Hey, Britain? I mean, we say Britain, but it is always fucking England, isn't it? We talked about this, no Nazis. No. Bad.

That’s a new one for me.

Because it is Shirley Manson moments before singing Only Happy When it Rains, you see.

Her name was Rebecca, her memory was and will remain a blessing, and she was one of the few people who made me feel comfortable let alone welcome at work. Without her I am already effecting my exit and will do so with the absolute minimum notice and cooperation I can get away with.

WAFCON 2026 opened in Morocco with South Africa fielding the first married couple (Robyn and Gabriela Moodaly-Salgado) to play together, and now we get Morocco-Algeria which is a top rivalry for me in any context. ⚽️💃🏻🐍🍄

Really circling the wagons to decry Emily Wilson for the high crime of bullying Christopher Nolan, aren’t we.

My long term search for an insulated tiffin I like was interrupted by the air becoming fire and the forests also becoming fire. So I guess I no longer need one.

The Social Reckoning releases on 9 October, so there is just enough time if The Asylum want to hire me to churn out a mockbuster cash-in. My pitch is “Discourse Overdrive” and it is just a bunch of people screaming at each other in a hotel room. 2 days to swipe mad takes from X, 3-4 day shoot max.

I am really having a banner day of clumsy interactions that trigger my own sense of being disliked and generally incapable of meaningful connection with other people.

I swear this is without judgement and I almost believe it myself: there is always a deflating sense when I am listening to someone enthuse about something and I realise it is a videogame and not something I can watch, read, listen to, or engage with in any meaningful way.

How is this true. This is the greatest, dumbest character in the history of fiction.

What if someone was sufficiently brave and mad to wire a record player to monitor bird songs in the area and what if that someone was me?

I can't relate to most discourse around this as I never liked meat, am violently lactose intolerant, and grew up eating vegan dishes that are thousands of years old. In many ways this is precisely as difficult as you make it.

It's a point I've been trying to make for a long time: there is no good way to meet even 10% of current demand for animal products. They trash the living world, whichever way you do it. If you want to reduce your impact, switch to a plant-based diet. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Marvel are relaunching the X-Men this December, featuring what appears to be a version of Betsy Braddock that reverts some of these changes so never mind I guess. lol

I heard Marvel took two characters I liked when I read comics as a wayward youth and made them a lesbian couple, and I simply had to take a look. So, here is Betsy Braddock (Psylocke/Captain Britain) and Rachel Summers (Marvel Girl/Phoenix) being cute.

Currently tiptoeing my way through a cloud of scattering grasshoppers as I wander down an apparently disused path An unexpected delight

Gosh these are all just such exceedingly good books. To the unrelenting discourse I commit only this and nothing more.

If I had to describe the heart and soul of Bluesky it would the following: a guy who didn’t actually read Emily Wilson’s review of Nolan’s Odyssey movie defending it against a guy who didn’t actually watch Nolan’s Odyssey movie

Between Tamil, Telugu and Hindi cinemas, does one emerge as broadly the most progressive? Can anyone advise me at all? I'm interested in Indian movies but I'm a rank outsider without a clue.

Everyone wants to talk about Ghost Rider and Fast Forever announced for 2028, but all I want to hear about is Mamma Mia 3: Into the Abbaverse.

HANIM (1989) is a tale of the widow Olcay and her beloved cat Hanim. One of the most achingly beautiful films I have ever seen, starring the grand Yıldız Kenter as a proud woman determined to face ageing and the decline of her country with a quiet dignity.

[ nodding along, genuinely enjoying the conversation ] in my head: LOOK DOWN, LOOK DOWN. YOU’RE STANDING IN YOUR GRAVE [ very interested in the book being discussed ] imh: LOOK DOWN, LOOK DOWN. SWEET JESUS DOESN’T CARE [ laughing at joke ] imh: LOOK DOWN LOOK DOWN THEY’VE ALL FORGOTTEN YOU
