Not saying this as a bad thing but in True Identity he was in whiteface and looked exactly like Bill Maher.

He also did a serial skit on one series of the Lenny Henry Show where he posed as an 80-something white guy who had directed movies in the 50s. Good makeup, really good voice work, and he finished it up by dropping out of character and saying "hey everyone, it's me, Lenny".

No because the Predator is the ultimate liberal, and doesn't see colour.

The alien is a graphic representation of HR Giger putting way too much effort into yet another effects project and then not getting paid AGAIN.

drat that guy must have been raging before he cut himself off and built his own literal tiny sex train world.

God bless the NHS. I’ll admit to being a bit down on it in the past (they hosed up multiple surgeries on my hand in the late 90s leaving one finger as a kind of claw), but today they really knocked it out the park.

My wife’s been ill for the past few days with vomiting and other gut stuff.. today she was literally thrashing in pain from it all. I called 111, and they had an ambulance with us within ten minutes of hanging up, which in turn got her straight to the hospital. She was seen and assessed in about twenty minutes after that, and on an IV for rehydration and pain relief ten after that. Everyone has been friendly and supporting (despite obviously being rushed off their feet). I just keep tearing up when I think about it. I wish there was more I could do to support them in their work, or at least show how appreciative I am but i’m such an emotional wreck right now even trying to say ‘thank you’ results in me breaking down. And they have enough on their plates without having to deal with that poo poo.

We started it on holiday sipping cocktails and listening to Podcasting Is Praxis by the pool while on a much belated ‘honeymoon’ holiday in Sorrento, and we’re ending it with her plumbed into several IVs in Barnet Hospital. The contrast is giving me loving whiplash.

One of the funniest things (to me anyway) about Giger is how most of the storage areas of his house are basically just racks and racks of natasha henstridge's chest, and this seems like the most normal thing in the world to him.

E: also he makes loving great looking chairs.

I've been there! Me and HauntedMrsRobot were on our way to or from visiting StarkingBarfish in the Large Hadron Collider and figured we'd stop at Gruyére to get cheese, but when we got there found there was a Giger Museum and thought "sod the cheese". It was very cool, if a little disturbing. That holiday was ace.

Appreciating both the irony of it and the rage induced glares from the very gammon dominated fellow guests (i’m 38 and my wife 30, and we were probably the youngest people there by 10 years in my case. Also not a single non-white, non-ruddy face present).

You ever feel like H.R Giger and Steve Bannon were separated at birth and Giger spent his entire life having nightmares and making weird sex art based around them, and somehow he was the more normal one?




Alternatively: Imagine what the world could be like if Giger had had Bannon's job.
