I am researching for a feature: what do your children play that's NOT Roblox? (And if you've banned it, what did they gravitate towards afterwards?)

I’m all caught up on The Morning Show. A dramatic and satisfying conclusion to its fourth season.

This is truly one of the standout shows on Apple TV+.

The drama between its characters in the competitive, cut-throat world of media and corporate business is delicious entertainment.

Just discovered that the original soundtracks for LittleBigPlanet 1-3 have finally been released on stream services.

LBP 1 and 2 have some of my all-time favourite ambient music. They’re marvellous! 🤩🎶

I was doing a product management basics course online.

The company that was offering it has now completely changed its training course website to be about “AI training”, and its foolish AI chatbot won’t let me raise a ticket to reach a human.

I was halfway through! Sigh… just why? 😩

Hot damn. Episode 9 of The Morning Show - Season 4 is fantastic!

This Marion Cotillard at her most sinister as Céline.

And Alex and Mia attempting to free Bradley from Belarus with a risky, hush-hush deal at an opera house was exciting.

I think it’s no coincidence that the most successful Xbox console launched with a numbered Ridge Racer. Just saying.

Star Trek 4 has been in development limbo for the better part of a decade.

So it’s not unsurprising that Paramount’s rotten new leadership has canned it.

But it’s still a pity. I was hopeful for some more Trek on the big screen.

"Well guys, you're gonna have to learn his f*cking name now."

I went on a rant at the Zohran Mamdani event last night, against billionaires who spent millions to try and stop a guy whose name they refuse to correctly pronounce.
