I will be so annoyed if this turns out to be the thing that finally unravels him.
Donald Trump’s White House is melting down over Wednesday night’s South Park premiere, which just so happened to attack the president’s “teeny tiny” manhood. Story: rollingstone.com/politics/polit…
Here's my eulogy to Hulk Hogan. I apologize in advance to all the wrestlers who follow me. Hogan is a textbook example of American mediocrity. Despite being a racist, sycophantic, backstabbing grifter, almost every match he's ever had was a flat one-star snoozefest. He was so…
The replies and quotes are full of tweetists who don't recognise a joke when they see one, and it's glorious
Pens down everyone. Literature has peaked.
Hulk Hogan passing away reminded me that this photo exists...

- Using gen AI negates all credibility you have across the board. - Authors should not respond to negative reviews. - It's fine to review a DNF. - I will absolutely DNF over formatting. - Three stars are fine, actually. - You are not owed a review on a two or one star rating.
Mark Tbatcher's attempted coup of Equatorial Guinea. Including the whole thing where his mercs, in order to earn screen/production credits to support their cover story of being a film crew, appeared as extras in Paul Greengrass' "Bloody Sunday" (2002).
Which real-life event do you think deserves a proper movie adaptation?
It's easy to argue that something isn't real if you deliberately use the wrong definition.
Antisemitism is NOT real. I’m not religious. The idea that I have to accept your goofy fucking Jewish stories about you being God’s chosen people and accept the existence of your apartheid state is ABSURD. Fuck you
Now begins the struggle to get my book on the shelves of independent bookshops. This will be a test.
I'm probably going to enjoy this regardless, but I hope it doesn't continue from the AvP films, because they were ass.
‘PREDATOR: BADLANDS’ officially follows a Predator and Weyland-Yutani android teaming up. In theaters on November 7.
there needs to be more education for people, especially men, relating to sexual violence because a shocking amount don’t know what is and isn’t sexual harassment or rape. how are we meant to make progress when lots of people don’t know the basics?
"We demand: ✔ Full prosecution of the attackers—NO leniency, NO excuses ✔ Urgent reform of juvenile justice laws for hate crimes ✔ Public recognition of this attack as a hate crime committed on a false accusation' #HateCrime #Tallaght change.org/p/enough-is-en…
We're getting gaslighted in the most fucked up way
I saw a post from an author saying their authentic work was flagged as AI. I was curious, so I put some of my new book into an AI detector online... This is from my rough draft!! As in, the crap I wrote at 2am. My flabbers are ghasted, yall.
Lads I'm reading a Jorge Luis Borges short and a character from Dungarven has just shown up you have no idea how funny this crossover is to me
Happy anniversary to the podcast that does for agriculture what Society did for the word "shunt." Sublimely weird and not a little disturbing.
TEN YEARS OF BEEF Today's new episode marks ten years since the first episode of Beef and Dairy Network was released.
“We didn’t want to put a leather outfit on him and have him start killing vampires.” Aaaaahhh, I seeeeee.
Kevin Feige says Marvel Studios’ ‘BLADE’ is still in development with Oscar winner Mahershala Ali still attached to star. The film will be set in a modern-day setting: “We didn’t want to put a leather outfit on him and have him start killing vampires.” (deadline.com/2025/07/marvel…)
The other weird thing about these movies is that the cops are decent and experts are respected. Cop: This is a bit far-fetched, Professor. Prof.: I realise that, Constable, but it's the only explanation. Cop: Fair enough. I'll tell the lads to watch out for a vampire kangaroo.
(45 minutes of screen time later) "Good heavens, Sir Gregory! What manner of creature is this? A wallaby? A werewolf?" "Worse, my dear Thompson, hahaha... it is... A KANGA-LOUP-GAROO!!!" (The beast attacks Thompson; neon red blood squirts across the wall; brass section sting)
