Stop what you are doing and look at this lovely story. A photography student in the 80s took pictures of punks and mods on the street in Preston. He’s now tracked them down and photographed them again. The pictures and stories are really ❤️ www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The video game is going to be WILD.

Does anyone have access to a better copy of the 1976 BBC drama The Witches Of Pendle than this shonky timecoded one? youtu.be/FNi730q3Di0?...

An amazing image from Twin Peaks, Dune, and Fallout star Kyle MacLachlan's memoir "Fictional Selves" that just shows how awesome Patrick Stuart is.

Call me old fashioned but cheesecake should be made in a kitchen, not a factory.

Looking for game devs who have been directly inspired by anything BioWare for my next video. I suspect the public likely doesn’t quite realize the extent of their influence on the industry, so I’d really like to highlight that. If you are one such game devs, pls reply to this post!

Sorry, gymposting: after several years of slowly getting back to where I was pre-lockdown, I finally beat my old 1-rep-max bench press pb with a 92.5kg (203lbs) lift. For an auld fella in his mid-50s, I'm very happy with that. Now to celebrate as the pros do: with Lidl own-brand chicken nuggets.

I know this isn't an original observation, but it is absolutely WILD to me that in the last five years tech adverts have gone from aspirational futuristic cool to just outright saying "Oh my god, you're such a fucking loser, just get the computer to do everything you useless shit".

You cannot convince me that “Andy Twelves” isn’t a Toast of London character name.
