oh Giles 😭 gutted

from a 39 year old: you're cooked and you deserve it

Stewart Lee was brilliant tonight: "If you're unsure of which toilets you can use feel free to shit in a bag and mail it to Graham Linehan, he sorts through them by hand"

THIS. Do I worry about the effects of social media on my 11-year-old? Obviously yes. Do I think she should be banned from it any more than young men falling into the manosphere on Reddit, middle-aged ladies being dragged into transphobia on Mumsnet, or pensioners radicalised by Facebook? 100% no.

I don’t know who wrote this (sorry if it was you) but I saw someone a few days ago say “why is AI inevitable and not renewable energy” and it just really laser focussed the private sector money narrative for me. Corporate interests always. Anyway back to the treadmill everyone.

fond memories of being in the car on our family holiday in France as a kid, the radio on, and the DJ introducing the prodigy's "smack ma beeetch oop"

1. Golden Slumbers 2. Eleanor Rigby 3. And Your Bird Can Sing 4. The Long and Winding Road 5. Here Comes The Sun 6. She's Leaving Home 7. A Day In The Life 8. You Never Give Me Your Money 9. Get Back 10. Across The Universe

banning social media for under 16s is really fucking stupid when the only people who have their brains melted by it are the over 35 year olds and it just gets worse the older you get

“I don't understand what it's supposed to do. Every time I see a video on Instagram that's like, 'Hollywood is cooked,' what follows is, like, the most stupid dog shit I've ever seen in my life…”

HAPPY 31ST BIRTHDAY YES

BAN THE PERVERT GLASSES

hanna. watched it on a loop during a rough patch and tbh have not watched it since

it’s may the 4th 🫡

Screecher's Reach is (IMO!!!!) the best piece of star wars media after Rogue One and Andor

Alan Moore in the Observer Q&A today

Jews are not collectively responsible for Israeli government policy. People demonstrating peacefully for Palestine are not collectively responsible for the attacks on British Jews. Collective punishment for other people's crimes is not justice.

I'm so glad he's back

Film you've watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Star Trek, Star Wars, LOTR, DC, Marvel, Disney, Pixar, Spielberg, Cameron, Wachowskis, or Ghibli.

One of my stronger parenting beliefs is that if you offload storytime to AI you are failing as a parent and your kids will one day look back at those moments with disappointment

as much as i despise AI, i have to admit that it has made it possible for anyone, no longer just the very wealthy, to be a big adult baby who doesn't know how to interact with normal people and throws a fit whenever they don't get their way

I am going to be a massive humorless asshole about woo-woo shit, no matter how seemingly harmless, for the rest of my life due to this. astrology, homeopathic medicine, etc etc it's all bullshit and it's not fucking harmless. there are people who will die due to this who would have otherwise lived.

Happy 80th birthday to John Waters, seen here in the 1970s with Divine

without stating your age, post your favourite film released the year you turned 18

I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.

my letterboxd ethos

Happy Trans Day of Visibility ❤️🏳️‍⚧️❤️

Happy polio vaccine announcement anniversary. "There is no patent. Could you patent the sun?" remains one of the hardest remarks of all time. Kind of quote every child should be taught

Post a non-religious picture you think of as holy.

Dune some f1 jokes lol

Me: the Dune movies are flawed adaptations of flawed text, which are fun but lose some of what makes the books so engaging and, yes, frustrating Me, seeing Denis’ latest freaks on parade:

Happy Mother’s Day to all the amazing mammas out there who are working hard and just trying to look after their eggs.

This story is such a bad example of journalists *creating* news. They sent out a survey to 5,000 GPs. 752 replied. 540 said they’d never refused to give a fit note to someone who said they had mental health issues. 162 said they had refused, which is over a fifth. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

girls only want one thing and it's Connor MacLeod's apartment in Highlander

I've Gotta Feeling by Black Eyed Peas. The anthem of enforced fun.

Suede’s best lineup: Brett Anderson (vocals), Bernard Butler (guitar), Mat Osman (bass), Simon Gilbert (drums), Stephen Fry (euphonium), Ian McKellen (kazoo), Pam St Clement (vibes).

These are the 4 things AI can do well: •Clean up your email inbox (badly) •Give my shittiest neighbor (Alan) something to talk about at a party •Tell a 12 yr old to kill himself •Incinerate a school at 10:16 AM on a Tuesday You can see why we need to base our economy around it

uhhhh seems bad

People can debate AI all they like, but surely we can all agree that anyone who owns or uses a pair of the pervert glasses that secretly record people should be ostracised immediately and totally from our society? I'm sorry but your pervert glasses prove you're a pervert! Get out of town!

A billion dollars is the socio-economic equivalent of a loose nuke, and we should work to prevent the acquisition of the former with the same urgency and ruthlessness we use to prevent the acquisition of the latter.
