I’ve been so busy lately I’ve only been hit and run posting, so I missed the news about Nick’s passing.
Honestly, it’s hit quite hard.
I knew Nick primarily through his work on Retro Gamer, for which there aren’t enough plaudits to do it justice.

For a country that stands opposed to self-ID, they still allow shitheads to cosplay as christians.

Saw a TV advert for the new Trainline app that had a disclaimer stating that as the results are AI generated they might not be correct.
What’s the point of a train timetable app if you can’t trust it to show you correct information?
It’s madness.

So he'd back a US invasion of Greenland then?
Keir Starmer: "I constantly remind myself that 24/7 our defence, our security & our intelligent relationship with the US matters probably more than any other relationship we've got in the world and it would not be in our national interest to weaken that in any way"

The december leg of the 1994 Nine Inch Nails tour also featured Pop Will Eat Itself.
The lead singers of both bands became award winning film composers.
It was a good year for music.

Can't we skip straight to the dystopian wasteland? I know people always say it's not the destination it's the journey, but I'd rather be living in the ruins of civilisation than having to sit and watch the collapse.

One must hope of course that when Trump eventually does die that is a reasonably quick affair and without prior warning.
We must all hope that he is not afforded the opportunity to pull an Emporer Cartagia and attempt to take the entire world with him.

Wait, so if the leader of a country is a shitty despotic self serving corrupt asshole you're allowed to just go in and kidnap them?

It's weak cosplay, it should at least come with a mop and bucket.
‘Gender critical’ transphobes are now just openly advertising the fact they want to be the genital inspector Karen! 😆
They’re so immersed in their own transphobic hate bubble, they don’t even realise how bad this makes them look!

My resolution for this new year is to finally walk away from social media for good and so I will not be posting at all in 2026.
Oh pissflaps.

After the millenium, staying up late to watch a single number at the end of the date roll over just isn't that exciting.
We lived through the ultimate thrill ride of watching four figures roll over ALL AT ONCE.
So you can keep your single digit bullshit.

Because Gen Z are more politically literate than their forebears and realise what’s actually at stake in a “difference of opinion”
Everyone has a list of so-called "red flags" when they're dating. And for some, especially younger Americans, different political views is a relationship deal breaker.
Majority of Gen Z swipe left on dating people with opposite political views
