Just saw this old ad for Concrete: Strange Armour shared on Facebook. I've never seen it before. Wish I had a poster of it, it's brill.

Just saw a screenshot of Glinner posting "stop ruining tits" while retweeting the photo & username of a trans woman who didn't appear to be interacting with him in any way. For some reason my thoughts turn to the time not so long ago when Richard Ayoade referred to him as "a man of great principle".

I always assumed that Lex's armour was designed by George Perez, but I Googled it & found a Wiki (superman.fandom.com/wiki/Lexoria...) claiming that it was designed by Kirby & refined by Perez. Does anyone know if this true? It certainly seems plausible. Either way, great to see Hoult wearing it.

Fit check. Live from the set of Man of Tomorrow.

I need whoever owns Google (Ian Google?) to pay me back for all the extra time in work I spend typing -reddit.com -x.com -Facebook.com -quora.com -Instagram.com while researching something.

I could not agree more with this.

Nobody Does It Better You Know My Name Live and Let Die Honorable mention to All Time High because I love it but I'm slightly embarrassed that I love it.

Top of the Pops (31st May 1979). Sparks have The Number One Song In Heaven (although it's currently at number 14 in the hit parade).

Nic Cage is doing a lot of Nic Cage-ing in SpiderNoir and I'm enjoying it very much.

In anticipation of the Brainiac Reborn Omnibus coming out this month I'm going to re-read some of the stories that precede it, which also happen to be some of the greatest Superman stories ever told.

This is spot-on. It reminds me me of Johnson being asked about hobbies and having to toss out a half-arsed lie on the spot about painting buses or something. They all pontificate about values and culture but they believe in nothing and they love nothing.

Four episodes into SpiderNoir & it's really good. It's got something of the "SurfDracula" about it - Cage barely does any Spider-Man stuff - but it's actually better when he's just doing gumshoe stuff.

Hello Russell this is your lawer speaking. I am advising you today to please keep writing these booky wooks.

A simply devastating read

And he's right to say it.

Four twists/reveals/shock moments from comics that are burned into your brain. Don't overthink it. #comicsdna

#LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched 1. I watched this for the first time very recently but just had to rewatch it cos it's so great. 2. "What the hell do you expect, your foot's on fire!" 3. Just some bollocks to kill 90 minutes. 4. Okay but really should have been much better.

I've just written a bit in an upcoming Planetarium show where we discuss NASA's moonbase plan, & I'm suddenly very glad that I've avoided specific dates when discussing the predicted timeline.

Paramount+ wanted to use the image on the left as a poster for the wrath of Khan, so they used everyone's least favorite technology to generate the rest of the image.

🎶I was watching Question Time on the BBC, I was feeling rather randy, And who was introduced by Fiona Bruce, If it wasn't me old mate, Gandhi...🎶

Bought this today. Quite enjoying how silly it is. It's basically, what if the stories of the USA were wrapped up in the type of magic & mythology that's usually reserved for European countries. George Washington is an evil wizard!

While this Ventriloquist and Scarface cosplay I just saw on Instagram is undoubtedly excellent work, all I can see is Kenny Cantor carrying Tony Hancock.

Just saw the trailer for Superman Returns on TikTok & realised that this July it'll be 20 years (!) since it was released. I saw it 3 times at the pictures & wrote an an indignant letter to the Guardian after one of their columnists slagged it off. :D I still love that movie to this day.

I once corrected Will Self's spelling of the word 'Aquaman.'

Just when you thought you'd seen it all

Tony Blair's back with some fresh new ideas for the government I see.

I enjoyed the second RTD era a lot, but in retrospect, packing your new Disney era of Doctor Who with: - villains from 1966, 1973, 1985, & a 1980 comic strip - a companion from 1986 - complicated new regeneration lore - the resolution of plot threads from 2008 was proper mad wasn't it.

My pitch for the next series of Reacher: Alan Ritchson snatches the phone from the hands of anyone using TikTok or making video calls on the bus and throws it out of the bus window. 25 hour long epsiodes of just that.

Just reading the wiki for the Left Behind novels and discovered that the main character is named "Rayford" and his raptured son was called "Raymie". Sadly the author was too cowardly to give Rayford a daughter named "Raybelline" and a father named "Raybraham".

A livestream of a volcano in the Philippines captured a meteor crashing to Earth today. What are the odds? Mayon Volcano, Location: Albay, Luzon, Philippines

Am scientist. Can confirm.

I went through a period of recreating my dreams with Photoshop. They included a general condemning me in the House of Commons for saying he looked like John Le Mesurier, me showing David Cameron how to use a supermarket, & a UK X-Files rip-off from the 90s called Everclear starring Craig Charles.

The reason certain people are still on Twitter or complain how this place isn’t Twitter is because for a brief amount of time Twitter allowed specialty journalists, opinion writers, pundits, etc a chance to feel somewhat famous, or that they actually had influence, and they miss that like heroin.

Another day, another journalist chastising Bluesky users for not sacrificing our peace of mind to the discourse god.

It's weird how well Smiths songs work as Star Trek episode titles.

In which a Kirk, Spock, Bones, and some random ensign with a beehive wig beam down to a planet where society has been based on @madeley.bsky.social's posts.

He's going to go golfing that day isn't he.

Yeah the crew are going to barbecue to death from exposure to interplanetary radiation leaving this guy, as @paulgcornish.bsky.social has pointed out before, screaming at invisible monkeys in a cosmic recasting of the end of Aguirre, The Wrath Of God.

Needless to say, Van Gogh has already shown us what he "wanted us to see." But to see the positions of the constellation, planet, & Moon that inspired him you can set Stellarium (free astronomy software) to late June 1889 just before sunrise in Provence, France & look towards the East. No AI needed.

Trans people have been around your whole life. You’ve been sharing bathrooms with them your whole life. They’ve been in your communities your whole life. They’ve even been playing sport your whole life. And you didn’t care *at all* till a few years ago when every right wing org decided you should

Once more for those at the back: There is NO WAY to reliably identify trans people, and certainly no dignified and respectful way to ask any person to prove their sex in a public facility. This will just cause harm to trans people and to cisgender people who don’t conform to gender stereotypes.
