#FilmSky 📽️ rewatching #Screamers not an award winner, but the 2nd most accurate film translation of a Philip K. Dick story after A Scanner Darkly, imo.

One thing is clear. Keir Starmer is singularly incapable of standing up to Donald Trump.

Keir Starmer abandoned net zero to court Reform voters. He failed

Y’all, please nominate—it’s so very helpful to everyone: the authors, the jury, the foundation, and to readers

Okay but now I'm asking for it

It took just one phone call from Donald Trump for Starmer to jump into yet another Middle East illegal war, failing to learn the lessons of the tragedies of Iraq, Libya and Syria.

Trump wants to build autonomous killer robots - and OpenAI just volunteered. This is a defining moment: either AI is used to help us, or it’s used to kill us. Stop Trump's killer robots: action.eko.org/a/stop-trump...

Screw You, Sam Altman, you wretched villain

Now this is the news I *should* have woken to this morning!

I think about this Tony Benn speech much more than I used to

Once again.

I'm gonna read a book and escape into Robert Anton Wilson's Historical Illuminatus trilogy.

I really do struggle to encompass this historical moment.

How long before Charles Foster Kane is a playable character in Mortal Kombat?

Newsnight can put Zack Polanski in a Russian hat. They can portray him as Voldermort. James O'Brien can accuse him of "breaking Britain". It's not going to work this time, lads. People have seen too much. The electorate just knows more. Watch the attacks ramp up and recognise their toothlessness.

Gorton and Denton was 127th on the list of Green Party target seats. To win by such a margin there suggests there is much bigger potential for Green gains in May's local elections than most people expect bylinetimes.com/2026/02/27/h...

“I said we were here to replace Labour and this is what replacing looks like.” Zack Polanski talking to volunteers after our stunning victory in the Gorton and Denton by-election. join.greenparty.org.uk

Absolutely huge: this byelection is about to be WON by the Greens. >Starmer will now go, after May elections, conceivably even before. He pinned everything on holding this ‘safe’ seat; he’s heading for 3rd. >Reform momentum halted. >Greens about to leap into 1st place nationally! For first time EVER
