Continuing my batfilm watch, why did Val Kilmer's batman have nipples on his suit?

I can’t think of a better analogy for America than the Epstein files. A bunch of files about numerous men raping/SAing girls and the only person in prison is a woman.

It's Christmas Eve Eve, time to start the Batman marathon I've been promising myself.

I've started with #Batman from 1989, which iirc was the first film to be given a 12 rating in the UK.

Why doesn't #Clue have "murderous" as an option?

There is a vast amount of rain coming out of the sky. Rivers near me are full. This is one of the driest parts of the country and it's sodden.

Anglian Water are still going to claim we're in a drought when they've got the November figures. I can picture it now.

My Mum when chatting about her youth very occasionally mentions that before she met my father she shared a flat with a band from NZ in the early 70s that were big in NZ and trying to make it big in the UK.

I finally got around to asking her what they were called and she says it was The Fourmyula.

This ruling is a joke.

PPE Medpro will go bankrupt and the Government won't get a penny.

Michelle Mone should have to pay the £122m personally.

RT if you want to see her pay it all back.

Maybe someone needs to explain to Ms Peaty that lots of brown and black and Muslim people gave their lives in the fight against fascism in WW2 and that many of the people putting the flags up are fascists targeting such people.

Regarding all of these rumours about #Trump being #dead

His team is going to have to wheel him in front of a camera at some point soon, or the rumours are just going to escalate.

He's Schrödinger's president right now. Dead or Alive - we need to observe him to know which

Bad start to the week. I got sidelined on some important work today because my manager failed to take in to account my visual impairment when setting it up.

I am pretty upset. I know it wasn't deliberate, it was just thoughtless, but being sidelined for your disability is bloody horrible.

I'm just tired of it, you know? The violence and misogyny.

So many men will shout "not all men!" when you post something like this and then get horribly offended when you say "yes, but it's usually men though, isn't it".

Why didn't anyone tell me Project Hail Mary was so good?

I am about half way through it and am eating it up at every possible opportunity.

I even got up early to get some quality reading time in before my family wakes up

I sent our 18 year old to the taverna next door to book a table for this evening. He was gone for about half an hour because they decided that he needed feeding.
