Life is hell and full of pain. I don't like it.

@The_Great_Null It's definitely misbehaving. Same here so it's not just you.

so, is the site working for anyone? it's only loading sometimes?

This is Apartheid. It's morally disgusting - and comes at the same time as Israel is committing an ongoing genocide. To see the Labour Government defend Israel repeatedly will horrify the British public - it cannot go on like this.

NEWS: Bette Midler just released a remake of Woody Guthrie’s classic protest song “All You Fascists Bound to Lose,” updated to fit the current moment and urge action ahead of the midterms. You have to listen to this.

@PoliticoForYou I remember seeing Underground Transgender Mafia live in Sheffield. Still got the t-shirt.

BREAKING 🚨🚨🚨 Liz Truss suggests “underground transgender mafia” may be responsible for Italian chocolate heist that saw over 12 tonnes of KitKats stolen.

The Kit-Kat Bandits might not be the heroes we deserve but they are the heroes we need in these dark and difficult times.

@KemiBadenoch No Conservative EVER has any moral authority to say what the right thing to do is. EVER. You are morally repugnant pond scum. You have NEVER in your history done anything to help or lift up the common man, woman or child. Sit. Down.

Rather than chairing yet another COBRA meeting tomorrow, the Prime Minister should cut energy bills, get Britain drilling, and axe the tax rises. Here’s my letter to Keir Starmer👇

@WhiteHouse You are the reason it is closed you utter f*cking moron.

“All of those countries that can’t get jet fuel because of the Strait of Hormuz, like the United Kingdom, which refused to get involved in the decapitation of Iran, I have a suggestion for you…” - President Donald J. Trump

@maziehirono And yet he rules like a tyrant, makes decisions based on whims with no consequence, is answerable to no one and is surrounded by sycophants and lackeys. A king in all but name. And a bad one at that.

Donald Trump is not, never will be, and has never been a king. #NoKings

If you need me I'll be hiding in the darkened room with blackout curtains drawn, crying quietly.

STATUS UPDATE: Life is still hell and full of pain.

GW reveal new edition of Warhammer #40k and upstages itself with the amazing Cogfort for Age of Sigmar. This is like the bride being upstaged by a bridesmaid from the wedding next door. Incredible model. warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles…

Please, reach out and help. A little can make a great deal of difference.

Pepsi paid $2 billion for the rights to market the Star Wars prequels. They went all-in on this first film. The toys ended up making more money than the tickets. All of it was built on a poster with no actors, no plot, and not even the movie's full name. On November 10, 1998, an ad agency called New Wave Creative, working with two Lucasfilm employees, Ellen Lee and Jim Ward, put this image into theaters. It just said "Star Wars Episode I" at the bottom. No subtitle. A kid walking in the desert casting Darth Vader's shadow. Star Wars hadn't released a new film since Return of the Jedi in 1983. This one image had to sell the comeback. Pepsi's deal covered everything. Pepsi cans, Frito-Lay chips, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, and KFC. They printed 8 billion cans featuring Star Wars characters. Guinness World Records listed it as the largest brand partnership deal in history. Lucasfilm's own ad budget was just $20 million. When the teaser trailer dropped a few days later, it only played in a handful of U.S. theaters. Fans bought full-price tickets to a 3-hour Brad Pitt movie called Meet Joe Black, watched the 2-minute Star Wars trailer, and walked out before the film started. Some theaters started replaying the trailer after Meet Joe Black ended so people would actually stay in their seats. That trailer got 35 million downloads online, which in 1998 meant waiting an hour on a screeching dial-up modem to watch a pixelated rectangle on your monitor. The Phantom Menace opened May 19, 1999. A workplace consulting firm, Challenger, Gray & Christmas, estimated that 2.2 million Americans skipped work that day, costing employers about $293 million in lost productivity. In one day. The movie made over $1 billion at the box office. The merchandise made roughly $2 billion, nearly double the ticket sales. Lego's Star Wars toy line blew past its own sales forecast. I looked up what happened to the people behind this poster. Ellen Lee went to Pixar. Jim Ward became president of LucasArts (Lucasfilm's video game company), ran for Congress in Arizona, and then became CEO of the Phoenix Symphony. New Wave Creative went on to design the posters for Borat and Shaun of the Dead. And Drew Struzan, who painted the theatrical Star Wars posters (the colorful painted ones you probably picture when you think "Star Wars poster," not this minimalist teaser), died last October at 78 from Alzheimer's. The Star Wars franchise has generated an estimated $46.7 billion in total revenue. Pepsi bet $2 billion on a franchise that announced its comeback with nothing but a boy and a shadow on a wall.

I think he may be onto something..

Exhausted. In pain. Please help. Goodnight.

Life is hell and full of pain. Be kind. Send coffee. Please. Back when my world stops burning. ko-fi.com/greywulf
