I don't understand how SquareSpace can sponsor so many YouTube videos when nobody makes websites anymore.

Do people get called noobs these days?

All this groundbreaking research about autism coming out of the US is impressive, but when is RFK going to start announcing the cause of this walking brain death that the Trump administration collectively has?

Why wouldn't Starmer have confidence in Mandelson as US ambassador? He and Trump clearly have a lot in common.

I'd argue that the creepy silhouette in the scrubbed version is way more effective than the original.

Jesus Christ, I barely made it through the *trailer* for John Candy: I Like Me. I don't stand a chance with the whole thing.

You'd be surprised how often the song Wild Wild West swirls around my brain, but every time it makes me think of this.

I had to look at a YouTube Short earlier and the AI upscaling on the thing was horrific. The kind of shit that Topaz spits out when you use default settings. Like, if you're one of the biggest tech companies in the world at least figure out upscaling before pushing it live. It's just embarrassing.

I forgot that Cardi B makes an appearance in Fast and Furious 9, delivering all her lines like Tommy Wiseau.

Reading up on the XBox Ally and trying to imagine the "why would I buy this if I already have a Steamdeck??" commenters going about their days. "Why are Pepsi selling drinks when I'm not even thirsty?" Driving by a forecourt of used cars screaming "who is this foooorrr??"

That new Twenty One Pilots song is very catchy. It's just a shame my brain keeps defaulting to "he's putting on a gun show". 💪

I couldn't possibly comment on whether Noel Clarke would use his position of power to do gross things, but I do know that when I saw him promoting his own film yeeeaaars ago he came across as an arrogant cunt. 🤷‍♂️

Remember when we were always told we need knowledge of history to avoid repeating the mistakes? I do wonder whether people would have naturally rediscovered their nazi lifestyles without the textbooks to guide them, though...

I love how many times in Furious 7 Shaw's go-to move is to just lob a grenade at the problem. Works, though.

Finally a good use for "AI". Not the face scan to estimate an age, but the ability for me to generate the face of a non-existent 60 year old so that when third-party services eventually get compromised they won't have a photo of me next to my email address.

Nothing quite keeps the kids safe like having them install various malware disguised as "free VPN" software. Especially if that malware gains access to their webcam moments before they find a way to bypass the age check.

Oh, turns out you can remove the word "policies" and it still kinda works?

I've finally decided to do something about my "Music" folder, packed with decades of collected MP3s. I'm chipping away by revisiting albums I haven't heard in years to decide whether I want to upgrade the quality or just delete them. So far they have either been meh or proper shit.

I love the n-Day Streak "achievement" on Reddit because when I see it pop up in the corner it's a friendly little reminder for me to take a couple of days off.

Is there some kind of secret to unlocking film reviews on Letterboxd? They seem to want to portray themselves as Mubi while the reviews for The Godfather will be like "mmm cannoli" (5 stars) At this rate I'm getting better insight into whether something is worth watching from IMDB. Fucking IMDB!

I forgot how much more entertaining 2 Fast 2 Furious is if you bring the headcanon that the real history of Brian and Roman is that they were once lovers. "He did the stare and drive on you, didn't he? He got that from me."

Imagine how embarrassed Lorde is going to be if it turns out some fans just got the plastic protector from the top of the CD-R spindle. 😬

The tiniest fly has entered my room and somehow sounds like it's blasting a kazoo point blank into my face. What a shit.

Oh no. I watched the Bob Vylan stream when it was live on iPlayer and now I've killed a bunch of the IDF because of peer pressure. 😭

I love how the first Fast and Furious film really is ctrl+f "surfboard", replace with "car".

I can't believe Huw Stephens just embarrassed himself live on air by claiming that The Cribs' "Hey Scenesters!" is 20 years old now, despite it only coming out in 2005. 🥲

Maybe I'm just dead inside but I don't think I've ever found anything as funny as the woman in a neighbour's garden seems to be finding something. Some real fucking scream laughing at 11pm into all of our open bedroom windows. Maybe that's what she finds so funny. The thought of keeping us awake.

I think Deftones' "Passenger" might be my favourite song about dogging.

Sometimes I struggle to go to sleep because my brain keeps saying "look at that horse", Beyonce-style. Just like now.

How the fuck is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon only 42?! Hate really ages a person, huh?

It's not that I don't like Pulp songs, it's that they actively make me angry. They're so boring and he sounds so weak and bored. I just don't understand how people can be so basic.

I can't imagine living in a fully AI powered home. Not because AI is fundamentally shit (it is) but because I always feel like a right twat when I talk to my Google Home.

Any time a representative for Israel calls someone/something "Hamas" when really they just have a working set of eyes and brain I immediately think of Doc Brown's "Everybody's Racist". www.youtube.com/watch?v=JrK_...

I hate that Israel came second in #Eurovision because now it can be glossed over. They should have won. Let all those cunt votes have consequences.

I did that thing again where I sit in silence after an album has finished, but then the secret track comes on 10 mins later and I shit my pants.

Oh man, if you're mad about what those guys did to the Sycamore Gap tree wait until you find out what Israel is up to...

People criticise Marvel for ruining the film industry but they didn't force people to the cinema or stop other studios making different genres. HOWEVER, a trailer for Thunderbolts just said "the best Marvel movie since Avengers Endgame" and that distain for their "underperforming" films is gross.

Looking for a tech job during this AI bubble is like trying to find a nice spot to sit down in the park that isn't littered with dogshit.

I loved Val Kilmer's doc when I saw it but I always remember one part. He's being filmed by his son while getting ready and, in a weakened state, collapses. His son asks "are you okay?" as the camera is dumped nearby. It then cuts to Val, still on the floor, laughing. Totally faked it. What a shit.

I always get a moment of confusion when I see an image of Underworld's Karl Hyde before I realise that the face I was expecting to see actually belongs to Paul Foot.

Kind of love that Marvel's solution to oversaturating their franchise to a point of exhaustion is to oversaturate a single cast list.

Remember when Louis Theroux was on a picket with the Westboro knobs and one of the kids got nailed in the head with a slushie? It was ultimately harmless but made you irate not at the thrower but at the dickheads who put their kids there? Anyway, someone needs to milkshake the Musks.

Also pretty gross that Jordan Peterson is at Cardiff arena this year. Here's hoping he misjudges the "quiet" road outside Cineworld and is taken on an impromptu journey up the multistorey while crossing.

I can't believe I forgot to get tickets to see Louis CK in Cardiff. I was planning on jerking it in the crowd and loudly lambasting anyone who had a problem with it.

@rianjohnson.bsky.social Hello. Were you once in an advert for Zoog Disney? 🤔

My favourite thing about the modern internet is how I have to tell every website that I'm a real boy before I'm allowed to look at it.

Elon Musk at the White House has the exact same energy as Salt Bae at the World Cup final.

I'm fine, thank you.

One of my favourite places when we lived in London. 😬

But anyway, let's hope America keeps up that Luigi mindset.
