I’m grateful for the TV series ‘Hunters’ because now if I’m asked what’s the worst TV ‘drama’ I’ve ever seen I have a definitive answer. I’m still watching it in disbelief - it’s not even unintentionally funny, it’s just painfully inept. Try it drunk is my advice.

America. Paranoid for decades about being taken over by some brutal (fictional) ‘red threat’ has now been taken over by a brutal,fascistic ‘red-neck threat’. None of them are Russian btw.

Yes we do. Starmer is and always has been an entryist shitbag. Burnham is a piss poor alternative to an actual socialist leader, but unlike Starmer he isn’t owned by the Israel/arms manufacturers lobbies. He’s needed now.

Sentencing should be equally moderate - immediate expulsion to Libya.

Bob Dylan once said a single folk singer could defeat an entire army. Ladies and gentlemen, I think we have our man.

ICE could be described as an American Gestapo except the Gestapo were evil and organised. ICE are rednecks who think Call of Duty is real life. In fact a lot of American history could be summed up as ‘morons with guns’. Such a bad combination.

Slow Horses is a really terrible tv series. (I don’t do recommendations, but I can guide you through the minefield of shit that is Amazon/Netflix/Apple tv).

More importantly - why don’t people notice that we’re ALWAYS in a recession of some sort or other?
not that the present economic picture is rosy, but i do think that popular culture — and specifically nostalgia bait television — is a big part of the reason that our public memory of the 1970s, 1980s and even 1990s seems to miss the real economic pain that marked each of those decades.

Listening to a cricket podcast earlier and I began to loathe the two giggling blokes with their ironic high fives and mad cheerfulness. Then I realised I just hated the sound of people younger than me having a better time than me.
