Learned yesterday of a metal Britney Spears tribute act called Britallica. Looked some up and sadly I like the concept much more than I do the reality. However, It made me imagine BOY DIVISION: five hunky, pretty lads who do Joy Division, New Order, Electronic and Monaco songs in the style of NSYNC

Having never seen Hi, Mom! (1970, Brian De Palma) I have no idea what the right mood is to be in to watch it so I never have. However, straight after two other Gerrit Graham films in tribute seems as good a time as any.

This is the point where I felt our cult, Peel-endorsed, weirdo sampling avant-garde disco band went a bit too mainstream for my liking.

As the topic of retro gaming-focused YouTubers and lack of scruples is a hot one (for good reason), I wanted to take a moment to share in this thread some of the ones I watch. I'd recommend them as decent, passionate folk, and will share a video to start off with. 🧵

HUGE NEWS: Chris Morris spotted filming in London this week! Assuming this is related to his "snake oil of dataism and AI" project, given he recently appeared with Cory Doctorow. If you have any info then please let me know: waynecarr@gmail.com www.cookdandbombd.co.uk/forums/index... #ChrisMorris

Screenshot from the Chris Morris subforum on Cook'd and Bomb'd. It reads:

"This isn't much of a wicked whisper, but a friend spotted yer man doing some filming in central London yesterday. I've seen photographic evidence, he was there with a small film crew in hi-vis and they appeared to be filming traffic.

Anyone know what he might be working on?"

Quote from the PBJ Management website, the agent for Chris Morris. It reads:

"His most recent feature film The Day Shall Come satirized the wanton injustice of FBI sting operations and he is currently working on projects about the Anglo American Coup in Iran in 1953 and the snake oil of dataism and AI."

Screenshot from the Barbican website for a past event, it reads as follows:

"Cory Doctorow in Conversation with Sarah Wynn-Williams and Chris Morris
Dystopia is Not the Future
Sat 15 Nov 2025, 15:00,Frobisher Auditorium 1"

Backrooms (2026 | Dir: Kane Parsons)

A shot of Homer and Marge Simpson from an early Simpsons short on the Tracey Ullman show. They are at home and apart from a framed photo of Baby Maggie, the pastel pink walls are bare and behind Homer, despite this being a normal family home, is a perplexingly high number of slightly-offset wall arches leading through a series of apparently bare rooms.

I know that Freemasons and their places of operation aren’t exactly the super-secret setups they’re often portrayed as but I was still amused by this:

I consider my spelling pretty good (whether iOS renders these spellings accurately is a different matter) but somewhere between “desperate” and “separate” I can get extremely lost.
