In the last 10 years, the licence fee has only gone up by £34.50/year. In the same time, for the same deal (HD, no ads), Netflix has gone up by almost double that, £67.08/year. And that’s just for Netflix, not the ENTIRE BBC.

it feels quite bad that it's basically impossible to argue that much of the modern right in the west has become both entirely intellectually shallow and deeply, fundamentally morally corrupt without sounding like a tedious teenage tankie, because it is.....the factual truth

The words "Scold" (to tell off) & "Scald" (to burn with steam) have the same original root word - the nordic "Skald" (bard or poet)

Those who were reprimanded by a Skald (scolded) were said to go red & recoil as though burned (scalded)

It definitely throws you in without prep. I went back and rewatched it after episode 2 or 3 and it was clearer.

Impossible to disagree with a single word that Ben Rhodes (Obama era NSC official) is saying here:

America’s intervention in Iran, Feb-April 2026

Viral photo from some years back of a man nonchalantly mowing his yard with a tornado on the horizon .

How it feels doing literally any task right now.

"If you don't put that gun away and stop this stupid nonsense, the court of Enquiry on this'll give you such a pranging, you'll be lucky if you end up wearing the uniform of a bloody toilet attendant."

“Because fanaticism and ignorance is forever busy, and needs feeding.”

INHERIT THE WIND (1960)

One of the best courtroom drama movies ever made.

I can’t stop thinking about the scene in THREADS where a pub TV is broadcasting news about the US doing a coup in Iran that leads to nuclear war while everyone just goes about their business like normal

Jake Gyllenhaal, a white man with brown hair and eyes, staring wide eyed and blankly into space. He is sitting at the wheel of a dark car at night with his lips pressed together. He looks extremely disturbed and disassociated

Anyone else having trouble focusing today thanks to the global crisis and the looming threat of nuclear annihilation?

Just me? Surely not.

i drew this a couple years ago to vent about the state of things and people said i was "doomposting" but honestly things haven't gotten any better so the feeling remains

The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a "whole civilization" — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making and had no plan and no strategy for how to end it.

This is abhorrent, and the American people do not support this.

Martin Landau as an aged Bela Lugosi was one of the best bits of biopic casting ever.

A madman has control of the most powerful military in the history of the world and the leaders of his party are too afraid to say or do anything to stop him.

The President of the United States threatened to wipe out an entire civilization and Republicans are doing “that’s not what he meant” hits on the networks

This can’t be happening.

Armageddon is terrible, but our only other option was diversity trainings at work.

"Alright, let's shoot this fucker!"

You can still be shocked can't you, even after years of this shit. That sentence chilled me to my bones. To see an American president say that. To see him boast about it.

In the 10 years I ran @prideinstem.bsky.social, I had to point out to so many organizations just how anti-science the professional transphobes are. In some cases, those very organizations rejected that very evidence and doubled down on the hate, like "Sense" About Science. 🔭🧪

Naomi wolf tweeting “Call me ill-informed, I was an English major, but -- what is the light source here?” About the Artemis images of the far side of the moon

Breaking news: conspiracy theorist about to discover the Sun!!

I am so deeply enjoying the Artemis moon mission — watching For All Mankind makes me extremely tense about the dangers of space flight, but the images and videos are so beautiful. The Romantic poets used to talk about the awesome power of the sublime, and that’s what we are experiencing
