| Item | Type | Year | Rating | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cunk on Life Charlie Brooker | Movie | 2025 | ★★★★★ | Faux-shoshin mockumentary. Perfectly executed delivery on asking life's greatest questions. |
| Calvin and Hobbes Bill Watterson | Book | 1995 | ★★★★★ | Perhaps the most formative work in my reading life — Watterson distilling the universe into a teacup. |
| Thank Goodness You're Here! James Carbutt · Will Todd | Video Game | 2024 | ★★★★★ | An interactive movie of a game — a two-hour visual delight by Coal Supper, voiced by Matt Berry. |
| Romeo is a Dead Man Goichi Suda | Video Game | 2025 | ★★★★★ | Another fever dream from Suda51 and Grasshopper — combat that suits simple sensibilities, with ultraviolent revenge noir as the bonus. |
| 1000xRESIST Remy Siu | Video Game | 2024 | ★★★★★ | A visual novel sorta video game. Canada-built, Australia-published, and unlike anything else. A beautiful, tragic tale well-told that you cannot put down. |
