Wow that new Futurama episode about the numbers world was odd. I didn’t hate it, but it didn’t fully land either.

I saw a job for Harry Potter brand manager lol

I hate cutting people loose; only done it a small handful of times in my whole life. Never done it lightly or too ‘reactively’ either. But having bad friends physically ages you, man. Life’s too short for people who wear you down daily.

It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

I saw a voice mod for FFIX recently and it was surprisingly excellent and made the game even better.

Ah yes, beloved children’s character from Minecraft, Green Cock With A Face

weirdest thing about the Ed Gein show backlash is people still watching it. You don’t have to give Netflix your views, you can just hear it’s terrible and walk on by. There’s so many other good things to watch.

A Black Assassin killing the KKK? I’d have preordered the game so fast. I’d do every side mission. That would bring me joy.

The local Co-op believes they had a ghost that they caught on CCTV, walking through one of their freezers at 2am. I have not seen said spicy footage, but I heard all about it in the barbers.

I didn’t finish the Hatsune Miku event but got pretty far into it before the end. I’ll never forget being a Robotnik with a team of Miku’s on hoverboards assisting

SHF: finished the first pass. It’s fantastic but has several YMMV barriers to enjoyment I think. Acclimatising to the combat, dealing with obtuse puzzles and a story that’s hilariously baffling until *it clicks* and then it’s a painfully relevant and gripping masterwork.

The Simpsons scene where Mr Burns announces that everyone who has found true love can leave early. Except he says "every country who's arrested and imprisoned a President within the past year may leave early". France, South Korea and Brazil celebrate

Silent Hill F: just hit a big turning point, and yeah I get it. It’s a masterpiece. Also, holy hell.
