On the one hand I don't particularly like the OP and I don't agree with the point they're making, but on the other hand almost all of the replies and quotes are from Americans who don't seem to understand that other countries exist

I think it’s good we are relitigating public health measures while RFK Jr is on TV ranting like the lunatic he is

(I get that Bluesky is very obviously the Wow We Loved Lockdowns website but I think it's absolutely fine, five years after the fact, to wonder if we got the balance right between "protecting older people" and "making sure younger people weren't getting entirely shafted", arguments are allowed)

Me and @slowjamsforever.bsky.social just watched 'A Shot at Glory', the Scottish football film with Robert Duvall, Michael Keaton, and... Ally McCoist. Usually don't care about this shit, but I feel like my review of the film should be the top one on Letterboxd.

A ★★½ review of A Shot at Glory (2000)

It's really funny that this film stars two hugely prolific, deservedly acclaimed actors with an array of awards between them, yet the film is largely carried by of all people, Ally McCoist. Obviously ...

It was literally thinking yesterday about how well the original DOOM still holds up. Still looks cool, sounds cool, and fun as hell to play. (and only took up about 6MB!) Remember how big Lemmings was, and now there's not been a new one in too long, besides a few mobile game attempts.

Apart from DOOM, any computer game before 1995 is basically long-forgotten arcane knowledge. I remember when they made a book with 1001 games you must play and it didn't have a single King's Quest but listed all the GTAs & Mario Karts.

Thinking about this some more, and it's funny that The Hobbit got mocked for stretching a single 300 page book out to three full length movies, yet here they're getting a full movie out of the 'Ghost of Christmas Past' section.

OFFICIAL POSTER - Johnny Depp is Scrooge in director Ti West's A Christmas Carol movie EBENEZER, in theaters November 13, 2026 from Paramount. Andrea Riseborough, Ian McKellen, Sam Claflin, Rupert Grint, Daisy Ridley and Tramell Tillman also star.

I know I've lamented the loss of focus on sites hosted by the likes of Geocities and Angelfire a lot, but here I go again. Most of those sites had these. And nobody gave a shit or complained about them, because they weren't intrusive as all hell.

I feel like people have forgotten that ad blockers weren't popular because people just wanted to get something for free, it's because we can't trust ads not to fuck up our computers. If we still just had quiet simple banner ads or sideboard ads, ad blockers wouldn't have gotten as much traction.

The main thing I think about is if you look the wikis for Fallout 3, New Vegas, Oblivion, Skyrim, there'll be bits warning you about potential gamebreaking bugs in specific quests. The amount that were never fixed is legitimately a disgrace. There's NO WAY it won't be worse in future instalments.

microsoft is in full damage control mode following last week's layoffs. its main strategy so far? namedrop sequels to popular series at every turn. but despite what execs like asha sharma might want you to think, those series were made by people, and now they'll never be the same

All the worry of 'What's next for Scotland?' after the World Cup, and let me tell you nothing has me more worried about that more than the fact that Craig Gordon has finally decided to retire. He's earned it, but really though, oh shit.
