Love a bit of sword-and-sorcery. Fighting for the old cause with the old weapons. Bit unusual but means well. He/Him.

Pure forgot this app even existed, not gonna lie. Anyway, are sci-fi and fantasy still in terrible shape, publishing wise, or?

Just thinking about that Conan quote about "The problem with civilized men is that they can say whatever they want with worrying about getting their skull split."

A kid got lynched and left to die and the school superintendent ignores that and instead makes some statement about the border crisis instead. Jesus tapdancing Christ.

Rating the new line names: Mildmay, Windrush, Weaver - fine, good even. Suffragette - smug, self-congratulatory, oddly whitewash-y considering the history Lioness, Liberty - fucking diabolical. Criminal choices.

Genuinely impressive to have come up with some names as embarrassing as the Elizabeth Line, mind, so fair play I guess.

I'm sorry, but the new Overground line names are just not great. Get that weirdos are frothing at the mouth about them, but there's no getting around the proper focus-group energy of some of these choices. "Lioness" line. Awful.

All my friends seem to like me and think I'm capable etc, so it's a bit of a shit that I struggle to think that of myself, all in all.

Demetrius Flannigan Fowl is an amazing name. He sounds like he is a mad wizard that casts football spells.

I think Monster Island, the island where all the monsters from the Godzilla films hang out and live together, is one of the best concepts we've come up with as a species

for a brief time we had a repository of common information at hand, a way to dig media out of storehouses and cross-reference data from different sources. but today, google is a website that lies to you about dogs

Cardiff Central may be one of Britain's most quietly pretty train stations. A proper lovely old-fashioned entrance building, love that. Granted, it's no Carlisle Citadel, but what is?

Not gonna lie, I genuinely thought Whil Weaton had died some time ago. Turns out he's still about. Funny old world.

Wales is a beautiful country with friendly people everywhere you go, but occasionally the price you pay for this is waiting for a fair old bit while the train figures out how best to get past a flash flood

Parody of the steamed hands short from the Simpsons. First screen shows Superintendent Chalmers wearing punk rock attire. Second screen shows principal skinner dressed as a steam punk guy with a tray of clocks and steam punk accessories.

Text on first panel says "I thought we were punk"

I consider it a hot take, but not a bad one by any stretch! It depends very much, I think, on how you interpret Silver and what he could represent in the story.

Guess I'm gonna have to force myself not to develop a furious desire to play Warhammer Fantasy again, given the likely cost of these new starter sets. If only, eh.

Broadly, humour is present to some degree in most movies anyway, so why are outright scripted jokes necessary? Strange, imo!

Yeah, agree wholeheartedly. It's frustrating that it's become a kind of truism, especially when it's clearly a projection in some people's cases.

I especially dislike, however, the implication that most people instinctively resent anyone doing "a job they enjoy," which seems a very mean-spirited thing to believe of a public that overwhelmingly supported last year's strike wave (for example)

Leon R. Davis @escapeveloc1ty.bsky.social · 22/12/2023
The fairest thing you can say is that most people are fairly ignorant about so-called "AI," on account of it largely being very badly reported on. This is not the same thing as them resenting artists, however.

The public actually quite likes art, you are all once again letting yourselves be taken in by noisy petit-bourgeois dickheads who want to position themselves as the majority opinion.

Tastes vary etc etc, but having watched them, I'm a little surprised that Deathstalker of all things is getting a comics revival. The world truly is full of mysteries.
