For preemptive blocking ease. Don't give him attention. He years for your attention. Make him sad and forget he exists like I had and am about to again.

Saddest show credits since Doctor Who: Earthshock... #SNLUK

The Spider Man Man?

Terrance Dicks' Doctor Who novelisations are the reason so many people my age fell in love with reading. Tie in books create life long readers and they are written by incredible authors who capture and expand on the stories that we know.

The box for this game is EXACTLY 12-inches long. You know what that means, don't you? The game is a foot.

“The internet is a store but it used to be a library” hits me like a slug to the chest

Watching Ghostbusters. Do we ever learn why Peter is carrying Thorazine around with him (on a date)?

I know my solution to everything starts with 'Let's build a wicker man', but let's build a wicker man.

Excellent. I will be intrigued to see how many profiles it can handle.

Dear BBC, can you stop pandering to Transphobic Extremist Racist Fascists please?

Well that was #Fantasycon. Great to see people, thanks for having me :)

Fun observation: The sad clown's paradox (aka the Pagliacci Joke) appeared on British kid's TV about a year before it appeared in The Watchmen. Did Alan Moore get the idea from Paul Daniel's Wizbit? We may never know...

Great chance to post my all-time favorite headline

My MP is @gregorpoynton.bsky.social . I would be stunned if he read this. He doesn't get it, and I don't think he's capable of doing so, sadly.

Not rude things, a thread:

We're hiring! We're looking for a Writer and Narrative Designer to join the Fallen London team at a senior or mid level. This position is permanent, remote, and full time, which for us means 35 hours a week. #GamesJobs

Go to google and search for 'Fat Bear'.

i thought about this old tweet tonight and how nothing has ever aged better

I need to learn to be more Zen. By which I mean I need to find out how to be in charge of a powerful alien spaceship...

Amazing news from Cosmic Lighthouse, who previously produced the Salvation's Child graphic novel.

✨FUCK✨ ✨GENERATIVE✨ ✨AI✨

Eine schöne Bastel- und Malarbeit. Manchmal trägt Obelix den Hinkelstein. Manchmal ist Obelix der Hinkelstein. Dürfte nicht leicht gewesen sein, diesen Stein zu finden. #Asterix #Fanart

For every like this gets, I'll give you a fact about Space: 1999. Have the first one for free! 1) Sylvia Anderson supposedly wanted a more vulnerable commander of Moonbase Alpha who didn't always have the answers to every situation. Robert Culp was a preferred choice of actor.

Seems weird the whole "are you ready for war if it happens" thing the government is pushing when clearly we've been at war via misinformation, funding far right hate groups, attacking British institutions and so forth for ages. A better question is "when is the government going to do something?"

More from Your Daily Dracula – Gilbert & Sullivan’s Dracula (2026)

I've had some more thoughts on this; I want to change the title of the game to 'Away Team' and have it specifically for small-party missions to worlds or other vessels. Basically a Star Trek-themed one-shot dungeon crawl game, with one page maps/adventures for the teams to experience.

i'm largely opposed to AI rather than viscerally angry about it but today some of my lovely non-computer friends anxiously asked about it ending the world and it filled me with rage. what right do you have to worry these nice people with your made up bullshit. how dare you. they don't even go here

A big villain in Andor is paperwork. It’s such a cold allegory for how people get crushed in the real world. You aren't being fought by a "dark side," you’re being deleted by an efficient clerk who wants a promotion. It makes the Empire feel way more dangerous and present. The monster is here now! 👊

Magnificent work by the @marvelbythemonth.com folks.

Alan Moore & Melinda Gebbie's "This is Information" from the 2002 9/11 Tribute Anthology comic is one of my favorite comics ever – its metaphorical approach to narrative had a profound influence on my comics making. I share bits of it in class frequently, but worth revisiting on this day...

PAUL: What’s in the box? REVEREND MOTHER: Pain. [PAUL hesitantly puts his hand in the BOX, then FROWNS IN CONFUSION. He pulls out A BAGUETTE.] REVEREND MOHER: Hōn hōn,

"Sony let Kojima's next experimental game slip away to Xbox" "The hot new Looney Tunes movie was barely saved from oblivion by Ketchup Entertainment" "No one can figure out the premise for a new Muppet Show" we are living through an era of exceptionally high incompetence from corporate leadership

Magic trick

On pre-order, Sophia McDougall's hilarious Mars Evacuees is back in the UK at last. Your kids will love this. wizardstowerpress.co...

An RNLI lifeboat guy here, and as I’ve been saying for many years now: why is it that the public have been subjected to hate campaigns against hated enemies including rescue services, Stonewall, Amnesty International, the left of the Labour Party, the National Trust, the Proms and Match of the Day?

If you were a Rogue Trooper bio-chip, which bit of kit would you like to be attached to. (Rogue Trooper's comrades have their personalities encoded on chips in case they get killed. )
