Iron Lung crazy because used to be if you made $21m on a $3m budget, Kevin Feige would personally arrive on your doorstep and force you at gunpoint to make an X-Statix movie

The Stranger Things conspiracy theories about additional episodes is funny but it's sad how no one is just going "this all means Vecna won, that's the ending and what the ending REALLY means" as a way of baiting them into making a new episode

I think this is massively unfair to McSweeney, sure his current political strategy is failing and leading to massive discontent with the Labour Party and sure he may have pushed for the appointment of a man who was best friends with a paedo but have you considered he helped beat the BNP in Dagenham?

Hmm if only someone had promised democratic reform to the Lords
BREAKING: Keir Starmer has urged House of Lords to urgently modernise disciplinary procedures so that Peter Mandelson can be stripped of his peerage and removed from upper chamber.

I think the Mandelson stuff should genuinely be a resigning matter for Starmer

John Harris is maybe the biggest intellectual casualty of Brexit because he's been doing articles and videos like this for a decade now and it's clear he'll never pushback on anyone chatting shit because he thinks Brexit was the moment liberalism died in a landslide
In Gorton and Denton, I found a long-festering sense of fury that Labour has no idea how to tackle | John Harris

The people I met were disconnected and angry at the same time. Even if Labour somehow wins this byelection, how does it arrest the slide into hopelessness, asks Guardian columnist John Harris

Your Party won't stand in D&G because their CEC is the same day and, look, ChangeUK actually did manage to run full slates in the 2019 Euros despite internally collapsing so this is cringe

I know it wasn't everyone's cup of tea but I watched Kimmy Schmidt a few times and laughed out loud every single time at the episode where Mikey, trying to convince his co-workers on the construction site that he wasn't gay, followed the advice of "spray painting a hot chick on his truck"

The sharing of fake epstein drops without disclosing that they're fake is probably among the most useless and annoying things you can do right now, ngl

I think a New Vegas remaster should have skill checks on % roll, but have a dice sound and possibly even a graphic of dice appear to lean into the gambling aesthetic but also not make it feel bullshit like F3 did

Still can't believe the latest Epstein Files release just casually confirmed the anti-SJW movement was planned by pedophiles.
"The entire reactionary anti-woke backlash was masterminded by child traffickers" is the kinda shit I'd say as hyperbolic agitprop, but it was true the whole time.

it's not really revolutionary to say that since 2015 Labour's direction of travel has been towards young professionals in the downward trajectory middle class, and much of the Starmer collapse has been due to telling them to kys, but that has been the vote Labour's been chasing since they lost 1979

I think the coming locals and devolved elections are really funny because Starmer is so obviously, so massively an electoral liability but Labour MPs are so addicted to having a leader ready-to-go and who would be perfect in every way they just let him continue to lead them into annihilation
