The backlash and withdrawal are all part of the advertising campaign and will connect with precisely the consumer they are targeted at, i.e.[presumed] male middle management at tech-adjacent companies

Listen to @bloodwork.show
The most noble category of podcast listener
We’ve got an open slot for you once I find the time to read your book!
People have been asking us about Combat 18 Part 3 (and 4…?) and that is coming very soon (this is me asking Gareth if he’s free any time soon lol)
I'm biased, but @bloodwork.show is one of the best new podcasts I've heard in years, and proof that there's still life in the medium.
I have some thoughts and sentiments I’ll probably share at a later date, but for now I want to echo Tom. The response we’ve received in just six months has been incredible and I am incredibly grateful. Onwards and upwards. G

The famous panel from Junji Ito's "The Enigma of Amigara Fault" with a man climbing into a man shaped hole in a cliff, screaming "it was made for me! This is my hole!"
This podcast and this topic especially align with my niche interests too well.
This is a personal favourite cultural pull. Incredibly strong work from the BWMD here.

this episode was brainstormed between me being compared to, in order: a python, a stoat, gumby, and spider monkeys in the whatsapp group. give it a listen.
Listen to Blood Work, the podcast for people who listen.
In this episode @gregk.co.uk hit me with my favourite type of drop request;
“Tom can we put some classical music here? Idk what, see what you think”
Who the fuck does he think he is? Who is the fucking superpower here?
People cite this quote all the time as evidence of how much every president hates Netanyahu but really it's evidence that the US has a humiliation fetish and learns nothing whatsoever about anything that happens to it
BLOOD WORK / EPISODE 28
IN SO MANY WORDS
We take a foray into the world of euphemisms, turns-of-phrase and the disingenuous world of militarese.
Jeb is a mess
In Germany, the Holocaust is commemorated by portraying Hitler as a Palestinian.
Reviews are in. They say buy my book.
Donald Trump claimed at the White House that “we’ve been called by the other side”, which would “like to make a deal very badly”. He insisted the US would not agree to any deal that would permit Iran to have a nuclear weapon, saying: “We can’t let a country blackmail or extort the world.” News reports indicated US officials were continuing talks with Tehran.
No kidding.
US vice-president JD Vance accused the Iranian government of engaging in an “act of economic terrorism” by blocking traffic through the Hormuz strait.
Huh.
The pure, virtuous, masculine identity of the world-bestriding European is being sapped by the parasitic ideology of Islamo-Bolshevism, which must be cleansed from the body politic root and branch.

A friend observed a while back that Israel's conduct in Gaza makes more sense if you view it as homologous with the inter-ethnic conflicts in the Balkans and attendant massacres and 'burning traditions', which I think people should remember as Israel's defenders openly discuss PR tactics like this.
Of course the BBC had to turn to a rabid, bigoted racist like Tucker Carlson to find a critical perspective on the US and Israel's illegal war against Iran, because anyone on a left would likely have been sympathetic to a proscribed terror organisation, the designation of which cannot be questioned.
[Addressing the literal Antichrist] Sir, with all due respect,
I wrote up my response.
