Sometimes the behaviour of this government is so stupid I feel like I've been punched in the guts: WHY ARE WE CHARGING AMERICAN SCIENTISTS ANY VISA FEE AT ALL TO COME HERE TO WORK, just poach every single one of those people asap & bank the results ffs

Fuck Farage. Fuck the Right Wing. Fuck the billionaire controlled media who need us at each other's throats, so we don't cotton on to who the real problem is.

I only knew Hulk Hogan from an episode of the 'The A-Team'

Murdoch vs Trump. Alien vs Predator. No matter who wins, we all still lose.

The two sides of football on display this week. The response to Jota is heart warming. The Partey stuff makes me want to give up my support for Arsenal.

So nice to see a Test match go the full five days. Good entertainment from India and England.

Suspect a lot of 1s today.

Prefer a 5/6 to a 1.

Captain America Brave New, World is crazy fun. Just a shame about the poor CGI.

Michael @mpbutler71.bsky.social · May 31

So glad I'd avoided spoilers. Doctor Who was mad, crazy, off the wall and absolutely brilliant.

Hopefully the next series isn't too many years away.

Not sure I understood tonight's Doctor Who even after the exposition but it was a lot of fun.

With five day tests finishing in 3 days, is it time to introduce a third innings? #cricket #engzim

When the BBC did the deal with Disney for Doctor Who, they should have asked to show Andor in return. It deserves a proper audience.

Loving Doctor Who. RTD with no fucks left to give. Totally wrong footed me in the episode but the change of direction was wonderful to see.

The best kind of Doctor Who this week, fun, silly and a bit of social commentary. RTD clearly enjoying himself.

With his car based tariffs, is Trump saying mass public transport is the future? Or is he just a griefer.

The good thing about my Bluesky follow list is I see the piss takes of Marvel announcement but not the actual announcement details

Face to Face with Paul Eddington, fascinating and remarkable. Need more of these kind of interviews on TV. Off camera interviewer, no silly voice overs. Just great stories and insight.

Michael @mpbutler71.bsky.social · Mar 16

There is only a handful of decent TOS stories, a few more in TNG and DS9. So all this Star Trek isn't as good as it was is kind of fan blindness that takes all the fun out of TV and sets impossible goals.

#StarTrek is sailing in choppy waters following the disappointing Section 31. Does the franchise need a spell in dry dock? Our thoughts:

Star Trek | After the disappointment of Section 31, does the franchise need shore leave?

It's a crying shame that 'Moonlighting' isn't available to watch anywhere in the UK.

Michael @mpbutler71.bsky.social · Mar 8

Watching 'Daredevil Born Again', first 15 minutes in and reminded why I stopped watching the original series. Far too violent for my tastes

Michael @mpbutler71.bsky.social · Mar 1

Have the French asked for the 'Statue of Liberty' to be returned yet?

Michael @mpbutler71.bsky.social · Feb 28

America, French fry eating surrender monkeys.

Michael @mpbutler71.bsky.social · Feb 28

Thank god. #totp bluesky is here. Every thing else is too depressing.
