Terrible headline for a Grant Morrison interview

Sign of fundamental culture death that this article — which is just a Q&A with the great trans/NB author Grant Morrison! — is headlined "Superman is a socialist" (a statement Morrison *barely* makes in half of a sentence) and the URL includes the terms "jesse-watters-ben-shapiro" 🤮

I ain't reading all that

Free Palestine

This colour is sick

it is a moral imperative that you just buy music you like.

So, we’re done with summer now right? My skin is constantly glazed with sweat and I’m itchy

PSA for everyone going to protests

Got some Magic The Gathering - Final Fantasy boosters on my way home from work today and there was some cool cards in them.

(I have never bought or played MTG, so I have no point of reference or experience, I just think Final Fantasy is neat)

Can't believe we're getting an Expanse game that's apparently like Mass Effect. It's so me-coded they must've taken my specific desires into account.

Still riding this high!

I should take a Switch 2 pro controller to Edinbrawl IV

Oh, we gamin’

Okay, that checks out.

Spent a roasting hot day off at Blair Drummond Safari Park and saw TWO elephants.

I recently got back into comics too! So far picked up the new ASM, some X-men, and I tried the new X-Factor but X-Factor without Peter David is a bit rubbish haha

So close

New Avengers is to Thunderbolts what X is to Twitter

Walked through the park and went to the Barras Market. Found a Pennywise album and Descendants pin!

Not at Bafta Games, but my boss is…

A bench in the park to read on and ride out a chronic pain flare up.

It’s infiltration mechanism. It’s making you love it more!

My only hot take on Switch 2 pricing is that we should all be paid more

Aye it was pretty fun. I’d read the book though so that might’ve taken away from it. Like the other two too. Black Bag is a classy spy story and One of Them Days was a fun buddy comedy

It’s been a minute since I was at the movies, so I’m spending the WHOLE day in the cinema

1. Mickey 17 (Bong Joon-ho)
2. Black Bag (Steven Soderbergh)
3. One of Them Days (Lawrence Lamont)

Aye

More tournaments this year! Been to one in Feb, now I've got a couple in May and June!

Building up confidence at local events.

When I was wee I used to make an arena out of video tape cases and cardboard boxes when playing with wrestling figures.
