If Reform supporters are fine with the party admitting every opportunistic Tory has-been, we might need to reevaluate the idea that they actually want substantial changes to how this country works. They might literally just be Tory pensioners who want more racism.

i do genuinely think we need to jail every single person currently working for ICE

Transphobes (including “gender-critical feminists”) are fascists. Not ‘fascist enabling’ Not ‘fascist adjacent’ Not ‘collaborating with fascists’ They are fascism’s core, fascism front and centre.

I’m still thinking about The Bone Temple a week later, I might have to write a review/essay for the first time since uni

Why is my local Post Office selling body spray with the founding father of the UAE on it

Target demographic: children in their late 40s

Finally finished all my ADHD assessment forms and it only took me four months! I hope they consider that as evidence.

I have mixed feelings about this. I met some great people and got to do some cool stuff through social media as a teenager, but it’s so much worse now than it was in the early 2010s. If you’re going to ban it, you need to replace it with something that isn’t profit-motivated (somehow).

In other news, the Minister for Science, Innovation and Technology has announced £5bn of funding to build the Torment Nexus in Milton Keynes, saying it will “create jobs and boost the local economy”.

I haven’t really been impressed by any of the new Gorillaz songs but this one in particular is offensively bad. Sounds like he spent about five minutes total writing the lyrics and melody.

Holy shit they made a podcast just for me (and other 40-something year old British men) www.youtube.com/watch?v=GhJx...

I liked the first episode of AKOTSK! Great casting and performances, especially Peter Claffey as Dunk and Daniel Ings as Lyonel Baratheon.

28 Years Later: The Bone Temple is so fucking good. It manages to be really funny and disturbing in equal measures, and is ultimately about the necessity of empathy and compassion even in the worst circumstances imaginable. Five bones out of five.

Gentlemen you can’t bone in here, this is the bone temple!

One of my most hated tropes is when, at the end of a story, the writer decides to show that the characters are successful and happy by having them start their own business.

There’s a company called Merchoid that sells geek slop (e.g. funko pops and clothing plastered with franchise logos) and I think it’s a really good slur for people who buy that kind of stuff

DICK BUSH!!!

Everyone seems to be losing their shit over the Stranger Things fandom being weird, as if most online fandom communities aren’t full of literal children. You are raging at thirteen year olds bro, go outside

I had a nice few days on my own but now my housemate is back and the sink is disgusting already

I actually kind of liked the Stranger Things finale once all the CGI action shit was over and done with. They managed to breathe some life back into the characters to send them off, which was nice.

If anyone wants to know how my Christmas break is going: over the past three days I read The Turn of the Screw and binged all of The Haunting of Bly Manor. (And I just watched the 1961 adaptation The Innocents too). My screw is fucking turned.
