If you took $1 billion and gave it to the endowment of a different small college each day, they could each provide a free college education to several hundred students per year in perpetuity. Instead we are using that money to bomb schools and kill students in Iran, for no clearly stated purpose.
A new paper shows that less than 2 months of exposure to Twitter’s algorithmic feed significantly shifts people’s political views to the right.
Moving from chronological feed to the algorithmic feed also increases engagement.
This is one of the most concerning papers I’ve read in awhile.
They have a big sign up on the door of the screen I just walked into at the cinema saying confetti canons are banned.
I'm seeing Hamnet.
Ella McCay is good and only me & the French understand this.

Not again
Rugby Challenge 2006 is number one because it's the only game where you can tackle your own players
I've actually played it a few times in the last week and it is now an actual functional video game with almost as much content as it launched with.
It's better than the official 2015 World Cup game and Rugby 15 so that makes it like the eighth best rugby game ever or something
I really liked the luxury of Frankenstein on that front. You could feel the 30 years GDT has been trying to make it throughout the film itself. The stuff he pinpoints and/or adds to the book adds proper depth.
Loved BOWI! It's so lovely. Had a cry had many laughs, what more can you want?!
Same here. It's incredible. There's so much in that movie, it's just bursting with ideas and reflections and as you say, things I've never seen in a film before. I thought it was astonishing. I'm so crazily invested in Spike as a character, I'd watch thirty films about him growing up in this world.
I honestly have no idea.
It's a coming of age movie about Brexit. The only way it could be more up my street was if it didn't have zombies in it.
(And some more)
(I could go on all day)
Some films I really liked but didn't hear many people talking about-
I was going to do an additional shorter list of the funniest films of 2025 but one movie is so far and away ahead of the others it felt pointless
It's that time of year again! I saw 194 movies released in 2025, and these are my twenty favourites-
Snog Antoine Marry Movies
Year Twelve.
Movies are great.
My main accomplishment in 2025 was that I got very tired.
That's a brilliant idea I may have to steal
They should make up a holiday just so people watch Singin in the Rain like how they made up Christmas just so people watch It's a Wonderful Life
Professional sports is the only profession where if you get good enough at your job, you will become a playable character in a video game.
What if the movie was called Glad Boys and Will Smith and Martin Lawrence played men who were very grateful. That’s what I’m thinking abou.
Amen
Good time to add Google Docs constantly suggesting ways to make your writing more boring like it's pointing out spelling mistakes has been driving me to the brink.
I don't want to be a dickhead about this, but I'm not sure I want to associate one of my heroes passing away with a paedophile being murdered.
Absolutely. And one of the most effortlessly funny people to ever live too. She impacted and contributed to the world we live in today in so many endless ways, some subtle and some very very loud.
I don’t think I can understand a world without Diane Keaton in it.
Genuinely think this is one of my favourite video essays, and I don't just say that because I love rugby/I'm friendly with @squidgygoat.bsky.social.
The way it details both the sports drama and political tension does such a good job at illustrating how almost every activity is inherently political.
He's gonna make some insane tweets about this, I can't wait
