Ok, hear me out. A Lord of the Rings remake, but with these two taking the One Ring to Mordor: "One Ring only, Vasily."

Film you've watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Star Trek, Star Wars, LOTR, Marvel, Disney, or Ghibli. This one‘s not Star Wars, but it did inspire some of it :-)

A scene from Peter Greenaway‘s "The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and Her Lover". No, not THAT scene.

It should be safe from friendly fire if it strays over the D-Day beaches, though.

If you ask me, anyone who wants to create Bentham’s Panopticon can get stuffed.

"A raccoon that is used as a deterrent"? "Lemon-themed city"? The first L in LLM stands for "loony", it seems.

The Google AI Overview for the search term "lemon raccoon" goes like this:

A "lemon raccoon" can refer to an actual raccoon that eats fruit, including lemons, or it can describe a raccoon that is used as a deterrent because it dislikes the scent of lemons. The term can also be used in AI-generated content, such as an animation of a raccoon causing chaos in a lemon-themed city

Never mind airplanes you'd accept as a bribe. What about ones you'd regard as a threat?

You've been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who is coming to save you?

Renewed #ProofOfCat with Paddy showing off his teeth and whiskers to fine effect

Paddy, a black and white cat with a very fluffy tummy, yawns mightily as he snoozes the day away after another hard night’s patrolling.

Refreshing my #proofofcat with some excellent fluffy-tummy action from Paddy.

Paddy, a black-and-white cat, lies on his back with all four paws in the air, showing his fluffy white tummy. The paws are rather grubby because he‘s just come in from his nightly patrol, having walked 7.5 kilometres.
