Pompeii out of time with tom hiddleston, thu 23 jul 8 pm, National Geographic and Disney+

Tom is in the middle of a throng of panicking ancient pompeiians blurring past him with Mount Vesuvius erupting in the background. Tom is wearing a dark modern day tshirt. His hair is slicked back. He looks so sad.

A heave ho from Mario 64. It's a clockwork blobby thing with a clock key, a goofy face, and a flat platform attached to its arms that it uses to fling Mario into the air

Netflix thumbnail for "unhinged." first person perspective of a woman's tattooed hands reaching for a phone, which illuminates a dark room and shows a generic Murder Man wearing a bloody jumpsuit and a gas mask oh my god it's so boring also there's a storm outside

Slippy from Star Fox 64 saying "It's too hot! I can't take it anymore!

Peppy Hare's dossier from the new Star Fox. Peppy is depicted as an old veteran. He is 41.

A "clown cardigan" by steady hands apparel. It actually more esembles jester clothing. It's a red striped cropped sweater with a big collar(?) with white pom poms

wow, this is hard to describe. It's child Link from Ocarina of Time for the N64 (Japanese version), swimming in the pond where Jabu-Jabu resides. His swimming style is like, swimming with one side of his body. Like, he's sorta leaning onto his side in the water, doing a sideways stroke leading with his left arm and his right arm sorta just paddles, and he is kicking behind him. Nobody swims like this.

"These fucking dudes" in a "Saved by the Bell" style. Very late 80s/early 90s. Blues and purples and plain geometric shapes

the subject line from an email from itch.io "gshowitt released a new chivalrous romance: A Court of Sparks and Ashes"

A cover for a TTRPG that doesn't exist yet but will called "It Comes This Way, a two-player game about facing evil together by Benjamin Gray" There is a black and white carousel in a field, stylized to look like a wood block print or stamp. It is visually similar to another game I made called "It Takes This Long"

It's an illustration of meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee I have "silver" hair with a little swoosh on one side, a short beard, a sexy smirk and opaque glasses

An episode title card from Star Trek TNG with the Enterprise against a starfield and "these fucking dudes" in blue text

Uncle Jimmy (?) from The Bear, played by Oliver Platt, saying "Actually, I'm kinda into it" unironically

An ad for MemoryCore that shows the box (which vaguely resembles a PS1) and the six modules (that resemble PS1 game cases) and a low-poly character in a dark poncho and pants holding a shotgun that resembles a character from Wild Arms, I'd say. There's also blue dice and a "follow on Backerkit" label

He did compliment one scene involving Idle in which his confused guard character is tasked with watching a prince played by Terry jones. " At these screenings, I point out to the audience that there are no editing cuts in that scene, there's just one take," Cleese explained. "And it's so much better as a result. Comedy is not about editing. Comedy is about people being funny in front of the camera."

Ad for Uncommon Goods. Picture is a dark speckled bowl with a few popcorn kernels in it and a hole at the bottom filled with unpopped kernels. There is also a grate that goes over the hole. "The popcorn bowl that sifts out all the kernels for you."

🍿✨ "If you make your own seasoned popcorn, you know that it's not just about the unpopped kernels; you also end up with a fair amount of seasoning/salt at the bottom of the bowl that then gets your fingers dusty and your last bits of popcorn overseasoned. This bowl completely solves both problems... and it is also absolutely beautiful." - Stella, Washington, DC."

Me: Can't wait to see how Angel Studios spins this as pro capitalism

Animalfarmthemovie: This adaptation of Animal Farm is true to the anti-communist and anti-cronyist toots of the book. See for yourself when Animal Farm hits theaters on May 1st!

The scene from Back to the Future where past Doc Brown says "Ronald Reagan? The actor?!" Incredulously. Except now, the first frame says "Jenny?" and the second frame says "From the block?!"

See, this is funny because it's ridiculous that Ronald Reagan became president because he was only known as a mediocre actor before that. And Jenny from the Block is a J-Lo song about how she had humble beginnings before becoming famous and still feels like she's that person.

A snowy rural landscape. The snow is a couple of inches thick.

Mario and his girlfriend Daniella from the live action Super Mario Bros. movie. They're at an Italian restaurant. Daniella is a pretty white woman with curly black hair wearing a low cut black dress. Mario is played by Bob Hoskins; he has a moustache and is slightly balding and is wearing a brown jacket and a dark shirt with a popped collar. Both are wearing non descript necklaces.

Rouge the bat and Knuckles the Echidna standing next to each other on top of a skyscraper during day. Knuckles has his arms crossed and eyes closed and is saying "One day they love us because we're unique. The next day we're in jail because we're different."

