It was supposed to be killer robots with plasma rifles… That being said, the idea of John Connor bringing down SkyNet by destroying data centres does kind of tickle me.

The only reason I know that’s not @robertmackenzie.bsky.social’s wife’s TikTok account is because that’s not their kid, but she was my prime suspect :P Anyway, account is @smcropley on TikTok for those that are interested.

The Emma Frost x Miss Piggy comic has hit the internet and it's so, so, so much more magnificent than I ever could have hoped for
Emma Frost: "Emma Frost, darling. I'm a telepath. May I read your mind to ascertain if you're telling the truth?"

Miss Piggy: "But of course, darling I am an open book, a tell-all memoir."Emma Frost telepathically witnessing the entirety of Miss Piggy's life.Wolverine: "Frost? She legit?"
Emma Frost: "She's..She's... She's everything. And I would die for her."

This is so dumb. This is “invented a new kind of stupid” kind of stupid. It got four Emmys. It beat Taylor Swift. The audience was massive. Sabrina Caroenter is now halfway to EGOT status because of it. And they can’t get their shit together to make another 8-10 episodes for a year’s season??

You might want to buy a couple of specialty tools before you do so. There are a couple of decent iPhone maintenance kits out there.

Kyle Chandler is unsurprisingly perfect as Hal Jordan. I’ve not seen Aaron Pierre on anything else, but he holds his own as a less experienced but still capable John Stewart. This is going to be a slow burn, and I am looking forward to it play out at that pace.

So #Lanterns is exactly what it said on the tin; ‘Green Lantern’ by way of ‘True Detective’. So we’ve got a couple of antagonistic cops investigating a weird crime in the middle of nowhere with a sinister small town hierarchy and a plot taking place over multiple time periods.

Somewhere out in the multiverse, there’s a reality with a version of ‘Hudson Hawk’ that stars Audrey Hepburn as the villain. I gotta get to that reality.

I am very proud of our time travel audio comedy #NightTerrace. I think it’s very good and funny, and you can get it here: nightterrace.com I don’t plug it often because we’ve been struggling to finish a third season for many years. But I’d love more folks to enjoy the first two seasons.

Sitting in a cafe drinking too much coffee and reading a psych report for a sentence this afternoon as Alice Cooper’s ‘Poison’ plays in the background. A strange moment.

I also hear the Mexican and South Korean supporters are close to getting matching BFF tattoos 😛 The Australian contingent have been chanting “Aussie boys on a bender, Donald Trump is a sex offender”. It’s enough to make one feel patriotic 😛

So Americans are discovering that (ignoring what a corrupt and awful organisation FIFA is) that sport is the great unifier, people generally don’t have a problem with one another, and politicians are the problem.

All true. But surely there’s a better choice for those disenfranchised voters? Hanson is already a two time loser who has previously imploded. I’m surprised Rinehart chose her to back under the circumstances.

This on the day I find out that Jesse Eisenberg refuses to reprise his role as Mark Zuckerberg in a film as he finds the man, his politics and his actions reprehensible. I find that hilarious as Eisenberg has played Lex Luthor. Comic book villains are less monstrous than real world billionaires.

I feel like parts of my brain are waking up after a long slumber. Being on the other side of the bar table is flexing muscles I feel like I haven’t used in a long time. Feels kind of amazing.
