Some kind of Halloween pun on the name Madeleine

Israel says 6,000 bombs dropped on Gaza as war with Hamas nears a week Air strikes pound Gaza for sixth day as deaths and fears of humanitarian disaster in besieged Palestinian enclave mount.

Honestly, why would you pretend Israel didn't bomb Gaza? Like there has to be a less embarrassing way to defend genocide.

True, but they get a lot more unquestioning support by the press and the government than people with beliefs like "energy bills should be affordable" ever will.

I'd like to think that was true, but not so long about being waving the flag and saying shit like "Christ is King" was also seen as nuts yankee nonsense in the UK, and now we can't move for the bastards.

All it takes to move the needle is infinite money from the evilest people on the planet.

The Klingon Ambassador stands in front of a huge image of "James T. Kirk, renegade and terrorist!"

Scotty, Uhura, Chekov and Sulu stand in a row on Vulcan, all in their "just after work on a Friday" outfits.

Bones and Scotty smiling.

The whole gang, smartly lined up at Starfleet Headquarters.

The Voyage Home: tan, I guess?

I mean this one doesn't work because most of the movie looks like 1986 San Francisco. And the rest of it looks like Search for Spock. There's really not much interesting to talk about here, but that's fine because we get to talk TNG next instead.

I think you might've dreamt that because Israel was flattening neighbourhoods in Gaza by the very next day. 6,000 bombs in the first week. Israel was extremely eager and mobilised to deliver as much death and destruction as possible from hour one.

It's surprisingly good, I think. Two colours with great contrast between them which are: 1) striking, 2) fairly neutral/natural, 3) have great contrast between them, 4) look great against black, and 5) work solidly with deep reds and blues.

It's uncanny.

Actually now I just want to illustrate all my points in palette diagrams but I just know it's going to be a pain to figure out.

I'd love to see what happens in the bowling alley when the ship gets hit with disruptor fire or a space swirly thing.

A palette of two colours: #7683A6 "cool grey" and 85553E "coffee".

This is where it all comes together. For the next ten years this is the foundation of most Federation visuals, right up until the they decide to drop "coffee". It's a great combination that also works extremely well with deep reds and blues. It was great until they also dropped "cool grey".

The USS Enterprise enters spacedock.

Admiral Kirk speaks with Admiral Morrow at a Starfleet Headquarters bar. It has a lot of wood panelling. It's glorious.

Lt. Saavik, David Marcus and a young incarnation of Spock on the Genesis Planet.

The whole gang surround Spock on Vulcan. Everyone who isn't Vulcan looks super happy about his cool new bathrobe.

The Search for Spock: tan.

I know what you're thinking: look at all the crisp 80s set lighting and solid greys! But people always forget just how beige the 80s was. At this point you know it's deliberate and not just a fluke of lighting or film quality.

TSFS says the Federation is tan.

Worth remembering that the American religious far right has successfully used Britain as an incubator for regressive movements before.

I think I can safely say it's a pretty moderate position that these fuckers should be shut down and chased back to the American shithole they crawled out of.

Citing my complete persistent inability to learn a foreign language as conclusive evidence that I'm the dumbest little bunny.

"Adam, I'm just going to interrupt you. No, I don't have anything to add, I just need to interrupt you."

Good morning everyone. It's me, the worst trans woman.

Poor Tony. All he ever wanted was to be the absolute monarch of *somewhere* he could rule with an iron fist. Is that too much to ask?

Uh oh.

Well, this explains why all my spells always turn out wrong.

As a rule, if you're making brown food it's a good idea to have non-brown things in or next to it.

Sorry I've barely been online, I've been busy being asleep.

Wow, it's almost as though I don't respect you and think you're an idiot.

Not in it together enough, if you ask me.

Fuck man, I didn't realise Marx failed to talk about chilling with the homies. I am now a hardcore ancap and I can't wait to work twenty-three hours every day.

Ffs. Most marginal seats are Labour-Reform contests because most seats total are Labour seats. That's what losing as a majority looks like.

A video link would probably back up your claim a lot better.

It's not the public losing faith in democracy around the world—it's politicians. Politicians who hate the demands of the working class and resent the idea that they're in any way beholden to them. We're lead by people who'd scrap elections if they thought they could get away with it.

Clearly this proves the public is desperate for Morbius to return to cinemas. The people demand Morb.

I suspect they see Question Time as their turf, considering how many dozens of times Farage and pals have been invited to talk uninterrupted for as long as they feel like.

I love the Flintstones and Woody Woodpecker and... uh, the Flintstones as much as anyone, but even accepting that they couldn't've predicted the success of TMNT a lot of cartoons of the 80s had cultural and commercial impacts far beyond their episode counts, even to this day.

Absolutely nuts that "sorrow" and "sorry" are unrelated words.
