Warhammer, Transformers, Tabletop RPGs, assorted nerd stuff. I wanted to be a Social Justice Mystic Theurge, but turned out a Social Justice Commoner.

I've not actually said this on my account here, on account of it being underused, but:
Queerphobes, transphobes, genocide apologists, racists and Tories of every stripe (explicitly including Reform and Republicans) can go straight to hell.
Do not pass go, do not collect £200.

Computer, please summarize everything PG Wodehouse ever wrote in ten seconds

the hardest part of writing politically charged fiction is that a good villain needs to be complex, cool and about as right as the protagonist; while evil people in real life are lame, cruel, childish morons motivated by greed or not wanting to look at minorities

The year is 2367. Productivists just took a majority in the federation council. Wolf 359 hasn't happened yet. Dixon Hill XVIII is #1 at the box office. Replicator rations are at 9/week. The federation has been at peace for a generation. You smile, knowing this moment will never return

Mr "FaZe Rug" here (And yes, I am mocking his handle while using this user name) has somehow made the best advert I have ever seen against the concept of computer gaming; the concept of voice-activated AI assistants; and somehow also the concept of online shopping.
It is devastatingly hollow.

I doubt anybody in the world would be surprised, but it really is a hell of an indictment of Mark Zuckerberg's character that you can have the moral high ground over him while being Nick Clegg
“Meta stalled internal efforts to prevent child predators from contacting minors for years due to growth concerns, and pressured safety staff to circulate arguments justifying its decision not to act.”
