Mark Kermode watched the Melania film. He does not hold back. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTyUni8dbkE This is how every single story about Trump should be covered; mention a current event, then in the same breath mention one of the many repugnant things that administration is doing for the actua...

She looks like Phil Mitchell in a wig.

Is the first season of that any good? I wasn't terribly enthusiastic about the films (other than the first, which was fantastic), but I think that's the first bit of media I've seen for it and... it just looks like more of the films rather than some cut down TV version.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cj0ngrjy22jo So the FBI are now taking possession of the original ballots from the 2020 presidential election, from a county that was a narrow win for Biden. The News Agents podcast have an interview with an election official from that county, who has what I think...

I don't think so. You can find the text for the Vienna Conventions online, and it doesn't really mention anything about violations of the convention. I suspect all that would happen would be Ecuador would lodge a complaint made to the UN. Given Trump's disdain for the UN, I'm not going to be terribl...

Looks like ICE agents attempted to enter an Ecuadorian consulate building in Minneapolis without permission, and threatened the member of the consulate's staff that stopped him. https://www.esquire.com/news-politics/politics/a70173818/ecuadorian-consulate-us-embassy-copenhagen/ I'm not remotely surp...

https://www.thenerve.news/p/palantir-technologies-uk-government-contracts-size-nuclear-deterrent-atomic-peter-thiel-louis-mosley The fact that the cunts named the company after the evil ball from LoTR that let's the evil overlord see everything should have been a subtle clue to how shady these cunt...

I was going to make a joke about Donald threatening the UK with sanctions as a result, but I don't think he cares about his wife any more than we do.

Jesus, that's depressing; quality of writing taking a backseat to engagement. I shouldn't be surprised I guess. One of the bigger laughs I've had in the recent series of Rick and Morty was them subverting the "Here's the plan" trope. They had the voiceover of the planning phase with the actual event...

People that put their recycling out for collection when there are 50mph winds. Like, I get it, if you don't put them out they're definitely not getting collected, but they're also definitely not getting collected when they've inevitably been blown loose down the street because not even a wheelie bin...

I really liked season 5 too, though the overall impression I've been getting is that many thought it was just "fine".

Honestly at this point I think we're maybe two or three weeks away from them announcing Liz Truss. Oh look, an article written by Nigel Farage not two months ago entitled "Never, ever trust the Tories": https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/12/01/never-ever-trust-the-tories/ Jesus christ the satiris...

Well hot damn. The NRA should be protesting it.... But they won't.... I utterly detest the NRA, they're one of the very worst things about the United States, but I'm impressed that they actually took a stance here - honestly anything that makes their enormous influence-base question the tangerine ty...

The Beeb quoted the US Border Patrol commander talking about the incident. ... "The victims are the border patrol agents." He adds that the Second Amendment right to bear arms "don't count when you riot... and disrupt law enforcement". While it's been abundantly clear that the US gun nuts don't actu...

They were pistol whipping the guy, as far as I can tell in the head just before the first shot is fired. And then two of the big damn heroes stand back and put multiple rounds into a man lying on his back on the ground.

The United States is absolutely fucked.
