NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN was released 18 years ago today. One of the most successful movies of the Coen brothers, and acclaimed as one of the great book-to-screen adaptations of the 21st century, missing the story of how it came to be is like losing a Chigurh coin toss…

@spireitehistory.bsky.social at 2-0 down today, bloke near me (let's call him Waldorf) declared "we always lose the first game of the season with the yellow ball, always". Any truth in this, or is it as valid as his extreme disdain for Dobra?

This morning the Chancellor spoke of difficult decisions for everyone but the ultra-rich.
It’s time to tackle the cost of living crisis, end child poverty and invest in our vital public services by taxing extreme wealth fairly.

Partly because so many formerly leftwing parties have turned to the right, there's a lot of confusion about what right and left mean in politics. I hope this helps:
The right defends economic power.
The left resists economic power.

Andrew is a sort of non-prince now, a… well, I’m sure there’s some sort of portmanteau word that would describe him well.

Look at this graph, Reform almost all of them went to Private School.
If you are Working Class and you vote for Reform, you are a traitor, to yourself.
Or as we call them, a bloody fool.

THE TERMINATOR was released 41 years ago today. Acclaimed as one of the great science fiction/action films of the 1980s, and the film that launched the career of writer-director James Cameron, the story of how it was made absolutely will not stop. Ever. Until it is read…

Last season Maccabi Tel Aviv played Ajax in Amsterdam & their fans went on an anti-Arab rampage. Throwing rocks at homes displaying Palestinian flags, attacking Arab taxi drivers & chanting “Let the IDF win and f*ck the Arabs” and “Why is school out in Gaza? There are no children left there.”

After years of drip-fed revelations, we might as well face it. This is a family elevated by birthright: they’re stuck with him and so are we, says Guardian columnist Marina Hyde

I'm pretty sure we have been drawn away to the team top of the third tier (i .e. the most difficult possible tie) in the first round of the FA cup infinitely more times than is statistically plausible

As a lifelong hate-watcher of #BBCQT it's been incredible to see the tone shift in last night's prog with @zackpolanski.bsky.social on. It should have never been that hard to call for common sense - and actually popular - policies. Someone is actually doing it.

The proof that UEFA is dead against staging domestic league games abroad is that is has just authorised (albeit "reluctantly") two of them to take place. "War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength". via @tariqpanja.bsky.social
