Prince of Powys

In Goodfellas, this is the most layered realization ever. De Niro's just looking, thinking. Then, he glances down. His eyebrow twitches just a bit... he glances back up, and there's a new spark in his eyes. One that says he just decided to kill Murray.

Tony Wilson interviews @ianbrown My 5 personal fav bootlegs in no particular order are: Glasgow Green 90, Valencia 1989, Copenhagen 1990, Mcr Int 26.6.87, 1993 In The Studio 1&2. What I wish was in existence are Roadmenders 1989, Trent Poly 89, more SC rehearsal stuff

Phil Lynott working is Asda 🤷‍♂️

My friend got a Linkedin DM from Bonnie Blue in 2021 when she worked in recruitment

The Sopranos isn’t a comedy, but this is still one of the funniest scenes on TV.

Sir Trevor Phillips was knighted in 2022 for services to equality and human rights. A former Labour politician who was the first Chair of the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC). We are being told by the man on the inside, that Labour and the left are hiding industrial scale Muslim rape gangs to win votes. This country has gone to war for less.

“In left-wing circles it is always felt that there is something slightly disgraceful in being an Englishman, and that it is a duty to snigger at every English institution, from horse-racing to suet puddings. It is a strange fact, but it is unquestionably true, that almost any English intellectual would feel more ashamed of standing to attention while ‘God Save the King’ was played than of stealing from the poor-box.” — George Orwell, The Lion and the Unicorn (1941) Orwell was pointing out a type of person who sneers at their own country as if that makes them clever. Not because they’ve thought deeply about anything, but because they think mockery itself is a mark of superiority. The tone of it hasn’t changed. The same kind of people are still here. The same smirk. The same false performance of being “above” England. You see it across media, universities, arts, politics - this little ritual of laughing at everything English: the history, the songs, the traditions, the parades, the accents, the villages, the old ways of doing things. As if scorn is the height of sophistication. Meanwhile the ordinary Englishman hasn’t changed. He doesn’t make a spectacle of loyalty, but it’s there - in how he speaks about home, in how he looks after his own, in how he stands when something needs to be stood for. It’s quiet, steady, and real. The divide Orwell talks about is still obvious: There are those who feel duty and belonging. And there are those who think they are above both. The first group doesn’t need to explain itself. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Kids today will never understand the euphoria of seeing one of these being rolled into class.

The girl, who lit a cigarette with the photo of Ali Khamenei, celebrates the death of the supreme ayatollah with this video.

What you are seeing in the @premierleague is a rapid transition away from real entertainment (open play goals, vociferous fans, flair players) to americanised entertainment (set plays, stat obsession, light shows, pre match entertainment)

This for me is the most powerful, truthful and relatable thing I have heard on @bbcquestiontime for years. Me feeling this way (and the fact that it was even necessary for him to say what he did) is a sad reflection of the society we live in now.

Michael Jackson's, Billie Jean, but as Irish Folk. OK, this is insanely good 🔥 🔥 AI blows my mind sometimes!

I still believe this is the best treatment for kids with ADHD.

Its amazing how damn accurate Yes Prime Minister was as a series when it comes to exposing corruption and cover ups in government. As the video states, this could be Starmer and Mandelson or any number of things. Worth a watch 👇👇

🤣🤣

The time Mick Lynch called the Lab candidate in Islington North "a private health profiteer" & Mandelson told him thats a nasty & disgraceful thing to say & a complete untruth The host then interjects "he's an entrepreneur who's made money in private healthcare" Mick: "Exactly"

Today in 1879… In one of the most legendary battles of all time, 150 British soldiers defended a tiny mission station and held out against four thousand Zulu Warriors! • The Battle of Rorke’s Drift • [Thread]🧵

The fact this man is chosen to lead a major party, be allowed to be an MP, and is given a media platform, illustrates how broken British politics is.

@tod1877 Where’s the rest of his pantomime horse costume gone then?

This is the original version of "Hound Dog" by Big Mama Thornton
