If you see me posting here, remind me I have too many books, BluRays, DVDs, comics & games to get through to be wasting time on socials. Those backlogs aren’t going to clear themselves.

Saw ‘Birdwatching’ tonight in Salford. Absolutely stunning. An amazingly tight well written piece, brilliantly staged and acted. Expertly framed themes, rounded characters and genuinely deeply creepy (but with a possibly uplifting ending). Congratulations to all.

They’re gutting the remaining outlets that are telling the truth. @wired.com will be next.
thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting.

now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

Hey so if this is true I'm cancelling my Fortnite subscription and uninstalling the game.

I encourage anyone else who cares about trans people to do the same

If I was Starmer, I'd be putting tariffs on Tesla, reviewing any solar battery bank contracts we have with Tesla, and putting travel restrictions on this utter melt. Shouldn't be welcome here.

Oh and btw, delete your Twitter account.
X is a cesspit led by an unhinged billionaire who is desperately trying to stir up civil war in Britain.

Nobody with any sense or decency should be there.

No organisations, government departments, or politicians should be there.

Everyone who is, is enabling this monster.

I do wonder even if he were to turn up at the @royalsociety.org and take a massive shit in the Marble Hall, whether they’d actually remove his fellowship or just have another closed meeting followed by some dissembling statement about how they weren’t ‘political’ and it wasn’t appropriate to do so.

you don't understand. as someone who isn't inherently good at art, stealing paintings from the museum is the *only* way i'm able to express myself creatively. i wouldn't be able to paint beautiful portraits. but by breaking into a museum and stealing the paintings, now i am

People are always rightly pointing out that Warhammer contributes more to the British economy than the fishing industry, but the problem is that there just aren't very many folk songs about Warhammer

Grimmfest 2025 - Day 4 - Film 6 - Dead By Dawn

Polish Giallo homage that throws in references to so many films it becomes a game to spot them, but also has it’s own great imagery and does it with such gusto that it’s hard not to get carried along for the ride.

And … that’s all for this year folks!

Grimmfest 2025 - Day 4 - Film 5 - The Other

This is a concept that has been done way better by other films that have been either deadly serious or seriously bonkers. This film doesn’t really know which way to jump so sadly doesn’t succeed in either direction.
