Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 13-3-2023 — Siege!

13th March, 2023: Siege!

It’s officially Monday … and the day after this year’s Oscars.

Congratulations to everyone: and well done to Everything Everywhere, All At Once, and to Michelle Yeoh.

I have have to admit to a little disappointment, though.

If you recall, Yeoh was a key member of the Star Trek Discovery cast: as various versions of Captain/Empress Philippa Georgiou.

Arguably?   She was the best thing in it: there was even talk of a spin-off, focused on her character.

Something I know I wouldn’t mind seeing!

Something I feel is now unlikely to happen.

As an Oscar winner, Ms Yeoh is going to be able to command a higher fee.

I can’t say I blame her: that Best Actress Oscar is one hell of an endorsement.

But?

I get the feeling that fee may be too much for Star Trek’s producers.

Which is a shame: they’ll be losing out on a talent.

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 13-7-2019: The Siege.

13th July, 2019.

What with one thing and another … ?

I think I may have issues with my health.

In fact, I know I do.

But … ?

I have to admit, there’s not much I can do: until the results get in.

But, just as an upside … ?

I had an interview, yesterday: at a local betting shop.

Whether I get it?

Is a whole other matter.

But it would give my mental health a boost.

While I’m at it … ?

I’m — obviously — not working at the moment.

So I’m short of cash: as are many others.

So … ?

Well, that does encourage scammers: who offer fraudulent grants on social media.

Not something I’d seen: but something I’d been made aware of, by this piece on the BBC’s news site.

I’m thankful they did.

Anything that can highlight this is a good thing …
