Spinal Tap at 41: Still the greatest, most insightful film about music ever made
This Is Spinal Tap tells the story of every band thatβs existed, but one that is rarely (if ever) presented with an adequate level of embarrassment.
#SpinalTap gets closer to the reality of the rock n roll lifestyle than other pics, says @samuelscott.bsky.social:
"Inflated egos trying to seem down to earth, empty gigs, childish tensions, filthy jokes. The trudging on through critical disdain, deaths and the sin of being out of fashion."

Celebrating the ridiculous and genius cinematic spectacle of Pink Floyd at Pompeii
One of the best ever music films is back in cinemas, looking and sounding better than ever.
"The film tiptoes the edge of becoming a Spinal Tap Stonehenge moment. Is it too silly? Sure it is, but then the performances are so good, the silliness becomes vital to the whole."
Nice one @samuelscott.bsky.social. Even more pumped now to see this at IMAX tonight...

People should listen to this. Such a sensible conversation between an American Jewish man and an American Palestinian man. Not all humans are fuckheads. And Mo is one of the best shows streaming right now. So funny, so moving.

When the US govt is deporting residents because of political protest we have crossed the rubicon. Itβs no longer βwhat if they become an authoritarian regime with no regard for due process or human rights.β Youβve arrived America, congrats morans.

Seymour openly tells people working in the ministries that his goal is make them so shit they can be shutdown. Of course he isnβt going to βfixβ anything. Thats the opposite of his plan.

This graph of water investment in Wellington over the past 20 years is very instructive. You can see for yourself which mayors were in power when water investment dropped or stagnated and how the current mayor and council have vastly increased water investment. The facts speak for themselves.

RNZ: Simeon Brown reveals $1.6 billion boost for pothole fund
Reality: That money was taken from road maintenance funds which were mainly used to fix potholes
RNZ: Government announces $1.3 billion crackdown on drink drivers
Greater Auckland: The road policing budget has actually gone down
NZ Herald: 50 more doctors and nurses funded to fill critical gaps
Newsroom: the money for the doctors and nurses is taken from cuts elsewhere in Health NZ's budget
the government has found one weird trick for getting good headlines without actually spending any money: just pillage an existing budget and rename it '*insert bad thing here* annihilation fund'. It's now worked on fixing potholes, a drink-driving 'crackdown', and yesterday new doctors and nurses
