Take a few minutes to appreciate Drew Struzan creating the original artwork for THE PHANTOM MENACE. Truly a master at work.

You're telling me one episode is about someone complicit in a concentration camp attempting to make and example of himself to try and redeem the soul of his people and the very next episode is about religious fundamentalist terrorism???

this is what speculative fiction can DO

lets say a wizard has cursed you with a lot of money. you are going to become permanently brain damaged simply by being in possession of so much money. the only way out of it is to spend a lot of money on something ridiculous and not at all useful

what would you buy to break the curse?

Still a lot of people that seemingly don’t know we’re all @secondwindgroup.com now making the best stuff we’ve ever made.

There’s literally nobody left working on video at the old site.

Just a dead brand being used for name recognition for gambling shit.

Recently the voice actor for Dr Ratio in Honkai Star Rail came out in support of Charlie Kirk and his ideals, and when saying this he added in one of many posts that “many fellow VAs feel the same.”

Some actors have hand waved this statement as bullshit.

But I do think it’s important to examine.

I’m looking forward to Labour’s unhackable Digital ID.

We are getting in touch from the LNER Data Protection Team to tell you that a personal data breach has taken place.
What happened
On 8 September 2025 we were told that one of our suppliers, who manages our customer communication database, had suffered a security incident. A third-party gained unauthorised access to the supplier's networks and in the process gained access to customer data.
As a result of our investigation of the breach so far, we have concluded that the data included some personal information, specifically your name and email address.
No payment card details, passwords or your LNER account information were involved.
Our ticketing systems remain safe, and you can continue to buy tickets from LNER as normal.
Because your name and email address were affected, it's possible you will receive phishing or scam messages.

Produced in 24 hours, done under a punishing deadline, no time to hang about - yet that image IS "The Thing" to me, and to millions of others as well, I suspect. Those images, those compositions, those posters ARE the films, in my head. What a talent. He'll be so missed.

Rest in Peace to the great Drew Struzan, a man whose work sparked the imaginations of a whole generation of movie nerds. The master is gone.

I had the privilege of visiting him in his studio once and getting to talk shop. Here’s his words on one of his masterpieces:

seeing as we're all talking about the proposed language requirement changes for visas: here's the email my wife was sent for her B1 test in 2018. imagine spending about £800 in total across 3 tests, and you're met with

"YOU TEST DAY INFOMRATION"

"please bring this document with you on the day of your test. this is a confirmation letter for your life skills test. YOU TEST DAY INFOMRATION"
