Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

Swalwell: The guy said he would cut prices, and instead he’s killing people—and I’m not signing off on that.

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.

Democracy dies in oligarchy.

GOP Rep. Thomas Massie: “How will we know if this bill has been successful? We will know when rich men are being perp walked in handcuffs to the jail. Until then, this is still a coverup.”

Nigel Farage announces plans to slash vital benefit to fund 5p cheaper pints Nigel Farage's party had promised to back scrapping the two-child benefit limit, but now Reform intends to funnel the support to the most vulnerable into slashing prices in pubs

Nigel Farage is going to "save pubs" by cutting 5p off the price of a pint of beer...

The £3 billion cost will be funded by reinstating the two-child benefit limit.

This might be the worst policy anyone has ever come up with.

Poster for Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter shows in black and white a hooded figure menacing a young woman, the figure of Kronos coming to the rescue, and in the background a man and a woman holding a large cross, and a large house with bats flying around. The name of the film is written in red, there is a red border, and in red at the top the tagine 'The only man alive feared by the walking dead.'

Tonight's 📽 A revisit to glorious late-period Hammer horror Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter (1974, dir. Brian Clemens). Horst Janson and Caroline Munro lead a great cast including John Carson. It's brilliantly, thrillingly weird, stuffed full of beautiful frames, black humour, action and invention.

Seattle loves dialing up play action shots out of 12 personnel. When they call em, they’re averaging 13.1 (!!!) yds/play.

I personally do not think some rich man should be able to buy an institution like this like a toy and then break it when he doesn’t want to play with it anymore. bsky.app/profile/benm...

Mandelson wants the BBC to report that he denies everything, but for some reason does not want to go on the record denying everything.

Hot Take 2: if this is Mandelson's position, there is no reason for him not to issue a statement to this effect. If he has not issued a statement to this effect, the BBC's "understanding" of his actual position may be inaccurate. Stop letting people play this game.

Plants in containers surround a conservatory and a view takes one's attention down the garden where two ladies are chatting over coffee.

A garden painting with my old green bike, a couple of friends chatting and some of the usual clutter to be seen through the glass of the conservatory. Oil on board. I don't like the white aluminium conservatory so I hung lengths of ivy down it to break up the lines.

Currently watching Starbuck slowly break apart because there's a Cylon she can't kill. This episode is great.

This is my message for people not currently doing a Battlestar rewatch:

*Funny how secrets travel*
I'm sure you noticed that girl.
Good looking blonde.
*A blond belief beyond. No return, no return*
Her name is Alice. I swear,
I love that girl to death.
*And the fist of love. Over your head*
And your name? What the fuck is your name?!
