Bethany wore a “Protect The Dolls” t-shirt during rehearsals. The BBC posted it on their socials then quietly deleted and reposted it without showing her from the front. On TV last night they actually blurred the message #Strictly

“Where are all the women” ask knuckle dragging far right scum while talking about asylum seekers. Getting sexually assaulted by British men, it would seem.

Finally got a week off work to myself so hopefully trying to get #OptimusPrime here repainting as part of the #Ghostbusters team. #modelkit

The beginning of repainting a model kit of Animated Optimus Prime but in Ghostbuster colours. So far, only the top body and part of the axe have been given primer paint.

Reform Wales leader Dan Thomas: "I was released without charge". That’s one way to say "bailed while investigated for assault and coercive/controlling behaviour”. Protect our women, right? Still, I guess at least *this* Welsh Reform leader isn’t being bribed by Russia. Well, as far as we know…

Whst the Wall means to people. "My dad's heart..." ♥️

A sign posted on a green near the memorial wall. It reads:
THE NATIONAL COVID MEMORIAL WALL

"My Dad's heart is a reminder that he was loved so much and is missed every
second of every day. It also symbolizes to me that his life was taken by
something that could have been avoided if things were done differently. It's a
place of unity for all those that had their loved ones taken before their time."

Decided to leave my local Town group because everyone so often, when there's a crime and the offender in question JUST SO HAPPENS to be a certain skin colour, it's all the same racist rubbish echoed from the usual lot. I try to argue, but honestly, I'm using too much of my energy on those wankstains

🚨 The archived version of the suppressed Amnesty report into the anti-trans network operating to dismantle human rights in the UK has been "excluded" from the Wayback Machine. JKR is working very hard to scrub its existence from the eyes of the public. Thankfully, I kept screenshots.

I just want to enjoy movies without the stars, the directors, the producers or even the bloody catering team willing to give their voice or money to some monsters. I get it's not EVERYONE, but it seems like a lot more than I realise. 😞

I think one of the reasons I don't go to the cinema anymore is that I've seen so many "stars" in recent years show their true colours, whether it be supporting a PDF file becoming a leader of a country or thinking the 💣 of 👶 is "okay in their books". Just feel so sick, even buying a DVD on sale. 🤮

It's so sickening to see the amount of "Laughing" emoji reactions and vile comments under the articles on Facebook, and they get to continue being absolute vermin. If I was a boss and saw anybody under my employment who did that, I'd tell them the next time they fuck up, they're jobless. 😡

It’s worse now. While racism has always existed, the National Front used to just be fringe lunatics. Now they’ve made the rhetoric seem normal, have taken it mainstream and have been elected to the Houses of Parliament.

I was so lucky to see this whenever on holiday in a Hotel room. Most of the shows I watched from this were on CBBC, CITV, a portion of the morning on Channel 4 (not sure if it had a name or not) or Milkshake/Shake. Dexter's Laboratory was always fun.

The fact that J.K. Rowling successfully bullied Amnesty International into taking down a report that accurately called out her attack on trans people, especially trans women, is so repulsive and such a display of the power of her money, and her choice to put her vast fortune behind persecution.

Kudos to #starfox players who can do expert levels. Trying to do the Expert challenges and I BARELY did one of them. Wings feel like they're made out of paper mache. Goes to show how crap I am. Sadly never played the N64 version, only had the SNES and the next Nintendo home console was the Wii.

Also love the loading screen where you can control a lil' Arwing image in the bottom right corner, takes me back to the SNES version's menu where you can test out the control settings with a mini-arwing there.

Decided to have one last go on the #Starfox demo and try out the mouse mode. Took a bit of trial and error with the new button placements, but it works. But I don't think I'll be switching between mouse and regular controller during the campaign, maybe like a mouse-only run or something.

Ben Derrick @derrickbenedict.bsky.social · 20/06/2026

Took a couple of attempts, but I finally succeeded going through the warpgates and Accomplished Meteo! Can't begin to imagine trying that on an N64 controller (never even touched one yet).

Finally got around to playing the demo of the new Starfox game. Still had to get used to the bomb and laser button placements (wasted SO many bombs in meteo. Whoops) and failed to go through the warp gates (had problems on the 3DS version as well). But thoroughly enjoyed it. #starfox

Something goes wrong like I forget something important or something generally bad happens, or I look at the thing I've done and realise nobody else wants to see it. It's just another piece of garbage done by me and no one else will enjoy it. They'd rather look at gen AI rubbish instead.
