@kcadventurers Not sure how often you check here, but I can't send pictures to you via Tumblr, so (from 1977):

BREAKING: trump is having a temper tantrum, ending ALL trade negotiations with Canada.

He's butthurt that they aired an ad of President Reagan that shows how dumb trump's tariffs are.

It's VERY effective.
Be a shame if it went viral. 🇺🇲🇨🇦

@gunsnrosesgirl3 It really depends how you define 'God'; I don't believe in the anthropomorphic idea, but the idea that there's something in the universe (or beyond it/or that *is* it) that might have a kind of consciousness, is more palatable to me.

@RodneyMarshall1 Yes, I remember a George & Mildred episode where posh neighbour Jeffry Fourmile isn't even sure they have ITV on the set.

@TennisBlogger1 @espn Nothing to do with her being the highest ranking American left in the draw, I'm sure. In the meantime, over here in the UK we have to put up with the BBC's obsession with British players.

Senate Republicans just sold out the sick and the hungry to cut taxes for the rich and the powerful.

What would Jesus do about this “Big Beautiful Bill”?

I think he would flip over the tables of injustice and call on us to do the same.

@TalkingPicsTV Lisa Daniely volunteered in the Oxfam Bookshop in central Brighton towards the end of her life (early 2000s). I worked alongside her; she was still sharp as a tack.

@JB_III I think Stan may be rewriting history a little, or simply benefitting from hindsight. I much preferred Gwen, and as both characters were established she (Gwen) was depicted as more serious, more reliable - and just 'nicer'. MJ was transformed following Gwen's death.

@the_questmaster Yes, I thought that was likely, but with my memory...

It's exactly 20 years today since #DoctorWho returned to BBC One. But how did it happen? My book The Long Game tells the story of how the show went from the TV Movie in May 1996 to a full recommission in September 2003, and is available now from Ten Acre:

@PrettyGonzo @LongIslandBleue @HollywoodYeste1 @alemogolloart Ah, yes! Well, they're all beautiful.

[Tim Pieraccini @tjpieraccini]

@LongIslandBleue @PrettyGonzo @HollywoodYeste1 @alemogolloart I think they *might* mean the last one in the set of nine, which I'd guess is Lollobrigida...?

The inability to react to climate change and the rising co2 levels will go down as the biggest mistake and disaster ever in the history of human beings. It’s going to be far more catastrophic than even the two world wars put together

@docoho @Dylandoeswho @call_me_kenneth @ElliottMair I'm a little disturbed by the amount of negativity towards Victoria - and I'm only halfway through. Glad to see Whitaker's stories doing well, though.

[Joey @docoho]

Monsters! Bases Under Siege! Evil Dictators! Intransigent Base Commanders! Joe, @Dylandoeswho @call_me_kenneth & @ElliottMair tackle a classic season and see how it holds up with a modern eye...

The stupid joke about 'he always leaves the brakes on'. It makes no sense, even if Romana 1 *hadn't* landed the TARDIS according to the manual and it *still* made the sound.

What are people's minor #DoctorWho nitpicks?

Like one thing in a scene, you hate that you'd want to get rid of, shoot some ideas over
