LFC fan. Love reading horror/sci-fi/fantasy, enjoy writing, movie fan, Warhammer 40k addict, gamer (Bioshock, Silent Hill 2, Alan Wake and Control are some of my favourites) and I adore music, owning way too many pairs of headphones.
Can be sweary. 18+
1.) Rogue (the coma is worth it).

2.) Galadriel. She's an elegant badass.

3.) Wonder Woman. Yes, cliché, but with a life that long, think of all the interesting stories!

4.) Seven of Nine, but not because of the tight costume. She's as socially awkward as I am and I feel kinship.
You are unattached and can date one choice each from the following categories.

Whom do you pick?

1) A Marvel mutant

2) A Tolkien character

3) A Justice Leaguer

4) A Star Trek Character

One choice for each category, GO!

There are people on Facebook openly praising Enoch Powell and I can only think about how far the Overton Window has shifted...

And of how f***ing stupid people are.

The willingness to embrace racism and xenophobia turns my stomach.

I'm single and bitter so I feel that I can say "F*** VALENTINE'S DAY!".
TBF, I do genuinely think it's a load of contrived nonsense that has lost all of its original meaning as well.
But mostly I'm just single, bitter and angry about it 😂

Urgh. They just think it'll save them money. No other thinking behind it. Integrity? Nah.

CEO Strauss Zelnick says generative AI remains a tool for enabling creators to do bigger and better things, but it sounds like a shift away from past comments.

@theguardian.com If you're not already, I would definitely have your journalists look deeper into the Peak Cluster carbon capture plans and the damage it is set to cause to an entire peninsula, it's communities and green belt land. It's being veiled in a lot of vagueness and secrecy.

@discotekmedia.bsky.social Is there any hope of the new Castle of Cagliostro dub appearing on Blu-ray at other retailers after an exclusivity period? I only ask as CrunchyRoll will *not* ship it to England and I'd dearly love to hear my favourite cast in the new dub. TIA.
January 30, 2026 at 10:27 PM
What an incredibly scummy business practice. So if something is niche, they just totally kill it? Ridiculous.
🚨BREAKING🚨

Crunchyroll has allegedly rolled out a new "Slow Sellers" policy for the Crunchyroll Store in which products that fail to meet internal sales expectations are flagged, leading to order cancellations & delisting of product to prioritize "fast selling" products from Well Known IPs

If you live on the Wirral Peninsula, I beg of you to sign this petition. This entire project will devastate our environment and decimate communities.
It will also place wildlife at major risk.
Peak Cluster is an abuse by major polluters.

I think even if I wasn't a chronic depressive, I'd still experience phases of thinking humanity isn't worth saving and the best thing that could happen is for some alien species to beam us all into a black hole so nature can recover and stop dealing with our neverending bullshit.

1/. Simply removing Bovino is not nearly enough for the consequences of his state-sanctioned crime and murder support spree. ICE’s too.

2/. Kristi Noem has to go too. And Stephen Miller and all who supported it.

And be prosecuted.
BREAKING Greg Bovino has been removed as Border Patrol "commander at large" and will return to El Centro Calif, where he is expected to retire soon. A stunning turnaround after Pretti killing. Bovino's traveling blue city crackdown is over www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

Well, I recently learnt that the government want a carbon capture facility built in my home village on green belt land....size of the new Everton stadium, 50m high chimney stacks, running 24/7, floodlit...all with totally safe CO² being piped through town... Not a peep from local press or MP.

Dear God, he is utterly bloody useless, and completely out of touch.

Please, Dems, ditch him. He's toxic to the party.
Majority of the country now wants to abolish and/or dismantle ICE and yet Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y. told the caucus the message had to be to “restrain, reform and restrict ICE.”

Once again it looks like Schumer is about to choke after getting a massive opportunity.

So pathetic and weak.
