Bad news pals, I finally started updating my blog again.

Heartbroken to hear about our lovely sausage @pretendasaur.com .

He has always hyped me up, brightened my days and supported ALL OF US. Time to return that!

He has suffered a serious brain injury, his family are raising money to support his recovery. 💞

New Duggs Of Future Past post...

Fantastic Four 286
Off to a better start with the front cover here (by John Byrne no less), promising us both some Phoenix content AND the actual X-Men. The real ones, current roster. There’s no way Marvel will mug u…

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

I'm hyped that Starmer is taking a massive risk by essentially going all in to try and combat Farage. The last time a UK Prime Minister did that it ended really well lads 🙃

If you blanked his name out of this you would assume it was a Tory PM statement. I'm becoming more and more convinced that he has no chance of seeing the next election (which they will lose regardless).

This. What really pisses me off is weak, belated challenges to clear lies. If Farage says “I am 10 feet tall,” I need to see that shit called out by the interviewer right there, not the next day in a BBC Verify article headlined “Do Reform leader’s height claims stand up?” as if there’s some nuance.

If PlayStation want me to play new games then why did they make DIshonored £3.99? 🤔
