You've traveled this far on the back of every mistake,
ridden in dark-eyed and morose but calm as a house
after the TV set has been pitched out the upstairs
window. Harmless as a broken ax.

I gotta say. It’s not looking great for Smyths continuing to sell Tranformers toys. The TF section is getting smaller and smaller every time I go in.

Today I learned Squenix has somehow stretched the FF7 remake into THREE games. THREE.

Talk about milking a franchise.

And I bet the NRA won't say shit. They had their chance to show that they had any backbone, any integrity, but instead they tried to blame the murder victim for carrying a gun.

From now on any time an NRA zealot opens his mouth, you get to say you've seen newborns with bigger balls than the NRA.
Trump: "With that being said, you can't have guns. You can't walk in with guns. You just can't. You can't walk in with guns. You can't do that. But it's just a very unfortunate incident."

The UK version of “Project 2025” by the Reform party includes a British ICE, a concentration camp for 24,000 people, mass surveillance and withdrawing from refugee, anti-torture and anti-trafficking conventions.

It’s on their website. That’s how comfortable fascists are in the UK today.

Including me! The Greens are the only sensible choice now.

Tories - You couldn't pay me enough to vote for them.
Labour - Just the Tories wearing a moustache.
Lib Dem - Proved they'd sell their soul for a sniff at power.
Reform - I'm not a racist, so no.

We deserve better than this.

The word "pussies" just doesn't convey how deep my utter contempt goes.

You fucking snivelling, boot-licking, fascist apologists.

Fuck the NRA. All the "oh, we need these guns to protect ourselves from tyranny" arguments are finally shown to be what we knew all along.

The NRA are gutless cowards.
Folks have been noting the creepiness of this NRA statement on the Minneapolis murder that DOESN'T affirm Alex Pretti's right to have a gun at a protest, instead blaming "radical progressive politicians lie Tim Walz" who have "incited violence against law enforcement officers" for his death....

Andy Burnham won't be allowed to stand in Gorton and Denton.

This means it is the Green Party who will take the seat.

Vote for them if you don't want Fuhrer Farage ruling over you.

I've been leaning towards Tubi being the streaming service, and now I think it's official: they have Season 1 and Season 2 of one of the best science and technology comedy shows ever made… "Look Around You".

Thanks, Tubi. Thubi.

Look Around You
This unique combination of parody and homage to early 70s/80s British educational programs examines different scientific topics in each episode.

First stop for #DistantWorlds3 is the charming "World of Death" (Spoihaae XE-X d2-9 A 1), a fast-orbiting planet that passes through the cones of a white dwarf, so there is only a small window of time where you can try to land.

Here's a slightly panicked picture of my SRV on the surface.

The world might be going to shit, AI and social media might be destroying the internet as we know it, but you know what? Every now and again you stumble across one of those rare sites that reminds you just what the internet used to be for, and should still be for.

Sites like this.

I tried watching Starfleet Academy. A strongish start that was thrown away after 30 minutes by the introduction of one of the most annoying characters in the franchise since Neelix, a scene that also showed a complete lack of understanding of the Klingon race.

The Disco era really is just drivel.

The fact that Gavin Newsom is even talking to the likes of Shapiro is a sign that he’s a non-starter. I’ve never forgotten how Shapiro said that Trayvon Martin deserved to die. Not fucking ever.
Ben Shapiro: "Israel did not commit a genocide in Gaza"
Gavin Newsom: "I agree with you."

Whaaaaat the actual fucking shit.....
These so-called "patriotic" 🇬🇧newspapers who brought you Brexit were never really patriotic at all.

They are driven by a disdain for Britain's European neighbours, and a fawning obsession with America.

They do not really want 🇬🇧 to be sovereign. They're content being a 🇺🇸vassal.

Took my daughter to The Pixel Bunker in Milton Keynes to try out a proper retro arcade and while the price is reasonable, and we had a lot of fun, I’m gonna ding them for having a fair few busted machines.

You're touting yourself as THE retro arcade, guys. Spend a bit more money on maintenance.

So I am a generally happy user of Tidal. I like that they give artists a far better share of profits, and I like the selection of music.

But why is Tidal SO GODDAMN BAD at separating artists with the same name? Reef, Lemon Jelly, Pantera and more, lumped in with randos that sound nothing like them.
