Someone on this bus several rows ahead just shouted back to me “What you eating?” and I said “Sausage roll!”, lifting up my Greggs bag with a polite smile. What I *should* have said was “None of your fucking business!” with the same polite smile.

Tim Curry, the absolute legend, turns 80 today. This man took huge swings.

everything is terrible so here’s mamdani and obama laughing and reading to kids to soothe your soul

i’m such a stupid fucking mark for trying to “work” and “follow the law”

It’s illustrative to recognise when the Guardian uses the word investment (straightforward handing over cash to the private sector) and when it uses spending (welfare, public sector wages)

Daredevil: Born Again, s2e5 … fucking hell, THAT is television!

finally a reason to live

No But SERIOUSLY Why is Peter Crouch in EVERY fucking advert???

Boom! 💥 youtu.be/q6sa6pWz1NQ

Another story shoutout - The Tin Can Society ( @imagecomics.com ) Astonishing work from cover to cover. Flows like a prestige TV miniseries. An incredible murder mystery set in a superhero sandbox. Flavours of Stand By Me and Watchmen. Wonderful characters, gorgeous artwork on all fronts.

The famous Andor line is that "tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle." Here is a perfect example of that through malicious compliance: Idaho forced the city of Boise to remove its Pride flags. So the city painted rainbows everywhere else.

A suspected nonce is about to end the world to distract us all from the paperwork that proves he’s genuinely a nonce. I hate this timeline.

This summer - a hot night of non-stop electropop, with TV's Hacker T. Dog hosting! The Cuban Boys will play their hit (and all the other John Peel faves), the Pound Shop Boys will do Fireman Sam (and some surprises), and we'll top off this cabaret of carnage. www.eventbrite.com/e/spray-x-cu...

Saw this show in Manchester last night and it was the most wholesome waddle through whimsy one could ask for. Clever and expertly-constructed stand-up…but best of all, just plain daft. Witness this man! Witness him!!!

A pregnant pause should be when it takes you 9 months to answer.

Your friend gets hurt in an attack on the moors and you find out his nurse is American Werewolf-era Jenny Agutter, who reads to him and takes him home. After he recovers, how badly are you willing to injure yourself to be admitted to that same hospital and have Jenny take care of you?

wouldn't it be funny if EVERYONE blocked this Attie AI account @ bsky.app/profile/atti... before they could do anything with it

Had this album on a loop for WEEKS.

This is the only Harry Potter argument worth making It wouldn't matter if Harry Potter was a singular, unmatched work of genius. Giving Rowling money is actively making the world a worse place and killing trans folks. There's no book good enough or nostalgic enough for that to be worth it.

Dipping a toe in the HP discourse here: if you can’t, as an adult, give up Harry Potter, you’re pathetic. You’re a whiny baby who can’t survive without their nostalgia binky. You stink, and you should feel bad about it

If the biggest entertainment company on Earth thinks an AI slop chop shop is so undeniable that they drop their slam dunk copyright lawsuit to invest a billion bucks instead, and months later it goes bankrupt, maybe eeeevery company falling over themselves to invest in this crap is wrong? (they are)

Incredibly funny that the president of the United States can do this and retain command of the American Armed Forces, but I said it about a literal Nazi and got fired from a job writing superhero comics.

Remember when people were fired for *reposting* accurate quotes from Charlie Kirk after he was killed.

Professors & university staff were targeted & fired for less than this just a few months ago.

TV sketch comedy is a dying art and making a UK version of arguably the most ‘more miss than hit’ live sketch show in existence ain’t gonna do the genre any favours.

At the moment the trend in scripted British telly is big, bulky prestige shows with dependable genres and big expensive stars. I think it's clear that if broadcasters want to compete with streamers and socials, they need to include at least SOME cheap, nimble, characterful and niche productions.

We have hiss-off! Episode 1 of THE SNAKE BOYS SHOW 🐍🐍🐍 is now live on YouTube and wherever you get podcasts. This month, @atomcrowley.bsky.social, @tpneenan.bsky.social and @johnrain.co.uk suggest 9 TV shows that they think people be sleeping on. Episode 1: www.youtube.com/watch?v=oi58...

Transphobia is a cancer of the heart and mind. It is a useless fear, based on ignorance and cruelty. Trans people are not responsible for a single one of the problems we face. Do the world a favor and grow the fuck up.

Trump pardoned every single insurrectionist. Every single one.

MeToo pushed a few big-name bad actors out of their positions, but it did very little to grapple with the systems and the cultures and the people that empowered those bad actors and allowed them to operate with impunity.

Neil Hannon/The Divine Comedy remain in my goodest good books reserved only for the goodest of good eggs.

BREAKING: New documents show that Trump was accused of raping a child with Epstein, but don't worry, Trump is going to make amends by bombing the women and girls of Iran ♥️

The president, who drones on about protecting women’s sports, publicly mocked the women’s gold-medal hockey team. A reminder this was never about protecting women’s sports and it was always about transphobia and misogyny.

If our first weekend in business has taught us anything it’s that we definitely need more books for dogs! #booksky #dogsky

Just cheesin’ it. - @oxventure.bsky.social

@oxventure.bsky.social Break a leg (presumably by kicking a chicken) tonight, gang! Will be watching and willing for some Crits from the stalls.

Dude regularly works for Disney, DreamWorks, Netflix and CN so speculate away. But this sucks no matter which studio is doing it, and gross to think some major movie this year is running with a plagiarized image from ChatGPT.

Selling off most of my Doctor Who figure collection on eBay coz I've stopped bothering with the COptions line...and hoped that folks wanting to fill gaps in their collection would leap at the chance. So far, the bids are mostly from re-sellers. Wanna change that? www.ebay.co.uk/usr/official...

Parting with a butt-load of Doctor Who merch (sorry Character Options, you've lost me). Got 3 *big* NuWho bundles up right now, with a Playsets bundle still to come, 2 Classic bundles and 2 HUGE dedicated Cyberman and Daleks bundles going up next week. www.ebay.co.uk/usr/official...

Billie Eilish 🙏🏼 (and Sabrina nodding and clapping 🙏🏼)

Finished #WonderMan. An excellent spin on the character, beautifully shot and purposely ‘pretentious’ in an effortlessly charming way. Yaya and Sir Ben are magic together.

The absolute wretchedness that is Nicki Minaj and Donald Trump holding hands

Hi new followers! If you're not sure who I am, I'm Tom Crowley, I do acting and writing, mainly in comedy. The best thing I do is a sketch comedy podcast called Crowley Time. It's free! Last year I was very excited to have Paul F Tompkins as a guest star for Episode 40. Download it today!

Renee Good's last words: "I'm not mad at you." Alex Pretti's last words: "Are you ok?" These are the people they're trying to paint as violent and dangerous

America, you’re the fuckin’ worst.
