This weekend's terrible movie was Land of the Minotaur, in which priest Donald Pleasance and his private eye sidekick chase around Greece trying to stop manbull-loving cultist Peter Cushing Just look how swaggy Pete is in this one

Had a small chuckle at the new comic advertised in the back of the Skybound books being touted as for fans of Battle Chasers "If you loved that series that managed nine issues over four years a quarter-century ago..." There HAS to be a better touchstone than that these days, right? ...right?

Today was a bad day to have to travel into Oxford for work (at least I got to make a side-trip to Thirsty Meeples) so I think it's First Pimms of the Year Day, lads

So many of the parasocial relationships formed online are rooted in lonely people mistaking being friendly (which is just most folks' default mode with strangers unless given a reason to be otherwise) for being friends (which requires actually KNOWING someone, not just enjoying their work)

Very rude and frankly hurtful that going home to cook a healthy meal means walking past the delicious scents of seventeen different takeout places 😔😔😔

My attitude toward #TTRPG discourse and the avoidance thereof remains pretty consistent; I'll talk about what we enjoy and keep an ear out for other stuff that sounds cool but it is genuinely none of my business, nor do I care about, what games random strangers play or how they play them ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm giving a tour of a barrow tomorrow and there's been a record number of people asking for the blanket option, lol (For folks that are unable to crawl through the entrance tunnel they can lie supine on a blanket and I'll drag them inside like some sort of academic movie monster)

Y'all KNOW I'm always release order over chronological but I had a hankering to attempt a complete Marvel watchthrough so I've been doin' the official timeline just for a bit of a change; this'll be an occasional thread about the effect of that, especially on stuff I hadn't seen/had only seen once

"If you think about it," the man remarks to his dining companions, "I'm the one who actually brought the dish into being because I told them what to cook for me." The other AI investors nod sagely, murmuring in agreement; from the direction of the kitchen the faint sound of spitting continues

Every few months there's a "BlueSky is dying" panic on here and every single time it's just a chunk of the last Twitter influx whining that it's harder to troll or clout-chase here because people will just block you for being annoying and go about their day, lol

Oh no; somehow I've been mixed up with the YouTuber I do continuity notes for and now I'm getting her sponsorship offers If you suddenly see my posts sponsored by INR/BTY (with anti-oxidant rich blueberry seed oil and ginkgo extracts) you'll know that the temptation to get that dollar was too great

Yeah I wish we could have the disguised villains shocking twist version of the Thunderbolts on screen as well, but even if they'd kept enough bad guys alive I'm not sure how the promotional campaign would have worked STARRING DANIEL BRÜHL AS TOTALLY A DIFFERENT GUY, WE SWEAR
