US Folk: Not only is #RobotDreams still in US theatres but it just got expanded to more in the past week! Go check your local cinema listings and if you can, go see it while you still can!! --> tinyurl.com/RobotDreamsUSA

Oh jeez, we've got another heatwave from Thursday or so? The fuck do I do if I'm not testing negative for COVID by then??????!!!!

Having COVID as a chronic germaphobe living with older people is one of the most stressful and difficult things ever, I do not recommend it. (On the 8th day of this shit after symptoms came up, if Antigen tests are being truthful)

I want to express my wishes of strength to certain England football fans over the next week. No, not because their team didn't win, but for having to deal with the less-sane fans' excuses to be racist as shit against the Spanish over a result of Grassgaze Sportsball.

Progressive values and Democrats are not responsible for this violence. There is no both sides here. Violent rhetoric is the bread and butter of modern extreme conservatism. And lax gun laws put a semiautomatic rifle in the hands of a gunman.

Putting the Euro 2024 coverage on only 'cause it's a Final where Team is there. It's muted currently yet even muted, jeez, football TV coverage is like...anti-art. How many montages do we need before the match and why are they all so smuggly irritating?

I'm not a shaudenfreud-type of person. But knowing the popular artist guy who replaced me in voicing a British voiceover for a student animation in the 2000's, who later got to make a show on Cartoon Network, has just been sentenced for posessing BDSM CP? I mean...wow, fudge. That's something.

People Magazine has written an accessible yet still thorough breakdown of Project 2025, its dangers, and how it is sooooo connected to Trump. If you don’t want America to become an extremist religious state - or you just want me to stop posting about it - give this a read. people.com/what-is-proj...

Google’s emissions are up 48% in 5 years. Microsoft’s are up 30% since 2020. Those soaring figures are being driven by mass investments in data centers to power AI tools. Generative AI is a climate disaster and data center expansion must be stopped.

Btw, if the tape itself has porn or anything terrifying beyond horror and the cover is just...well, a different definition of cover, I'm burning the bootleg tape without any mention of doing it. xD

Soooooooo I may of bought a set of 7 VHS tapes because one of them was a clear bootleg, had impressively, sincerely janky art I didn't want to have go unpreserved & my curiosity was too high on what the tape itself's like after I clean my VHS player. >.> First eBay perchase since the pandemic, haha.

Congrats to France for not falling for far right bullshit. Good luck to the rest of us.

AMERICA, VOTE. AND VOTE BLUE OR ANYONE WHO'S NOT RED.

Project 2025 is a nearly 1000-page step-by-step playbook that would turn America into an authoritarian nightmare and shred our freedoms. Trump can try to distance himself from it but it was put together by more than 20 officials he appointed in his first term. Don't be fooled.

Vote. Protest. Separate the fuck out of church and state. This is how you celebrate the work of America’s founders.

I've voted in the 2024 General Election, for the Green Party! Everybody, if you're eligable, go down to your local polling station and vote before 10pm!! Let's make this count against the ones who hurt us for so long.

get my plushie and/or pins before they're gone for good! hitting 400 units would boost my cut in a way that will help me & my family tremendously! www.makeship.com/products/noe... www.makeship.com/products/twi...

ACK, wanted to sleep early so I could go vote but I'm finding it hard to relax into sleep, fffff. @.@;; Wish me luck, I guess!

...fuck. Well, at least #RobotDreams is still in US theatres right now.

I hope "Inside Out 2" bombs, to wake those execs up to knowing Pixar cannot thrive on rigid formula-chasing. Pixar HAD a great creative future, so frustrated that it didn't last. Wishing and hoping for the best for the people at Pixar their decisions affect.

This is what this November election is about. The right wants blood on the streets. Nothing short of that will satisfy. The ONLY choice is to vote Biden.

Hey, US folk: Please remember to vote for what you believe in, not for the people who're the faces of it. You absolutely still have to vote Blue. Or any party that's not the opposite of Blue. Your rights are on the line. Vote in by-elections after if you want further, deeper changes.

Today's Friday, Fridays are the regular day when new film releases take place in UK cinemas, Cineworld are (maybe to a fault?) the biggest cinema chain in the UK... ...and in the 2nd ad slide on their homepage today, they just went "fuck it" and decided to just dwell on NACHO CHEESE instead. Okay?!
