The "don't have an extra kid if you can't afford it" brigade get awfully upset when you suggest they don't stay in their £2m house if they can't afford it, don't they?

Linda McMahon is the first name listed. Her wealth today comes entirely from TKO stock, which means WWE fans are helping fund the Trump Administration. That's why good people don't support that company.
Now here’s the kind of news you drop going into a long holiday weekend. Maybe no one will notice. 🤡

Just finished A Link Between Worlds for the first time & it's an easy top 5 Zelda game for me, maybe even top 3?
Loved the 2D plane mechanic which opened up some seriously tricky puzzles, the exploration was really satisfying and there was a story beat at the end that I genuinely didn't see coming.

I've had a lot of great first time watches this year as part of my 70s project, but the absolute highlight was 'Ivan Vasilievich Changes His Profession'.
I don't know what I expected from a time travel film made in the USSR, but it was both hilarious and overflowing with the joy of cinema

If you've got a spare 20 minutes this evening, this is the best Czechoslovakian stop-motion short film about the repression of art under a totalitarian state that you're likely to see.
Also, it's fucking hilarious.
