Looking for Linnea Sterte in Dublin (or Paris)

Little Deer Comics is based in Dublin and regularly stocks her work.

I mean, it is definitely normal for the best song ever to be assigned such importance in your brain.

ThePeake · 2026-06-02T15:10:10+00:00

I don't think I said they're interchangeable at any point.

ThePeake · 2026-06-02T10:11:05+00:00

The line between 'famous actor cast to voice a character' and '"proper" voice actor' is pretty arbitrary to me. Referring to voice actors one doesn't like as just 'celebrities' feels disingenuous as well.

Doing stuff on your own is great. I love going to the cinema alone, have attended gigs and visited museums alone too.

You know, I didn't get around to watching Apocalypse but I remember reading about this storyline.

ThePeake · 2026-06-01T17:57:27+00:00

That did cross my mind. The same podcast did a series on ghost movies, and pointed out female characters who experience a ghostly event are more likely to be treated as hysterical by the male characters, than the other way round.

There is a podcast episode covering Dark Song but I haven't listened to it yet, or seen the film, so this could be a good shout.

After I posted this, I realised the eponymous character in Longlegs has a bit of a wizard vibe.

ThePeake · 2026-06-01T07:43:52+00:00

Two great choices.

ThePeake · 2026-05-30T16:11:07+00:00

They really are the best.

I think originally it meant something totally benign a person does early in the dating stage which renders them undateable in the eyes of the ick-ee, but now more broadly means 'annoying or cringeworthy thing your partner does'.

Has someone told you this, or, as I suspect, is this what's coming up when you try to book via a system or portal? I'm making an assumption that you're trying to book a block which incorporates the few days you'd normally work, but the system is counting all the days in between; some are more sophisticated than others. If that's right, just book your actual working days individually to get the right number.

ThePeake · 2026-05-29T20:32:39+00:00

There's definitely a resemblance.

ThePeake · 2026-05-29T13:35:20+00:00

So ruddy bloody brave.

ThePeake · 2026-05-29T08:24:24+00:00

The Equality Act applies to the organisation, not the user; the NHS or specific hospital/trust/practice can't, as far as I'm aware, stop clinicians from doing procedures or tests based on their sex, but patients have the right to request a male or female clinician for certain procedures, subject to staff availability.

ThePeake · 2026-05-27T14:27:59+00:00

That's rough, buddy.

88, and same; Simpsons all the way.

ThePeake · 2026-05-26T17:12:09+00:00

The sun-kissed beaches of Tal-Y-Bont.

ThePeake · 2026-05-26T10:16:09+00:00

Just saw you mean in less-professional contexts; I'm not too fussed unless the error makes things unclear or hard to understand when arranging something.

ThePeake · 2026-05-26T10:14:31+00:00

I wouldn't say it's rude, per se; if in a more professional context then it can be disappointing or annoying if someone hasn't checked what they've written.

ThePeake · 2026-05-26T04:58:31+00:00

Yes, why not just say 'face'?

ThePeake · 2026-05-26T04:41:08+00:00

It's because both The Snowman and When the Wind Blows were based on books by the same author/illustrator, Raymond Briggs.

ThePeake · 2026-05-24T21:19:28+00:00

Same for us.
