What fucking AR is it supposed to be in? And the rarest, most expensive one gives you the Super-35-TV-edit-ass artless open-matt all-safe-area non-composition version?

Look at you all spending £££ to see The Odyssey in fancy IMAX when it’s free to air on Channel 5. They spelt Matt Damon wrong though.

Drove 8 hours today to a holiday park in Pembrokeshire where we get to drive around in a little golf buggy.

I do in fact remember the 1995 cup final as I watched it with some visiting mates in my student flat in Manchester and then we went to watch Mudhoney.

Trump has arranged to lend Milei 2 goals.

Briefly thought "well, that's the last time I'll have to listen to Wonderwall for a while", then I remembered who the prime minister is now.

Guy who is annoyed that the sea is not sufficiently wine-dark.

All day I dream about the icecream van. LITERALLY HE HAS BEEN ROUND ONLY ONCE THIS WEEK. open.substack.com/pub/nothingb...

A GHOST STORY

Dunno, doesn’t seem great that the new PM is like “your guess is as good as mine mate!” when asked literally fucking anything.

Assumed they used it with everything tbh. We are now at the stage where I assume all mainstream media is genAI and therefore I’m not touching it unless confirmed otherwise.

‘Prioritise values of provincial Britain over metropolitan mindset’ just means ‘racist over not-racist’, doesn’t it?

Saw a bit of THINGS TO DO IN BELFAST WHEN YOU’RE DEAD or whatever it’s called and then saw some of the reviews and it’s one of those things where I feel like I might have come here from a different planet.

Loleatta Holloway's going to come up with all the policies in secret while he just stands there looking glamorous and taking all the credit.

There’s a new version of Balamory but the coloured house song is no longer a calypso. How are my children supposed to learn about calypso now?

got the cyclospora variant that gives you explosive turds. beefy, dense logs that launch with the violence of a potato cannon

DELIVERY FOR SHABBA RANKS

"Graduand" implies the existence of a "graduor" and a "gradunot".

"We didn't have any of that gender stuff in our day" Our day:

This is why it was extremely odd to see a prominent US trans commentator doing a 'lol transphobic colonisers England lost!' dance last night. What does she think Argentina is?

Hidemi Ishikawa - Love Comes Quickly [Japan, italo, cover, electronic] (1986) Cover of the Pet Shop Boy's classic https://redd.it/isyt9d https://youtu.be/8PBjlAVKsTQ

I'll admit that I'm slightly bemused when people get all excited by a film "finally" being released by Criterion when it's a title that has long been available on a good, packed, and much cheaper blu-ray.

Remember that time Zippy tricked Geoffrey into drinking his urine? #HydrationBreak

“For example, I keep hearing this racist prick spouting absolute shite… ah, wait, that’s just me.”

It's always Pink Floyd. I like contemporaries of Pink Floyd, I like stuff that's influenced by them, I even like stuff that's blatantly imitative, but actual Pink Floyd? No sir, not for me.

The funny thing about right-wing manosphere losers being Homer-pilled is that my main memory of reading The Odyssey (T.E. Lawrence prose translation) about 30 years ago is how often men cried in it. Like, they were on their knees and bawling their eyes out on every other page.

If you didn’t see a book immediately, that’s why we are friends

Morning all, someone has done it at last 😹😹

Extremely weird American use of ‘wins’ instead of ‘win’ there.

apart from everything else, this is just terrible pedagogical practice

Gordon Gow's SUSPENSE IN THE CINEMA (1968), spotted in Roberta Findlay's BLOOD SISTERS (1987)

Last night I fell down a rabbit hole of portraits of Shakespeare, and I’m not sure how I have never before seen chonky boi bard from his funerary monument.

“Verify your age” Sometimes there was nothing on television.

New Lana Del Rey album title revealed:

Booked to see the CBeebies panto for the fourth year in a row. This year I might even take the kids!

Meh. Wait until they hear my plan for a 256 team world cup. Opening with 64 groups of 4, followed by the round of 128. No qualifications, no seeding, would need about 40 new national teams to be created. www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba...

Farewell, Sam Neill. He was a gent. This interview was by me (2001) and not, as claimed by google's AI in one of innumerable errors, by "journalist David Cairnes". It was for the Telegraph (before it went insane) hence - trigger warning - there's stuff in it about "riding to hounds".

I listen to atonal improvised music whilst driving, partly because I like that sort of thing, and also because it nicely accompanies all the weird scraping and clanking noises my car has started making.

Got him to do my bathroom and now there’s a ghost in my house.

I see Americans getting into football is going well then.

Looks legit

On the 45

Do they keep singing ‘Low Rider’ by War?

AW’s death means that out of the seven subjects of Louis Theroux’s series When Louis Met…, only Chris Eubank and the Hamiltons are still alive.

When the Italian fashion label Fiorucci paired up with the collectible sticker company Panini in (obviously, just look at them) 1984.

I've spent a week trying to work out what makes these cheesy, silly sub-pop-art school rough book stickers tick, and have been attempting to create my own.
