33, my toxic trait is I buy too many video games when I’ve got a backlog to finish off. Also a sucker for dogs, animals and sports.

Well, caught up on Lily Allen and Sigrid’s new album after a very busy but awesome weekend at MCM, both are utterly fantastic and the absolute carnage from Lily’s lyrics is something else. Both superb albums very worth your time.
Gen V finale was fantastic, appreciate the complaints from some fans that it’s just setting things up for the final season of The Boys but still a fantastic show in its own right. Really hope it can carry on once The Boys is done.
As someone who never got round to playing it when it came out I will take that all day long!
#ISwear was one of the most heartbreaking / inspirational films I’ve seen in a long time. Such an informative film about Tourette’s and the struggle people have daily with it. Shows how much more understanding we need to be as a society. Great film with amazing acting.
Well, finally finished #ThePaper and y’know what? That was far better than I expected and it had any right to be. As its own separate entity to The Office, it is a hella lot of fun.

Fly your flag people!!! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧🇬🇧

But if you didn’t fly it for the Lions…

Or the Lionesses

Or the Roses

Or Remembrance Day

Or VE Day

Or Team GB

Or the King’s Coronation

Then please do excuse us for questioning why TF you want to fly it now.
Well, #OneBattleAfterAnother was the masterpiece it was hyped up to be. That was brilliant and far too on the nose for how the world is at the moment. Fantastic film.
I hate it here Aaron 🙃😂
Forza Horizon being sat in Japan and having as much Japanese culture in it as possible makes me very very happy.

Sorry but I love him
The truth: we need migration.

The problem: too many politicians are terrified to say it.

Why? They're led by a) toxicity of the charlatans & b) wealthy media organisations who demand these useful distractions rather than us talking about inequality.

Reject it. Draw the line.

My book, Super Nintendo: How One Japanese Company Helped the World Have Fun, is out next February! It is a lively cultural history of the world's most beloved video game company, drawing from 20 years' worth of reporting and interviews. Pre-order here: linktr.ee/super_nintendo

It's so annoying that this flag painting bollocks is being encouraged by far right elements purely so that Farage has a kernel of pretext to spend the next few years going "You can't even fly the flag in this country!" without any pushback. It's transparent as fuck. This is what they do.
Can’t wait to read it Aaron, keep up the amazing work, honestly do mean it when I say you’re smashing it! Mad seeing how much you’ve done since the Push Square days! Killing it my friend 👌

Hard to believe it's already been a week since release, but THANK YOU to everyone who's picked up the book so far!

Seeing people post photos of their copies online and sharing the love has been surreal. 🙏 Get yours: www.bitmapbooks.com/products/50-...
Oh hey @aaronpotter.bsky.social, look what beautiful book came in the post today 👀👀👀👀 if you even have a remote interest in video games and especially indies, treat yourself to this everyone. It’s getting fantastic reviews and Aaron is one of the best in the business. Facts.
Trying to get back into reading (especially with these 12 hour shifts) and this was a brilliant read. Gives an interesting take on modern society.
The lionesses are something else man. Won’t ever hear any assholes say women’s football doesn’t matter, look at how it’s inspiring generations to come. Magical stuff. And Chloe Kelly is just IT. Absolutely brilliant.
They also need F4 to be the face of Marvel going forward, more films like this and Thunderbolts please Marvel. 🙏
Fantastic Four First Steps was actually brilliant, Vanessa Kirby utterly killed it as SS. Silver Surfer and Galactus were brilliant, my only slight complaint is I wish it was a bit longer. Of all the Marvel films that deserved a longer run time this really needed it.
Materialists really was something special. Brilliant movie.
Best lesson my mum ever taught me, costs nothing to be kind and respectful! People need to remember that sometimes 🙄

It’s very rare that I call a superhero film “lovely”, but that’s exactly what Superman is.

Superman himself is an affable nerd who just wants to help and do what’s right, and the film showcases that perfectly.

Top work as ever from @jamesgunn.bsky.social, and what a fab cast!

First post in a while to say Atomfall is a very good game and well worth 15-20 hours of your time. Finally finished it tonight and also looks better than ever with recent updates.
