Why couldn't the first trillionaire be a progressive, socially aware philanthropist.
No ... We get this instead.

[DiscussingFilm @DiscussingFilm]

Elon Musk has become the first trillionaire in history.

@ATRightMovies Not a film, but Iggy Pop's appearance in Deep Space Nine was good. Particularly as the episode itself, The Magnificent Ferengi is fantastic.

[Gareth Jackson @GarethAJackson]

@shinobi602 I have really fond memories of the original trilogy. But for me it was all about the campaign.
When I found out the multiplayer was basically shotgun roly-poly, It wasnt for me.
Looking forward to the new campaign, but that's it.

@LarryBundyJr This is exactly why given the choice of a AAA game at launch, I'll buy a physical copy. I can normally find it cheaper by shopping around and it has some resale value (albeit very little).
Until digital is markedly cheaper than physical, physical will be my go to.

[Gareth Jackson @GarethAJackson]

@GingerWildheart Wow, that's a belter of a line up! Shame my anxiety and the cost rules out big festivals.
First on, but definitely most memorable! 🤘🏻

@90sWWE Al Snow, D'Lo or if we are branching into WCW roster, Kanyon.

@LWaunfawr One of ours hates the chaos and will take herself off to another room. The other is a chaos gremlin and will do exactly the same as your cat!

@PulpLibrarian I remember when you could text a number to buy ringtones for the Nokia's.
I did it once and bought the Red Dwarf theme for my phone

I haven't played D2 in years.
I remember playing the pre-release demo for Destiny and thinking how great it was. Had some really fun times playing the original with friends. They drifted away come D2 and playing solo wasn't quite the same. Still, fun times.

For almost twelve years, we have had the joy and honor to explore the Destiny universe with you all. Through all the ups and downs, surprises and triumphs, building Destiny alongside our players has been a monumental privilege. While our love for Destiny 2 has not changed, it has become clear that after The Final Shape, we have reached the time for our shared worlds, and Destiny, to live beyond Destiny 2.

As our focus turns towards a new beginning for Bungie, we will begin work incubating our next games. To that end, on June 9, 2026, we will release the final live-service content update for Destiny 2 to begin that new journey as a studio.

Though active development may be concluding, we will ensure that Destiny 2 remains playable, just as the original Destiny is today. Many changes in this final update will aim to ensure that Destiny 2 is a welcoming place for players to return to.

We’re proud of Destiny 2, the places it took us, and the legacy it has created. Because of you all, our universe is vast, built on years of shared stories, adventures, and victories. From the Cosmodrome to the Pale Heart to the Lawless Frontier, we have forged life-long memories and friendships with you all.

We are incredibly grateful to everyone who made that journey with us.

From the deepest part of our hearts, thank you, and we'll see you in the stars.

@bushontheradio Some absolute belters in 80s cartoons. Thundercats, Jayce & The Wheeled Warriors, Dungeons & Dragons, Ulysses 31.
But I think Knightmare wins it for me!

Ok @TheAA_UK let me get this straight.
I can have both breakdown cover and motor insurance with you, but I can't use the same email address as my login for both.
And no one thought to tell me this until I went into live chat today and queried why I can't access my policy?

[Gareth Jackson @GarethAJackson]

@LWaunfawr I would have preferred to vote Green's, but seems the only party in Wales to vote for and keep the jackbooted Reform lunatics out is Plaid. I'll take it as a good second choice 😀

[Gareth Jackson @GarethAJackson]

@TheAA_UK Hello I'm still having issues logging on to my account to access my car insurance policy.
I have had this for over a month on multiple devices.
If you cannot fix this, I will be requesting my policy cancelled on the grounds I cannot access any of my documents.

[Gareth Jackson @GarethAJackson]

If there isn't an achievement/trophy in @007GameIOI for making someone sick with a Q gadget and that trophy called 'Licence to ill', I'll be sending a strongly worded email to @IOInteractive

@16bitnostalgia 1998 was mind-blowing for stealth console gamers. This and Tenchu. I sunk so much time into these!
It's just a shame we never got the Thief games on console.

[Gareth Jackson @GarethAJackson]

@Tim_Burgess I saw Muse supporting 3 Colours Red in 1999 at Cardiff Uni.

[Gareth Jackson @GarethAJackson]

@tobytarrant @RadioX Thanks for playing Rage Against The Machine Toby. Not had a great morning so far, but that's definitely helped! 🤘🏻

@JasonBradbury I didn't have a Spectrum, I was a C64 guy.
My mate had a Spectrum and I remember sitting on his living room floor playing two player Double Dragon.

I hardly ever spend time these days getting sucked into reading the nonsense on Twitter/X, but this surreal exchange between ex-footballer Matt Le Tissier and Grok about aircraft contrails encapsulates perfectly why most normal people have better things to do with their time.
