My interest in seeing this movie just shot WAY up.

"In the place of problem-solving technology, companies have jumped on successive bandwagons like NFTs, the metaverse, and large language models. What these all have in common is that they are not built to really solve a market problem. They are built to make VCs and companies rich"
A genuinely more interesting watch, I guarantee you. Sign me up.
Terrestrial TV's gradual demise is certainly sad, but I wish it didn't result in celebs migrating to YouTube with increasingly duff formats. Because no, I don't want to watch Ant & Dec rank UK sweets (and I'm sure they wouldn't either, tbh).
One million already? Yes, yes. Please give Pragmata all the sales.

This might not translate globally, but for UK people, this is like seeing the Beatles reform
Every AI commercial is like "Hey AI, what goes good on a sandwich?" and then the AI is like "Have you considered... cheese?" And then the narrator is like: THE FUTURE IS HERE.

Well, god damn you BAFTA. We go again.
I do not want to create an account or open a subscription I just want to buy a thing and never hear from you again why is this so hard.
Congrats, Rich. Was so happy to see the Rebellion team's awesome work recognised. 👏
If they did, a salary increase is in order I'd say.
Nothing in 2026 could surprise me anymore. Not even Lana Del Rey being papped purchasing a PS5 just so she can play 007: First Light. (Good on her, though).
My heart breaks, too. Curse you CEX!
Man goes to the doctor. Says he feels sad and depressed. The doctor says "This will cheer you up, I have just committed a crime that is so brilliant it can't even be solved by the Great Detective Columbo." The man says "Just one more thing..."
You know it's been a good day at the office when all these games are involved.

New Street Fighter trailer is fricking awesome. That is all.
Excited for Saros at the end of this month? So am I. Here's Jane Perry teasing what you can expect from her character when the game releases:
On the one hand Daredevil: Born Again is just a silly little 'superhero' show. On the other, however, it's also Vincent D'Onofrio likely giving the performance of his career. Episode 5 blew me away.
I have immense respect for those who cover video game news. Not just the big splashy in-depth investigations, but the day-to-day announcements, details, & bit-pieces that come without end. News writers don't always get the attention that opinion writers get, but it is a needed and crucial component.
Spoilers for today's Daredevil, but to show we were doing a flashback to like 2014-ish, they made Kingpin say very menacingly "have you ever heard... of bitcoin?"

Sabrina Carpenter: "Have you ever tried this one?"

Did you know the new Lara Croft is JUST as excited as you are?
Here's a snippet of my conversation with @alixwiltonregan.bsky.social who is always a delight.
At a time when the world seems incredibly bleak, do yourself a favour and submit to Tomadochi Life: Living the Dream's unbridled madness.
As someone who (begrudgingly) turned the camera on themselves on insta this week for promo, I wanted to speak with artists - musicians, comics, writers, actors, gamers - to see how they are feeling about the pressures of making short form video content. www.theguardian.com/culture/2026...
Let's be honest, there will only ever be one true Aragorn. But Jamie Dornan? An actually inspired recasting choice.
The scent of beef brisket slowly boiling away in the slow cooker has made me wayyyy more productive today tbh. 10/10 would recommend.
My favorite part of Pragmata is when Diana hits a data drive like she's looking for the last bit of nicotine out of a Juul pod
In a world full of Crimson Deserts, be a Pragmata.
