It took me a little while to remember where I'd heard the music at the climax of The Running Man www.youtube.com/watch?v=hWSt...

It is quite possible that Total War 40k and Half Life 3 might release in the same year, which is an insane thought.

W40k Total War, basically my perfect game. My inner teenager is screaming with excitement. youtu.be/QeCItSg-wmI?...

What's so frustrating about the Ashes is that the Aussies are beatable, they're not team they used to be. We just haven't turned up.

For heavens sake agent Truss, your mission is complete! You can come in now. I think she's gone native.. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

The inevitable Ashes depression arrived on day 3 of this test. So I suppose that's an improvement.

Very commercial, but I can't help liking this one youtu.be/UOM8egI348I?...

Routine is an excellent game, fantastic atmosphere and sound design. Proper sci-fi horror, with a touch of the backrooms to it.

322 on the first day at the Gabba is respectable, despite a number of embarrassing ducks. Some of the batsmen really need to turn up. Smash out another 20 tomorrow, get our hopes up, and then wait for the inevitable disappointment 🙂

So.. we have not fallen apart at the Gabba. But I've learned my lesson and will reserve judgement until day 2, lol

When Putin says that Russia is ready for war with Europe, you have to wonder if he actually believes this, or knows he's bluffing.

The legend meets that skinny dude off the internet. youtu.be/mfv0V1SxbNA?...

Lol

I'll be nominating Thomas Frank as Your Party leader. The ultimate chaotic masterpiece.

Peak Judean Peoples Front comedy. I swear this is performance art. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Predator Badlands is.. alright. Its based on the assumption that you want to empathise with Yautja, rather than them being mysterious hunters.

The Running Man is really good, best thing Edgar Wright has done in ages. Not as cartoonish as the 80s version, but a solid tone.

You have to wonder which group chat he confused this with. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

UK Road tax for electric cars is already more than petrol cars, and now they're introducing a pay-per-mile tax on top of that. I thought the aim was to encourage people to switch to electric..?

The whole comic strip is awesome, but this in particular is a work of genius www.theguardian.com/football/pic...

This is absolutely mindblowing incompetence by Trump's people. In the words of that Ukranian soldier, we are lucky they are so stupid. youtu.be/AUQOK49C3Vw?...

Imagine being the Ukrainian negotiatiors, caught between a fascist invasion and a US president who throws cheap abuse and changes his mind every 5 minutes.

One Battle After Another is a really, really great film. Beautifully filmed, great performances, and a statement on modern militarised America.

When your child enthusiastically tells you about something, no matter how old they are, it's the best thing ever.

Ah, normal ashes series has been resumed. It's the hope that kils you.

Zak Crawley has faced 11 balls and scored zero runs. Pretty sure I could do better than that.

Holy crap, RIP Mani. Incredible bassline on one of my all time favourite songs. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWBZ...

Absolutely insane first day in the Ashes. We have not come to play.

If we could have England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland and Northern Ireland in the world cup, that would be so awesome.

If you ever feel like you are unsure in your job, or you lack confidence, think of Matt Hancock in February 2020 telling the media that the risk to the public from Covid was "low"

It was obvious at the time, but good to see a formal report. No doubt Johnson will shrug it off, like the useless little narcissist that he is. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Its truly embarrassing to see US negotiators giving in to Russian maximalist demands. I have no idea why they think Ukraine will sign up to this surrender.

Warhammer 40k The Movie, if it was made by Cannon Films in the 1980s 😀 youtu.be/3u_xsXy0GzY?...

Either Trump has bowed to the inevitable on the Epstein report, or hes worked out with the DOJ what information will be redacted/omitted.

Install this & run - extremely cool. #claudecode #anthropic #epstein www.reddit.com/r/ClaudeAI/c...

There's this weird shorthand in Marvel films that everyone has a radio link to everyone else.

your dead AI mother loves you so much ❤️

Rockstar had better back down, this is an open and shut tribunal case. www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9nO...

Its ironic that for a white nationalist, Trump is incredibly bad at making life better for white people. Its almost as if it's all a smokescreen to further the interests of the rich.

Today I learned that the people who made the "You wouldn't steal a car" piracy ad never got permission to use the music that featured in it.

Oh god STOP BLOODY TOUCHING IT

Fuck Rockstar. The fired workers should be taking legal action. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

As much as I'm glad Mamdani won, I feel that the left in both the US and the UK might be making too much of it. This was a safe seat for the Democrats, whoever was their nominee was almost guaranteed to win. The wider country, both in the US and UK, is nowhere near as left wing.

The sight of Dick Cheney "speaking out" about Donald Trump will remain the most unselfware speech I've ever seen.

Bloody hell, I wouldn't want to be David Harbour right now

🧵I've posted them before, but here's my thread of horror/kids' TV double-bill cinema posters. Happy Halloween... #halloween #cinema #graphicdesign #poster

A double bill of The Running Man and Predtor Badlands, followed by an evening of drinking, lies in my future. Thats going to be a banging night.

Oh hell yes www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7dy...
