"live action of [insert animation] in the works--" please just fund animation instead of treating live action as the final pokemon evolution of a story

Next time you hear someone try to tell you that ADHD is a "superpower", ask them who buys replacements for all their broken crockery & lost cutlery. Who pays their late fees. Who pays their rent necause they can't hold down a fucking longterm job. Especially if they're unmedicated.

this is what it feels like to post on bluesky

If you're reading this and you're a fucking Vline train driver on the lines that go past MoPo...

you can talk about Nuremberg all you want, frankly I think we should save us all the time & money & just Mussolini the fuckers. I want to see their corpses hanging by their fucking feet in a New York service station, since "justice" moves too fucking slow for fascists these days.

do you think there’s a Taliban guy who actually loves his office job and now there’s war with Pakistan he’s like

The whole Trump administration is just rooting around in complicated systems - regional balances of power, state legitimacy, funding for global health - and ripping wires out, and they've frankly been lucky that they've ripped out so many wires without electrocuting themselves. Won't last forever.

Current men's haircut styles appear to come in two flavours: mullet or mushroom. I don't know which one I hate more.

Sometimes contemporary cinema is not cutting it and you need to watch a Kiwi physicist and his friends hang out in a spooky house in 1973 (The Legend of Hell House) and it opens with this hilarious card.

We Bury the Dead: *is set in Tasmania* Me: That's clearly filmed in a fucken suburb of Perth, my guys. (imagine a film being set in New York and someone filming it in idk, suburban Arizona with no attempt to make sets, dress them, etc)

I am rly enjoying reading it, but To Walk The Night (1937) by William Sloan is basically "two men meet a woman with ASD, one falls in love with her & the other doesnt". How very dare she not perform her gender correctly/neurotypically/to ecpnomic class standards!!!!

worth noting that the second rich people stopped being afraid of mobs tearing them limb from limb, they stopped building libraries and opera houses and stuff and started ripping the copper wiring out of the walls of society instead

I am just posting to say I aten't ded, more for my own benefit though. I am very very sore for all the wrong reasons, though. Looking forward to being 80% arthritis in 15 years I guess.

why are you making Predictions. have you been alive lately

it really annoys me that no one ever parks their cars properly in the original Ring movies. srsly if I lived in the apartment block that Reiko Asakawa is in I would murder all these arseholes myself, Sadako can get the fuck in line.

I'm sure someone's already done this but; watching Frankenstein (2025) be like (vt.tiktok.com/ZSf47s7D6/)

finally got around to watching Sinners and while I am now real sad I didn't get to see it in cinemas, it's still a fucking masterpiece. holy shit.

I can't believe it's been 10 years since Pam.

If you use GMail, AI (Gemini) was turned on yesterday by default and now scans all of your content for machine learning. To turn off, go to Settings>General and scroll down. Uncheck the box for "Smart features." There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.

11th of November, fuckos. Important date, we must show our reverence and respect... For the 50th anniversary of the dismissal of the Whitlam Government and the 1975 Constitutional Crisis of Australia.

we all know the old joke about how if most blokes got their periods, tampons/pads would be called ULTIMATE SUPER SOAKER 9000 etc right? well that's now happened with vacuum cleaners, since now they are all literally called shit like ULTIMATE POWER ADVANCED SUCK 9000 etc. so men must be using them.

thinking about heeem!!!!!! go see Good Boy!!!!!

I deslike the way some US trgions use 'drug' as the past-tense of 'drag' instead of 'dragged'. I'm usually pretty cool with Americanizations of English, but this one, for some reason, is my hill to die on. Or maybe it's just because my neck pain is really bad today, who can say. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

for real tho, how do you tell Amazon there's a spelling error in a part of their user settings on their website? (when you go to devices & content > content > Docs > filter settings. not present on other types of content views, just the Docs)

that is some Nice Art (finally, some good fucking food, etc)

One of the things I always find telling is the idea that we have to judge past people by the standards of their time, as if the fact that they did bad things means that everyone thought it was okay. They didn't. Pretty much every obviously evil act had people saying that it was, in fact, bad.

my hot take is some of y'all need to stop only reading comics. read prose, go to a museum, learn scrimshaw, wtfever. go be an interesting person first because i can TELL when people don't ingest anythiinnggg else but comics

It includes customers appealing an incorrect age verification, if you're wondering.

