More where. It’s an incredibly popular chain of bakers in Scotland and Northern England that’s notable for its very cheap and reliable lunches and coffee. Most Scottish towns will have multiple on the same street.
There was one in Infinity War as well but it was edited into a generic coffee shop.
Also finding out "Do unto others as you would have done to you" only goes so far when the people involved willingly put themselves through heinous things in the name of productivity.
Hobbs and Shaw is the only Fast and the Furious movie that’s got a Greggs in it. So that’s worth a few points.
Absolutely perfect

I remember seeing a video which complained that Discovery's biggest flaw was "The focus being on the emotions of pyjama wearing weirdos instead of the war we came to see".
You already failed at the basic buy-in.
Been getting clients supplying their own AI generated logos and they're usually incredibly gaudy and unusable

Just started watching it this week and been having a great time.
Knew that was AI the moment I saw the pissfilter and the font.
I'm a graphic designer and work has been flooded with these, usually with clients asking to fix them

Bunch of old Metal Gear animation clips #mgs
And now studios are realising that combo also makes him a chepnwriter.
I don’t get video game TV shows that want to just recreate the existing story. At least Fallout is a new story in the universe.
Judge Dredd pointing his baton at you. In the background, a trash heap comes to horrifying life.
Stand clear, citizen. This garbage dump is hostile.
Going to be controversial here…
...every Space Marine I have is in Phobos.
This might be a complication.
