Fleeting Images

Took the mighty @novatwinsmusic to @rainbowbarandgrill to see Lemmy and talk about what it means to be a rock star in 2022. In today's @the.independent
Went for breakfast with my old pal Jeff to talk about 30 years of playing Dr Ian Malcolm in the Jurassic Park movies and the perils of letting corporate interests decide the future of humanity: "Elon Musk would suggest that we go colonise Mars. I don’t know as much as he does, but my feeling is: Shame. Shame. Why would any other planet, if they had a say in it, accept our admittance after what we’ve done to this planet? We’ve done many lovely things, and maybe we can pat ourselves on the back for painting this painting and one thing or another, but can we not spend a little energy seeing if we can clean up this mess?"
“I said: ‘Will you eat dog shit?’ He said: ‘Sure.’ We were terrorists against taste.” - Had a thoroughly entertaining chat with John Waters about the 50th anniversary of Pink Flamingos, among other things, for today's @the.independent
Went to Santa Fe to talk to George RR Martin about stories, Stan Lee and sending out invites to a Red Wedding: “It makes people angry, it makes people sad. People throw the book against the wall or into the fireplace. When it was on TV, it had the same effect on tens of thousands, if not millions, of people. To my mind, that’s good. We’re talking about death here!”
