Wondering if that Starmer fellow might at this point get off his hind legs, and then, standing erect, tell this swine to apologize or otherwise go fuck himself. I'm asking on behalf of the British war dead. The U.K. lost soldiers at a per capita rate only slightly below that of the U.S.
Trump on NATO: "I've always said, will they be there if we ever needed them? That's really the ultimate test. I'm not sure of that. We've never needed them. They'll say they sent some troops to Afghanistan and this or that. And they did. They stayed a little back, off the front lines."

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

A decade of darkness: Denis Villeneuve’s Sicario turns 10.

A masterclass in tension, morality, and the blurred lines of justice.

“Everything that’s going on now is so depressing. I had to tune out for the sake of My mental health, and that may have been taken the wrong way.”

A letter from God, as transcribed by @petridishes.bsky.social:
It’s Me, God, Explaining My Involvement
Everything that’s going on now is so depressing. I had to tune out for the sake of My mental health.

Hackman’s Royal Tenenbaum massively reminded me of my mischievous & eternally fun-loving Irish grandfather (without the sociopathic tendencies) & my relationship with him in this joyously anarchic sequence.

Disruptors. How did we ever fall for Disruptors?

They sell it as hipsters finding clever ways to make life easier.

They're actually conmen, strip-mining entire industries and destabilising democracy by dismantling the standards that make society function.
