It's weird that the media is mocking the Greens cuz of Zack's teeth when... have they seen Farage? He looks like he's dying from rad poisoning in a Fallout game.

Now watching Shadow. I'm more well disposed towards it than I have been in the past. It's still a bit wobbly but repeated viewings have led me to better appreciate the things it does well. #Blakes7

Hands up everyone who has a story treatment in their head for how they'd bring back Blake's 7

The endless brain cycle of ordering something with chalula sauce, getting earwormed by "My Name of Tallulah" from Bugsey Malone, then thinking that it's weird that a kids film got away with having a musical number about a character boasting about what a well trained and skillful sex worker they are

Also a lesson for morally bankrupt, supposedly progressive parties worldwide: if you spend your energy trying to make voters who hate everything about you hate you slightly less, they still won't vote for you.
Gary Lineker: "This is the mistake the BBC makes. The BBC tries to appease the people that hate the BBC, rather than worrying about the people that love the BBC."

I would expand on this and say "Knowing what a bodega is and thinking it's unique to New York" they're just convenience stores lads. Calm down.
As @dicknixon.bsky.social said, this is like watching the Home Run Derby. But one answer in particular stuck out for me. Asked what it takes to be able to call yourself a "real New Yorker," he said "knowing what a bodega is."

I see billionaires as essentially hoarders. If you visited someone's home and it was filled floor to ceiling with junk you would feel the need for some sort of intervention but because it's money, and capitalism states that's how you win the game, no one says anything.
In a world filled with poverty, disease and suffering, choosing to be a billionaire is soulless, selfish and immoral. Choosing to be a trillionaire is downright evil.

From the forthcoming album "Desperate Crooning Wankers" which also includes such audio delights as Bill Maher's rendition of Mack the Knife and Gregg Wallace singing LA Is my Lady.
Jimmy Fallon, James Corden croon Sinatra, Bennett standards for gobsmacked guests in NYC

A source said, "The Eric Newman Jazz Band was playing, and before long, Fallon and Corden were up onstage trading Sinatra and Tony Bennett tunes!"

Subway are idiots if they don't sign this guy to an advertising contract immediately.

How long has Sam Beckett been pretending to be Marjorie Taylor Greene and what does he have to do to leap?
Greene: "I will praise Nancy Pelosi. She had an incredible career for her party. I served under her speakership in my first term in Congress and I'm very impressed at her ability to get things done. I wish we could get things done for our party like Nancy Pelosi was able to deliver for her party."
