Do we think 7.5 is too young for the Lord of the Rings trilogy? I've been wanting to introduce my son to the movies for a while and this year is the 25th anniversary. But are the battles too gory or the scary bits too scary?

Over the last couple of weeks I've accidentally become obsessed with Deep Rock Galactic. #RockAndStone

When you see disaster coming... Warn a brother

My feed is currently a hilarious mix of "ah shit WB is about to be a ridiculous media monopoly" and "Live Nation is about to get absolutely destroyed for being a ridiculous media monopoly".

"On your way out, if you wanna kill somebody, that would help me a lot."

Wow. Remember all that swamp draining talk? I guess we know where the bilgewater ended up.

Unless The Boy got a phone in secret or I've got some unknown love child out there somewhere, this is probably spam. I obviously can't condone it, but if anyone wanted to sign them up for all the lists then I couldn't stop you.

Share a TV show that raised you.

This is dumb. I think that's obvious. I'm RTing to say that I really don't like referring to falling birth rates as "fertility rates". There's a big difference between *choosing* not to have kids and not *being able* to have kids. I still blame capitalism for both, but they're not the same.

Guys, I think I'm ready for the snow to be done. It's mostly been nice, very picturesque, but it's time for it to go.

Last night we played Nemesis Retaliation and actually completed the game! And by "completed" I really mean "1 of us made it out alive and once again I was the last man standing, hilariously running away from a bunch of aliens only to die in the actual escape room" 🤣

The Olympics has a lot to answer for. I'm watching hockey. HOCKEY! #LetsGoCanada

If they're so set on AI, why don't they have Copilot run things for a while? If they're going to force it on us, they should at least experience it for themselves.

Bad news: the pedal(s) I wanted were already sold before I got there. Good news: I got a used mic stand and it was pretty cheap. "Good" news: I *may* have bought a totally different pedal. 😬

Yo, this mountain lion has been the exact same expression that I did when they said they'd give me a CD.

I have some money in my PayPal account but I'm torn about which thing is most urgent. ▪️ A good mic stand (for music livestreams?) ▪️ The cool pedals in tomorrow's sale (for album recording) ▪️ A Bluray/DVD burner

Oh no, Ubisoft has told me that unless I prove I'm over 18 (my account is still apparently UK-based) they'll have to limit chat to people on my friends list. Please watch as I rush to upload my passport so that complete strangers can send me unsolicited messages on a platform I don't use.

I found a DVD player! My old 2012 Macbook Pro reminding me why I haven't sold it yet 😀

Holy shit, Brandi Carlile put on an amazing gig. She was loving every minute of that stage and it showed.

Maybe I genuinely am depressed. I just realised I've had Nirvana's "Something in the Way" going round my head all afternoon 😬

Oh my god that guy is never going to recover from this 🤣

My wife and I were supposed to be going to see Brandi Carlile tonight, but thanks to a foot of snow (probably) stopping my brother-in-law coming to babysit, I'm probably not going. But she can't seem to find anyone else willing to brave the weather, so maybe neither of us is going. Boo.

Holy shit. I just called my ultrasound place to ask how I can get my results for my upcoming osteopath appointment. They're giving me a CD. A compact disc. In the year of our lord 2026. What am I supposed to do with that? We have no physical media devices in this house! I hope the osteo does.

This video is kind of what it's like inside my head all the time.

Has anyone ever given their explanation of *how* a wealth tax could possibly hurt working people? Because I swear if they use the phrase "trickle down" at any point I will trickle piss down their faces.

Oh no. The big music store chain is having another big sale on Friday and our local branch has 2 guitar pedals I want. But also I have no money. Please send help.

If you haven't already seen it, and you have Apple TV, I really recommend Murderbot. I just finished it last night and it's good silly fun 😀

Right, it's time to embrace more PC physical media. I'm not exactly sure how I'll do that, but it's definitely time to buy a Bluray writer.

I made the worst joke a few days ago and it only really works spoken out loud. But I'm sharing it here anyway. It's always "Timothy Chalamet", but never "Timothy Chalawill". #SorryNotSorry

I swear to God, if you're young enough to not know what this means, please do not look it up. Just accept your good fortune and move on. Your life will be better.

Valentine's Day is always a tough one for our household, because it's the day my mother-in-law passed away. Very mixed emotions here.

Ya boi is on his way to an open mic night. Not to perform this time, just to watch. But, like, how do normal people just get up and head out at 7pm? By this point I've normally given up on leaving the house for the rest of the day 😀

Ooh, I think I might have kind of accidentally finished the lyrics for a song that I didn't even mean to work on today. Sometimes the surprises life gives you are good ones.

THIS is the internet I miss.

God damn it, now I have the Dawson's Creek theme song stuck in my head.

I'm genuinely sad to hear about James Van Der Beek. He seemed like a decent guy. I'm even going to resist posting the crying Dawson gif out of respect. I hope everyone appreciates that.

Shocking news: Known piece of shit found to also be completely different piece of shit.

I'm not sure how fast these things are supposed to have an effect, but so far 54mg is doing exactly the same as 36mg did. By which I mean absolutely nothing.

This seems totally normal and definitely can't have any negative consequences.

This looks awesome!

Gah. Now my therapist thinks I might be suffering from depression, which is getting in the way of my ADHD strategies. I'd prefer to only have one type of chemical imbalance at a time, thank you very much.

This might be a better angle.

It doesn't quite show the size in this photo (it's about 8 feet long) but this icicle is some Final Destination shit.

It would be nice if they could get into the law a line that says the people who voted for it are liable when the sites get hacked and people's IDs get stolen.

Apparently my son has been using my whiteboard 🤣

I'll take it 😀
