Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 22nd September 2026.

22nd September, 2026.


I think we can safely say it’s thumb-twiddling day.

Yes: and in other words?

It’s the day before payday: so I have no actual cash to do anything, beyond going of a nice healthy walk.

Which, given my weight was up 100 grams — about a third of a pound, Mum! — yesterday, is no bad thing!

Heigh ho!

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 21-9-2026 — Yom Kippur

21st September, 2026: Yom Kippur.


Right … 

The inevitable Monday has swung around, again.

So, yes: that means I’m off to my weight management class, again.

Hopefully, I’ve lost weight down the back of the sofa!

~≈⚖️≈~

Inevitably, I’ve caught more TV, overnight.

Yep: I’ve caught two more episodes of Widow’s Bay.

The show’s Twin Peaks meets The Fog vibe, after hanging around in New England bars with King and Lovecraft, does make for something rather watchable.

The fact it’s winning gongs … ?

Is either incidental … or tells you something …

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 20th September 2026.

20th September, 2026.


OK … it’s going to be a quiet Sunday!

At least I think it’s going to be quiet.

Hopefully, World War Three won’t start this morning: unless the 47th President does something incredibly stupid.

Although, now I see that written down … … 

~≈Ω≈~

I tried watching the first episode of Star City, the other night.

It … 

It’s well done.

But I found it very slow paced: and the colour palette contributed to a case of eyestrain that made me turn off after half an hour.

By contrast?

I caught the first episode of Widow’s Bay, last night.

With an atmosphere that mixed hints of Lovecraft, King, Jaws and The Fog, matched with a brighter overall colour palette?


I found it far more watchable.

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 19-9-2026 — International Talk Like a Pirate Day

19th September, 2026: Talk Like A Pirate Day.


Right: it’s Saturday!

And?

It’s Talk Like A Pirate Day!

Which means, of course, I’m going to encourage you to talk like a pirate.

Which could be fun … !

~≈🏴‍☠️≈~

I’m also going to discourage you from something.

I’m going to discourage you from downloading and installing TorBrowser.

And discourage you from downloading and installing Transmission, or something like it.

If — if — you install the pair, I’m going to discourage you from visit sites like Pirate Bay, then using the files you find there with Transmission, to illegally download movies and TV shows.


Doing so can get you in trouble*.

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 18th September 2026.

18th September, 2026.

Can someone do me a huge favour?

Play this list to my nephew, Jude?


Just skip past “Plaistow Patricia”!

~≈♬≈~

Just as a thought … ?

I watched “The Eyes”, last night: the first episode of For All Mankind spin-off, Star City.

Or, at least, tried to.

I managed to watch the first half hour, at any rate.

I’ll be honest: I may have to try again.

But this first episode struck me as very slow … 

We’ll see.
