so i *did* miss something at the GGs.
I did enjoy the eerie hush as the remnants of Kirk Douglas were rolled onstage, reminding all present that beyond glory and adulation lies only the cold of the grave.— BANDZ STACKHAGE (@NickPinkerton) January 8, 2018
― ice cream social justice (Dr Morbius), Monday, 8 January 2018 21:45 (six years ago) link
It was embarrassing, but because Douglas, while alert, was in no condition to speak. I had vaguely known about the Wood allegations.

Armond's list of the best gay films of 2017. I've already seen My Life as a Zucchini (meh) and I mean to see a few of the others, but does anyone have anything to say about Paris: 05:59: Theo & Hugo, Four Days in France or Dream Boat?
― iCloudius (cryptosicko), Wednesday, 10 January 2018 18:59 (six years ago) link
FOUR DAYS was okay at best, PARIS was good.

When your only other option seems to be a sadistic sociopath who thinks your muteness is your most attractive quality, then I suppose the scaly creature from the black lagoon might seem like a good bet for a boink. But I still wished that Sally Hawkins could get it on with someone a little less amphibious before relocating forever to the bottom of the damn ocean.
