Day 78 - Lathered in Beef (I posted this on the correct day but for some reason it didnt work so annoyingly it has to ruin the order)

Lathered in beef, I bathe in the sun protected from its malevolent attacks. A healthy cream, unlike the rest of them. If smelling of beef fat is what it takes then I guess that's what must be done. It's scent is noticeable though. My brother pointed out whether a vegan/vegetarian would be able to touch me. Interesting. 

As soon as my hangover has mostly abated my stomach has churned into cramp. Bloody Churnups. There's always something. Discomfort and beefy. But it's a lovely day.

Hacking a Few Onions

I think the abundance of AI articles & Top 10s at the death end of this blog shows my waning enthusiasm for the project. Part of the initial idea was to inspire myself. I'm not sure what for. But since completing Plunge something is missing. So, cutting a slightly desperate figure, I'm back (but not daily).  Do I try and write more sketches? I looked over some notes but either I'm not funny anymore or I no longer find things as funny. "Oh has the world changed or have I changed?" What about opinion pieces? I still have opinions. Who remembers opinions?! Steak and opinions. Pickled opinions. Opinions written down looks a bit like onions. Have I still got it? Opinions? Onions?! Ok maybe I've still got it after all.  Right then. Opinions... Is it hack to criticise woke culture? It seems both tired yet unresolved to me. Is it hack to argue corporation tax should be higher to achieve a fairer allocation of resources? It seems both tired yet unresolved to me. Is...

Barbie (2023) - Letterboxd Review

To what degree are you able to have an opinion on something which isn't aimed at you?  First and foremost I enjoyed Barbie; I thought it was entertaining from start to finish, consistently funny and had a perfect set production. Wes Anderson could learn a lesson from Barbie in managing to both create a visually striking semi-cartoonish vibrant world AND have an entertaining plot. It was probably the most I've laughed at a film in the cinema since 'The Disaster Artist' in 2017 (maybe 'Long Shot' in 2019). I also agree with the central message of Barbie to such an extent that I didn't bother raising my minor quibbles in the discussion during the walk-home (they weren't strong enough to outweigh my overall consensus with the film, which for my own safety, I will keep reinforcing). I've saved critiques for here, where nobody can instil fear by glaring with tired exasperation as I, a man, meekly offer my perspective in a state of significant stress and pa...

Safe (1995) - Letterboxd Review

As much as we are presented some level of understanding and guidance in life, the pursuit of contentedness in an isolated society is alienating. Fear of being a burden to everybody around you can inflict self-deterioration and once isolated from your own identify, all that is left is fear. Centred around a suburban housewife driven to self-destruction by a subservience, there is a dominant feminist theme throughout which remains true and strongly relevant to this day. But as well as this, in an anxiety-ridden contemporary world which wasn't ready for the internet, Safe now has even further relevance across a broader range of spectrums. Once society has left you alienated, it inevitably falls on the fringes to present some form of solace. This is particularly pertinent in the increasingly divisive age of social media, echo chambers, culture wars, algorithmically personalised media, biased news coverage, conspiracy theories, divisive online influencers, provocative clickbait, commune...
