Ok. But what if you're not an investor, you're just someone pre-paying for something?

There is a certain, shall we say, continuity in the look of the Doctor, with regards to costume, skin tone and genitals.

I think we've moved past the point where non-ironic use of SJW is a social marker indicating advanced deliquescence of the brain and sexual organs and entered the realm of wonder and myth where SJW can be hurled at anything and anyone because nobody really uses it non-ironically anymore even if they don't understand…

Yount did a webcomic with his brother, Rob and Elliot, which is where I know him from. I don't think you'll waste your time if you read the archive.

Like most blog posts that I read, it provoked the thought that I need another drink.

I quite like the idea of dealing with a beloved actor's death by watching the very, very worst things they have done. It would help provide closure. That's why I'm going to watch Jaws: The Revenge when Michael Caine dies, Dungeon & Dragons for Jeremy Irons, and for Ian McKellan I will force myself to sit through the Ho…

America! What a country! In America, you eat the body and drink the blood of your god. In Narnia, god eats you!

I quite like Perusing these pun threads.

He makes the best fuckin' fil… no, I can't do this. It's not right.

I actually have submitted a treatment for this idea. Lisa finds an online 'club' where it's possible to 'liftballot' other people for their comments, starts posting there and becomes addicted to the sweet sweet rush of positive feedback, something she is not used to in the real world. But gradually she realises that…

If I had to sum up the last, what, 12 years of The Simpsons in one sentence it would be hard to better '[It] just sort of exists.'

Really? Because if you look at the changes at state and local level in the last two decades it looks more like they realised that doing things in the bright sunshine of a presidential campaign was a no-no, but sneaking around in the back alley of lower-turnout elections would do the job.

If only they would feature non-iconic Communists, like Julius Martov, C.E Ruthenberg or Jim-Bob Castro.

I pay the Homer tax. Let Paul Krugman pay the Paul Krugman tax.

Well no, it's not meant as snark. Snark is what shallow, cow-brained, bumfluff-faced youths do when they can't commit to having an opinion. This is sarcasm.

Yes, just in the same way that the increased popularity of ebooks means nobody receives physical books anymore, and the increased popularity of bitcoin means nobody sticks fiat currency in a Christmas card when they can't think of anything better.

I have to admit I did like the cover of 'Nothing Compares 2 Ukraine'.

Regarding Adele, I think it's that there always has to be at least one genuinely talented diva - in the good sense of the word, possibly also the bad sense - whose album you can give to virtually anyone as a present without them being offended (unless they told you they already had it, and even then they'll just take…

Oh the pain. The pain of it all.

Spaced Invaders is my go-to, and as a bonus it doesn't involve explaining what 'virginity' means to pre-schoolers.
