@nytimes.com Stop referring to the UK as Britain - it holds no meaning - You may feel its a corrective for anachronistic hubris but Britain does not exist. You have Great Britain - as opposed to little Britain (Brittany) or the British Isles (inc. Ireland) but the correct word is probably the UK

@therestpolitics.bsky.social the death of Gene Hackman draws our attention to Lex Lother, Superman's arch rival. His caricature criminal persona is truly one for our times, containing elements of Musk & Trump. Zelensky's courage even make him somewhat Supermanish dcau.fandom.com/wiki/Lex_Lut...

yes partially good news that hopefully the exterior will be mainly preserved like the pub on Plymouth Grove in Manchester that became a Chinese restaurant but lost its interiors
