Netflix love to constantly tell me that the Netflix account that I pay for is not part of my Netflix Household, and I have to keep using temporary passcodes.

I love seeing Oxford (@ox.ac.uk) in the snow, even a small amount, it’s magical! I’m so glad I am a fellow of Exeter College (@exeter.ox.ac.uk).

Walter the Exeter College (@exeter.ox.ac.uk) cat was being very vocal about his opinions of the snow

How do you buy a movie and just get the mp4? Like instead of buying a DVD or something physical, I’d like to just buy it in mp4 format to watch on my laptop. I’m tired of streaming services removing things I want to watch. I don’t even own a device that can play DVDs.

I really want a ROG Ally X but I don’t want Microslop. I really want a handheld gaming device other than my switch.

One of my biggest regrets in life is not attending Mariah Carey’s Music Box Tour because I wasn’t born yet

I just finished the main story in Pokemon Legends ZA, one of the best pokemon games I’ve ever played. The graphics were really good even on my very old switch 1. Took me ~40hrs to complete and get my Gengar from wild zone 20. The next pokemon game needs voice acting.

Sky news is so shady they’ve got Trump in clear view falling asleep during this press conference
January 3, 2026 at 5:11 PM
One of my favourite Trumpism is when he says something along the lines of “the likes of which have never been seen before”, he says it in nearly all speeches he gives.