Today: sfx lettering and cover design with constant feedback from my supervising editor

If you wanna see something good that doesn't waste a single minute of its 2 hour and 14 minute runtime, go watch Exhuma. Fucking banger of a movie, I've thought about it every day since I watched it.

You really know when a podcast is written by someone from the USA, because they don't know/forget that Pakistan is a nuclear power.

Weapons had a really good movie in there somewhere, but it desperately needed a WAY more ruthless editor. Felt like Zach Cregger was too close to that editing suite & the released film unfortunately suffered a lot because of it.

TIL just as koalas are full of chlamydia, elephants tend to have TB, especially if they are in captivity or living near humans with TB. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I love how pro-pockets Alien Earth is. Mega corporations may run the universe but if the trade off is all clothing will have a minimum of 4 pockets per piece then maybe it's worth it.

if you can help my wonderful friends and their very sweet pets out of a garbage situation, i would love you forever also, if you donate, i'll voice something for you 💕

Silksong: here's a new enemy, the pathetic worm. He's 3 inches tall and has the voice of an 80 year old man. Me: heh, cool Silksong: the pathetic worm has 7 different attacks, 400 hp, and will take two of your health per hit Me (through tears): very...cool...

youtube: we're only using AI to deal with resolution issues, pinky swear every youtube short: looks like steaming AI bullshit with mannequin-smooth humans creeping everyone the fuck out. so even if you're a creator who doesn't use AI, you're gonna have it thrust upon you, without consent

made some new cards for my dice game at conventions :3 🌿 #art #kpopdemonhunters #KPDH

Timothy Oliphant is really carrying Alien Earth, isn't he. I guess that's the risk with a cast consisting of mostly younger actors.

love it when podcasts use Aussie cockatoo screeching as stand-in for a Jersey devil or a thunderbird *eyes @grimandmild.bsky.social re: Bridgewater* I mean, they are terrifying demons so you could have subbed in cockatoos instead of something made-up as the thing your characters were running from.

you all know I fucken love listening to narrative audio drama podcasts but I fucken hate it when the cast is famous enough that the three ads that keep repeating on the show are a) expensive cars, b) gambling, c) BHP.

am I just old and grumpy or is there actually a vast increase in the amount of spam marketing bullshit I get sent these days. I feel like it's the latter but I come from a long line of dementia patients so I'm probably losing my fucking mind.

related: if you quote stephen king as an influence but you idealise small US towns in your horror novels, you've grossly misunderstood his writing or just refuse to get the fucken message.

I binged all of this podcast yesterday specifically because I was looking for something a) made by grown ups, for grown ups, that doesn't treat its audience like idiots and b) not made by North Americans. And it delivered above and beyond what I expected. Cannot recommend enough.

hmmmm, interesting but also not surprising. if you're gonna bloat your network with mediocre true crime podcasts in an already oversaturated market, it's not gonna end well.

on behalf of all sane Australians, I would like to apologise for the stupid itch.io & Steam bullshit currently making the lives of creators everywhere hell. but also, what if the platforms could implement their own fucking content rules instead of mass-banning the metaphorical babies & bathwater.

Nothing prepared me for FTM to mean “First Time Mom”. I’m hanging out in very different corners of the internet.

shoutout to all my millennials who feel such relief at the idea of their parent(s) dying but then immediately feel horribly guilty for feeling such a thing afterwards. or like not, since that last part is probably just the Catholic brainwashing I was subjected to as a kid.

I would like to ban Guy Montgomery from frowning at any camera too intensely because it gives too much Tony Abbott circa 1994. Especially if Guy is wearing the brown jacket.
