Hello Bluesky, I’m iain, Irishman living in Malaysia. I used to review movies online and on the radio here, I write occasionally and do VoiceOvers too. Oh and I’m also an IT project manager and accidentally became a CTO in my last job. 🤷♂️ I’m freelancing now. I post a lot of food pics.

Haha liberals and centrists, just for a bit (like in the "as a bit" sense and also the "just for a while" sense), try just chilling and voting/doing the things the progressives have been saying just to see what would happen, you know since that hasn't ever been tried and you keep losing, haha

Rep. Ilhan Omar: "I hope he gets the help he needs. It sounds like he's trying to deflect from the failures that he's had as president ... he's fought to be the head of the pedophile protection party."

got banned for life from the TaleSpin forums for suggesting that Baloo in TaleSpin is NOT the same bear as Baloo in The Jungle Book. People were screaming at me to shut the fuck up even though I provided EVIDENCE

I'm absolutely part of that lower demand. Bought cheap, stand-alone installations of pre-AI Microsoft Office and cancelled my 365 sub months ago, so they're losing money on me.

Luckily I got to se STP in Singapore a few years prior. The gig was half full, we were right up the front. He was electric.
10 years ago today, Scott Weiland passed away. The Stone Temple Pilots and Velvet Revolver frontman left a lasting mark on rock with a voice and style that defined an era.

The answer, in terms of 'what the Average Joe do to combat the attempts to oust trans people from society' is to just start new clubs that are renamed the inclusive womens institute, and let their crusty old clubs die with their members.

Not to sound like a stuck record, but '400 jobs to be lost in city as car plant/steel works/aerospace facility closes' would be treated somewhat differently, I suspect.

My last word on the Die Hard discourse is that McClane uses season’s greetings tape to stick his gun to his back in the climax and this is all you need to make it a Christmas movie.

RIP Bizarre Creations. Metropolis Street Racer and Project Gotham was great. Even Blur was pretty good, despite it being the game that killed them. If it just had a slightly more traditional progression system I think people would've vibed with it a lot more.
