If you like #Reacher, you'll love #Neagley

TIL that the reason that Monopoly sucks to play for most people is that it was invented to highlight the pitfalls of extreme capitalism. It was *designed* to teach people the woes of monopolies. And yet, like the real world, we unquestioningly accept late-stage capitalism as a fait accompli.

#TheGentlemen Season 2. Excellent. All Guy Ritchie's talent went into this one, which explains why #InTheGrey is little more than a waste of some decent talent. Brought some style, but left the substance at home. Mr Ritchie is a little hit and miss recently.

#Mayday - aka Deadpool Goes To Russia - would be a very serviceable thriller if not for inexplicably featuring Ryan Reynolds. More than once I said out loud "Why is Kenneth Brannagh in this?" #FilmReview

If it turns out that Lindsey Graham spoke to Mitch McConnell for twenty minutes, after which Lindsey dies and Mitch makes a miraculous recovery, is Mitch then officially an energy vampire?

For those new to #FIFA, the fact that the last 3 hosts include Russia, Qatar, and the USA, should tell you all you need to know about how deep the corruption flows in all 4 of those orgs / countries.

What I imagine is under John Travolta's beret;

I think everyone who's ever said anything bad about JD Vance needs to apologies. He's delivered Hungary from authoritarianism. He deserves a Nobel Prize 😉

Can we normalise calling it the Trump Regime? They are no longer 'administrating' anything. They are destroying systems, not managing them. They are ruling by royal decree.

Feels like high time the 2nd Amendment wangs should put up or shut up.

Haven't seen this talked about, so.... Trump *really* liked Ukraine's postponement of elections during wartime. So, with his poll numbers in the gutter - along with his morals, character, etc, etc - a nice war gives him the pretext to cancel the midterms, as well as distracting from Epstein et al.

The US is going to run Venezuela? Last I checked, the US couldn't run - *checks notes* - THE US!?

I think the font you're looking for is Comic Sans.

How come, after all this time, Apple has great hardware but atrocious software? The Apple TV website is a dumpster fire. It lacks so many features one would expect, and shits itself 50% of the time. Baffling.

It's the age old question; which came first? A crow's caw, or the reversing buzzer of an Amazon delivery van?

Remember this guy - General Gogol - from the early James Bond movies? Always wanging on about how the West was decadent and corrupt? Well, he had a point.

Rhinocock just dropped.

Thinking about Gavrilo Princip, and what this assassination could trigger. I hope America can remain rational, but this feels like all Trump needs to take the next big step.

Me reading reports about two-foot long rats:

What are the odds of him creating the Trump Peace Prize, and then awarding it to himself?

Terrence Stamp's (probable) last words; "You tell Him. You tell God I'm coming. Tell Him I'm fucking coming!!!" RIP

Maxwell "commits suicide" in 3... 2... 1... www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Scotland becomes the latest in a long line that has Trump "in" them against their wishes.

If you are anti-Brexit and pro EU and want to find some extra followers. RT and reply to this post and add each other. No fun speaking to yourself.

Fuck.

Absolutely

Today's success was measured in the number of new ways I've discovered for things not to work. I am that many things closer to finding the way that does work. That's how that works, right?
