It sounds like the men who raped her knew who she was and did it because she’s a Democrat running for office, in case you don’t want to read a graphic account of a sexual assault.

Just realised that the scene in Nolan's Odyssey with the Greeks waiting inside the half-sunken horse statue mirrors the scene from Dunkirk with the British soldiers hiding inside the grounded trawler.

Fuck Google for forcibly replacing Google Assistant (what it could do it did well and reliably) with Gemini on Android phones. What a downgrade.

There are so many people, so many, that love film and want to dedicate their whole lives to making films, in front of the camera, behind it, in editing suites and casting rooms and makeup trailers. And that these locusts can come in and just devour the industry, take it from us all, is devastating.

"The route to the New Old Trafford is now more intertwined with the financial firepower of INEOS. They’d need to stump up at least £1.6bn to take the majority of votes and provide some equity for the new stadium build. If they wanted to own the club outright that figure is closer to £3.5bn."

"For it to make financial sense for INEOS to pay off or refinance the LBO debt they will need to have a majority ownership of the club so they get an outsized benefit from any improved club valuation." #MUFC

That too, which is why I now mostly bother with limited series in terms of Netflix originals or now-finished shows licensed from other networks.

I don't know why I keep persisting with these Netflix shows. How many times must a show start in a promising way before sharply falling off a cliff after episode two for me to learn?

I once described Jacob Rees-Mogg as implausibly irritating and not a real person (what 12 year old child gets interviewed about their 8 bank accounts in the back of a Rolls Royce?). Yet Tucker Carlson made him look normal and somewhat reasonable during that interview. Hate where we've ended up.

Can't wait for the Saturday after next. Drive up to the mountains for an annual apple festival (I'm talking pies, jams, juices, liquor, cider, preserves, etc.) followed by a return to Limassol for the premier of a week-long short festival festival. The two always coincide.

Can't tell if this is him exerting pressure on the regulator(s) in order to avoid this scenario from happening or pre-emptively expressing regret because of its high likelihood to shield himself from any blowback.
Andy Burnham has said he would be “really concerned” to lose Manchester City’s owners as a result of the club being found guilty of more than 100 breaches of Premier League rules

This notion of bigoted beliefs being a protected characteristic like gender or race is just absolutely barmy. Those of us who’ve experienced genuine discrimination for who we are know there’s no comparison, and the political and legal collusion on this stuff is disastrous.

Dear City fans, Your club has been found guilty of 114 charges. Not if. Not maybe. Not possibly. Guilty on 114 of 115 charges. Period. Full Stop. You didn't break the law yourself and as a fellow football fan, I can see how and why you defended your club. It's natural. But that time is over.

These things "work" by hoovering up your data. Your messages? Your emails and documents? Every click and mouse move you make? (Ever clicked yes to the "Enable telemetry" option?) You are two things to them: a source of data for their data soup, and a customer to sell it all back to.
