My meagre contribution to Day Of Dredd. It has pride of place at the top of the stairs. #DayOfDredd

A framed signed print of the famous "GAZE INTO THE FIST OF DREDD" comic panel from Judge Dredd in 2000ad, by Brian Bolland.

My teacher brother has just informed me that his primary school kids now refer to anything shit or old fashioned as "Brexit". Which has made my morning.

A Happy #DayOfDredd to all who celebrate.

The album cover for 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band' by The Beatles, except the Fab Four and their cardboard friends have been replaced by Judge Dredd and his impressive gallery of allies and enemies. No, I'm not going to name all of them, and yes, while it is quite possible that the character you really like isn't in there, I make no apology for their absence. Batman, Predator, Alien and The Biker Mice From Mars are all missing because I wanted this to be a tribute to Rebellion.

Why do arseholes always think if the Allies hadn't defeated Hitler we'd all be speaking German? Did any of the countries Germany occupied take German as their first language? Did the defeated Axis powers end up speaking English?

Your regular reminder: If the Russians stop fighting, the war ends. If the Ukrainians stop fighting, their land will be occupied, their leaders will be killed, their history and language will be erased, their children will be kidnapped to serve Russia.

On this Breakaway day, our thoughts are with Commander John Koenig's teams on Moonbase Alpha. Today marks 27 years since the Moon left Earth's orbit, taking with it the last of the Eagles that hadn't yet exploded… It was Gerry and Sylvia Anderson's Space: 1999 (1975-1977).

Name a film you've seen 10+ times. There are many, and some of them are very obvious. But I'm going with this one because it's a hugely underrated musical but never leaves my top 5: It's Always Fair Weather.

@strangenewpod.com not sure if you guys picked up on Scotty's joke in the turbolift last week. Martin Quinn was often in a Scottish comedy sketch show called Burnistoun, and this is one of their most well-known sketches (sadly, no Martin Quinn actually in this one): youtube.com/watch?v=HbDn...

It’s a point that has been made before: These people are here without authorization only because the administration revoked it. It is as if Trump were somehow to strip citizenship from every Democrat.

I have watched a lot of Star Trek in my life. Every episode of TOS, TAS, TNG, DS9, DSC, PIC, and LOW. Most of VOY & ENT. All the movies, and so far, all of SNW and SFA. So I don't say this lightly: Level-Five Transporter Accident is the worst Star Trek I've ever seen. Awful. Terrible in every way.

Interesting that Jim Shannon was in the Belfast Telegraph this morning with the piece clipped below and now he has been charged with assaulting a woman

‘It grieves me that Donaldson possessed that Jekyll and Hyde character and I never saw it...’
Strangford MP on the disgraced former DUP leader
Belfast Telegraph17 Aug 2026KYLE FRAZER
When Jim Shannon (71) invited us to his office to conduct this interview, it was like stepping into a time machine with a room full of memories from his 41-year political career.

He was first elected to the former Newtownards Borough Council in May 1985, becoming a DUP councillor for the Peninsula ward, a role he held for 26 years.

At the same time, he joined the former Northern Ireland Forum for the two years that it was operational before the Good Friday Agreement, which led to the Northern Ireland Assembly, where he remained alongside the council until May 2010.

This pathetic faux-innocent “but it was before he was an MP”, when said by actual MPs, who should know the rules, is breathtaking. Any gift in the previous 12 months is potentially declarable. Stds commissioner can take into account Farage’s behaviour during the inquiry. 🧐
