I've been reading the archived Music Weeks (a UK chart industry/trade publication) on worldradiohistory.com and in recent days they've been uploading 1997 issues. It's pretty interesting to follow the story of how Princess Di's death derailed a Kylie album.

my hottest take in regards to tng is that pulaski is a way better character than people give her credit for and I do think a lot of why people hate her is misogyny

His cheapest pie is Β£4.95. Selling 20,000 would generate Β£99,000 revenue.
He employs 39 people. Assuming they are all on minimum wage and work 40 hours weeks. The 50p increase costs his Β£780 in wages.
With 15% employers national insurance that is Β£897 per week.

Star Trek Generations is possibly the most beautifully lit film in the Star Trek series.
Was lucky enough to see Patrick Stewart seven times or so on Broadway and met him once at a party, where I was surprised at how tiny he was. Big loss for stage and film.

One of my favorite line deliveries. Completely understated but it's hard to imagine anyone else making it hit like this.

and Gilgamesh wept bitter tears, saying, "He who was my companion, through adventure and hardship, is gone forever."
Just received hours of Garbage VHS footage that hasn't made it to the internet yet. I don't know yet if I have permission to put this on my channel but I will ask if I can forward this stuff to the Garbage documentary team to be able to use.
OMG what a nice end to this shit day

So many other things to remember and celebrate Sir Patrick Stewart for... but this has to be one of the best line readings in the history of The Simpsons

Our ILM community offers its heartfelt condolences to the family, friends, and loved ones of Patrick Stewart, as well as to the galaxy of fans who admired him for his portrayal of Star Trek's Captain Jean-Luc Picard and Marvel's Professor Charles Xavier. ILM cherishes the opportunities we've had to collaborate with Stewart on a variety of productions, most notably Star Trek: First Contact, Star Trek Generations, and Star Trek: The Next Generation.

A lesser known gem that Patrick Stewart starred in was Jeffrey. One of the first gay-themed films I watched as a teen. Stewart, a straight man, played the role of a gay man in NYC with a profound fear of acquiring AIDS so perfectly.

Heβll never know this but Patrick Stewart showed countless boys how to be men. He showed that strength didn't have to mean intimidation, that intelligence should come with humility, and that you could - and should - stand up for what was right even when it cost you something.

If you need some cheering up, do yourself a favour and watch #StarTrekTNG's "Lessons" around the 15 minute mark. In these shots, Patrick Stewart is blowing into the flute but the hands are not his, they are "played" by a flutist. Look at the sparkle in Sir Patrick Stewart's eyes and the genuine smile on his face! π Filming this scene, with the flutist lying on his back in front of Sir Patrick and reaching up to play, must have been absolutely absurd - but he's going with it, classic as ever! ππ

This seems like a great time to reshare my favourite Sir Patrick Stewart performance, βWhat has the ECHR ever done for us?β Itβs just perfect in every possible way β¦ including the ending πππ RIP.

They just donβt make them like Patrick Stewart anymore. An acting powerhouse has left the stage. Rest easy! π―οΈ

βSomeone once told me that time was a predator that stalked us all our lives. But I rather believe that time is a companion who goes with us on the journey and reminds us to cherish every moment because theyβll never come again.β
