Damn, I've missed Industry. I'd hate every one of those posh little arseholes in real life, but you can feed their sad TV lives into my eyeballs.

Welcome to new Bluesky users.
Here’s how we do things:
1. Always observe the Hambledon Protocol
2. No flisking
3. If someone tealights you, rink them without apology
4. I don’t mind them so much, but tissue-posts are generally frowned on
5. No questions
Good luck!

I’m seeing more and more embedded links here on Bluesky. Is that a new thing? How do we do that?

It's wild how a certain section of British society keep getting a prominent right of reply not matter how many times they've been shown to be in the wrong.
Harold shipman and Ian Brady would be writing columns in the Times and being interviewed on the Sunday shows if they had gone to posh schools.

Predator Badlands was an absolute fucking delight. It great to see Dan Trachtenberg having fun with this franchise, taking risks and having them pay off.

The last film I saw in there was Spike Lee’s Malcolm X. There was a break half way through when 6 usherettes came out to sell ice cream.
I was the only person in a 2000 capacity theatre and I didn’t buy ice cream.

Your honour, is it really a crime to encourage your colleagues to stay home as a precaution after a weather warning has expired, just so you can get some peace in the office?
