Likes to talk about movies, sometimes even sees them.

Frequent pusher of road cases, occasional pusher of faders.

"Yesterday I saw two women in Pornhub bodysuits with a big Pikachu walking around. And I was like 'is this illegal?' And she was like 'yeah it is'. And I was like 'YEAH!'"

is this worse if there is an unspoken quid pro quo (advertising dollars) or if there isn't
Today the Australian Financial Review published a single-source article on a Gina Rinehart speech bagging BHP & Rio Tinto, #climate action etc and not even 2 of Australia's biggest mining companies - let alone anyone else - gets a right of reply

A really low-grade puff piece #auspol

God, The Miracle Year rips. All of your favourite Hüsker Dü songs, often sounding better than the studio albums, played live with absolute conviction.

Ah I see Del Toro's Frankenstein is the graphic novel adaptation (complementary and derogatory). I could see each frame as a panel illustrated by Sana Takeda.

Unsubtle even by his standards.

Kind of think he'd benefit from making a Dogme 95 movie.

Everyone on Bluesky thinks they have the one question that would end Trump's presidency, if only a journalist would ask it.

Passing a law the requires everyone who talks about a band's "heaviness" to specify what, exactly, they mean. (Timbre? Loudness? Pitch? Dissonance? And of what element?)

As someone who loves Persona 4's structure but absolutely loathes how much of its humour is just casual misogyny I am intrigued by Demon School.

Worked a closed-doors rebranding event today and was repeatedly reminded not to take photos. Anyway, it turns out that Australia's most read news outlet ran a story with an image of the new logo back in June. (Someone spotted a copyright filing.)

Feel like gigs in Brisbane are consistently not selling as well as promoters' expect. Wonder if that's a factor in Brisbane getting 0 Laneway sideshows this year.

Train Dreams: Unfortunately this is pretentious. It seeks a profundity its folksy wisdom and (deliberately) myopic perspective cannot obtain.

I spent so much time in Marvel’s Deadpool VR having nonstop “Deadpool jokes” pumped directly into my ear that I started to see the very predictable anatomy of a “Deadpool joke.” So here is a cursed review of Marvel’s Deadpool VR. www.polygon.com/marvels-dead...

I can't believe that hate reading L*ke B*ckmaster didn't make me feel better. (Surely the only published critic who would put "pretentious" and "cerebral" in the same, negative box.)

I know one of these is Home And Away and the other is Neighbours but I am unsure which is which
Why is it that Australia’s biggest cultural exports are wildly successful children’s entertainment and the most fucked up horror movies you’ve ever seen?

Scout* barely realised that something round and hard, with smoke coming from it, had landed in front of them before it exploded.

Pain suddenly shot through their leg and arm. Scout fell to their knees, before someone nearby helped them rush out of the area.

Sometimes it's fun to think about how retail theft has never really gotten more sophisticated but, for some reason, retailers need ever more sophisticated tools to deal with it
