How is this repeatedly made into a policy issue - by *all* parties - when the blunt fact of the matter is that grown adults who are obliged to pay for their own education, and relentlessly pursued to repay their loans, should be able to study whatever the fuck they want.

What a coincidence. I just finished listening to the latest @scarredforlife.bsky.social episode which talks about the effect of Ghostwatch on a 10-year-old’s mind podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s...

I’ll be honest, I can’t see RDJ in the role, but it really needed someone with more charisma than MW. I was thinking maybe Jon Hamm, if he does it as a meaner Don Draper?

In addition to being a first rate production designer and concept artist, Ron Cobb turned out some banger political cartoons in the Nixon era.

Two Asian farmers look up from the crater marked field they're working in to see the shadow of a bomber passing overhead, one farmer remarks "They're having problems with their economy again."

@talk90stome.bsky.social become a favourite listen. If you’re worried it’s all “Let’s Remember Oasis”, it’s much wider reaching and reminds just how eclectic a decade it was. This episode in particular is a delight (though also check out the ep on George Michael)

A rare one for @smershpod.com in that it’s not a bad film but HOW DID IT COST THAT MUCH?!? There’s a plethora of makers of cosy Sunday crime dramas wondering if they’ve been severely undercharging

#SpaceApeCinema tonight at 1AM E, we never really take in sightseeing tours enough when we go to Mexico every month. This time we're taking in some real culture at the Museum of Guanajuato, and Blue Demon and Mil Mascaras (and El Santo) are our tour guides. Join us for THE MUMMIES OF GUANAJUATO.

Mil Mascaras and Blue Demon in THE MUMMIES OF GUANAJUATO. Mil Mascaras wears a magenta mask with yellow patterned features around the eyes and mouth. He wears only tiger striped wrestling trunks. Blue Demon wears a shirt and jeans.
