He really does find a new low each day, somehow.
Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

My latest review is of Edgar Wright's #TheRunningMan, and whilst it pays faithful homage to King's novel, it's far too lightweight to carry its themes through. My thoughts for @moviemarker.bsky.social.

It’s awards season. My 4th time seeing #Sinners on the big screen and yep, still my film of the year. Also getting the opportunity to speak with Ryan and Miles was awesome too!

A big win for people more outraged by a silly edit at the BBC than by a man impeached by Congress for literally inciting an insurrection being back in the White House. Pathetic.

Jeffries: "Understand, until Donald Trump tells them what to do, Republicans in the House and Senate are going to be unwilling to find a bipartisan path forward because this version of the Republican Party, they don't work for the American people. They work for Donald Trump."

This MF lies as easily as he breathes
Trump: "I have the best numbers for any president in many years. Any president. And I would say if you read it, it's pretty clear I'm not allowed to run. It's too bad."

(Trump's approval rating is currently at a historic low, even for him, so no, his numbers are not the "best")

Fresh from #LFF is my review of Nia DaCosta's #Hedda, a debaucherous riot of a film which sees Tessa Thompson in fine form. Seriously, I hope these cinematic Queens continue making movies together. They're special. My thoughts for @moviemarker.bsky.social.

Very rare to be in a P&I screening where as soon as the credits rolled, no one moved. Powerful and harrowing that left me angry and in a flood of tears afterwards. Nothing will prepare you for this. A necessary watch that will undoubtedly linger with me for a long time. #TheVoiceofHindRajab #LFF
Now seated for film 18 of #LFF. Got the tissues ready. Now watching #TheVoiceofHindRajab

It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

Absolutely fucking shameful that Ferrari doesn't push back against this transparent bullshit.

Nigel Farage doubles down on his bet that immigrants were eating cats and dogs in America.

He now suggests there's a 'similar story' in Britain.

London resident here.
There is no Sharia law. No one is asking for Sharia law.
The mayor has cleaned up the air, improved social housing and transport, and all with 24 hour armed guards because people who don't live in London keep lying about him and inciting people over here to want him killed.

If this idiot's lips are moving, he is fucking lying. London does NOT have Sharia law...
Trump to the UN: "I have to say, I look at London where you have a terrible mayor -- terrible terrible mayor -- and it's been so changed, so changed. Now they want to go to Sharia Law ... both their immigration and their suicidal energy ideas will be the death of Western Europe."
