If you’re a musician there’s literally no better song you can write than the one you write at 1 am and listen back to at 2 am. There is no worse song than that same song at 9 am the same morning.

A plain grey billboard in Todmorden with a blue car parked in front of it.

Billboard advertising the concept of February.

If anything there should be more RPGs based on Jim Jarmusch films. Mystery Train RPG where every session has a mandatory encounter with Screamin’ Jay Hawkins. A character class that’s just Tom Waits.

Aspirational me staying away from home: While I'm away I'm going to cook a bunch of extravagant things my husband doesn't like. It will be a welcome chance to spread my culinary wings.

Actual me staying away from home: I might just eat these crisps I found in a bin.

I'm exactly the same. I think I saw it when it came out and after sitting through FXIII 8 and 9 it felt so much better. It might not be Great Art or whatever but it feels like the people involved were actively seeking to entertain. That shouldn't be remarkable but for late franchise slashers it is.

This is @glutelord.bsky.social and he's completely fucking correct. The fundamental tension at the heart of all incel culture is that these guys HATE women and refuse to appeal to them but desperately want to get laid anyway, and this contradiction can only really be resolved through violence

Gonna stack those gems. Gonna stack'em real good. That's the good stuff right there.

Sure the new Warlock for Diablo 2 is great and all but a previously non stackable item suddenly being stackable is possibly the best high in video games. I feel positively giddy.

Actual good news!

It reminds me of my theory that if every season of The Walking Dead had been six 45 minute episodes it would have been a much better series long term.

Joining the chorus of love for Mackenzie Crook's Small Prophets. An outstanding treat of a show, really showing what you can do with six thirty minutes episodes. Funny, scary, sad, uplifting. Just a total joy.

If you enjoyed I Will Strangle a Horse, but thought it really needed to shit on the eiderdown of heaven, then oh golly goodness this is for you.

No spoilers, but the blasphemous theology of Noel Edmonds will haunt my nightmares.

Look on the bright side, you've gifted her a truly excellent anecdote for breaking the ice on dates.

BBC killing the world service in an era when billionaires are buying up every single media outlet to push their ideology seems like an army deciding guns are no longer the future of warfare.

Absolute fucking state of it.

Genuinely furious to discover that almonds aren't even a fucking nut. They're a fucking drupe. First peanuts and then cashews and now almonds. Do nuts even exist? I've been lied to my whole life.

Finished work for the day and it says here my reward is going to the gym on a Saturday because past me was too hungover on Friday. That surely can't be right?

Letterboxd screenshot Star Trek Into Darkness (2013) Watched by Branson Reese 28 Apr 2022 Abrams isn't a man so much as he's an avatar of cultural entropy. If you make something popular enough eventually you will die or sell it off and and a person in thick rimmed glasses whose main artistic vision is that he loves to have meetings will take it and sandblast it until it's nothing. I hate to see this happen here but maybe it's good that this happened. Maybe every franchise should collapse into a version of itself that makes shareholders nod and shake each others' hands. We should learn to speak in a language that rich people who don't dream can't comprehend.

Love how MasterChef always finishes with "next time on MasterChef..." as though it's a cliff hanger even though we all know it's just going to be some cunts cooking whole Marcus Waring glowers at them again.

Hear me out. We should make competitive helter-skelter an Olympic sport.

A poster in black and beige on a white background hangs on a beige wall. In small font at the top: "Beware of Artists" - Actual poster issued by Senator Joseph McCarthy in 1950s, at height of the red scare. The poster itself in all capital letters reads: Beware of / Artists / They mix with all / Classes of Society / And are therefore / The most dangerous A smaller black plaque at the bottom reads : Collection of Banned or Challenged Books. Beside is a partial QR code.

Genuinely enthused that Zack Polanski's line is "the greens aren't splitting the left, we ARE the left." It hammers home that Labour want to claim leftwing votes whilst being obviously on the right. It's not splitting the vote if the current fuckers don't represent your interests at all.

Every business right now thinks its such an essential part of your life that you'd give them anything to keep using it and brother I am here to tell you I don't need a chat app that bad

That and an ongoing break with reality.

The good news is that Mozilla lets you create multiple profiles thus vastly increasing the number of tabs I can have at any one time.

Don't want to brag but I saw the actual sun today and I haven't needed to wear a hat indoors.
