Last year I did literally tell someone on here to "please leave me alone" and they said "what are you, six years old" because they apparently didn't understand that was me politely giving them one last chance before I blocked them.
if someone isn't interested in your debate, digression, diversion, etc, then just leave them alone. it's really simple. if you wouldn't shout at people in the street demanding they hear your point of view, don't do it here

just gonna reshare this post (and thread) because I think it's really important that people understand how we all use social media differently. some simply want to chat, some want to joke, or offload, or muse. These are not all opportunities for debate
I am begging the users of this wesbite - of all the websites that work like this - to understand the basic fucking manners that are involved in talking to other people on here. If you hit Reply, the original poster is going to take that as a direct response to what they said, because it is.

Hugely enjoying this book, racing through it, and just came across a detail I'm curious about. Wilson says the Beatles offered to play at the Brazil squad's hotel in Liverpool during the 1966 World Cup but the Brazilian directors rejected them. I've never heard this before.

Once a year, every year, the entire French Lycee in South Kensington would be gathered together to watch Le Ballon Rouge, resulting in generations of Franco-British children who fucking hate Le Ballon Rouge
Just a reminder that the beautiful “The Red Balloon” 🎈 is still available to watch in its entirety (30 minutes) on YouTube

Kidnapping the leader of a foreign state without any declaration of war and announcing it via social media is full-on rogue state stuff. From the world’s number one superpower.

Maduro was a despot and a terrible leader who allowed his country to suffer while he and his cronies profited, but it seems the US has kidnapped him on the basis of his crimes against us, which in whole amounted to being annoying.

Fascinated that director Gerald Glaister appears to have decided the final scene of this 1962 episode of Maigret should have a lesbian couple in the background

If, being incredibly charitable, you didn’t intend to make a CSAM robot, not immediately turning off the CSAM robot when you find out you accidentally made a CSAM robot should still get you put in the magnetic boots prison from Face/Off
