Recorded Dune (1984) from TV in late 1988 and watched it obsessively that (Australian) summer, age 12. That's at least the earliest TV/movie crush I can remember.

"The #1 movie from when you were 10 years old is how your 2026 is going to go." I say we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

Not sure if the single quote marks here mean it's actually being quoted, or the headline writer is hedging their own assertion. But I can say with near total confidence that this will not be recorded as the "storm of the century".

Wet spots on bench - solved. I feel like fucking MacGyver when the stuff I have in my bag solves an obvious problem. It also vindicates me when most of my male friends have thought it weird that I'd carry a bag everywhere I go.

I've been wanting to accessorise with a bowling ballbag since 1999. Why all this Gen Z hate?

This is what it feels like they are creating, while getting high on their own supply

Just because this is a dumb idea right now doesn't mean we should dismiss it out of hand. The reward of honest labour in the fields has been known to do wonders for former oligarchs and despots who have had their wealth and power taken away from them.

As soon as you remove the noise by looking at the moving average, the times to post good news become very hard to find. I guess Tim's lack of math skills or object permanence serve him rather well.

I should also add, this is not the dumbest thing I've heard in the last 24 hours. That honour goes to this...

Roberts: "President Trump. I demand that you follow the rules! That way I can personally approve all your actions and still play golf with my friends rather than have you throw them in jail. Is this how you like to be sucked off, sir?"

I always worry that my over familiarity with the minutia of the day-to-day horror/stupidity of the disintegration of the last fragments of firewall put in place in the 1930s to preventing this from happing makes me a real downer to be around.

I feel dirty just knowing Tucker Carlson was within 1000km of me, let alone endorsing our local lunatic billionaires. We'll probably elect our own fascists just as Trump is being dragged off his golf cart and beaten to death by mobs of angry liberals, mad that their European wines cost too much

These things are always a load of shit, but it still annoys me that the social democrat Greens and I are supposedly so closely aligned. It's basically, "Here's you on a grid where the decision space ranges from fascism to a slightly kinder form of capitalism. 1/3

No wonder my state media broadcaster hedged on free speech issues. We're about to lose the right to object to what's coming if we don't agree to keep our "joint operations" going. Australia is to SE Asia what Israel is to the Middle East. They ain't giving up our strategic position vis-a-vis China.

What is this mealy mouthed bullshit. I know my national broadcaster has become unofficial state media. But seriously‽ Could the US see attacks on free speech? Yes! Why pose that question when it's already happening??
