Buying groceries in the States is insane right now, even compared to the UK cossy-lives. Normal big bag of Doritos costs $5.50 in the supermarket, which is about £4.10! (In the UK they’re £2.50, which is about $3.40)

I tried using a friend’s sex toy but it was a totally different vibe.

The BBC iPlayer app on my AppleTV box just gained subtitling. Huge font, not adjustable, but…there they are. Working. Like they’ve not been saying it’s impossible for six years. Any else got this?!

As a Stephen King fan, two Bachman adaptions coming out this year is cool all hell. That both look like they totally get the source materials’ dystopias is THRILLING. The Long Walk trailer has a real 70s-gone-bad vibe. The Running Man’s has an asshole battling the world that made him into one. 😁👍🏻

Cassian Andor, Jyn Erso, Han Solo and Finn all have the same arc: from self-interested scoundrel to committed rebel. And I enjoy the moment that change lands every single time.

Cassian always shoots first #Andor

Ellie and Joel in season 2 = Amy and Rory in season 7 = Leslie and Ron in season 7

I have a new car. And I have read the whole manual. (Cos autism.) But I cannot find out what these two little dudes are. They’re not lights, microphones, air vents or speakers. The block fills a space that, on some models, stores sunglasses. Can they really be just…nipples? For the aesthetic?!

When I first got on TikTok I was thrilled but surprised to discover hundreds of young people who loved the Phil Collins songs from Disney’s Tarzan. With a mania. None of the weary disgust of the reviews at the time. Using Take Me Home on the new #DoctorWho trailer? Love it. I bet they will too.

Delighted by this inadvertent Severance pun from the AppleTV menu.

If I were editing the Broccoli-Wilson 007 tribute video for the #Oscars I might not have included a clip from Never Say Never Again, since that was a rival film to their franchise…

Seems unwise to murder three Bond songs in front of so many witnesses. #Oscars

@jamesmoran.com We have, at last, a name: Squeepoo! https://vm.tiktok.com/ZNd1EVP5o/

Also, we just got to see Scarlett Johansson playing a version of Audrey from Little Shop and it was *perfect*. #SNL50

I’m doing my best to make sense of #snl50 and it’s going pretty well - all the archive content thrown out in recent weeks set up a lot of the references and callbacks.

@chrishewitt.bsky.social @helenlohara.bsky.social Hello, and thank you for being reliably splendid podcast voices. 👋🏻

Ace from #DoctorWho is named for her catchphrase. Itself just a common exclamation of positivity in the 1980s. Which is actually great. I would totally accept a modern companion named Slay.
