from today’s episode of the mighty Boon on RewindTV, FAO #DoctorWho fans:

Seventeen fucktons of applause to the entirety of this article

Hell yeah girl! Thanks for firing me!

The prime ministers of Norway, Sweden, and Finland have come forward with statements of solidarity with Denmark and Greenland.

The Prime Minister of Greenland Jens-Frederik Nielsen to the United States: “Enough is enough.”

First school night of 2026 so obviously me & mrs-me stay up till 2am watching North by Northwest Or as it should really be called, Basically West But With A Tiny Pinch Of North

A national disgrace.

Tell me we should trust AI to give us the facts. Tell me it's a future we can put our faith in. Come at me. I'm right here, waiting.

what is the last car you stopped to take a photo of? This iron man

Amazing. There is not much distance between this and a Viz parody.

Haul:

In what's now become an annual tradition, I've written another piece for The Gist about how and why I hate A.I. On a bubble about to burst, a future rotted to its core, and the limits of the Mrs Doyle Theory of artificial intelligence. www.thegist.ie/guest-gist-2...

They really have this delightful Gomez and Morticia vibe going on.

wait what always thought this was akin to getting three quotes for a job and sensibly plumping for the middle one, this is HUGE

Do you like BUSINESS? Do you like BOOZING? Do you like BROWN? -if so, then boy are YOU in for a treat:

You lucky, lucky people

These make me laugh 100% of the time

Ok so this is an insane thing and I am bookmarking it for my first day back in the office in 2026. Partly for the improved screen real estate available there compared to my phone, partly to infuriate my colleagues.

Big hugs to BBC4 for the last four hours full of John Le Carré archive repeat wholesomeness. I needed that.

Watching an old and rather shoddy Roger Corman flick, just clocked one of the leads is Robert Towne. Yep that’s right, the bloke who ended up scripting Chinatown, The Last Detail, The Parallax View etc. wrote AND acting in this B-movie for Corman, the great teacher that he was. Bless you, Roger.

Plus if you listen really hard you can hear me screaming in terror in the background near the end so, that’s a bonus

Everyone on a train who already has a cold/flu should go and sit in a special carriage, like the Quiet Coach but for quarantine. One sneeze and the conductor escorts you there in a hazmat suit

We didn't survive and thrive as a species because we had warriors or hunters - pretty much every omnivore can manage that. We did so because we developed Grandmothers, and domesticated Dogs. Community is what defines us as a species, and every "self-reliant" libertarian shitweasel be damned.

Search first name and glamour shot wait what

It’s half past midnight and everyone else here is asleep so naturally I have decided to go make a fleet of Battenberg Cheese On Toast. I love this time of year, where there is practically no such thing as a Bad Idea

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

I’ve no idea if this a standard thing that everyone does that I’ve just never heard of somehow or if I’m stood bearing witness at the cutting edge of culinary innovation, but my wife’s currently having a go at making curry out of stuffing Smells good

Starting occupancy of my house for Christmas dinner etc: 5 🧵

Happy Santa and his herpes day to all who celebrate

YES at long last

Once again thinking about the time Sinéad O'Connor attended an anti-Sinéad O'Connor demonstration in disguise 💛

The Buck stops here 😭 nypost.com/2025/12/17/e...

Never forget the time in 2020 Charlie Kirk (dead now) pretended to be a black guy on Twitter but forgot to switch accounts when giving himself a nice compliment.

He's brought shame upon the FIFA Peace Prize.

Just a quick note to let fellow aficionados of the Greatest Bit of Xmas Telly Ever™ know that I’ll be watching 1972’s Bernard Cribbins-hosted zero-viewer-ratings studiobound Trojan War musical extravaganza #GreatBigGroovyHorse this evening with a bunch of unsuspecting pals & am super-excited by this

every post is like i bet you didn’t know this absolutely wonderful thing about rob reiner and each one is different

Can someone please add the Doctor Who theme tune to this new opening title sequence please thanks

Christmas night: "But Santa, you've hardly touched your Zardoz cookies."

Andrew Ridgeley has the best life in the world because he was kind to the fat kid at school. We should all recall that.

In M&S buying jeans and wondering when they stopped selling old people clothes and started selling clothes for young hip people like myself

Michael C. Rockefeller got shipwrecked in 1963, washed up on an island, and was promptly eaten by cannibals.

The first time I saw Robin Ince on stage he read slowly and excellently from Doctor Who And The Giant Robot, and that told me all I needed to know about him.

Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.

An underappreciated aspect of modern life is that instead of struggling to meet your mates in the bewilderment of architecture that is Birmingham’s New Street Station you can now just say hey lads, I’ll be next to Ozzy the giant cyberpunk technocow

Top tip for surviving the playing of this record - sing along with gusto but replace the words of the title with ‘that’s what horses eat.’ (© @dadswoods.bsky.social )
