@beurresale_ @justalexoki Great list... Thanks

@justalexoki If you really want to block him everywhere maybe you should look to fmhy.net which is a complete list of all the piracy sites out of here and that could probably be useful to him if he wants to start pirating

nephew started pirating movies so sister in law asked me for help to block all those websites but i don't even know any of the big ones anymore. can you guys help me?

@IrvinsFur @Super70sSports It feels good thank you

@Super70sSports It’s a great song How does it feel to be One of the beautiful people

Baby, You’re a Rich Man might just be the Beatles’ most underrated song. I will now accept your nominees …

@Gregoresate @Super70sSports OMG That's not underrated at all. Its widely regarded as one of the best pieces of music ever created

@Super70sSports I have to go with the Abbey Road medley. Sentimental reasons...

@Oblivious9021 @Prashant_he Fnarff

@Prashant_he Analog Hole. A new concept...thanks for this!!

Interviewer: How does Netflix prevent users from taking screenshots or recording videos of the movies playing in the app?

@514V3R @realEstateTrent Wasn't it. Just amazing back then

@realEstateTrent lol encarta felt like the internet before the internet. spinning that globe and clicking random countries felt like magic back then.

Anyone else remember encarta and how magical it was the first time you saw it - or am I just old?

@ShemlockJ @RealPaulPutner Never saw that, I'll try and track it down

Why was Kevin Eldon never in a Hollywood film?

@BontFaen62 @is_OwenLewis Ha... I literally jump for joy when we have a blue sky for more than 1 hour.

@ShemlockJ @is_OwenLewis …and coincidentally- I can vouch for that too, as I’m in Liverpool today! Brrr!

🧵 1/11 Imagine a world where it rained...for two million years straight. Not a drizzle, but biblical downpours that reshaped the planet, wiped out half the species, and set the stage for dinosaurs to rule. This isn't sci-fi, it's the Carnian Pluvial Event (CPE), Earth's wildest weather tantrum that took place 232 million years ago. Grab your rain gear because we are diving in!

@is_OwenLewis @BontFaen62 And chilly wind year round in Liverpool

@BontFaen62 Britain does have awful weather during the winter, and a fair bit during the spring and fall too! 🌧

@Noirchick1 Angela's Ashes

@RealPaulPutner @F1shyBob Those 6 episodes of the Kevin Elton show were spot on. His George Martin & Boys from the Blackstuff were hilarious

@F1shyBob He was in Fahrenheit 451

@pronounced_kyle Excellent book Dearly missed

Who has read this book? I just finished it and want to start a spoiler-heavy groupchat. I have Theories

@Gnosisinformant @zakidaadaa Why is your CE the same date as AD?

@zakidaadaa “Typical immaterialist take”

It did not “explode” around the Roman Empire. Less than 2-5% of the Roman Empire converted to Christianity in the first century. This number slowly grows to *maybe* 10% by the 4TH CENTURY. That means for 3 centuries hardly anyone was convinced by Christianity or that this story was accurate other than plebs, freed slaves, women, peregrini, and eastern mystics. It was seen as a strange practice by most of the surviving primary sources like Kelsus, Pliny, Tacitus, etc. It’s only after Theodosius’ decree in 380 where everyone is basically forced to be Christian when we see a Roman Empire that finally “explodes” as majority Christian. We even have major Jewish authors of the time like Philo who lived 20 years before Jesus is born and outlived him by 20 more years til 50CE who writes about the events of Judea including Pilate, Herod, Sadducees, Essenes, Pharisees, and many events in that time and says nothing about Jesus. That’s a problem for you. If Jesus was performing miracles in front of 5,000 people, raised the dead, was raised from the dead, and zombies came out of the ground, then Philo should remember this or even hear about it by 50CE. But not a single source outside the gospels in the first century recounts these events. That’s because it did not happen and the gospels are mythological stories.

@scousepie @caoimhinof That's a bit extreme

@caoimhinof the lad that wrote it got expelled from our school and a teacher once told us he was never going to amount to anything and when I think of the coin he’s made off that cover and my fervent hope that said teacher has since died it makes me happy

Why does Mark Ronson go around acting like he wrote Valerie, when all he did was get an extremely charismatic singer to cover it, then stuck a pile of trumpets over the top?

@Letmeofflol @utftpaul @Keir_Starmer Tories again 14 years of misrulke

@utftpaul @Keir_Starmer Shame we don’t produce our own oil in the North Sea , real shame no one had the foresight to keep open Grangemouth refinery and actually use our own oil for Petrol etc what a novel idea that would be

@utftpaul @Keir_Starmer Erm... the Tories did nothing about past sudden rises ie Russian invasion of Ukraine

@ClareLou1878 Been thinking the same. For someone who doesn't bother with football it's not that great

Oh the best one is when they do articles “this man is dangerous to all women” but it’s behind a paywall so you can’t see where the man is being dangerous!

The fact that the Liverpool echo now costs £4.99 to read (if you read more then 10 articles) is hard to justify considering articles are normally “primark sandals which scream scouse” or debates about which is the best chippy.

@TitterAreTwats @CricImtiaz @DGBeswick1 They do... It's an amazing story

@ShemlockJ @CricImtiaz @DGBeswick1 Not a great analogy on my part. They do know who he is.

Can you hear that? That’s the sound of 1.5 billion people groaning 🫠

@TitterAreTwats @CricImtiaz @DGBeswick1 Ha.

@ShemlockJ @CricImtiaz @DGBeswick1 Or people in Albania to know who Norman Wisdom is.* * Yes - I know.

@rbarbosa91 Weirdly fascinating

Addendum 2: In modern times, we aren’t sure if Frodo would actually have access to the Havens: In the US, the Grey Havens wouldn’t be covered by insurance, in the UK the waitlist would be too long; and in Canada, he would have been offered MAID. More cannot be said of this.

🧵regarding Lord of the Rings - related traumatic injuries, and whether access to modern Level 1 trauma centers could have decreased morbidity and mortality within the Fellowship. Here we will take a more evidence-based approach to some of the injuries in Middle Earth (1/ )
