Nick from Toy-Fu

The British state could officially stake their position on the "Knuckles is pink/Knuckles is red" debate by slapping him on the £20 or the £50.

I've only just seen this closer and realised he's burned the logo into the wall of a bus shelter. Truly a Scotch icon.

Do you think it amuses his handlers to send him to these things?

The internet needs this in the way that England awaits the return of King Arthur.

"Christian nationalism is not the main motivation for the Iran War. Nor is it about Trump’s desire for autocratic consolidation ... ; nor is it a distraction from the Epstein files (I’ll get to that); nor is it about Trump’s desire for Middle East peace (I’ll get to that when I stop laughing.)"

The No World Order Meir Kahane, Netanyahu, Trump, and the war beyond Iran.

"One cannot understand the Iran War without understanding the Kahanists. But I rarely see analysts mention them. Maybe they did, and it was behind a paywall. If a war crime is subscription-only, does it make a sound? Is that sound a stifled scream?"

Well, I guess they could use their massive presence in export markets as leverage, if only they hadn't spent the last year making it harder and more expensive to export to them...

"My children, I have returned to- Oi! Gerrof!"

They want the rest of the world who will, as ever, pay the price for their war by suffering shortages and taking in refugees, to protect *their* economy from the damage *they* caused by starting a war without warning?

Badger badger badger badger badger badger badger CHURCHILL CHURCHILL

Not only would I be happy to replace Churchill on fivers with a badger, I'd replace the Churchill statue in Parliament Square with a big bronze badger AND I'd replace Ed Davey with an ACTUAL badger coz it'd probably vote in less austerity.

I already have something that works better than that. It's called "Steam".

I'm a Jessie Gender fan. I'm fully aware of Enterprise's appeal :)

It wasn't a bad show, but it was but it was also TNG again, again, and that couldn't hold onto a general audience.

Radio image with swirls

Looking at some radio data hot off the MeerKAT telescope today! MeerKAT is a South African radio telescope with a huge field of view for astro. I'm calling this one "Radio Starry Night" bc a calibration error off that bright source has made a lovely swirly van Gogh sky if I may say so myself.

DS9 was a modern western, a frontier town in contested territory, bold enough to challenge old stereotypes on all sides.

Voyager, as beloved as it has come to be, was a Star Trek show. TNG with different make-up. Enterprise was much the same, and that's why it stopped working.

I've thought the same about Star Trek recently.

TOS was a western, usually Rawhide, with a spaceship instead of loads of cows.

TNG was more like a legal drama or police procedural, in a settled galaxy with mostly familiar (to the characters) races having beefs that Enterprise had to settle.

Like Dom said super proud of this book, everyone has put together something really fantastic

We are also just about £27 away from the £1900 mark!!

So if anyone is feeling generous and wants a fantastic anthology
Be sure to give us a back

Reaching net zero by 2050 ‘cheaper for UK than one fossil fuel crisis’ Climate change committee finds move to renewable energy would also bring health, economic and security benefits

Our dependency on fossil fuels makes us vulnerable. Wars across the world are pushing up prices for households in the UK.

Why keep waiting for the next crisis? We need to transition to clean power as fast as we can to protect people and our economy.

Plug from the Bash St Kids was very important to me growing up. He assured me that even the weird looking kids can be protagonists.

I absolutely would if we had the capacity! They're great toys!

I look at them the same way I look at things like Brave and Web Diver- series with fun, innovative designs in them that UK TF fans might not have encountered before.

We... we saw them pulling bodies and school bags out of rubble in real time. It happened. I don't get what's to be gained by saying otherwise.
