Today I am 3 YEARS clean and sober! This recovery year I have directed two and a half films, worked on several more, sponsored two women, grown out my fringe, injured my spine and fallen in love - not in that order! I am so happy to be three and so excited for the future #odaat

After nearly 16 years (!!!) on Twitter, it's finally become too much of a cesspit to ignore and I just don't like spending time here any more - I'm moving to Bluesky because it's nicer over there. I'm at izkirk.bsky.social. please give me your accounts!

weighing in on Megalopolis - it has some of the worst film acting and dialogue I have ever seen, it's astonishingly misogynistic and nonsensical, the metaphors are as subtle as a swift hammer to the jaw and you simply MUST see it in a cinema because it's a beautiful masterpiece

@LHM1 had this exact thought, wearing a suede jacket, in the same exact torrential rainstorm that caused you to tweet this Lucy. Justice for our suede autumn jackets!!!

pretty uncool that London in autumn is the perfect temperature to wear suede but you're never more than 4 hours away from ruining any jacket in a torrential rain storm

@Elygian13 I'm shocked! Maybe I'm biased because I really love a good email but sending emails and DMs to people is a really fun part of my job and I enjoy it loads. Makes me wonder if using AI to help you communicate makes your communication skills atrophy a bit. Like muscles 💪

My boomer opinion is that getting an email or text from someone that's obviously been written with chatGPT (and it is obvious, guys!!!) makes me lose a huge amount of respect for them. a person having to use AI to communicate with another person is honestly so depressing

are we all getting constant adverts for those plush bunnies that are themed like (and im not exaggerating for effect here) “ptsd”, “bpd”, “hyperthyroidism”, “anaemia”, and for some reason “kiwi fruit”

Hey team! Looks like I'm teaching improv again! But this time, up in Manchester. If I've ever taught you, what's a thing I've said that was useful? Or a note that helped? Or... I dunno... something we laughed about.

@paulfoxcroft I'll try and dig my old notes from your classes out once I'm better for more examples but the spacework tyranny impressed upon me greatly. That and shouting "WHO ARE YOU? WHERE ARE YOU???? WHAT ARE YOU DOING??????"

AHAHA! I had forgotten my absolute TYRANNY over mime!
Isabelle Kirk@izkirk

@paulfoxcroft Paul I *still* tell people "that's not a gun! You're not holding a phone!" when they do finger guns or finger phones. I tell people this in non-improv settings all the time and they hate it. I have never forgotten your spacework lessons

need to banish the gut reaction i have to everything as ‘i’m in trouble’. phone buzzes, i’m in trouble. someone gets my attention at work, i’m in trouble. its awful being mentally built like a neurotic horse

@paulfoxcroft taught me how to improvise and I owe so, so much to him. Some of my best memories are of his classes - I legitimately am a better person as a direct result of his teaching. Manchester people- there is no better improv teacher than Paul! He is world-class!
Paul Foxcroft@paulfoxcroft

What's up, fellow communists? I'm delighted to tell you that I'm launching a new project today! You can now learn how to improvise with me and @FreyaParker over at ImprovNorth.com! Manchester's newest improv school!
