Science fiction is often intended to shine a light on the real world.

Perhaps no recent movie did this better than...... Elysium (2013)

Great opportunity to help modernise one of the iconic climate time series - Central England Temperature.

Robbie Gibb should have been ruled out of the running for the BBC Board in 2021: it was clear he'd been closely involved in setting up GB News - an ideological project aiming to rival to the BBC, & therefore a clear conflict of interest. The fact he was still allowed to join always rang alarm bells.

PLEASE SIGN THIS IF YOU'RE SICK OF THE UK KISSING TRUMP'S A*SE. Also, what the BBC should do is apologise for its stupid mistake, & make a donation in Trump's name to a couple of charities for Survivors of Sexual Abuse & Fighting Climate Change. That would show him!

A pilgrimage I have not made for many years – Hutton’s Unconformity at Lochranza, Arran. The site where Hutton could finally prove the earth was unimaginably ancient. A place of deep history in every way.

Two yrs. ago I was watching something where they were explaining/showing the normal life of N. Koreans.

What I never forgot was that they ate the same meal twice a day. It was something like a bowl of rice and a bowl of beans. That's it. Twice per day.

Since then, I've thought the same thing.
Goal is to make America like N. Korea. People starving dont revolt. They literally worship dear leader in order to MAYBE get food, keep from being put in "re-education" concentration camps w entire family even if they had nothing to do w any of it.
By time, IF EVER, Americans figure it out, to late

Imagine the anger of the prosecutors, grand jurors, investigators, judges, jurors, and other officers of the court who did all the hard work involved in convicting all the criminal friends of Trump whom he is now pardoning with a stroke of a pen.
