Jesus, it’s formatted like a graph and it says Verified at the top. What more are you looking for?

Oh yeah. I spent a lot of time looking at the boxes in the video library. Or the horror novels in bookshop. Watched and read none, and I’m pretty sure I didn’t sleep for a few years

Sounds about right. When I wasn’t having nightmares about nuclear apocalypse, I was having nightmares about that short film.

Oh yeah. War Games, definitely. In my memory I was about 10, but I’d need to check.

Also preface by a really disturbing short film that I think @ianmoore3000.bsky.social also saw - a sort of possession/haunting/murder vibe.

Great days

I came home from seeing Wargames in the cinema, to sit down with my parents for the end of The Day After. (Not recently, when I was a child.)

You’ve got to keep reading the articles Keith. Otherwise imagine how foolish you’ll feel when they publish the article that really has The One Trick

You need to sign up to the premium cyber scam tier to get that personal touch. Totally worth it though

This is like a nature documentary about the battle for supremacy between two magnificent lions, except instead of magnificent lions, it's half-bald rats and one of the rats is off its tits on ketamine.

FFS - so many good gigs there over the last decade.

I’ve little interest in gigs with than a few hundred people in the room, and there’s already almost nowhere left to put them on.

Ridiculous of course.

But, in keeping with tradition, they have retreated to the roof of the shed to eat the dinner they cooked

It’s not a glamorous hunting strategy. Not showy. But it’s reliable. So… that’s something?

β€˜A lot of children die’: Inside Chad camps for Sudanese refugees US cuts to foreign aid could be β€˜a death sentence for millions of people experiencing extreme hunger and starvation’, says World Food Programme

I spent the last week in camps for Sudanese refugees in east Chad. This is the first piece, about international aid cuts & hunger. The kid at the end reminded me of my nephew. More coming next week. The heartbreaking photos are from Chris Maddaloni www.irishtimes.com/world/africa...
