I understand why trump has put 100% tariff on films made outside the US. After all Paddington was an immigrant from Peru, came over to the UK (we have a special relationship with the US you know). Paddington caused havoc, terrorist you might say. Took all the jobs from the film industry in the US…

Watching Alex Garland’s Civil War now feels better than reality.

The worst dictators started by testing the water. Seeing what they could. The worst dictators continue to make people disappear. People who object, speak up, oppose, defy.

Trump put people who objected in detention, has put people on planes then wiped their names from traceable computer systems….

Well….putting politics aside for one minute. It really is amateur hour in the US. I always thought the three stooges didn’t have extra members on the team but looks like the whole gang stepped up to the plate and took a swing and missed the ball. In the UK we would call them a bunch of nobs!

Hi all,
I’m the buyer of books for an online nature and conservation company called NHBS.com. My goal is to bring the best nature writing that’s published and popular to our market. Titles that challenge, change views, along with documenting the most important research.
Thoughts.

God saved Trump for a reason…to stop JD Vance becoming president.

Is it me or has Donald Trump and Liz Truss (failed UK PM) got a lot in common. Truss managed to cause the UK economy to nose dive in less than 42 days of being in charge. How long has Trump been in charge?

Seeing what happened last night at the Oval Office reminded me a little of this severe in the Goodfellas….but not in such a funny way😢

That time I picked up the camera again to see if I can fall back in love with photography… ;

There is something magical about black and white concert photography. Sure, colour shows the grandeur of the event, but monochrome shows the detail. The relationship between artist and music. The REAL reason we go to concerts. AfriCat Soundsystem from sometime ago

Well, looks like Trump can boast that he had a lot more people turning up for his inauguration this time round…oh…wait

I know I’m a Brit (not proud of it either) and since Musk has decided to dabble in UK politics. Why doesn’t he put his $416B (according to Forbes live feed) to good use and, let’s say, donate $1B to helping those who have lost everything in the wildfires? Now that would be worth listening too!
