I absolutely, absolutely, absolutely cannot wait for this Robbie Williams/monkey biopic www.theguardian.com/music/2024/d...
‘Fame is a drug like LSD’: Robbie Williams on success, sexuality and his simian movie alter ego
The former Take That star has made a biopic, Better Man, in which he’s played by a CGI chimpanzee. He talks about sex, drugs and the traumatic madness of 90s pop

Just a little reminder that the South Korean president who just declared martial law was elected two years ago on a wave of anti-feminist backlash. Misogyny is routinely part of the authoritarian package.

Disgruntled young men who resent feminism are the focus of candidates vying to be president.

Has global warming accelerated in recent decades? If we look at the rate of warming between 1970 and 2008 and extend it through present, we see that almost all years since 2015 are above the previous trend.

The caterwauling around the new Jaguar is v. telling: fear of standing out, fear of change, fear of being challenged... rife, celebrated & normalised. The car is odd & imperfect but wow, how refreshing to see a globally-known name do something v. weird www.youtube.com/watch?v=QzGl...

We all think plastic pollution is a problem, and it is. In the nearly 70 years between 1950 and 2019, the world produced a total of ~9.5 billion tonnes of plastic.

But all the plastic we have EVER produced weighs as much as CO₂ we emitted into the atmosphere during the first three months of 2024!

Drake just signed a legal document acknowledging "Not Like Us" did him great harm.

Is this not the biggest defeat in hip-hop history?
