“Lox,” the word, across many languages has meant “salmon” for longer than humans have had the idea of money.

""It’s not just one less buyer. It’s the triumph of the Netflix business model, which is to be the only player in the business—building on years and years of successful work by the creatives they’re now going to f--k over,” one award-winning tv and film writer tells Vanity Fair."

My most-used words in 2025 were:

1. "shit" (97×)
2. "fucking" (70×)
3. "folks" (61×)
4. "kids" (58×)
5. "thinking" (55×)

Fucking shit, folks. This has me thinking I should tone down my language for the kids.

"But what about the republicans," you might ask. To which I have this to say:

"I am satisfied...that the problem of this war consists in the awful fact that the present class of men who rule the South must be killed outright rather than in the conquest of territory."

Credits rolled on Marvel Cosmic Invasion! I’ll need time to sit with this to decide if it tops Shredder’s Revenge, but this gave me about everything I could want in a Marvel beat-em-up. Stacked roster of diverse characters, tons of fan service, and a joy to play solo or in multiplayer.

The endgame is studios so risk averse they'll remake the same story over and over again in the hopes of appealling to angry wankers who don't realise that they're not so much angry that someone is trying to widen the universe, they're just angry they're not teenagers anymore.

That's modern fandom.

They are going to use AI to augment your experience …with advertising. That’s the end game. All this money you don’t want spent is going to tech you don’t need for selling you shit you don’t want.

All so the biggest assholes in the world can have even more money than anyone could ever possibly use

PRESIDENT’S PHYSICIAN: He’ll probably be out cold for a while; this last episode of diarrhea was quite painful for him.
