So much for Starmer not authorising attacks on his ministers...

Sobek wept...

...though that's a multiple choice question looking at the current cabinet.

It's an artistic representation of a circulatory system walking through a kitchen, as drawn by Dave Gibbons and written about by Alan Moore. It happens a lot 'round here.

Happy There Is A Circulatory System Walking Through The Kitchen Day to all who celebrate.

I'm guessing that Amazon drivers never got sweets when trick or treating, what with their inability to ring a doorbell...

The BBC's senior leadership resigning en masse over one dodgy edit in one programme, simply because the right wing press demands it, tells you everything you need to know about where the power really lies in that relationship

Ryan Moulton @moultano Oil is the most Lovecraftian thing that actually exists. You're telling me that there's a black ichor under the earth, made from the ancient dead, whose burning can realize all the dreams of man but only at the price of slowly returning the earth to its primordial state?

I take it venting spleen about the abysmal museum etiquette of people at the V&A's Cartier exhibition is the most first world of First World Problems?

Really appreciated my shuffle deciding to cue up the cinephile version of Sonic's drowning music this morning...

I don't work in advertising, but surely the number one rule for any game ad campaign is to not have people instinctively humming the theme of another game.

In a completely unrelated note, does anyone else find themselves humming the Super Mario theme whenever they see the Battlefield RedSec ad...?

And I thought the Baerskin ads Youtube insists on shoving into my feed were overcompensating...

How it felt this morning when I switched on my TV to a channel in the middle of an ad break...

And it's time for the monthly film roundup.

VHS Viral was still more tolerable than yet another nonformance against Chelsea...

Didn't believe that story about Mother Seddons, did you?

Ironically this would likely be better than the bowl of diabetes-inducing granola I did have.

I'd say that was a suitable breakfast for today...

Today's excuse for getting sod all work done: far too busy playing Pac-Man on the Google front page.

Crazy3d dot AI Reddit ad featuring Vincent Van Gogh's 1889 Self-Portrait with Bandaged Ear being turned into a Funko Pop-esque figurine.

I got this ad on Reddit for AI slop that starts funny purely because the bandage doesn't cover his ear and a human needed to look through their promo images and pick one, but I digress.
