YouTube video by Madonna Madonna - Into The Groove (Official Video)

#80sTop30
Can’t have an 80s selection without something from Madonna Louise Ciccone.

Into the Groove, a song I loved at the time but pretended that I didn’t.

A different version of this may feature later in my choices! Not sure.

And you can dance, for inspiration.

Come on…..I’m waiting. 😀

If Trump were to invoke The Resurrection Act the U.S. will be beyond a Constitutional crisis. The U.S. will fully in the hands of Nazis and our democracy will have officially ceased to exist.

At that point, the fight to restore democracy will become existential.

Oh surprise surprise no one could have known that was going to happen!

Wild that Farage’s best mate is a Russian asset, we still don’t know who paid for Nige’s house AND he can’t bring himself to say anything critical of Putin

But the biggest story of corruption the Sun & Mail can muster is “should Rayner have a nice car?”

I was a skeptic about the import of the Epstein files.

But 3 invasions of cities, one military buildup outside Venezuela, a government shutdown, and so many other things meant to distract have me convinced whatever’s in there is the biggest presidential scandal in U.S. history.

Things come easily to pretty people (men & women) but they’ll never know the real secrets.

"Deported" is a very interesting way to say kidnapped, imprisoned illegally, abused, then released. 🤔

GBNews have been in breach of the broadcasting code countless times and been ‘censured’ by Ofcom (let off with warnings). Doubt if this will be different.

John Landis (yes, I know) once made an astute observation. He noted that through the history of cinema, horror is one of the most durable genres. The only thing that really changes is the budgets.

Right now, we're in a period of really good horror "A pictures" with great production values.

BBC Laura Kuenssberg Show Accused of Anti-Green Bias After Cancelling Zack Polanski Interview The new Green Party leader was the only major party leader not to have been granted a conference interview on the flagship BBC show

The Greens requested an interview on the Laura Kuenssberg Show with Zack Polanski when he was elected leader, but were denied, with a promise to interview him during Green conference instead.

This was then scrapped citing the Manchester synagogue attack. Polanski is both Jewish and from Manchester

Where Redford went, I guess women always followed 😕

“it doesn’t mean I’m a bad person or a bad comedian just because I wear a dress on stage & you can see my nipples.” Elouise Eftos

Maybe not, but it seems an attention-seeking move to get noticed & disingenuous to try to cloak it in some kind of ‘feminist’ statement.
You can’t fool us gals pet.

“People may not realise it, but their bills would be higher today without the increasing role that wind and solar farms running on free sunshine and wind are playing by reducing our dependence on gas power."


Hidden good news for everybody. And showing yet again that the Tories are dead wrong.

Over 71,000 people took action to ask Ofcom to hold GB News to account.
After months of waiting, Ofcom found GB News in breach of their code. Ofcom confirmed that the broadcast “had the potential to cause a high degree of offence” & used complaints to highlight how harmful GB News’s comments were.

So "barmy" Badenoch speaks and the BBC seek out conference attendees that "just happen" to support her views, just like they did with "fruitcake" Farage.
When "sane" Starmer spoke though, they sought out only those critical of him.
Of course the BBC has no political bias though, do they?

GBNEWS really get hurt when someone faces them with the truth, don’t they? Snowflakes.

It’s a theory…

The government is shut down, millions of Americans are suffering, and this dipshit is golfing on our dime today.

I’m allergic to perfumed cosmetics and chemicals in stuff. I’ll be taking the shower instead.

People are going to imagine they can just use the deodorant instead of having a proper shower.

You spray that stuff into some of your more sensitive parts and watch that allergic reaction flare up

U.S. conducts fourth strike on boat it claims was trafficking drugs near Venezuela American forces have now killed 21 people in four vessels in international waters, officials say. Critics argue that the administration has not provided a proper legal rationale for the strikes.

How in the hell does Hogsbreath know these boats are narco-terrorists? Show the intelligence. Oh right, there is none. These small boats don’t have the capacity to reach the US so they’re just indiscriminately bombing a foreign vessel?

That dress lacks support 😂

I see ‘sober’ is the first adjective used…

Again…
