this is annoying of me to post, but i really was dead scared about this climate reality in like 1997. people are surprised that the earth's habitability could break down within a human lifespan but the science was mostly all there 30 years ago and available to anyone willing to reckon with it

Bill Oddie, what a lovely bloke. He wrote us a letter when we started making The Young Ones, wishing us the very best, and warning us against interference from higher up. He didn’t know anyone in the cast personally. It just came out of the blue. Lovely thing to do.

My mum’s died. I wasn’t sure writing a musical could get harder but I guess I was wrong.

I've tried to take a few days off from badgering you all, but apparently today an anonymous donor is doubling every donation under $500.01 - so I feel it is my duty to remind you to reward cancer sufferers for my monumental sacrifice, grog-wise.
Support Anthony Morgan this Dry July and make a donation.
I have signed up for Dry July to raise money for people affected by cancer. Please show your support and make a donation.

'The Perfect Neighbor' blew my socks off at Melbourne International Film Festival last year. Incredibly astute editing (Viridiana Lieberman) and directing (Geeta Gandbhir), harrowing in its grief, legacy and honesty. It left me reeling, and I am so happy that it was nominated for an Oscar.

In an effort to improve my discipline (also bc I am sick of spruiking live shows to prove I write) I started the writer's equivalent of a podcast. It's free. Still working on the discipline part (regularity). It's hopefully funny & defs short. This week's about chips.

Zombie kids, I did not like 28 Years Later, it felt like set up to me, silly in parts - as if a producer ordered 2 films instead of 1 (aka The Hobbit Protocol). BUT.
