I hope this one's even more self-indulgent than Gremlins 2.
Gremlins 3 has been greenlit by Warner Bros, and will release in theaters on November 19, 2027. Christopher Columbus will direct. #Gremlins #Gremlins3

I mean, I know we live in linear time and that 1981 was forty-four years ago, so on an objective level "Adam Ant is 71 today" must be a factual statement about reality.
But also, that's clearly bollocks. Adam Ant can't be 71.

Adam Ant is 71 today. Hard to emphasise how seismic this was in playgrounds across the country in 1980. For a period he was as big as any act has been. Was he the perfect pop star? I think so. It couldn't last but if you were there you'll never forget it.

"Have you considered waiting for the conference in November before accusing Your Party of being transphobic? Because we're having a vote on whether to support trans then. Me, I don't have a problem with them. I was actually in the same room as Jeremy when he said he wasn't bothered about it either."

"has moved to Connecticut and is writing a book on quilting" is the best euphemism I have ever heard. "What do you think of X?" "I reckon they'll move to Connecticut and write a book on quilting" "Yeah totally"

The phrase "trans activist" is goofy because like 95% of the time it's used it refers to a trans person simply existing.
Media, pointing at a woman buying a coffee: behold, a trans activist.

Drum fills function as a “signpost” indicating to a listener that you are moving to a new section. While often found in music, you can also use them when explaining a recipe to a friend, reading a chapter book to a child, or testifying to defend yourself from racketeering charges in a court of law.
