From Russia With Love is such a funny movie. The Training School for Evil Henchmen is something that bond parodies wished they could do, but they can't, because they already did it as part of a real bond film

ANIMAL CRACKERS (1930) just entered the public domain and it's already on Tubi (and elsewhere).
I remember its 1979 TV premiere on CBS, after decades of unavailability due to rights issues.
I hope a new generation discovers the Marx Bros. now, just like I did then. #FilmSky #PublicDomain

En kvinna, utklädd till rosa Power Ranger, hackade datingsida för högerextrema. Hon raderade hela sidan, men först fick hon användarna att bli kära i AI-botar som hon drev och fick på så sätt ut information om dem. Över 8000 högerextrema profiler har nu kartlagts.

Sometimes at Repair Cafe we get items in that are a pleasure to repair. This was one of those things, a Tomy Super Cup Football Game from the mid-80s. As you can see from this disassembly it's basically a motor driven gearbox. An absolute joy to work on. This was not working due to a motor jam.

Spiders Georg, who lives in a mansion and owns a trillion dollars, is an outlier and should not have been counted
America is rich and the UK is poor…
True but this statistic shocked me…
The average wealth per American adult is $620k but the median is only $124k!
The average wealth per UK adult is $339k and the median is $176k. 🧵

I've had it muted more or less since I've had an account here and never once missed hearing about the latest idiocy. It helps to dial the volume down though.

General reminder that if you mute the current US president's surname on here, you will miss absolutely zero important news. Even right now. But your timeline will do way less stacking damage to your mental health.

The problem with watching Eurotrash now is that it looks expensive compared to any even vaguely adjacent programme now. (Not that there really are any any more.)
Presenters, sets, models (of both types), clear time spent on writing actual funny jokes and material…

It's the new financial year in the CofE and I've not yet put in the new budget numbers but we've had some invoices to pay and our finance system is now projecting we'll spend [checks notes] £100,000 on candles
