TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Look, I don't want to tell a mega corporation how to do its job but whoever decided to (1) do this and (2) use the word "new" to promote a Coke product again after the last time it happened deserves to be yeeted back to the 80s via a kick to the nards. 120
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Don't love the bland corporate font but they clearly saw the Paris "lady, but her hairline is a flame!" logo and said "hold my beer". So so so many layers to this. 101
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 01/10/2026#16: Cubs & Campfires (Dylan Drakes, 2024) I tried. It's clearly good, but I couldn't get into it, and I don't know why. Maybe it's just chapters are so long I couldn't "just a few minutes" it and the gaps between spare time were so long it kept taking me out of the story? 6/10. 000
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Any good? I hadn't heard about it until I saw it advertised on the side of a bus stop today. 100
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 25/09/2026TIL the Taskmaster Iceland trophy looks like they bought the bad Cristiano Ronaldo statue off of Temu. You're welcome, sleep paralysis demons. 061
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Yeah but in Australia someone does a hurdle and then someone else hurdles THEM. And they do it all in short shorts and no padding. 010
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Okay nerds, what would come fourth in this sequence? 100
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Now hearing the Diverse Stripes have pulled out of the Ed Sheeran tour. (No word on Rosalind, but she's always been a fucking nightmare.) 091
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 06/09/2026It took an entire 30-minute lunch break to get this far. And judging by the star ratings this is in the bottom 20% in terms of difficulty. It's going to take me like an entire month to get through this. 010
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Told a coworker last week I was thinking of getting back into puzzles as a self-care thing. Turns out logic puzzles were her lockdown hobby. Today I turned up and found a printout of a single logic puzzle that's SEVENTEEN PAGES LONG. Terrified just looking at it. This is just the last two pages: 121
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Also basically the styling of the discount brand in every indie supermarket in Australia, weirdly. 100
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Post something random or you'll have an awful September 020
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 31/08/2026For anyone who wishes to disagree, this is an actual exhibit at the Australian Museum in Sydney: 150
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 30/08/2026#15: The Open Era (Edward Schmit, 2026) Enjoyable enough and feels like it's trying to say something deeper about anxiety, but also what a paper thin plot. Like, "one tennis match stretched out over four chapters" thin. 6/10. 110
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 28/08/2026Welcome to Bluesky. Please familiarise yourself with the following accounts to understand the range of opinions it is acceptable to express 030
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 20/08/2026Friday rolls around faster and faster each week. 220
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 15/08/2026So, how foggy is it in Melbourne this morning? 051
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 15/08/2026#14: Boyfriend Material (Alexis Hall, 2020) Look, I laughed HARD at quite a few moments in this. But also, the leads are kind of not that interesting, either alone or together, all the supporting characters are one-note jokes, and the plot is wafer thin? Comedy goes a long way though. 6/10. 110
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 12/08/2026Without downloading any new pics, where are you at mentally? 220
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 09/08/2026I mean, at least that one is partly historically accurate. 070
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 30/07/2026Sometimes, you see a photo from a promo event that just hits you the right way. 030
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 25/07/2026I don't want to say I've never gone from "how the fuck am I supposed to get through another 400 pages of this?" to "I will ride or die for this writing" so fast in my life, but these two passages are on the SAME PAGE. 010
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 22/07/2026Help me pick a smutty novel to read, Bluesky. Got it narrowed down to these four. Thoughts in the alt text of the blurb photo. 401
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 22/07/2026I feel you. After watching Heated Rivalry I fell down the twin rabbitholes of "anything gay" and "anything with athlete smut", and... look, Read pile on the left, To Be Read piles on the right. I'm not proud. 000
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Simpsons Did It: "Isn't all Commonwealth politics the same?" edition. 010
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 19/07/2026#13: Winging it With You (Chip Pons, 2025) There's an excellent story to be made from the concept "two strangers fall in love while having to fake being a couple on Definitely Not Amazing Race For Legal Reasons". This... is not it. It's OK, it's just I don't buy the setup, show, or couple? 4/10. 100
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 04/07/2026Scrolling through the holiday photos, all the coworkers keep loving this photo I think is a bit garbage. Your thoughts? 010
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 27/06/2026And for the other obvious comparison, Brandon's 50 now, and: still would. 000
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 26/06/2026Pop quiz: Without cheating, guess the country this photo shows. 600
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 25/06/2026You know, it's not that World Cup logos are particularly bad or Olympic logos are that good, it's just here's the logo for the last time the US hosted the World Cup and the logo of the Winter Olympics in Norway that same year. 031
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 23/06/2026#12: See You at the Finish Line (Zac Hammett, 2025) I wanted to like "Heated Rivalry, kind of, but it's the Oxbridge boat race" so much. And the writing is decent enough that I'll buy the author's next book. I just wish I cared about the stakes more or, indeed, at all. 6/10. 100
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 22/06/2026Douze point for Go-Jo's ass, if nothing else. 020
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 22/06/2026Advertise your Bsky account with a Simpsons image 040
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 21/06/2026A likely place for a "sushi entrance", if that's what we're calling it these days. 020
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 20/06/2026I swear I've found just about every possible way to take a photo of that stupid tower without actually going up inside the thing now. 020
TheGrimRecapper @thegrimrecapper.bsky.social · 20/06/2026The sails have been added because none of the colours already there represented fans of musical theatre. 040
