126 years ago today the most stylish painter in history was born.

She was called Tamara de Lempicka and everything about her life and art embodied the spirit of the 1920s.

If you like Art Deco, you'll love Tamara de Lempicka...

Creating a society of fearful, inauthentic people won’t yield a more “inclusive,” peaceful society.

People who use harassment and censorship to disappear what they dislike haven’t learned the value of accepting reality—even when you dislike it.

Why does Ben Affleck not do more commentary tracks? Listening to him absolutely roast his own movie is glorious.

If you listen to anything day, let it be this. The poignant words from @PatricKielty closing the @RTELateLateShow. Listen, hear them. From a man who has known war, its tue impact and consequences.

I echo with the entrancing apt words of Seamus Heaney:

With the Rugby World Cup in full flow, let us not forget how former Ireland international, Tommy Bowe, provided the greatest moment in Irish TV history.

[The Blindboy Podcast @bbboatclub]

Call me mad. But I think that British army terrorists receiving amnesty for murder is more worthy of Irish newspaper outrage columns than a load of pissed 20 year olds singing up the Ra at a festival for craic

Each viewing, pick a different one of the 8 kids to watch. It's a laugh riot every time! 😂

"Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there-on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot.

Our posturings, our imagined self-importance, the delusion that we have some privileged position in the Universe, are challenged by this point of pale light. Our planet is a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark. In our obscurity, in all this vastness, there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves.

The Earth is the only world known so far to harbor life. There is nowhere else, at least in the near future, to which our species could migrate. Visit, yes. Settle, not yet. Like it or not, for the moment the Earth is where we make our stand.

It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience. There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another, and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known"

russia is like the twin peaks of international stories, enjoy the vibe and the theatrics and if you need to "understand what's happening" you're watching it wrong

Nobody hated clichés as intensely, and as thoughtfully, as Martin Amis. I particularly like his attack on the trendy catchphrases of 2007. That all of them now sound utterly dead makes his point.

[Roy Keane's Film Reviews @roykeanereviews]

“First half it was a completely different prospect and you think it’s a fairly standard film with Clooney and Tarantino or whatever. Then they tweak tactics at half time and it’s an absolute game changer bringing Hayek into the mix. Massive decision from the manager. Massive.”

Kids are starving, you can't see a doctor, the trains aren't running, people can't afford to pay the bills & the rivers are dying but it's all going to be okay cause a multimillionaire is wearing a sparkly hat & a fancy bath mat.
Fucking hell
