Is this actually something that can happen in this government though, or just more hot air? Until Keith unironically adopts it as a manifesto promise ofc.

Promising you will be no better or different than the other team is a pretty unique strategy, at least. Normally they would at least SAY they're going to do good things and then we'd have to argue about whether they're telling the truth and whether the differences are big enough if so. Not this time baybee!

It's just the business school bit about why the two hardware stores end up next door to each other on the high street.

Ricky Gervais Netflix review. Imagine Bernard Manning on stage for 90 minutes telling the most extreme, cruel racist and sexist jokes imaginable and then cackling and explaining he’s doing it ironically

gently caress me I also had to sit through thirty minutes of it before I put headphones in and read a book. An absolute opening barrage of "poo poo you might have read in the Express at any time in the last thirty years".

Snyder's Fountainhead will be the horniest movie ever made and instead of Libertarians it will produce a plague of people who literally want to gently caress buildings.

Lemurtron posted:

There is some sage advice I read on this forum about watching scifi shows, which is watch them, all of them, yes even the crap episodes, what else are you going to do with your time? If nerds keep banging on about B5 or Trek or the Expanse, there's usually a good reason.

We've been rewatching (remastered) TOS and TNG for the umpteenth time then went on to watch (1 episode a day): DS9 followed by B5 followed by Farscape, which were all new to us or had seen the odd episode decades ago. That's a hell of a run of great classic scifi with a decent mix of episodic and serialised story lines. There's also some meta enjoyment from observing the evolution in the visuals as they progress from 100% physical/optical to increasingly realistic CG, B5 in particular shows just how quickly things were changing back then.

I'm both kicking myself for not having watched them earlier but also thanking myself that I didn't because being able to watch them in HD, with no skipped or missing episodes, and a better head on my shoulders I can now appreciate them far better than catching the odd episode on the family TV.

I'd have totally missed out if I skipped the first two seasons of DS9 as some people advised; they're a little cheap but overall still a great watch. Conversely, the first season of TNG is so bad that it's completely put me off watching.

Mega Comrade posted:

Season 1 of TNG is notoriously poor. There are like 2 episodes worth your time.

What happened between season 1 and 2 I have no idea.

S1 of DS9 is also notorious though, it just turns out that one's notorious for having some silly hopscotch scenes and the other's notorious for having Picard visit the planet of the superpredators.

e: Zack Snyder ofc hasn't directed a superhero film since 2017.

I didn't realise for a while that that was completely by accident.

300 is absolutely meant to be funny, this is the impact of po-faced internet commenters with youtube brain who've convinced themselves that satire is dangerously close to fascism.

The Forensic Sir Keith, with his tight grip on the party and politics, has just claimed at his press conference that he has no information, zero, nada on why his close friend and advisor was a regular visitor to Nonce Island.

He'd love to tell you! But he can't, because he doesn't know. Never crossed his mind or his desk.
