Rob’s skills behind and often in front of the camera went to 11. A tragic loss of one the of the funniest, humble and talented triple skilled artists (writer, director and actor) of our times.

Got a new fleece blanket for the dogs bed this winter and Molly loves it so much she barely leaves it. She also hogs it somewhat... #dogs

I sometimes wonder if I'm just an auld fella shaking my fist at clouds when I back off from modern tech, but the truth is, most big tech products are no longer built to be useful, they're built to rinse you for a minimum standard service. And even children can see this.

ONE MILLION YEARS B.C. (1966)

First trailer for ‘Supergirl’ Releasing in theaters June 26

Nothing says Christmas like dog arses flanking a Christmas tree.

I'm giving away a copy of this year's Monster Month, just Like/Follow/Repost and you're in with a chance of winning.

Trin Tragula — for that was his name — was a dreamer, a thinker, a speculative philosopher or, as his wife would have it, an idiot.

Public Domain Day 2026 is almost here. On January 1, works from 1930—including Miss Marple, Animal Crackers, and The Little Engine That Could—enter the U.S. public domain. Expect celebration, confusion, and at least one Betty Boop slasher film. Sorry in advance. copyrightlately.com/public-domai...

Cannot imagine what would be so attractive about technology made in an era before everything was so aggressively abusive and predatory and pre-broken to people who have never known anything else

Today my Aunt Shirley was cremated. My favourite Aunt and someone who looked after me a lot growing up. In the 80s I spent nearly every weekend at hers, playing with my cousin. Those times may have passed but the memories remain. One of the kindest, honest, loving people ever. R.I.P. Aunt Shirley.

I never imagined I would ever forget there was new Doctor Who on TV and miss it.

Get a load of this. 😆

Important facts.

Ok. Maybe there is such a thing as dumb questions.

I just want some of these fucking people to face real consequences

The Universe could not possibly work like that, he thought, cannot possibly. That, he thought to himself, would be as absurd as... he terminated that line of thinking. Most of the really absurd things he could think of had already happened.

For thousands more years the mighty ships tore across the empty wastes of space and finally dived screaming on to the first planet they came across — which happened to be the Earth — where due to a terrible miscalculation of scale the entire battle fleet was accidentally swallowed by a small dog

To begin with it had been too stark, too crazy, too much what the man in the street would have said, "Oh yes, I could have told you that," about. Then some phrases like "Interactive Subjectivity Frameworks" were invented, and everybody was able to relax and get on with it.

"Hell, I'm relieved to hear you say that," said Ford. "Why?" "Because I thought I must be going mad." "Perhaps you are. Perhaps you only thought I said it." Ford thought about this. "Well, did you say it or didn't you?" he asked. "I think so," said Arthur.

"We would love to stay and help," shouted Ford, picking his way over the mangled debris, "only we're not going to."

A game where you can do anything and they’re mad that people are doing anything.

Never imagined I would live through "Dungeons and Dragons players are devil worshippers" and "Dungeons and Dragons has gone woke!" in the same lifetime.

Timeline cleanser 🐈

Why the bloody hell are there fireworks going off outside??

Biggest laugh of the day, over and over again.

I dunno, why didn't the makers of City on Fire sue you?

people say that Rincewind is a total pessimist, and this is almost but not quite true he is also the kind of person who, when falling from a great height, will do his best to figure out how to run away from the ground right up until he hits it

Discworld QOTD, from Sourcery “‘I’m not going to ride on a magic carpet!’ he hissed. ‘I’m afraid of grounds!’ ‘You mean heights,’ said Conina. ‘And stop being silly.’ ‘I know what I mean! It’s the grounds that kill you.’”

Type in your zodiac into gif and see what comes up! Post your fav one! (I only did it because I knew what would actually come up...)

The last ever dolphin message was misinterpreted as a surprisingly sophisticated attempt to do a double-backwards-somersault through a hoop whilst whistling the "Star Sprangled Banner", but in fact the message was this: So long and thanks for all the fish.

Vintage UK Radio Times, 28/11/1958 issue (pages 28 and 29) READ: https://genome.ch.bbc.co.uk/page/b44f23d3019d4c93a16e7aeeb21e7aa2?page=28

they passed a law decreeing that anyone who had to carry a weapon as part of his normal Silastic work (policemen, security guards, primary school teachers, etc.) had to spend at least forty-five minutes every day punching a sack of potatoes in order to work off his or her surplus aggressions.

Holy Shit this is insane

Where you would be wrong would be in failing to realize that the editor, like all the editors of the Guide has ever had, has no real grasp of the meanings of the words "scrupulous", "conscientious" or "diligent", and tends to get his nightmares through a straw.

Here are my top 10 dogs carrying big sticks!

"Come," called the old man, "come now or you will be late." "Late?" said Arthur. "What for?" "What is your name, human?" "Dent. Arthur Dent," said Arthur. "Late, as in the late Dentarthurdent," said the old man, sternly. "It's a sort of threat you see."

Back in August my Birthday money came to the same price as The Spectrum, so I was going to treat myself but I never did. But yesterday Smyths were selling it with £45 off for Black Friday (which I still hate is a thing in the UK) so I snapped it up & it arrived today. And I still have £45 left over.

In the UK? This is a total steal.

He waited and waited for another accident to happen. The trouble with trying to make the right accident happen is that it won't. That is not what "accident" means. The accident that eventually occurred was not what he had planned at all.

The antics of the President always made amazingly popular tri-d: that's what they were for.

Watched The Creator (2023). Had no idea anything about the film going in but had been told it was really good. Not really sure what I was expecting but I enjoyed it but I feel its not going to be one that stays with me. It was good but not great. #film #movies

I am sure that in the Call of Duty, one of the death noises when you get killed is Roger Moore's "Yooowwl!" youtu.be/_G38TInwgg8?...

Today you learned that Snoopy once wrote for Batman.

"Science has achieved some wonderful things of course, but I'd far rather be happy than right any day." "And are you?" "No. That's where it all falls down of course." "Pity," said Arthur with sympathy. "It sounded like quite a good lifestyle otherwise."
