There are few things people care less about than youtubers complaining about poor views but, when your income depends on it, it's hard not to scream into the void, "WTF have I done to hurt you, algorithm?!"

I love Cage in all his forms (Mandy was stellar!) so I'll be checking this out for sure!

What horror movies have the best practical monster effects and set designs?

I'm looking for films I've never seen before, in the vein of The Thing, Alien, and The Fly

I didn’t know Microslop was a thing until I saw headlines about Microsoft trying to ban Microslop on its Discord. Now I shall say Microslop a lot. That’s how it works.

It’s good when Microsoft, a company that likes genocide and environmental destruction, doesn’t like things.

I'm about two hours deep, having a blast gameplay-wise, but it so far seems light on narrative. People keep calling it a Greatest Hits album and I fully get that vibe

I love Glasgow so much. I just walked past two old men who own an antiques shop. They were polishing a lovely wood cabinet on the street in the rain. I asked one of them how much they're selling it for. He told me he had just sold it to an old woman but he didn't really like her so I can have it lol

Do audiobooks REALLY count as reading?

Hm, @willowtalksbooks.bsky.social has some interesting arguments here. What do you think?

We literally know now that anti-trans legislation was pushed by a pedophile ring to allow a pedophile ring to serve a pedophile ring’s interests, and legislators have decided the best course of action is to keep doing what the pedophile ring wants.

The cover of JITTERBUG features a stylised rocket silhouette at the centre of an orrery, with a space suited figure dangling in its wake

The wait’s nearly over! Jitterbug hits bookstores on March 3, and everybody’s going to be talking about that ending. Don’t let anyone spoil it for you, order your copy now!

Just saw a crow and a seagull fly past each other like pedestrians on a morning commute, and it got me wondering if they know and ever acknowledge each other.

"Mornin', Dave."
"A'right, Gareth. Always a pleasure."

The cover of the hardback version of "There is No Anti Memetics Division" by QNTM. It features the title in large, all-caps. There is a picture of a deer in an abstract background of pale blues and pinks.

Bought this, based partly on an ecstatic review by @willowtalksbooks.bsky.social . Following her channel is really stating to cost me money lol

I read "carte blanche" as Cate Blanchett and got way too excited. Still, I love Cregger's work so I'm going to try and remain hopeful!

@willowtalksbooks.bsky.social as someone who's been a bookworm since childhood and a huge fan of your work on YouTube I was DYING to read your book Managing and Other Lies and yesterday I finally got myself a digital copy I've been reading on my commute to work and my god it's wonderful +

Star Trek Picard scene. An older Worf is shown, white eyebrows and goatee. There's a 'Mr. Worf Goes to a Rave' feel, with what looks like confetti dropping over him, blacklighting, and abstract art on the walls behind him, presumably drawn in Tide.  Closed caption reads, "Beheadings are on Wednesdays."

Do you feel a pang of pride in your chest when you see "mcr" because you're an emo kid or because you're from Manchester?

β€œI hate this attitude that characters, protagonists, stories…have to be nice. That if a protagonist is a bad person, which makes you feel uncomfortable then that’s somehow a moral (or artistic) failing of the author”

Another great vid from @willowtalksbooks.bsky.social 😼
