Iggy Pop and Mick Jagger seeing Kid Rock's dodgy lyrics come back to haunt him.

The contempt these people have for places they deem provincial as soon as those places refuse to be symbolic vehicles for white populism

"Can I just shock you? I was never a close friend of Peter Mandelson."

"Can I just shock you? I was never a close friend of Peter Mandelson."

Absolutely shocked to learn that Elon Musk has abandoned his plan to *checks notes* build cities for indentured servants on a toxic, freezing, rust planet that he intended to make habitable by detonating nukes at the poles.

Remember when Britain had Prime Ministers that lasted longer than your average incarnation of Doctor Who?

In year 7 Welsh our teacher made us watch this & then tasked us with writing & performing our own rap. Not gonna lie, it may be what put me off rap music for life.

I hate that this ket-addled flim-flam artist is so synonymous with space science that I have to keep track of whatever phoney-baloney promises he's making just in case we're asked about it at work.

I pretty much agree with all of this.

It’s a very Catholic coded movie, really. Two guys raging at a deified figure because he didn’t do enough, because he’s a proxy for their dead parents and/or let them die

It's BACKWARDS Excalibur is the crazy thing to me. Superman-as-Arthur gets Mordred'd at the START of the story, which is what prompts Batman-as-Lancelot to have hot sweaty grief sex with Lois-as-Guinevere and so on

Gonna watch Batman v Superman today, because as the only person in the world* who thinks it's great, it's my duty. *apart from all the Snyder-bros, I'm not like them, I promise.

From a few years ago, an idea for social media content that my work rejected (they were correct do so): Geoff the Unlucky Astronaut.

Thanks for your help with this folks. Some great recommendations!

So far 2026 feels like I've been cursed by a witch.

What tracks do I need to add to my playlist of Bob Dylan covers? tidal.com/playlist/d4f...

5 months old yet still topical.

This was a massive disappointment. I wasn't exactly expecting Watchmen, but if you make a comic where Superman fights Homelander & you fail to show Superman delivering unto Homelander the most righteous, satisfying, cathartic battering of his career then IMO you have failed.

This week I gave a Wings album that's never been one of my faves another go and I've become utterly obsessed with this weird prog-funk-sea shanty. tidal.com/track/195408...

In honour of Melania, here's a reminder that the thing Kane is applauding in this popular gif isn't good. It's very bad! It's his wife singing poorly in an opera he paid for.

Got Absolute Batman vol.2 today so I'm reading the series from the start again. What stands out the most to me about this interpretation of Batman is @nickdragotta.bsky.social's decision to draw him as a terrifyingly huge man with a child's face. That's Bruce Wayne in a nutshell to me. It's perfect.

See, what this person's done here is mistake all British people for The Penguin. Easily done.

Went to my parents' house yesterday & retrieved the book that introduced me as a child to the Fantastic Four. This book of recoloured reprints of Lee & Kirby stories left such an impression on me that whenever I read a comic where Klaw is correctly coloured red & purple, it feels wrong.

I can't believe how good Wonder Man was. It's great to know that Marvel can still do stuff that doesn't feel like one long post-credit scene made exclusively for nostalgia-addled TikTok influencers.

Are people still talking about how wonderful and lovely the queen was when she was literally covering up for her literal paedophile son who literally abused children. That she knew about it and pretected him, using the fortune she stole from all of us to do it.

Happy birthday to my favourite comics writer of all time, Grant Morrison.

Union workers solved the trolley problem, you're welcome

RIP Catherine O'Hara. Hard not to take every talented actor, writer, and musician who dies before Trump as a complete pisstake on God's part, frankly.

Paul's stairway gallery, featuring some of my favourite comics book covers.

If the solar system is constantly moving through space and we can use telescopes to look at stars from billions of years ago. If we look in the right direction will we be able to see our solar system in the past?

Last night I got to present a show in a planetarium for the first time in two and a half years. There's no feeling like it! 💫

Still the greatest video ever made. Sorry. I don't make the rules...

*Strong Bristol accent* "Who remembers the A-Team? Good Times!"

Had a rubbish day today but on the plus side this masterpiece came for me in the post.

Watched the first two episodes of Wonder Man and it may be the best thing Marvel have done for years. Delighted to hear that Coronation Street exists in the MCU.

Guess who's got tickets to see Sparks in June. This will be the fourth time. At what point does it become stalking?

Great comic day today! Iron Man #1 by @joshuawilliamson.bsky.social was very good indeed. I've enjoyed the past few Iron Man runs but this felt like the most spot-on depiction of Tony that we've had for a while. Also, I found more 70s/80s Action Comics, including the first appearance of Vixen.

Imagine being such a bastard that people win awards for telling others how much of a bastard you are.

Over on Reddit people are sharing all the moments in the various Alan Partridge episodes, books, and podcasts where Alan seems genuinely happy, and it's such a brilliant thread. He's such a great character. I'm reading it on the bus with a big smile on my face. www.reddit.com/r/AlanPartri...

If there are any #Bristol #Beer fans with any advice about this I would be very grateful.

My sisters have asked me to buy some fruity IPA beers that you can only get in Bristol for my dad's birthday. I know nothing about beer. Does anyone have any recommendations?
