Of course. They donβt want childless women in education, which means they donβt want women in education. I canβt see them offering free childcare for students.

Best ice-rink coffee pots since Beauty And The Beast On Ice at the Kingβs Hall in 1994.
How terribly sad. She was brilliant.
I've just signed to call on Belfast City Council to keep 2 Royal Avenue as a community space. Will you sign too? my.actnowni.org/petitions/ke...
Luckily my dog will never die so itβs fine.
Does anyone else sometimes focus on a date so hard (eg. a deadline) that when the next day finally comes around and shows on your phone screen you feel like Bill Murray waking up to a different radio show in Groundhog Day? As in, the idea of it was previously unimaginable? Just me, then.
Update: So I did see TRAIN DREAMS. Definitely not the best film of the year. It had some nice moments, but the fantasy floral deathbed looked so like an overdone Kardashian dinner table it ruined it for me.
Everyone is sharing wonderful Udo Kier memories so hereβs mine: once in Rotterdam, I was going up an escalator while he was coming down. We didnβt even lock eyes or anything. True story.
Saying that, I still havenβt seen TRAIN DREAMS or SILENT FRIEND and I really want to.
Just weighing in on the BFotY chat: ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER is (of course) great, but SIRΔT has won 2025.
The 25th Belfast Film Festival is now on sale belfastfilmfestival.org
No, thanks.
Amazing!
Iβve only ordered one meal in Czechia so far, but Iβm pretty sure they all come with a knife sticking out of them.
Great programme. Despite the revisiting and recognition of Wanda over the last 10 years or so Barbara Loden remains an enigmatic figure. What I know of her comes mostly from interviews on YT and old newspaper profiles around the release of Wanda describing her as Elia Kazanβs wife and not much else.
Blue Origin sounds like a terrible β90s surfer clothing line.
Thinking about CONCLAVE (which I have yet to see), the ridiculousness of the religious thriller, and Monty Pythonβs sketch about the bishop youtu.be/iqgaX_skm8w?...
Thatβs what they always say.
Exactly my point.
This is a Β£240 βart toyβ marketed to me by my oat milk subscription service. Itβs Nathan Barleyβs world and weβre just living in it.
Such a good film. I loved the familyβs, for the most part, ease with her and her camera, as sheβs been filming them since she was a child. The formation of a filmmaker unfolding on screen. Itβs brilliant.
Having successfully avoided BACK TO BLACK thus far, seeing the first two minutes in which Marisa Abelaβs Amy swoons at the mention of Ella Fitzgerald when the actual Amy didnβt rate her, was quite enough for me.
And presumably the part will be expanded in the sequel, which will be called JUROR⦠#3?
To be honest, I enjoyed how ridiculous JUROR #2 was. Kiefer Sutherland as the worldβs most nonchalant attorney really took me to the fair.
Ah, the Late Streaming Era. People clamber over each other to predict the end of anything (especially if it involves moving image).
ANATOMY OF A FALL should come with the warning that P.I.M.P. will be stuck in your head for the rest of your life.
