I’m a massive superhero movie fan and I’ve enjoyed most about everything that Marvel have put out over the years, but to have footage that is “critical” to your new movie added to an older movie suggests two things. 1) You’re only in it for the money 2) There’s something wrong with your new movie.

Without saying your age, post your favourite film that was released the year you turned 18

“You need to survive for your own sake. You need to believe that what happens to you matters, because the world would be a worse place without you”. @gwillow.me throwing bars like always

Historically accurate Batman Beyond

You succeed in your career and meet your role model. "I really enjoyed chatting with you" you say. "Huh?" they're confused. "You were probably talking to Claude." you bolt awake in the mountains of Carthage. It is 217 BC. You are the general Hannibal. The future cannot come to pass. Rome must burn

Read my first @tkingfisher.com book this week, after much prompting by @clairedrinkstea.bsky.social. I thought it was brilliant. Some good, genuinely creepy, folk horror. Looking forward to reading the next one.

Happy Gary Retrograde everyone! The next two weeks are the only two weeks out of the year when Gary Numan is older than Gary Oldman

Species II is one of the dumbest SF movies ever made, but the corporate logo Mars rocket was genuinely funny.

“i’m still punk” i whisper to myself as i turn down the music in my car so i can see better

you should be immune to social anxiety at a certain age I’m 40, this is bullshit

I like how all of the female custodes drama in 40k spaces right now just boils down to "wah wah the toy soldier game franchise with decades of lore that repeatedly is retconned and changed was slightly changed again to put girls in it! This is the most important thing in my life right now!"

I am once again reminding you all that the UK government introduced an Online Safety Act that is effectively a porn ban on most adult porn websites, but is dithering over banning a website that is actually creating child porn.

Sometimes we play games, sometimes we sort cards with Gargoyles playing in the background. It was a good Sunday evening with @colplaysgames.bsky.social #tabletop #tcg #lorcana

Keep men out of Queen’s sports

#tabletop night with @colplaysgames.bsky.social and we enjoyed very addictive snacks my friend sent from the USA. Cheddar Jalapeño Cheetos go spectacularly with a cold Corona and table top. 📕 A Place for All My Books 🐉 Flamecraft Duals

Incredible what a relentless campaign of disinformation about a so-called “invasion” can achieve. In fact having peaked at 944,000 in year to March 2023 net migration to the UK fell by over two-thirds to 204,000 in year to June 2025. Those arriving on small boats make up less than 5% of the total.

Fallout, Secret of Mana, Super Mario World, Link’s Awakening. All stone cold classics.

So it's appropriate to arrest a world leader if you consider them criminal? You can just go get them? Just asking questions here.

Dark Lord of the Sith. Could be worse I suppose.

What was the last movie you watched in 2025?

another robot highlight for 2025: man wearing humanoid mocap suit kicks himself in the balls

that the Whos celebrate Christmas suggests some knowledge of Christ, but whether this is our anthropic Christ or a distinctive Who-Christ remains obscure; some have argued Christianity was introduced to them during their refuge with Horton, which of course turns us to the matter of Elephant Religion

There’s an Arabic version of “every cloud has a silver lining” that translates to “no cows, no feeding them at dawn.” A Scots version is “today’s rain is tomorrow’s whisky.” And a Romanian phrase for looking on the bright side is un șut în fund, un pas înainte, or “a kick in the ass, a step forward”

Not now enormous 68 Million yr old egg, we’ve got other shit going on.

The number 1 movie when you were 10 years old is how your 2026 is going to go

Techbros seem to love Tolkien, so here's an analogy to help you understand what genAI is. GenAI is The One Ring. You think your use is justified, b/c you don't have evil in your heart. But it came from evil, it is intended for evil purpose, & anything you do with it will be twisted to that end.

“Werewolf” “There wolf. There tree”

One of the co-creators of one of the most important and popular comics characters of the last 15 years and this is the thanks she gets. I enjoy much of what Marvel puts out but this sort of practice is deplorable.

Last months #Tabletopgames played. November was a bit of a slower month as we had lots of things going on in real life. Hopefully we’ll get some more done over the Christmas break. Really proud of The Boy beating us at Steam Up. All games played with @clairedrinkstea.bsky.social

Just finished #CoffinMoon by @keithrosson.bsky.social and just, wow. It’s my first book by Rosson and it certainly won’t be the last. Easily in my top 3 horror books of the year. Was bought the sexy signed edition by @clairedrinkstea.bsky.social so the book dragon in me is very happy.

On May 11, 1950, while working on the Rawlins National Bank in Wyoming, a construction crew unearthed a whiskey barrel that contained a human skeleton with its skull cap sawed off & an odd pair of shoes. Dr. Lillian Heath, now in her 80s, was asked if she knew anything about it...🧵

SEPTEMBER TABLE TOP GAMES Slower month than last playing table top games with @colplaysgames.bsky.social but we haven’t had annual leave to give us time to play and I’ve had a horrible and persistent attack of the ick so energy and ability to play hasn’t been there.

It's honestly bizarre. We read picture books to our kids, then at an arbitrary point expect them to stop being interested in the pictures

“Ah," said Mr Pin. "Right. I remember. You are concerned citizens." He knew about concerned citizens. Wherever they were, they all spoke the same private language, where 'traditional values' meant 'hang someone'. - Terry Pratchett, The Truth

And this is Batman's Aff His Nut by Robert Florence, which, in my opinion, is easily the greatest Scottish poem ever written about Batman...

If you see this QTP with a video game that transports you back to your childhood. My first real experience with a Mario game.

Table top games played over the weekend with @colplaysgames.bsky.social and one with our Poyo Boyo. 🧀 Fromage (x2) 🐙 Deep Regrets 🧑‍🧑‍🧒 🐓 Villagers 🏘️ Streets

‘I’m not far right but I went to a rally organised by Tommy Robinson’ is a pretty unconvincing position.

Two truths may dwell together. One may weep for loss while still naming evil as evil. Compassion for those left behind is just, but sanctifying the cruel as heroes is folly. History is not rewritten at the grave. We must speak both truths. The humanity of death and the inhumanity of deeds.

Look at this response from Polanski to Sophie Ridge's attempted gotcha on flags To *finally* have a mainstream political voice standing up for racialised & minoritised communities being intimidated by the violent fash on our streets It's really not that hard, is it?

AUGUST #TABLETOPGAMES I love #tabletop games but due to one reason or another my playtime has been nonexistent… UNTIL NOW! @colplaysgames.bsky.social and I have started playing in earnest and are trying to find protected time to get games on the table.

Actually, Frankenstein is a doctor success at the Venice film festival