Jack Donaghy from 30 Rock saying "Off-putting." Tracy Jordan is standing to his left.

I'm so sorry but it would take me so long to describe this entire video. Sometimes I'm at my desk talking, sometimes there's cover art of the game, sometimes I've filmed myself doing other things

There's a lot of silouettes of people doin' it, and it looks like camouflage and also makes the outline of a futuristic gun in the middle. It's very clever.

a cropped screenshot of three side-by-side kickstarter ttrpg projects. Briar Bay: A Mork Borg Zine, Rordon Gamsay's Extraordinary Cookbook, and Axolotl with a Gun: An Arcade-Style Roleplaying Game. The thumbnails for each of these projects have so many words, some of them would take a long time for me to transcribe, sorry

Michael Scott and Dwight Schrute from the Office as skins in Fortnite. This is real.

A hot dog cart in downtown Huntsville, al on a sunny day. The cart has a sign that says "Wiener von Braun's". The cart is red and beige. There is a chalk sign with specials. A white man in an orange apron with sunglasses and a backwards ball cap is setting up a table with condiments, etc.

A photo by the Associated Press of a billboard on a highway. It says ICE PREVENTION OPERATIONS AHEAD. It's quite cold in many parts of the US right now.

A scene from the black and white noir film Double Indemnity. Walter, a tall man in a light suit and hat, is lighting a match by holding it and striking it on the thumb of the same hand in a single, fluid motion. He hands the lit match to Keyes, his colleague, who wears a vest and has a long cigar in his mouth. The text "I love you!" appears in a cute font (because it's a line from the movie and these guys do actually love each other)

Reuters: ‘He was sipping a diet, Coke. He had a box of his magic markers embossed with his name on it. He was in a good mood.’ Listen to Reuters correspondent Steve Holland on his sit-down interview with U.S. President Donald Trump in the Oval Office

Photo is Trump in the oval office. The back of a balding white man's head is visible on the left side, probably in conversation with Trump. None of the things mentioned are visible in the photo.

Coen Brothers-style dark comedy about the disastrous consequences of incompetent people doing greedy, hedonistic things: Put this game away and play Fiasco by Jason Morningstar

The generic male RPG knight character used in every mobile game ad. White guy, generic armor, big sword, big head with a smirk and big, determined blue eyes black pointy hair

Professor Henry Higgins from My Fair Lady, sitting on a bench during the "I've grown accustomed to her face" musical number. The lyrics are at the bottom, but "her face" has been crudely crossed out in red and replaced with "my ass" so that it reads "I've grown accustomed to my ass"

Syril and Dedra from Andor, the television show. Dedra is dressed in an imperial officer's cap and a stylish trenchcoat. Syirl is wearing a normal-ass raincoat and a weird Star Wars suit and tie, but the tie sorta comes out of the upper middle of his shirt. It's weird. They're standing and talking on an outdoor city path with other people walking around.

LAvender Earl Grey // Tea Shirt
$24.50 USD (marked down from $35)
A pretty low price for what seems to be high-end goods.

hoo boy, how do I describe eggbeater jesus? It's a mural on the front of a church. The mural has several arches in front of it with thin columns. The center of the mural is a colorful Jesus with a crown floating above his head. The head is normal, but his body is ethereal and whispy, and is partially made of a cross-like star with the symbols for Alpha and Omega in the middle. The whispy effects on the body extend to the lower part of the cross and convey motion, which accidentally makes it look like Jesus's body is made of a whisk or eggbeater. A colorful galaxy is behind Jesus. His arms are oustretched to either side.

A villain from Destiny 2: Renegades, who is wearing red and has a red lightsaber like weapon. He is wearing a mask and hood that looks a lot like Kylo Ren but is not quite Kylo Ren

Three player characters with costumes that kindof but not quite resemble a Tie Pilot (I think), a stormtrooper, and an imperial guard. There's a ship behind them that mostly looks like a tie advanced, but not quite.

A reddit post showing a photo of a TV screen with the Super Mario Bros. For the NES. It's a subterranean level, made of blue brick and black background
Mario is on top of the level, like he's going to warp zone.

The post says "I’ve never seen someone do this before. Did I find a new glitch?"

"This is a weird glitch I found on 4-2, I’ve never seen anybody do this before."

screenshot of a wikipedia entry: German chocolate cake, originally German's chocolate cake, is a layered chocolate cake filled and topped with a coconut-pecan frosting. Originating in the United States, it was named after English-American chocolate maker Samuel German, who developed a formulation of dark baking chocolate that came to be used in the cake recipe. Sweet

A mass of greenery, red lights, ornaments, and a single lit vine that looks oddly organic and gruesomely Resident Evil like. It's attached to a light pole in a shopping center.
