iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

That's the first Disco Elysium meme I've seen 😂

I don't know how the people who were scared of AvP, FEAR and System Shock 2 managed to vote on this as I'd expect looking at an Excel Spreadsheet would be too terrifying for them.

Everyone in that show did a great job. It's technically my least favourite Trek series, but I adored watching it because of the wonderful characters and the genuinely fantastic performances.

I never got motion sickness. Because I cut my gaming teeth on Descent 😂

I've had Weird Al's haunting masterpiece "eBay" stuck in my head for months now. I believe the Backstreet Boys did a cover of it, too. youtu.be/nUKgeAKTaXM?...

I've had a quick look at your profile "Roy" and I can't find a reason why anyone should give a damn about anything you say.

Love it to bits. No other game really scratches that same itch.

The way you hear it roar when you walk into its tunnel and the fleeting glimpses of a distortion moving through the darkness. Also the Controller on the way out. That game was a masterclass of atmosphere.

Okay there are parts of some that absolutely get me. The Snork cave on Call Of Pripyat... pretty much all of Countrycide...

I'm not scared of video games because I'm a grown up.

As a dad, I can confirm that the thought of "what if I just went to sleep right now instead?" is the main thing in my mind when I'm ten minutes into literally any activity.

My daughter's favourite animal; she loves how little they seem to give a shit about anything. Plus she got this utterly massive bastard for Christmas:

Me giving a Fist Bump to my daughter's GINORMOUS CAPYBARA snuggly toy.

We went from "divine justice" to "aren't animals kyoot doe" in very few steps.

Andrew @andrewmichael.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Word to the wise: The capybara's aren't as well guarded... much easier to cuddle.

Andrew @andrewmichael.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

The fact that I am not currently snuggling an otter is an absolute outrage.

I used to have high hopes for dolphins, but they turned out to be a bunch of racist sexual predators. Maybe the octopusses...? (Octopi?) (Octopussiesus???)

Ain't that the depressing as fuck truth 😔

Ahhh, memories. Also look how good I was that I said 'memories' instead of... well, anyway, nevermind.

Andrew @andrewmichael.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

This is still as relevant today as it was when I first posted it.

Andrew @andrewmichael.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

For example, Charlie Kirk getting drained and ventilated was funny and all, definitely poetic, but still only a fraction of what he deserved.

Andrew @andrewmichael.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Even then, it only lasts for as long as the person does. Many people deserve to keep suffering for at least a time equal to the suffering they've caused.

Sometimes, the lack of divine justice is incredibly upsetting.

Andrew @andrewmichael.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

I guess fans maybe were in their teens and identified with Luke when it came out? They grew up with the character over the next few years, so they put him on a pedestal...? Best explanation I got!

Andrew @andrewmichael.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Also, I warn you; (I earn you... flippin' autocorrect, I ask you...)

010

Andrew @andrewmichael.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Also, I earn you; my Star Wars opinions are famously terrible - Star Wars the film is one of my favourite movies of all time and it should have absolutely been a stand alone film; everything after the first one just took more and more away from it.

210

Andrew @andrewmichael.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

I guess so! Which ones were superheroes in the original trilogy?

210

Andrew @andrewmichael.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Indeed. To be honest, there are a LOT of Red Flags out there... they signal "Potential Danger" and a reason to be wary. For example, I'd find any recently divorced middle aged white guy who drives a pickup truck to be an immediate Red Flag. ... Even though I know that describes me.

210

Andrew @andrewmichael.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Since we only see one Jedi in the first films and he was the protagonist, they weren't really shown as superheroes or wizard space ninjas... they were men twitching and jabbing glow sticks at each other. The prequels definitely made them into superheroes.

120

Andrew @andrewmichael.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Same for the first Rambo and Starship Troopers... though you can generally tell by looking at the person why they're a fan of it.

010

Andrew @andrewmichael.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Definitely the best Star Wars film.

000

Andrew @andrewmichael.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Just anything Mel Gibson, if I'm honest.

110

Andrew @andrewmichael.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Red Flags aren't bad in and of themselves... so long as there's enough Green Flags to balance it out.

110

Andrew @andrewmichael.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

I always think "what kind of moron could watch Starship Troopers and not realise it's satire?" but then I remember that there are conservatives who love Star Trek; a show that has spent more than sixty years mocking them.

Andrew @andrewmichael.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Tried watching with my daughter a while back and she also asked me "when does it get good?" SW is one of my favourite films, but yeaaaah... the most interesting thing that ever happened with Uncle Owen and Aunt Peru was finding their charred bones.

🎵 She was working in a Bridal shop in Flushing Queens, when her boyfriend kicked her out in one of those crushing scenes... What was she to do? Where was she to go? She was out on her fannyyyy 🎵 (As a kid in Britain watching it, that always made me laugh for immature reasons.)
