Springtime for Hitler in Brooks’ The Producers is still an audacious satire about Nazism & narcissistic & insecure little men.

Just perfect

Apart from predicting MAGA, this scene is wonderful because you can see that Cleavon Little is genuinely laughing as Wilder improvises the punchline. Brooks wisely kept it in. youtu.be/hYTQ7__NNDI?...

If Starmer performs as well as NATO secretary general as he did as Prime Minister he'd let Russia take over the entirety of Europe and then somehow make the US nuke itself.

It's breaking my heart that the house isn't being turned into a museum to be a permanent home for all of this. Come on national trust, English heritage, v&a or whoever, keep it all together.

Trump hosts the Great American State Fair and it is great like the Great Depression was great. youtu.be/xLW04BDqbpA

Weird how the right both believe Thatcher's council house sale is the best policy in history and that anyone who benefitted from it is bad and wrong.

I can’t be the only one who thinks it’s INSANE that we are simultaneously hosting the World Cup and bombing one of the nations playing in said World Cup.

Trump was sent to a military correction school after punching his 2nd grade teacher, giving him a black eye.

-From Quarks to Quasars 1/ Fired government scientists just launched a new site to keep climate data public.The site is called Climate.us & it was created by former staffers behind Climate.gov, the NOAA-run website long used by many for trusted climate information."

I don't want to hear another word about how much white European visitors are enjoying ranch dressing while team officials, Africa's top referee, and now one of the world's most celebrated fans are turned away from the World Cup. The USA is an utterly unfit host — it's as simple as that

MAGA has entered its clearance rack era.

‘Say yes and never do it’ Mel Brooks knew how to deal with the studios

Googled the first CGI in the movie and wildly it was 1958 and Hitchcock. OK, it's not CGI really as you understand it now, more just trippy patterns generated by plugging a military computer into an oscilloscope, but still, it's computer geneated imagery and counts.

I still think this is one of the most egregious acts of Treason ever committed….

I’m building a team…

People are missing the point. It is not that the phrase Trump insisted be on new passports confirms that he doesn't know what a passport is. It's that for a year not one person who works for him was willing to tell him so. They will remain cowards when he declares martial law.

This is the new talking point from Reform supporters over on X. In other news, Nigel Farage has yet to hold a single in-person MP surgery in his constituency in the almost two years since he was elected

The real Reflecting Pool vandal

He’s right. These games are not legit if players can’t bring their full team because the host country is an asshole.

OMG IS THIS WHY??? Did the Walliams thing make all the companies decide to pivot away from pretending a celebrity had written a kids book and pretend they've written a cozy crime instead?

"Trump's 13-Year-Old Accuser"

I’m guessing this non story will be run 5 million times harder than Farages Donation ever was. #GreenParty #5MillNige #Reform #Farage #ZackPolanski

There is no such rule, unwritten or otherwise. This is constitutionally and historically illiterate.

ChatGPT26: "Born between 1524 & 1968, William Shatner Shakespeare (pr. Shag-a-Pear) was a writer of plays, poems & shopping lists such as Mac iBeth, Caroline's Anus, and Can You Pick Me Up Some Cheese from Tesco? In 2036 all copies of his First Folio were destroyed to make space for a data center"

You’ve funned your last boy three.

The cooling system was installed by the village AC technician, Thermodynamix 😊

Techno-feudalism…

You’ve talked your last talk. You’ve the’d your last the. You’ve wetted your last wet… er, wet.

You’ve Duruttied your last Column…

He’s right, and that’s bad.

Alfred Hitchcock didn’t built an entire Greenwich Village block on a soundstage, complete with four different lighting setups for different times of day, and water tanks on the roof to simulate a rain storm just so you could tell me… etc… etc…

That were to enlard his fat-already pride, And add more coals to Cancer when he burns

But Swift did satirize the stupidity of using machines to create language in 1726, so maybe it was inevitable

Fuck the reflecting pool. This has not gotten nearly enough coverage or generated the proper outrage. People thrown in prison for 30-50 years for the "crime" ofmaking zines and belonging to a book club!! This is straight-up totalitarian atrocity. Political prisoners thrown in a gulag to rot.

3500 excess deaths in UK in 1976 heatwave Many places ran out of water It wasn't embraced it was fucking miserable And this fantastist is an idiot

The news saying we shouldn’t get aircon in the uk due to environmental concerns have been very quiet about ai data centres.

This is a far right argument which blames racial hatred on immigrants instead of racists.

Beautiful stuff

If only.
