Pioneering Female Archaeologist In Google Doodle Bears Silent Witness To Man’s Search For ‘Zootopia’ Porn theonion.com/pioneer...

For those of you who have started following me, but don't know me.... I'm a UK school librarian who specialises in reviewing horror, often with an emphasis on YA and Middle Grade for @gnofhorror.com which hosts my 'Young Blood' page. Here's my latest reviews gnofhorror.com/jan-feb-esse...

The foresight shown by the ancients in building Ethernet ports into the dome!

"Facism is the act of self-deception in service of making your own life more painful, solely for the payoff of making life more painful for people you dislike."

Dude, Emilia Pérez is actual dogshit.

a reason i think Elon Musk is so opposed to WFH is that he spends a huge chunk of his day playing video games instead of working and - because he lacks any empathy as a sociopath - assumes everyone else is like him

These huge gigs are actually so fucking lame man. I was waiting for the Nine Inch Nails tickets at the O2 arena to go live and standing was sold out immediately. And seating tickets start from £185. Actually fucking insanity. Not even fucking JESUS CHRIST himself could charge me that much.

I have no problem with Lin-Manuel Miranda because I’ve seen what happens to a Moana movie he’s not involved in

Another huge banger from Gary Stevenson. A must watch. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xtwb...

Just caught up with the Joe Rogan interview with Mark Zuckerberg. Truly one of the most breathtakingly hypocritical things I’ve ever heard. Astounding political and intellectual cynicism and self-interest, wrapped up in Silicon Valley facile speak.

Jesus fucking christ

The r/DiscoElysium subreddit has been seriously cooking lately with gems such as this: www.reddit.com/r/DiscoElysi...

I'm completely serious when I say I'll kill myself before I thank an ex-gf for defending my gaming honor this way

A Complete Unknown was alright, fine, a bit better than just OK. I was hoping it'd make me want to listen to more Bob Dylan but I guess if I haven't grown to like his music already no film wouldn't.

David Lynch gave us the language we needed to better articulate the indescribable strangeness of our shared reality. “Lynchian” is so overused because it’s a viscerally understandable word without any known synonyms. I can’t imagine a more beautiful artistic legacy than that.

Terrible people can say good things

We’re aware of the bot followers. We know it’s really irritating for yall. The blade runners are working hard and we’re looking at bigger steps.

Happy "Darkest Day in American History" everyone!

I really need Trent Reznor to score a musical and get the EGOT he deserves. He’s only a Tony away.

Of the 40ish films released in 2024 in the UK that I watched, my top 10: 10. The Holdovers 9. Late Night with the Devil 8. Robot Dreams 7. Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga 6. Hundreds of Beavers 5. Challengers 4. Civil War 3. The Substance 2. The Taste of Things 1. Bionico's Bachata (LFF24) #filmsky

I always found Sam Hyde to be his own worst enemy. Amongst all the edginess, deep sarcasm and irony there is sometimes good insight and good humour. He struggles to say what he really means because he's probably super afraid of ever being seen as earnest. youtu.be/YvcUQI6gAaI?...

One of my favourite covers ever is finally on Spotify. Mick Gordon's version of Leonard Cohen's The Partisan. Almost 10 years after it was first released with Wolfenstein: The Old Blood. open.spotify.com/track/53FLdg...

lead singer: ARE YOU READY TO ROCK???? me in the pit trying to clean the front of my glasses w my tshirt: JUST A SEC, BUD

Just watched Blade. What does "some motherfuckers are always trying to ice skate up-hill" even mean???

Quote a title screen that is iconic to you

Merry Christmas and hail to the King baby.

You can immediately tell Lin-Manuel Miranda wasn't involved in Moana 2 because all the songs suck.

Truth nuke:

LOTR: The War of Rohirrim is the worst film I've seen in the cinema this year. Cheaply made, unnecessary and worst of all, very boring. The name drops at the end were like being forced to eat dogshit.
