Abandoning House in season 2 when (spoiler alert) Dr Foreman stabs Dr Cameron with a syringe exposing her to his lethal desease to compel her to find a cure … and then there being precisely zero consequences. It’s in-character for Cameron to forgive him. Everyone else: hello?

“So no one need worry about “Fanny Adams” being implicitly sweary, or about its being tweely euphemistic. It is neither of those things. It began, though, as the trivialisation of a barbarity” https://www.theguardian.com/crosswords/crossword-blog/2018/dec/03/crossword-roundup-why-do-we-say-sweet-fanny-adams

It feels like every time I try whitelisting a website I care about from my content blocker, I get some kind of malicious popup or other behavior. This time it’s Polygon.

Movies set in 2019:
- Blade Runner
- The Running Man
- Akira
As well as the undeservedly less well known Italian movie, “2019 - Dopo la caduta di New York”.
Next job: gluing the Lego Friends advent calendar pieces together to make permanent decorations for Christmases hence. Is that heresy?
Regardless! Have a special year you fantastic beasts!
Jan 1’s a bit weird, though. I always feel ready to kick on December 27 latest
