Great article. New to me! Thank god Trump doesn't sing.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Just gone through your back catalog. Wow.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
You're welcome! Thank you for a few moments of something beautiful to light up my day!
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Well done mate. Very excited about this one (as always).
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Congratulations!
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
It's the details that count! Love that you spotted this, I also appreciate these things. Possibly obsessively.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Spread it.Inform. It is our duty.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Too many in it for the money. Get rid of the establishment figures, start with people with actual morals. We know who they are, they are the most attacked.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Good call.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
I was thinking about this just today. Thanks mate, will watch results with interest.

What's wrong with Clooney? Or you're joking, as you did repost him?
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Beautiful.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
A bit later? I had some similar, early 50s I think. May be wrong.

Definitely played to their low-budget strengths. Good film making.

Their purpose is to make the Tories more palatable again.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
I wish.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Very worrying. Starmer needs to resign asap too.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Was showing that to my daughter the other day.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Love him.

Like strongly.

Watch it at least once a year Absolute genius.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Thank you very much!
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
That's the spirit! I'll try to catch it if I'm free.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
I love that man.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Very good!
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
That and control of food supply.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Will do.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
You do good!
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Yep.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Just taking the time to go through some of your backposts. Great account. Thank you!

That's what happened. They were the new golden goose. Hated that transition, pretty much stopped working in tv (for other reasons too) except the occasional documentary.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Golden era. Certain amount of nostalgia involved of course but still.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
I used to work in movies and tv. I'm early 50s. My first experience of reality tv was horrifying, never went near it again. With dwindling budgets, it soon all became about 'formats' that you could sell abroad for high ROI. The collapse of well-made, informative programming is a terrible shame.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Yeah I've heard some degree of criticism but I think they're on the right track. Let me know anything interesting you hear about in this space, something has to turn the tide. I think settlements with the AI companies at this point gives them a blank slate for almost nothing, not a solution.

Storing energy is impossible, otherwise the windmills would work. And the sun things.

Team building. It's what a real WarriorFightingMan would do.

Not a Roman, is he.

Trump is involved in a company that is looking to buy all the failed farms at discount prices. Shocking, right?
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Love it. Thank you very much.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Great compilation.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Why do people do this.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Well done that man.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
lol
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Dude, he was supposed to be the leader of the new Brown Shirts. Have some respect.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Growing a beard?
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Good to hear.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Trump please. But not a chance.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
haha so just got to get through first two seasons? That's what i thought. Then The Mule I guess? I read every sci-fi book around when I was young but 'hard' sci-fi was always heavy going and these stood out as a slog. Worth a read but would never return.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Good one.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
I gave up season 1. Will give it another shot. Seemed as dry as the books (which I read many years ago).
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Sorry about the language. He's a bully. I'm not someone you try that with fortunately. Didn't need the job as much as he needed his teeth.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
I've worked with him. Absolute cunt.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Perfect.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
They already knew it was going to happen. Just too fucking dumb to play the part of being surprised.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Because the days when they used to have to pretend our opinions were important are gone.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Loved that album.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
At least he sent his wife as some kind of weird consolation gift.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
He loves it. Another maga martyr to distract from all his other fuck-ups.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
lol
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Almost as important as his anti-vax stance is the wording: comparing it to 'slavery'. A black guy, comparing healthcare to slavery, trying to diminish what the word means. Exactly what they're paying him for.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
How do we know it's even real unless we blow it up?
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Same answer. (sorry, just noticed your response, not checking socials much).
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Everyone i know in DC is just staying in as much as possible until they all go away.

Don't bother, it's rubbish, I tried it.

Great book if you haven't read it: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Villa_I...
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Had never heard it. Wish I still hadn't. Thanks mate.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
A classic of it's day. Thanks, haven't heard that in many years.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Very nice. Thanks.

That's what fuels him.

He liteally thinks everything in the US is his now if he wants it. The madness continues.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Good read. Ta.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Lovely.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Basic for a functioning democracy.

Basic.

When he wasn't prosecuted after his first term.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
They know exactly what they're doing. The figureheads are simply distracting and stuffing their pockets while others set things in motion. Trump is a puppet.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
I'd go with delusional and also ethically compromised.

Come to Argentina. Roller coasters are fun.

Globes are also bad. And maps in general.

It happens.

I doubt they were polling the people in the slums in India.

Check him out on Mr Rogers.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
lovely.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
For the same reasons they allowed the circumstances for this to happen to continue despite it being obvious what was coming.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
No just your government. Same as many countries: people generally lovely except for the zealots, even if their governments are out of their minds.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
lol. Better hurry up.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Will you marry me?
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Great album.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Sounds pretty perfect to me.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
And it's good.

'It's a Beautiful Place'.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
Brilliant.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
I think this is all more sinister than that. look at the deliberately inflammatory MAGA reaction to the Cracker Barrel sign change (and why) and the direct calls from MAGA politicians to 'reject modernity'. All part of the plan.
volid.bsky.social (@volid.bsky.social) reply parent
If you weren't lucky enough to have cool older people in your life (generally friend's older brothers/sisters) or a solid musician in the family, you were fucked. I was lucky.

Amazing. Hugely frustrating they never released a version of this but maybe you need the visual. idk : www.youtube.com/watch?v=vAoA...
