look i’m sorry, saying ‘yes we’re running a neo nazi but he’s had sensitivity training’ is objectively funny
so much focus on Liddle’s tiresome obnoxious shock jock columns, grotesque beliefs & unforgiveable actions & not enough on how he looked like a glum lock-keeper from a spooky live action reboot of Rosie & Jim
It properly rattles me that what has finally brought people round to ‘trained cultural criticism is important’ is mr ‘what if Joseph Gordon Levitt were to bound around like a kangaroo & the most credulous movie fans in the world called it philosophically complex’ whining about amateur critics
Part 1 of the Odyssey 2 parter - @miloedwards.bsky.social, @patrickwyman.bsky.social & @phoeberoi.bsky.social chat: da poem
it’s actually pretty cool that one film based on such an old text can produce such an incredibly wide range of responses! apart from your responses, of course, which are incorrect
not the point really but have i misunderstood something fundamental about how one wears a rolex
I love stuff like this because it totally excuses you from even trying to be a better parent, prioritising a wholly imaginary scenario where you are being arrested for saving your children from a threat that does not exist
it’s going to be about scrooge’s parents being booted off a roof by a giant rooftop christmas tree

It’s not your fault that your men died! i can see that you feel guilt for your stratagem of the horse. If you can let me know which gods are currently out to get you, i can recommend the exact stratagems to unlock next
here is my most presently unpopular opinion: people know perfectly well what is meant by ‘a historically accurate odyssey’ and they are pretending they don’t because they hate the people using the expression
Day 6 in the fight booth with Christopher Nolan, only just got to how i think the man from Memento could have rationalised his workflow. Don’t think we’re going to get to the Odyssey within this melee period
my favourite part of the Odyssey was when Odysseus looked directly at the camera and explained exactly what type of mystery cult he belonged to
We continue with MILF history month, and it’s Anne Boleyn time (had Phoebe not been curbed then the episode would have been 4 hours long, just another example of how women are silenced) @miloedwards.bsky.social @patrickwyman.bsky.social @phoeberoi.bsky.social linktr.ee/mastersofpod
dreamt that i got into a ton of trouble because i’d directed a 4 hour old style martial arts epic and no one realised until it premiered that i had refused to use any music for it that wasn’t 24 Carat Magic
i think there *was* a sort of giddy ‘no strangers only friends i haven’t met yet’ energy to early twitter & i do wonder what ripple effects there would have been if it had been more usual back in 2010 to reply ‘do i know you’ if someone said something out of pocket in your mentions
They called him Ceowulf the Small, but when the ball came his way... BOOM went his boot, and into the goal! All the housecarls couldn't believe that little CEOWULF had scored a GOAL! Even though they didn't win the game, and their mums bought them Mæcdonalds! (From THE LITTLEST BRAVEST SAXON)
working up a theory that kane has an alchemist’s potion that makes him play like a demon for 3/4 of a tournament and then when its effects run out it metastasises into a pheromone that sends every manager who comes into contact with him completely insane
you know how haloarchaea (microorganism thought to be bacteria but are actually molecularly distinct & aren’t bacteria or complex life but a secret third thing) turn the algae & water red, and that turns the shrimp red, then that turns the flamingos pink, well those tiny guys got Jordan Pickford too
remember that linguistic tributary moment when people put ‘le’ in front of nouns? ‘Le sigh’ etc? i liked that, we should do that again
RIP sam neill who responded incredibly graciously to my hospital grade painkiller-induced Sam Neill Sam Stand meme. he wasn’t even kneeling in the picture i found, he was squatting. i blocked everyone who pointed it out.
i’ve been watching this show called Best Medicine about a curmudgeonly doctor named Dr Best who moves to a delightful fishing village, & what i want to know is what happened to all these Jenna Maroney-adjancent shows with pun titles? where did they all go? is it something to do with CERN
It’s the most important time of the year. Lads: it’s MILF history month, & kicking off this year’s celebrations, we’re talking about Olympias, the mummy of Alexander the Great @miloedwards.bsky.social @patrickwyman.bsky.social @phoeberoi.bsky.social linktr.ee/mastersofpod
starting a subway takes rival called No Stupid Questions, it’s just me slumped into a spinal s-curve on the tube while people ask their stupidest questions (episode 1: so did they like, find all the dinosaurs or what)
we’re back baby and we’re talking about Roman concrete @miloedwards.bsky.social @patrickwyman.bsky.social @phoeberoi.bsky.social linktr.ee/mastersofpod
even during this alarming heat, it is great to see the normally intra-hostile European nations come together to enjoy an international tournament of a beloved sport (getting mad at and yelling at yanks)
