How there aren't 25 minutes of additional time in the arsenal game is beyond me

Not what I was hoping for when approaching the year, half the distance and about two thirds off the pace. Roll on 2026!

Guillermo del Toro: "I've taken some liberties in adapting the Mary Shelly novel, I hope everyone understands." Ishiro Honda: "Frankenstein the deathless will fight a burrowing dinosaur with a glowing horn and radiation breath, signifying mankind will never understand the monsters we create."

With Bardot's passing, the only named individuals in Billy Joel's We Didn't Start The Fire that are still alive are Bobby Davro, Roy "Chubby" Brown and Bernie Clifton. The last one standing will claim The Prize.

Also nobody can carve their name for shot these days, unlike the elegant serifs of 19th century graffiti artists

another robot highlight for 2025: man wearing humanoid mocap suit kicks himself in the balls

Thankful I got my teeth fixed when I was a teenager 😁

Never seen him so happy

Kier Starmer vows “to do what Dickens couldn’t” and kill Tiny Tim

You can tell that LotR was written by an academic because Gandalf disappears for like 20 years doing research to answer a single question.

After a remarkably underwhelming day of terrestrial TV offerings, BBC2 are attempting to make amends from 21.15 onwards with possibly the first showing of 'Jaws' on any of the BBC channels - which thankfully means no ad breaks - followed by the documentary 'Jaws @ 50: The Definitive Inside Story'.

Lol, I arbitrarily put my games on sale for Christmas on steam and just realized you can get both of my games for £2.38/$3.21 Didn't mean to put them on for so low but to hell with it Merry Christmas everyone! store.steampowered.com/bundle/51136...

6:45 wake up. That's something I could have done with many years in the past

I was only trying to see how to show battery percentage, not summon a succubus or anything. Honest.

Just want to point out that this man was leading the whole Turning Point USA crowd in prayer last week. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crim...

Blimey! That would be quite something if correct.

This explains some of the very very good deals in Waitrose (other supermarkets are available; I just live round the corner from one). £15+ off a £40 bottle good...

Y’all know we have a tool for finding exactly these kinds of bad redactions, right? free.law/open-source-...

Happy holidays, everyone! And thank you to everyone I've discussed sci-fi stuff with here this year, it's been great. And thank you to the creators, storytellers, artists. And thank you to my Patreon subscribers! In short, thank you. 🖖

lol lmao this government will stop at nothing to fold for people who are never going to vote for them

Both the boys have failed to acquire any gifts for their mother. Cover me lads, I'm going xmas shopping :(

Community. Note.

2 entries for Traitors and no Welcome to Derry, Down Cemetary Road, or many others. *sigh*

Was at a Christmas party with a load of clergy last night and as some people were leaving they found a person collapsed on the street outside so the Verger took over and called an ambulance and sent all the clergy away because "if they wake up surrounded by priests that'll just make things worse"

Legendary subterfuge that all b3ta members will remember

I genuine fret over whether it would be fast food delivery companies or betting companies that I would grind into dust on my first day as dictator of the UK. Suspect banning gambling ads would bankrupt every broadcast commercial TV channel at a minimum.

I like to imagine that there is a rivalry between two top ham-sniffers: one, a meticulous keeper of precise traditions, the other a brash bad-boy with a colossal nose.

This popped up in my Google Photos and it made me chuckle

Roses are red, Ditto carnations...

Metalhead friend sent me this. Morning all

One of the children at work depressed me recently by saying he always gets Woody Harlson and Jason Statham confused because they both have short hair. I despair.

Found a video of me using a Blackberry Keyone. Don't remember ever owning one but apparently I did.

Found the actual men in women's bathrooms assaulting women.

Google Gemini Pro: please generate a map of the western united states showing cities of over 250K population

say what you will about Andrew Tate, but his decision to not have a chin likely saved his life in that fight. Just one of those uppercuts would've killed Bruce Campbell.

Paddington Bear becoming the UK's go-to psychopomp is one of the very weirdest things to happen in this very weird decade.

A fun Christmas breakfast is Baileys poured over Ferrero Rocher. I call it Executive Coco Pops.

🧵 Not had a great year for various reasons, but managed to make a few fun things I’m happy with... 1. Styscraper vole.wtf/styscraper/ OK, so it hasn’t set the world on fire & been a smash hit, but it’s a nicely balanced game & @dochackenbush.bsky.social did amazing work

It's a good job parliament's magazine didn't carry a piece about the threat to life caused by underinvestment in canal infrastructure this year, a warning subsequently covered by national media. Oh wait www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I'm watching The Wrong Trousers and it's bonkers to watch it now, since a provincial museum in the north of England in an animation from 1993 has better security than the Louvre.

“Windmills interfere with radar” is even dumber than “solar power only works during the daytime.”

Anyone else who knows me and uses retroachievements, cough: retroachievements.org/user/pintofs...

I’m reminded of watching two old ladies ask a teenage goth for directions and she politely told them and when she was out of earshot one lady said “You know where you are with a goth”
