Films, tv, retro gaming, sports, and forgetting what I'm doing. Easily distracted. Can be found digging through my childhood lego. Not smart or funny
I had to skip the Saints game to go visit my stupid in-laws. By all accounts it looks like it was a cracker of a game too 😭

Spending tens, or even hundreds of thousands of pounds on a digital marketing ad campaign, and then using AI generated slop for the actual ads themselves, is a very expensive way of telling people you like to cut corners.

On to the last two episodes of Station Eleven. I think this show's lost me tbh. It's 10 episodes and I only have 2 left, otherwise I would have bailed.
It's fine, but trying to flesh out a huge cast in a limited series is hard, and it feels like lots of building, but nothing is actually happening.

Rereading Saga has me missing comics-twitter around 2010-15ish. Nostalgia is a bastard

I saw Saga at the library and figured why not do a reread? I only read up to the hiatus originally. I got 1-6 from the library, and can get the rest digitally, and I put in a suggestion for the library to get 7-12. Anyway, lots of options

I finished reading this the other day. I can't get enough of Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips. Beautiful and gritty as always. So many of their works read like a series of True Detective

I finished reading Radio Free Albemuth last night. From what I can gather, this is a novelisation of the film that is a backdrop to another of his novels, VALIS. And like most PKD books, it reads like a paranoid schizophrenic's fever dream.
Aside from the rambling monologues, it was a good read

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.
