They’ve blown up schools & hospitals, murdered journalists, tortured doctors and always this excuse of “we have evidence of Hamas” as if evidence matters to anyone anymore. Their supporters let them murder with impunity and no one else believes evidence exists so save everyone’s time you evil fucks

Wall to wall hacks sharing solemn “press freedom” posts whenever Donald Trump calls Chuck Blastoise of WBYN News a silly name - but multiple targeted strikes on the only ones documenting Gaza and it’s crickets.

Shameful.

I don’t think this is the worst of the Disney live actions (Pinocchio, The Lion King, Alice in Wonderland and Aladdin all worse imo) but the songs are fucking woeful and even without her being a Zionist freak Gadot is almost incomprehensibly bad

Wife and I are watching the Zegler Snow White. What an incredible turn of events that this movie’s reputation will forever be linked to the Jamie Lloyd Evita. Can’t be too many examples of a universally-acclaimed starring role in a West End musical erasing the negative effects of a box office flop

Guess Bono has decided that people from Gaza are brown enough to be worthy of his self-regarding pity

On the latest episode of @blankcheck.bsky.social talking about The Hudsucker Proxy, @davidlsims.bsky.social says “if you put on a Paul Newman movie, you’re gonna have a good time.” Currently watching Nobody’s Fool (released same year as Hudsucker) and can confirm this is profoundly correct

It’s crazy how sometimes you go out with a group of people and feel completely at home, accepted and the warm glow of your own little community and then another time with the same group your brain just convinces you that these people barely tolerate you and god this tweet is just

It’d be cool if we as a nation took our heads out of our arses and stopped welcoming raging anti-Semites with crowds and camera crews cause they made a film here thirty years ago

It’s clear now that Alan Dershowitz is destined to spend the remainder of his miserable life living the existence of Plankton from Spongebob

I quickly accepted that not getting Oasis tickets was just luck of the draw for basically the biggest gigs of the last 10 years in this country but i have to say, seeing American non-music media people posting photos from UK concerts is really fucking irking me

Brexit has helped Britain re-establish itself as a world leader in “being fascist in the dumbest way possible”

*seeing a street of derelict buildings in a rural Irish village*

“Absolutely disgusting, do you know how many data centres we could make with this land? Less than one-tenth of one!”

The latest spate of attacks on Indian people is simply the outworking of a renormalisation of racism within our public discourse.

Admitting on main that he doesn’t “know boob history well enough to fact check” like keep that to yourself son

Nope that one was the great @ronronzo.bsky.social

Okay I did it and mentioned that I’m “looking for someone who understands the difficulty in finding a young Tesco shop assistant who knows what Buckfast is” and they got VERY mad

Friend was showing me that there's now an Irish dating subreddit, so it's time for an Irish dating Bluesky. The format is we post a short description of who we are and what we're looking for, and an American will come and tell us that in the US you can't return books to any library you want actually

Yeah if the dog is really jumpy or barly and clearly overwhelmed by the situation then it’s definitely frustrating for others but I feel like some people pretend to “love” dogs and yet freak out if a dog is indoors even if it’s chill and bothering no one

And a host of others:

- Paul Newman
- wedding photos
- the current LA Sparks roster
- the score to 28 Years Later
- a happy look in the mirror

In the face of some really awful news this evening, I’m doing a “things that are good” thread as a distraction / reminder that the world can be something other than shitty.

First of all, personal but enjoyable, our new shelving unit

Watching clips from Las Culturistas awards and I think Jack Quaid should be in every movie, award show, social media snippet and should also be my new best friend

Jennifer Jason Leigh, best to ever do it

The Hudsucker Proxy. Basically no one knows this movie exists, and it’s genuinely one of their best. Robbins, Leigh and Newman, all absolutely sensational here. If you’ve never seen this one, it’s one of my few 100% satisfaction recs
