"Artists peak at 30", "30 under 30", "by 30 you should" ridiculous. Arts industries capital craves young people to exploit and burn out. It doesn't want older artists thriving and guiding the young. It also doesn't want artists to exist. Stop letting cannibals tell you you only matter on a plate.

Matt Goodwin more like Matt Badloss

Even Contemptible Men Don’t Deserve Mob Justice Ex-Prince Andrew, once a friend of Jeffrey Epstein, falls victim to a trans-Atlantic moral panic.

*guy gets arrested for a few hours and is returned to his palace*

Mob justice is going too far!!

Hell yeah!

"Once Upon A Time... Life" was this educational French cartoon all about the workings of the human body, and was part of a bigger franchise that mostly dealt with varipus eras of history. Incredibly charming.

A Drow holding an axe and smiling at it in an insane way.

I'm told that the blade itself incites to deeds of violence

I need all of you to write the most angry letter you've ever written in your lives.

Particularly applicable to Sword & Sorcery

I can't argue with that but I feel very deeply that I should

Seriously how good would it have been if Howard had just stuck to spooky swashbuckling adventures for Kane, like the one set in the Black Forest in Germany. But noooo

Oh god Solomon Kane was a *slog*.

Goat Fell in winter, from Saturday. Last part of the climb was over snow 1-2 feet deep. Tanked it with no equipment and scrambling over the snow and rocks bare-handed (don't try this at home).

Also I got stuck on the island overnight and lucked into accommodation at the last minute 🙃

you can really blow some minds with “actually there was an entire library and research institute for queer / trans history, science and medicine founded by a Jewish sexologist but the Nazis destroyed it in the hopes of exactly this outcome, ie future generations not believing trans people are real”

Catching a 6.00 am train and 7.00 am ferry tomorrow because I decided freezing my balls off on a mountain is better than sitting at home feeling glum about what day it is.

Aw hell yeah

We are and we do! It's a long story

Saying that I just played LOTRO for an hour and change hotspotting off my phone's data and it burned like 20 MB, that's sheer witchcraft

Full week of no WiFi in the flat let's go 🔥🔥🔥

Researching crossfit shoes and being hit by the wave of douchebag product names.

'SAVAGE SHOES!'
'Do they fit?'
'BEAST THE ROUTINE!'
'Do they fit?'
'BECOME THE APEX!'
'DO THEY FIT, MOTHERFUCKER?!'

Trans athletes may not have fitness advantage in women’s sport, landmark study finds Findings suggest physical performance in trans women converges toward that of cis women over time

A new systematic review has found that trans women on HRT have the same level of fitness as cis women and don't retain any advantage in sports.

Always retweeting these two pages of Wolves of St. August because I believe that Mignola, along with Kiyoshi Kurosawa, are the two artists who have most profoundly understood ghosts.

No new pictures. Where are you at mentally?

You ain't lied so far

Cox would later reprise his role as Boromir in the 1981 BBC radio drama, along with Peter Woodthorpe as Gollum.

Thinking about John Hurt and Michael Graham Cox voicing Aragorn and Boromir in Ralph Bakshi's LOTR (1978) AND Hazel and Bigwig in Watership Down (also 1978). Mirrored and echoing dynamics, with very different paths taken.
