When people say “men written by Lana Del Rey” and it’s some twink in a suit…baby this is the aesthetic…this is Off To The Races

people will really look you in the eye and say food in the UK is bad

That style of nose job is so mid-20th century. Another good example of it is Joel Grey

Sissy Spacek was unrecognizable in 1968. Somewhat ironically she was homecoming queen, Carrie considered. (Daily Mail)

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

In the era of #ArtificialIntelligence, when human dignity is threatened by new forms of dehumanization, ours is the pressing duty to remain profoundly human. We must lovingly safeguard the grandeur of humanity bestowed upon us and revealed in its fullness in Christ, the splendor of which no machine can ever replace. #MagnificaHumanitas

@Cibolan2000 @echetus So fascinating to see Above Bar described as 'suburban' when it's now the city centre!

[Joyce Carol Oates @JoyceCarolOates]

not sure if anyone is at Bluesky. when I visit the site all is calm, unchanging; I have not had a single new follower in many months; exchanges are always interesting & intelligent but relatively few. Bluesky exudes the air of an upscale mall, beautifully maintained, hushed.
one will likely not be mobbed or mugged here but one will likely not feel a quickening of the heart, a jab of adrenaline. Twitter may be a "cesspool"-- at least in some quarters--but I think of it as lively like the old Madison Square Garden: raucous, unpredictable, obnoxious, good fun, surprises.

Miriam Margolyes (85 today) turns up in the weirdest places. Here she is getting decked by Steve Martin in Little Shop of Horrors (1986)
Then she gets her revenge, tossing Arnold Schwarzenegger around like a rag doll in End of Days (1999).

Fact check. Rupert Lowe was chairman of Southampton between 1996- 2009 and they never played Wigan in that time.

As the tales go, Druids would often meet in woodland groves. Nature was very much their temple. The building is to create continuity with that. The Senedd Members are the roots of the tree; of Wales itself and its memory, if you wish.

He's the first person voted off Strictly in 2030.

British TV commercial in 1986: Child running through a tropical island to a temple designed by HR Giger. Shot on 35mm at magic hour, directed by Ridley Scott.

British TV commercial in 2026: Man in a hoodie in a grey kitchen turns into a pile of Mini-Eggs. Slogan: “Find Your Yes”

If you’re wondering why Lewisham got Labour out in such spectacular style.

[Warner Bros. Clockwork @clockwork_wb]

For Immediate Release: KEN RUSSELL’S THE DEVILS.

So we’re all on the same page, this is the definitive — and only — director’s cut of Ken Russell’s masterpiece.

Heartbroken and disappointed to see that @UniofHerts is removing most of its remaining Humanities undergrad courses. I chose Herts in 2012 because it was the only place I could study multiple humanities. I’ve stayed for my MA and now PhD because of the amazing staff. A travesty.
