Apparently they are making a TV series based on the (excellent) Comic book "The Boys".  In the comic book, the main character Wee Hughie is 100% based on Simon Pegg.
Bloody hell that makes like the goddamn sixth title I've encountered called "the boys". There's other words in the english language y'buggers!

You might have missed this one, since it was an Australian drama film:

Oh hey, I actually watched the start of that a while back for some reason!
It was pretty disturbing/bleak. Knowing that it's based on a true story is a tad spoilery, haha. Not sure why I stopped watching it, maybe how depressing it was...

There are people that believe our society will one day ascend to the stars and resemble the logical, refined, and egalitarian ideal of Star Trek through rationality and scientific advancement.

I am no longer one of those people.

This is truly excellent scientific research and I applaud the academic behind it. Perhaps I should do post grad work in fluid dynamics instead of bettering my country with work in ecology and fisheries...

Captain, we think we may have found a solution to the asteroid impact emergency on Earth in some ancient 21st century scientific papers. Yes. Yes that one, the one I just sent to your pad. Mmhm. Yes, they called them "tiddies". No, with a D. Yes, two, actually. No, that wasn't a pun.

Mmhm.

Ok.

Well guys, Captain says nothing is worth saving anymore, and to just let it all burn. Take the day off, I guess!

Honestly, this is my favorite thing about humans: we're crazy enough to be bored of a universe where diamonds fall sideways in hypersonic rain through methane skies lit by nebulae of raspberry rum and Saturn's got giant hexagons on its poles and gravity slows down time and a million other things utterly alien to everything we've ever seen rather than walk around permanently shocked at everything, and yet we're smart enough to build global communications networks to tell each other how bored we are at the speed of light. We've invented a system of mathematics that can do everything from telling you how many apples you're holding to describing what happens when the universe recurs and yet we skip out on learning it to go smoke behind the bleachers and laugh about it later and we're okay with that. We can dance while slowly rusting to death.

If we ever do build the Enterprise, we'll cover the hull in ads for drugs and VR porn, name the shuttlecraft Shuttley McShuttleface, and ferment six kinds of illicit booze in Engineering in between building a tiny jetpack for the ship's cat and jailbreaking the computer. And we'll still save the world with it. That's just how humanity rolls, man.

I'm worried about that kitty jetpack. Cats have a tendency to set themselves on fire whenever open flame is available. Source: Multiple house cats catching their tails on fire on lit candles.

It's pneumatic or you just cant have it. We're not holding a funeral for the kitty this early in the expedition.

If we can set our aerodynamic tiddies aside for a moment, I've got a gaming WTF. RDR2 again. The only other thing I've been playing lately is Hellsign, and that whole damn game is a WTF...

So I picked up a bounty for the leader of the Lemoyne raiders, dead or alive. I wanted to bring him in alive, because apparently you can get to watch him get publicly charged and then hanged, and that seemed like my kind of cozy weekday night entertainment.

Heading out to his last reported location, I discover that it's a rundown civil war fort. Well, they're nothing if not loyal to their theme...

So I tried to head in all sneaky-like, but the moment you set foot inside the fort, Arthur yells out about having a warrant for the dude's arrest, and everyone mobilizes for battlestations.

I immediately duck into cover around the barracks, and I can tell that although they know I'm here, they don't know *exactly* where I am... So they're just firing random shots to intimidate me. I try to use this to my advantage and hunker down, trying to work out my battle plan for doing this as cleanly as possible.

I notice that a couple red dots are running around the perimeter of the wall, as a couple raiders popped out to try and flank my position, whatever position that might be... But then I hear an "Oh God, no!" and one of the dots turns into a corpse. I'm a little uncertain what just happened, but I think the doofus managed to hurl himself over the side of the parapet in his excitement.

Shortly thereafter, a couple more people turn up dead. I'm still sitting behind a shack wondering what the hell is going on, when suddenly I'm treated to a short cutscene and a change of objective to "Pick up [raider leader]'s body".

Whuh-huh? Looks like he got shot. By one of his own men. In a firefight I wasn't even fucking involved in. Right after he shouted encouragement at his troops to not let me get him.


I reloaded a save from outside the fort. Then I went in guns blazing in order to save his life from his own idiot soldiers.

Never did get to see that hanging though... I ended up being fairly busy that night.

I found out about the Library of Babel.

So like, look, this is rad and all, but isn't this just a random text generator and then if it happens to have made something legible you post about it?

I mean, sort of, but I find the implications of its content mindboggling. I mean, look at the contents of this page here.
