Watching Harlan Coben dramas on Netflix and wondering if James Nesbitt and Richard Armitage draw straws each series to see who is the cop and who is the suspect.

This is the most eloquent and understandable explanation I've heard of how right-wing Christian Nationalists are VERY different to most Christians, why many Christians are actually democrats, and why the separation of church and state benefits us all. www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiTJ...

Like TCGs? Go read Joe's things!

Yes Reform. It's absolutely fine that utility and grocery bills have skyrocketed in recent years but most of us haven't had a pay rise in that time. We can all make up that huge gap. We are just exaggerating. Or maybe you think we can't do maths so we will take your word for it?

Since I was sadly proven correct in assuming Starmer wouldn't protect LGBTQ+ or disabled people, and in fact he has actively harmed us, I'm So happy to see a party proudly in line with my own views.

If only half of a six-piece band make a comeback, can they even claim to be the same band? How do royalties work? I assume it depends if they write or sing. I fear I may go down a rabbithole because even though I don't care about the band, I have legal questions. Thanks Neurodiverse brain!

Given that Green Day and Bad Bunny are born and bred Us Citizens presumably the term "All-American" is short for "All Americans Who Agree With Trumps Agenda"? Is the slogan MAGA or GTFO?

I've always loved Point Break. Yet, somehow it is now improved by knowing how much went into getting it made. Can't decide if my favourite thing is watching for the close cuts because Keanu Reeves couldn't throw a football, or trying to spot how many skydives Patrick Swayze did.

Apparently it's the Queen and not the secret love child of Mrs Doubtfire and Wallace from Wallace and Gromit. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Starmer's apology means nothing. He's literally admitted that he knew Mandelson had links to Epstein, he just "didn't know how deep." Why does it matter how deep? Surely Zero links to known sex offenders is a bar we can maintain for vetting politicians? Or would that mean we have none left?

New fuck/marry/kill list just dropped

Does anyone know if Chappell Roan's nipples are up for a Best Supporting Act award after the Grammy's? Surely they are a front-runner?

How many more people who have been accused of abuse have to appear in these files before more people start actually listening to those who have been trying to speak out about the abuse for years? And how many more after that until someone actually DOES SOMETHING to hold these abusers accountable?

Brett Ratner? In the Epstein Files? I'M SO VERY SHOCKED. I mean, it's not like he's been accused of inappropriate behaviour on multiple occasions and the only person who'll hire him is someone very closely connected to Epstein. Oh, wait... www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

To every American peacefully protesting against ICE. Protecting your neighbours. Helping your communities. Doing all you can while never resorting to the violence they accuse you of. The world sees you and will remember you all as the heroes you are.

THIS is what politics needs. A party who care about the people in it and refuse to be beholden to wealthy donors. This is just a small reflection of what the Green Party are about as well. Watch anything you can where Zack Polanski is speaking before the next election. You won't regret it.

In other news, what happened to Faraaz in The Traitors? I swear he said more yesterday than in the entire series so far. This series is harder to call than the Australian one I just finished and that was WILD.

So did someone just outline the existing peace agreements between Greenland and NATO, pat Trump on the head and tell him that he did that? It reminds me of dealing with toddlers. Give him a participation trophy and send him for a nap.

I've sussed Trumps plan. Take over Greenland. Take the Nobel committee by force. Award himself the Novel Peace Prize. Name it after himself going forward so it becomes the Trump Prize For Bigliest Achievement Ever.

I am now watching Voyage Of The Rock Aliens after being 100% sold on it by the How Did This Get Made? Podcast. This is the most amazing chaotic nonsense ever already and I'm only 10 minutes in.

I see Trump has employed the services of Blair now. The ultimate master of illegally invading countries and then managing to spin it so hard he ended up with an honour for his 'peace efforts'. Seems apt.

So everyone knows each other because they all worked in the Police Force apparently.

There was an old President committed some crimes. I don't know why he committed those crimes. Perhaps he'll lie. There was an old president released some files. I don't know why he released the files, perhaps he'll lie.

So if the US thinks it's fair game to kidnap world leaders and make them answer for any crimes they have committed in a different country who is volunteering to go get the Cheeto so he can stand trial for his multiple proven felonies and all those ones brushed under the rug?

Ask people to name 3 common board games and you'll find two types of people. Those who say Monopoly, Scrabble and Cluedo and those who say Catan, Ticket To Ride, and Carcassonne. Real nerds will refuse to say Catan and call it Settlers or Settlers of Catan.

Traitors continues to be excellent and unpredictable viewing. The new twist is absolutely superb.

Watching Wicked and I don't think burning an effigy and shouting about not mourning someone you knew and once called friend is very good witch behaviour. Feels rude and disrespectful to me Glinda.

Is Epstein the ultimate receipt keeper? Documenting and keeping detailed accounts of your entire life of crime and seemingly every single interaction with every person you ever had contact with is "If I'm going down I'm taking everyone with me" on another level I can't even comprehend.

The world is darker without Rob Reiner. He gave us some of the greatest movies of all time, was one of the most versatile directors ever and a talented writer. An absolute icon lost in a horrific tragedy along with his wife Michelle. I cannot even imagine the pain of their children and loved ones.

I propose that we pass a gaming law that states if your game has a name longer than 4 words you are only allowed numbered sequels and not a number plus a further 5+ word subtitle.

So is Trump only pardoning a turkey if it signs a document to say it believes the Epstein Files are a democratic hoax full of lies and autopen?

Judge rules George R.R. Martin and other authors can sue OpenAI for copyright infringement • Said ChatGPT generated 'Game of Thrones' content similar enough to infringe copyright • OpenAI’s motion to dismiss was denied

In a couple of years I imagine there will be a 100% accurate movie of the Louvre heist and everyone will assume it's fake or exaggerated. Broad daylight? While the museum was open? With a very obvious ladder and high vis jackets? Just using power tools? It sounds like a shite movie script.

So, many hours of people making got wood jokes while some dickhead hoards sheep?

Ah, happy 88th anniversary of the day Oswald Mosley tried to sell fascism to Liverpudlians – and someone concussed him with a brick

I hope all this autism discourse leads to some proper understanding and acceptance. We all have difficulties, and we have a higher chance of having other disabilities that have greater impact on quality of life, communication etc. however, the biggest issue is a lack of basic respect towards us.

Turns out our kid has inherited our musical taste. What we both thought was the other persons playlist in the car turned out to be the teenager in the back hijacking the Bluetooth connection.

He's going to bring up the long debunked vaccine link which a disgraced and struck off doctor admitted he made up over a decade ago and present it as a "fact" isn't he?

. Epstein isn’t the first! In the UK, Jimmy Savile r*ped hundreds of children. He was protected by media, hospitals, even the Royals. He died with knighthood and honors. Everyone “knew.” No one stopped him. #EpsteinFiles .

If you are a company using AI instead of actual people and selling the "work" then fuck you. Tens of Thousands of writers, artists, VO artists etc are out of work due to AI which was trained using OUR work and it's getting worse. Fuck Google's AI summaries in particular.
