They're maddeningly inconsistent/incompetent. I tried watching the 80's movie Alligator on there the other day, and found the opening scene's gore covered up by whopping great big blurry circles:

Books are over. Mail order books are now very, very good. You just don't know yet. [INSERT NAME HERE] meets Santa has solved infinite personalised books.
A page from one of those mail order Xmas books where you tell them your kid's name and age etc. and they put the same details in a book about meeting Santa.

Samus + hungry arm = the crossover we all need
A GIMP-edited version of Samus from Metroid: Ravenous, in which her hungry arm is partly replaced with Kirby, mouth agape and ready to eat. Also there is a tomato on Samus' arm because this is how I spend my Friday nights now, adding superfluous details to image edits

Pride was fun, some great acts on the main stage as always, and we got to meet my brother in law's fiance who seems like a nice fella. Artist stalls were thankfully AI-free - I even got a cool anti-AI badge amongst some other swag:
A snazzy 2" button badge with a sparkly blue snakeskin background, the badge reads "I HISS AT AI" in blocky red text and features a sassy hissing brown mottled snake, flicking its tongue out to hopefully ward off shitty art - the snake is also sparkly

A poor edit of the "I think we're gonna have to kill this guy, Steven" meme replacing Steven with Van Helsing and Garnet with Kate Beckinsale's character whose name I forget. She's saying "I think we're gonna have to kill this guy, Van Helsing" and he's saying "OK!" which is about as good as the dialogue gets in the movie as well so giving myself points for accuracy there.
