James Parker @jamesgroundshatter.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Managed to pause Kraven the Hunter at the exact midpoint. Which is the terrible film equivalent of splitting the G. Try it yourself! 130

James Parker @jamesgroundshatter.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Never seen a more jarring intellectual gap than between the livestream of the Nobel Prize for Physics and the comments on the livestream of the Nobel Prize for Physics. Anyway, well done to Ice Cube for winning it, or something. 010
James Parker @jamesgroundshatter.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Welcome to BlueSky, the false equivalence platform. 100
James Parker @jamesgroundshatter.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Hey, you there! Not only is FITS2 on a big discount for the next couple of weeks, we've also got an exciting update planned very soon, AND all the recent reviews are good, so treat yourself. What else are you going to spend $10.39 on? An Amazon basics wire stripper and crimping tool? Get real! 067

James Parker @jamesgroundshatter.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Somehow ruining my 16 year marriage by suggesting we watch Kraven The Hunter on Netflix instead of "talking" about our "relationship" 030
James Parker @jamesgroundshatter.bsky.social · 30/09/2026They should have called this "actually it turns out there was a little more room left in hell" 030
James Parker @jamesgroundshatter.bsky.social · 30/09/2026I find it interesting that every generation gets its own acclaimed "misunderstood robot who just wants to help" movie. 060

James Parker @jamesgroundshatter.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Yes, I suppose that is what I wanted, Amazon, a clearly AI Generated novel-length review of a film that I just wanted to find out when it was going to be available to buy. 120
James Parker @jamesgroundshatter.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Think of the bigger picture. Maybe now cricket might finally break into the lucrative Indian market! 110
James Parker @jamesgroundshatter.bsky.social · 18/09/2026I really need a big piss but I also want to watch the darts. Please God give me a sign. 020
James Parker @jamesgroundshatter.bsky.social · 18/09/2026Saw Coyote vs. Acme today and loved it. You can see exactly why someone with no creativity, joy, or sense of humour would have preferred to write it off for tax reasons! 010
James Parker @jamesgroundshatter.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Quite apart from anything, openly admitting to indirect discrimination in your hiring process might not be the wisest thing to do as a CEO of a company that's just made quite a lot of money. If I was an ambulance chasing lawyer, I might have a little poke around. 120

James Parker @jamesgroundshatter.bsky.social · 09/09/2026Knowing Points of View contributors, they would be more likely to complain about someone not knowing the meaning of "decimation" than potentially wiping out all of humanity. 100
James Parker @jamesgroundshatter.bsky.social · 09/09/2026Someone in the gym this morning used a Christmas air freshener as a deodorant. There is no precedent for this emotionally, I have zero idea how to process this right now. 370

James Parker @jamesgroundshatter.bsky.social · 03/09/2026An absolute all-timer of vibes. Such a great idea, perfectly executed. You should buy it and play it, because if not you're... and I'm going to say it... a doofus. 042

James Parker @jamesgroundshatter.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Even as quite a Bayboy (which may or may not be the fandom term, I haven't checked), The Island is the peak of his incomprehensible editing style - even Transformers is more readable and that's saying something! 010

James Parker @jamesgroundshatter.bsky.social · 30/08/2026The three main types of GamesCom goer are posting their reflections: People who did B2C: "I have no stuff and everything hurts" People who did B2B: "I took this photo with two men that I see every 6 weeks" Terminally LinkedIn people who weren't actually there: "You can't stop the rise of AI" 182

James Parker @jamesgroundshatter.bsky.social · 18/08/2026New numbers twice a week, it's a liberty! They should have chosen a nice spread (6, 11, 23, 24, 31, 44, and the bonus ball 12) in 1994 and stuck with it. 120
