maybe it’s time to invest in dalekanium

A parody finance segment from “Whovians”, Australian lost media which was a panel/comedy show that talked about Doctor Who immediately after it aired.

Dalekanium is decreasing in stock market value, currently trading at $1.10AUD

It’s pretty sad that i’ll probably never be able to get the cute meowth cards from the 30th anniversary set, but i also don’t want to line up at 5am for cards like a crazy person or pay $360 for a box of cards imported from malaysia

I’ve been rewatching @jennynicholson.bsky.social’s Star Wars Hotel video and even if you don’t have 4 hours, those chapters on marketing, price and spirit airlines are *really good* viewing, like especially if you are, say, doing marketing

For context. This is an Eegra Hilarity Comic from May 2008, but Tim the nonspecifically unfortunate work experience kid was a character carried over from Total Gamer. It was great putting shit like this into an actual print magazine you could buy in newsagents and supermarkets.

@dkvine.com forgot I had this vid from when I went to Nintendo Land Osaka last year! Couldn’t really see any of the cool animatronics for the DK ride cause I was on the lower level, but I managed to grab this clip of Cranky who wouldn’t shut up Squawks was there too

I mean If they’re able to justify that the term has become genericized, then that might be interesting After all “There’s no such thing as a nintendo”

Reminds me of one of the few times I was able to recall a dream Jameela Jamil was hosting QI and spreading nutella on bread. Behind her was a large banner of four golden retrievers riding bikes in a forest, they were dressed as the cast of The Good Place The banner had BORTKINS 3 on it in Impact
