The math on this image is insane. New Horizons transmitted at 2,000 bits per second from 3 billion miles away. Slower than a 1990s dial-up modem. It took 16 months to download all the flyby data. The spacecraft had to hit a target box 100km wide, arriving within 150 seconds
It took 9 years and 3 billion miles to get this shot. Pluto’s icy Mountains. https://t.co/jpj3kSYQoz

Hot Fuzz (2007) is one of those rare films that gets sharper every time. Even Edgar Wright joked that the screenplay is so packed with setups that people think he “cheats” until they go back and spot them all.
Name a movie that gets better with every viewing.

Inheritance tax isn’t “theft” from those who have built a “successful life and legacy”. It is a tax on those receiving a windfall of unearned wealth. It’s not “immoral” unless you think people’s life chances should be determined not by what they do — but who their parents are.

Immensely evocative image. Perhaps he could name his political movement after such a bundle of sticks, illustrating its strength?
'You can break one stick, but if you get a bundle of sticks tied together you can't break them' Actor Steve Coogan told #BBCBreakfast why he believes the co-operative movement still has a significant role to play in society https://t.co/p1vC293CYv

It is ESSENTIAL to remember that between a third and a half of people have NO inner monologue or dialogue. They don’t debate with themselves, they have no inner conversations – they exist in a blur of images and sensations and feelings. And they are all around you…

Grateful 🙏
We are delighted that our Writers' Access Group has returned with a group of 10 new talented deaf, disabled and/or neurodivergent writers. For the first time this cohort were selected via an open call out back in early 2023. We've been working with the group since autumn 2023.

Sorry but choosing realism over style is why all films look like shit these days nobody gives a fuck if "moonlight isn't blue" movies aren't documentaries they are supposed to be ART.
