My sense is that the “male loneliness crisis” is not really about addressing men’s emotional needs but rather the relatively newfound absence of having someone to perform domestic labor for you quietly in the background now that there is a longer gap between your mother and your wife doing it

They’ve got to make a true-crime style film about the Salt Path scam, but also starring Gillian Anderson and Jason Isaacs.

It only took ten years for a dedicated bunch of well-connected weirdoes to get the entire UK elite to unite against a tiny minority of the population that they previously barely noticed.
The few to resist, like Robin Ince, deserve our lasting gratitude and respect.

some significant part of this is just catch-all fear for “this is not the child I ordered” I think
Oh, here's a big surprise. The transphobes don't believe in ADHD either.
then, the transphobes , feeling victorious at how many people they have made unhappy and despairing in the previous week, move on to anything else that has a spectrum and the possibility of more colours than they can conceive - such hateful people - they cannot understand anything that is not THEM

Between GW and OF male loneliness is keeping the UK alive
it's so funny that Games Workshop went in twenty years from a company that made games you got beaten up in middle school for enjoying to now being the 67th most valuable company in the United Kingdom

If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.

As Charles Grodin responded to all the griping about ISHTAR’s budget, “Why should the public be concerned what the budget of a movie is? Coca-Cola financed the movie. It's not as if Coca-Cola was going to give that money to the people of America rather than spend it.”
People are whining that One Battle After Another cost too much money and will have a soft opening but whatever because a) it’s not your money they spent b) movies have a life beyond the opening weekend c) I expect strong legs for this one because everyone loves it

It speaks volumes about how unmoored Labour has become from the people who actually voted for it in 2024 (i.e. people in work) that the line on digital ID cards is just an obvious lie to anyone who has changed jobs in the past decade!

Unfortunately when you follow UK politics closely, you realise that around 80% of Westminster believe this kind of thing is very smart, and moreover, true.
I know very little about UK politics but I know enough to know there is zero chance Starmer is actually this stupid.
