couldnt force my notoriously short attention span through 3 episodes. 1 maybe... but probably not.

Based on a recommendation, I've started watching "Ancient Apocalypse" (with Graham Hancock). Oh dear oh dear oh dear. I don't know if anyone is familiar with the phrase "Gish gallop"...

I recently watched The Peripheral. I've read the book too, but can't say I remembered that much. I really enjoyed the adaptation though, until the last episode where they ignored (or simply forgot) the metaphysics of the premise and... well, I'll still watch season 2, but I can't be the only one who thought it suddenly became incoherent.

Blasting through this at the moment. It's a riot.
Everybody in it is thoroughly unpleasant.

Of the Oscar season films, this one is my favorite by a slim and narrow thread.
(Aronofsky's new film THE WHALE runs the tight second)

Beneth the chaos, CGI, blinking lights, and colors there is a meaning without that much of pathos.
Very good movie.

The second season is out now. Not quite as good as the first but worth a watch. Unfortunately to stream it you need to either be in Australia or pretend to be in Australia using a VPN . However its easy to get from a torrent site.
