My favourite was the flying 'Spinner' in 'Blade Runner', these actually seemed usable... but no way would I put a thumb around a wheel, let alone into one; hit something solid and you've broken the thumb.

My favourite ever Bond car, plus TD was a dead-ringer for a UK-SIS (Mi6) lad I met on a survival course. This guy was a Londoner, but could have been Dalton's twin... I was actually at this photo shoot in Brighton.

And the original of this photo got me in trouble on Social Media. Oddly, when I photoshopped a chemical cloud at our version of Fort Detrick? I was fine. Go figure, eh?

Sorry for this, but this is a garroting, 100%. You can see where it was re-applied as he fought for his shitty Life. I wish I didn't know this, but it's unmistakable.

My thoughts exactly. The Royal Navy intercepts, boards and seizes drug cargos routinely - the drugs are put up as evidence in court. Trump was LYING. It's all he does.

The AI fucked the name up, but Trump's basically a Pirate who's been in the sun too long. He's breaking International Maritime Law and the people boarding that tanker? They're going to fucking jail. For a senile Pedophile. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cy...

Go Ogle's AI enraged me - forget drowning the kids, this is PERSONAL! (Just in case; MvS was Joubert in 'Three Days of the Condor')

Whilst closing US bases here is playing into Putin's hands? They'll be used as FOBs if he goes "Full Ghengis" and Trump is simply the Russian VP. What choice do we have?

Well, at least we've eroded trust in Human sources. Books will become currency again, if only among the wealthy and the resistance. FYI? Max von Sydow was NOT in 'Jackal'.

Max von Sydow played Joubert in Three Days of the Condor. AI systems will erode our trust in Human sources and in decades, books will become the preserve of A: The Mega Fucking Wealthy and B: The Resistance. At least there's consistency in our failures.

Now Putin's published his National Security Strategy, how long before US Embassies are displaying signs like this? US Bases in the EU/UK have to be shut down - they'll be FOBs for Putin in any future escalation, so we need more reliable tenants. ANYONE at this point.

Putin's National Security Strategy's out and it's clear there's no point retaining US bases on UK/EU soil. They'll be used as FOBs by Putin in any major escalation anyway...
