I'm watching The Dark Knight, I can't believe Bruce Wayne is Batman.

Went on works Christmas do last night, made the mistake of staying out til 5am mate. Should not have done it. Feel like I'll never have any energy again.

Morning all... my youngest is doing 12 dips of Christmas to raise money for Breast Cancer research, her friend's mum has just been diagnosed - if you are able, please donate using the link below; fundraising.breastcancerireland.com/fundraiser/I...

NEW There's no overstating how significant the Nathan Gill case is. On Friday, the close associate of Nigel Farage was jailed for over 10 years for taking bribes ultimately from a friend of Putin. It's a complex, detail-heavy story that raises questions about Farage’s claim Gill was ‘one bad apple’🧵

This story is all Nigel Farage should be asked about by journalists for months

NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN was released 18 years ago today. One of the most successful movies of the Coen brothers, and acclaimed as one of the great book-to-screen adaptations of the 21st century, missing the story of how it came to be is like losing a Chigurh coin toss… 1/38

Agent Lairmore is done with his testimony. Prosecution asked further about the condiments and he said there was mustard on his uniform and an onion hanging on his radio antenna. Don’t think defense was going for a pun when she called him a “seasoned officer,” but you never know…

CARTOON OF THE DAY (From @mluckovichajc)

Amazon just announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year. UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year. Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP. Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP. The people who need help are not the problem. It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

DUNE: PART ONE was released 4 years ago today. Acclaimed as one of the great science fiction films of the 21st century, and among the best of director Denis Villeneuve, the making of story is as epic as you would expect… 1/62

That journalist Nick Mashiter must have had a torrid time at school.

I’ve seen just one counter-protester at No Kings San Diego. He’s got a Trump 2024 flag and this guy has been following him around for probably an hour playing Benny Hill and circus music.

Not taking anything from that other than positives. Exposed our obvious deficiencies as a squad, but also showed the potential for future successes, especially in the first half. City will be City, but we will be a different proposition with a decent CF and a RB

Oh, the grand old duke of york He ██████████████████ He ██████████████████ And he ██████████████████

Evertonian, Arteja Folla needs your help. Trafficked into modern slavery from Albania by a criminal gang, she has made a life in Liverpool and now she faces deportation back into the hands of the people who trafficked her. Ari is a lovely, thoughtful and compassionate woman, who I know personally.

PULP FICTION was released 31 years ago this week. A cultural phenomenon on its release, and the movie that catapulted the career of writer-director Quentin Tarantino, the tale of how it came to be is the Big Kahuna Burger of making-of stories…. 1/67

in light of the kimmel news, just a reminder that a few days ago a prominent fox news host literally called for killing homeless people. right afterward, someone shot up a couple homeless encampments. that fox news host still has his job.

Rylan.

Amorim Gutted as Grimsby land 3rd Round Plaice - headlines write themselves.

If you want to see Michelle Mone kicked out of the House of Lords and arrested until she pays the £232,000,000 she owes give this a RT. If you want Rishi Sunak's involvement in the £14,900,000,000 PPE Fraud he covered up investigated, LIKE.

Absolutely dystopian juxtaposition from the Guardian front page. Difficult to understand how anyone of decency and conscience can defend this government at this point. Just sheer moral degeneracy to arm a state that does this and arrest people for objecting. Wtf are we doing as a country?

You know what? I'm still annoyed by 'The Brutalist'.

Oh shit I didn’t realize they’re so people don’t know who they are, I thought they were for one of the other reasons people wear masks

I see the echo has gone to pay for no ads or accept *ALL* cookies. They can fuck off.

Beautiful.

i think we've bred our politicians to mostly be cowards because they think their job is following polls instead of shaping them, like there has been a profound regression in political leadership over the past few generations, which coincides with the total collapse of Congress as a governing body

It’s her for me

Die Hard With A Vengence is a great couple of hours.

Someone just mentioned Homer Simpson and it reminded me of when he came back from the video store trying to rent Waiting to Exhale, but they were out and put him on the waiting to exhale waiting list, but told him not to hold his breath, and I just wanted to share that with you.

The Surfer is an A+ B-movie, tense, unnerving and incredibly good to look at. Give it a go if you like things a little off kilter.

I'm watching Iron Man 2 because, quite honestly, Sam Rockwell as Justin Hammer is fantastic. The fact he went to the bother of covering himself in fake tan, palms and all, is way above anything required of him.

My friends, it's not just happening in a galaxy far, far away.

Anybody see that Civil War?

We've just figured out when bin day is.

Guess what book they're talking about.

Good to know Ryanair are absolute twats no matter where you fly from.

The Running Man, Starship Troopers, V for Vendetta, Fahrenheit 451, Idiocracy... not potential dystopian futures, but weird examples of prediction.

If you'd have told 25 year old me that we'd have a 4x bankrupt, former reality tv star as President calling in the military on his own populace, I probably would have believed you.

How has Costa Coffee become so big? Genuinely amongst the worst coffee I've ever had and it doesn't seem to matter which country I'm in, it's just shite.

Real divorce energy.

Just made myself some scrambled eggs on sourdough toast, and I'm not joking - It was the best I've had. Unbelievable, really. 50 years old. Just proves you never know what's in store for you.

If only Channel 4 had made 'Dover 24/7, Britain's busiest port' a few years ago, Dominic Raab might not have looked such a c#nt.

Great film, great podcast... open.spotify.com/episode/2e58...

This raises an important question: does increasing prices actually lower prices? We ask the five dumbest guys you've ever met for their thoughts

Hey, Amurica, France called - they want their statue back.
