I watched a half-hour long video of how to build a time-travel machine.

That's 30 minutes of my life I'll be getting back.

OK I'm going to romain around here a little longer, there's been a few puns but I think it's just the tip of the iceberg.

sorry the last one was a gem.

It could be worse, though. My old mate Vinnie Grett from Texas was reminding me just the other day of John Donne's immortal complaint, from way back in 1624: "No mayonnaise in Ireland....".

I watched it. The acting style reminded me of Four Weldings and a Funeral.

Meant to post earlier that this has been a favourite of mine for a long time now... but I probably tried to make a poor joke instead. :(

Another short sci-fi clip that always gets me is the video to "oh baby" by LCD Soundsystem

This one...

not seen it before. Very moving.

This looks like the inspiration behind The Night Sky a 2022 series starring Sissy Spacek. I've loved her since Badlands!
