Wait, where I am? Last thing I know it was 2020 on the bird site and now I'm.... here? Robots, space, movies and the odd comic. And maybe some politicsπŸ˜‰ And spelling errors.

Kind of strange that in 1993, the president was someone who was born in 1946. And in 2026, the president is someone who was born in 1946.

I'm on an official discord for a mobile game and the developers get absolutely roasted every time a new battle pass releases and inevitably breaks the game somewhat...
And it's par for the course in those spaces.

Dunno what microslop were expecting to get with that.

This sort of thing is what keeps me alive in the chaotic times...
The thought of the Warner Bros purchase curse coming for the Ellisons....

Not sure the aftermath will be good but I'll take a destroyed billionaire as a sign things are getting better πŸ˜‰

Why is that middle one Marvel Comics Nimrod? Is that how we hunt mutants now? 😱

If you want to know how the British print news industry ends (which is, de facto, amazingly still what supports most newspaper websites) it's the distribution channels getting banjaxed. When you lose "TG Jones" etc even people who want a paper can't get one. That'll be the real start of the ending.

Oh that's interesting. I can't imagine he won't appear but with space for everyone else to be established first it should be stronger.

You've got a kind of acerbic whimsy rooted in the culture of those of us of a certain age *cough* It plays better than you think and I suspect you could've had a great Stuart Lee style career on your own terms.

Still think you should be writing, though. You've got something, man....

Stuff like this always makes me think "When he's gone, what's it actually going to be like?"
I'm imagining a Charlie Kirkesque morning period of 2wks then the avalanche is going to start. All the blame shifting to him from right wingers, ppl rowing back their support, replacing Nixon as most reviled

It is the single most annoying thing. The amount of blowback Obama and Biden got and it's just unvarnished arse kissing for Trump, some one who isn't the intellectual equal of anyone older than 3🀦

Y' know what?

30 minutes ain't fuckin' long enough of a lunch break on an 8 hour shift.

I really need to get out of this job, anybody know any simple clerical/call centre stuff with remote work that's hiring? (UK)

Oh by and large we have... However the broken people who can't see others as anything more than supporting cast in their own story are making the choices.... And these "people" don't mind how many bodies pile up as long as it's not them.

We have to stop electing psychopaths.

Screenshot of an article revealing the dumbasses at Paramount are, for reasons known only to Satan, going to commission 2 independent GI Joe scripts and then smoosh them together like your kid making a pie from a sandcastle and dogshit

... discounting Netflix's attempt to do GitS:SAC so I wasn't sure how it would hit.

Man, I missed that vibe. The whole 'taking the story seriously', the long languid pauses for mood, the absolute batshittery sometimes. And the willingness to not be neat and cheery at the end. Narrative weight
I ❀️it

Saw All You Need Is Kill at the IMAX last night and I'd mistakenly thought it was an older anime since the OG source material was, what, 2005? Had a weird scratchy art style to it that I initially didn't love but had won me over by the end.

It's been a really long time since I've seen any anime...

NGL I might start using it to write my emails but iterating using prompts like
"Now rewrite it as if I was a serial killer from the TV show Dexter..."
