Still no

BBC inexplicably putting Farage's face on articles complaining about Reeves. It isn't so much client journalism as a Reform propaganda arm at this point.

Funny how most of the people worried about threats to democracy voted for someone who frequently admits to rigging the last election...

I saw Hump-Plumping Injectables support The Fall at Leeds Town Hall, 1983

How I log on to Bluesky

I'm reading my library book on my phone, like a philistine, and wishing I could hold up a little sign like Wile E. Coyote that says "I'm actually reading a book."

Had a sudden revelation... Hollywood has gone to shit because studios are treating YouTube breakdowns and internet trolling as market research. They're cancelling great shows with high viewing figures because they're getting review bombed by racist bot factories...

I often feel a bit guilty of being a basic dad and reading Jack Reacher books, but I just read one of the more recent ones where Reacher meets a gang of neo Nazis and thinks about his French mum growing up during the occupation while beating the shit out of them.

My DM for my 5e campaign gave my swords bard a luck stone. He now has +9 deception at level 3. For some reason, the stone is a cat. I have named him Gerald.

If anyone ever claims a correlation between wealth and intelligence, notice they are only now STARTING to question if AI isn't all it was claimed to be

Name a TV show you’re positive no one remembers but you.

I really feel like they should have made Extraction 3 by now.

NO I DONT WANT TO USE YOUR AI CHATBOT! GIVE ME A REAL PERSON WHO SPEAKS TO ME QUICKLY AND IN MONOTONE WHO SOLVES THE ISSUE IN 3 MINUTES FLAT

This assumes that fat people are fat because of what they eat instead of it being a deep biological issue. (Source: me. Turns out you can be fat off healthy food when your body screams you’re hungry at you all the time)

Question for like the 3 Critters I know on here as Reddit is a dark and lawless place: How long is campaign 4 going to be, as I've heard a couple comments suggesting the soldiers and seekers are done? Brennan's on contract and they really should switch to Daggerheart, so is it going to be short?

I was once asked to interview Tim Roth for my blog. I turned it down because my blog was embarrassingly dumb, so they tried to offer me the chance to meet Elon Musk's ex.

AI demonstrably doesn't work. It never worked. It will never work. It's like the whole world has been scammed and rather than admit it, they are insisting there REALLY IS a Nigerian prince and they will definitely get their money soon.

You know what I particularly love about tokusatsu transformation scenes? When the device that they use to trigger the transformation creates a receptacle to insert itself into. It doesn't expand to create stuff around it, it doesn't change into the complete thing, it creates its own socket.

We laughed at Ellis at the time but little did we realise that the Ellises of the world would end up taking over America & start a war with Iran.

Star Trek is dead. But it needs a break. It came back and came back big. Rest it. Let it need to exist rather than purely for corporate reasons. trekmovie.com/2026/03/03/f...

Please do not mess around with the big rock in the sky that makes the oceans work

one wild thing about AI hype is that if we said “we made a way for ppl with no knowledge of engineering to build a bridge instantly!” surely ppl would see the issue, but when it comes to digital infrastructure everyone is like “perfect, can’t wait to drive my vibe-coded car over it”

If you're playing a game that has a large group of companions, and you don't go around and speak to them after every mission, I think you're a monster

Me posting my hot take on Bluesky

I think what I enjoy so much about the Netflix Harlan Coben adaptations is that these are sordid stories of betrayal, murder, drugs, gang crime, and shootouts, and Netflix has, for some reason, decided to relocate them to Essex.

They all do this. And it feels like a reflection on the humans behind them, whose inflated careers are built on never admitting they don’t know the answer. The ‘smartest people in the room’ if ‘smart’ just means glib and facile, turning out lies with complete conviction.

Idris Elba makes so many Sky ads that when he turns up in a film, I wonder if his character likes Sky.

Forced to use AI at work, hate it. Usage is monitored so I can't avoid it. I've set up mine to play a Sim City clone. It burns through tokens, making crap cities that quickly go bankrupt. Just been told that I'm getting a bonus for being a top user.

This reads like the title of a @chucktingle.bsky.social book...

What if you crossed Weekend At Bernie’s with Doctor Strangelove?

went in and clipped this part of the movie. i love the haunted soundscape here, it's like someone went in an arcade microdosing acid and stared at a wall and wrote down what they were hearing

App pop-up: "What is your overall opinion of this brand and do you remember seeing an advert for it in the last month, and would you like to see this old TV show on streaming?" Me:

Thank you the Missus Wife @gailmyerscough.co.uk xx

Hey Laura. Shut up. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

for the nth time I wish to point out that absolutely all of this could have been avoided if the American people had been able to overcome their racism and sexism sufficiently to vote for a (very moderate actually!) Black woman, but they couldn't and so here we are.

This is the mindset of modern mainstream politics in a nutshell. Labour and the Tories believe they're above the electorate and once they're in power they can do whatever they want and the public should just shut up and be ruled. After decades of this is it any wonder that they're being abandoned

The whole purpose of AI is to replace people with things that don't complain. It doesn't even make any sense, but they are being very clear about it.

Doesn't involve fucking writing either.

Loads of classic Westerns going off streaming this weekend, so I've been speedrunning a few with my son. He is now a confirmed Sergio Leone fan, but thought Magnificent Seven was just okay... so, partial success?
