Damn. Cronos from Venom just died! They are an extemely influential to modern heavy metal. Founded in 78 their 1982 album Black Metal is where the genre got its name. The singles on their 2026 album kick ass. That’s a legacy to be proud of. Rest in power chords, Conrad "Cronos" Lant 🤘🏻

Interesting fact about Conrad Lant (aka Cronos), the vocalist /bassist of British heavy metal band Venom, who has died at 63: His older brother Graham was drummer for Prefab Sprout in the mid-1980s, including on debut album Swoon. #RiPConradLant #RIPCronos

*extremely austin powers voice* yeah baby yeah!

An absolutely incredible moment from OGROFF where the main woman character breaks the 4th wall and shows her bleeding hand to the camera. IIRC there's no comparable moment in the rest of the movie.

love to see soulless creeps with zero interest in art gloat about how their technology will create better art - like, why would anyone trust you to know what's good or not? you were just aimlessly looking for something to "disrupt" and you landed on human creativity

"Economy Candy, which has sold sweet treats from the Lower East Side since 1937, typically ships about 30 to 50 packages of Sunkist gems every day, including to upward of 50 synagogues around the country." Great requiem for Fruit Gems:
