James Bond producer shares update on 007 casting: ‘It’s got to be really different’

The Tories have selected a convicted former Neo-Nazi as a councillor. Here's why that reflects very poorly on Jeremy Corbyn.

this is sociologically interesting. people who haven't acquired skills through education or experience now think they're *indispensible* compared to those who have.

My answer is LOL ROFL (dickbrain) The terminally AI-pilled can't even *imagine* some people have *never* asked stochastic parrots to cheat at their job for them.

Has AI as we know and use it now even been around 5 years? I would look at you absolutely crazy if you said you couldn’t live without it. You’re 45. How did you make it to this big age then?

If you met someone who had fallen out of love with reading, and you had one shot at getting them back into it, what book would you give them? For a thing.

the real issue with the internet in 2026 is nobody talks about Domo-kun anymore.

That's what taxes are, man. That's the definition of taxes. "You are subsidizing things you might never use" man shut the fuck up. My taxes currently subsidize like oil company exec private jets, you think I'm upset at low-income people eating inexpensive bananas?

Opinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.

House Hippos are real, and nothing will convince me otherwise.

Canadian History Ehx@cdnhistoryehx.bsky.social · yesterday

When the House Hippo first appeared on Canadian televisions, it seemed that everyone wanted one to appear in their homes. This commercial became a part of the Canadian cultural landscape and even today, the House Hippo is beloved by Canadians. 🧵 1/10

Kind of crazy to watch YouTubers go to my hometown and hit up places I know that are so similar to my favourite places on Earth, but slightly different. There are so many gorgeous places to swim on Vancouver Island.

TMZ knew Kobe crashed before his family did but these assholes can't find Mitch McConnell? Okay.

There is a man on my bus double-fisting a Wunderbar and a Coffee Crisp, alternating bites between each. I am fascinated and horrified in equal measure. Peanut butter and coffee?

I've been craving the Cajun chicken Caesar of my youth for months now. It's so spectacularly overdressed.

Helen Rosner@hels.bsky.social · yesterday

My favorite food on earth when I was a kid was the soggy Caesar salad from the Italian-theme cafeteria at Six Flags Great America (the one kind of across from the entrance to Batman: The Ride) and (this is a compliment) last night I learned that the Gotham Greens Caesar kit replicates it PERFECTLY.

God, remember when he said "quiet piggy" to that reporter and that was just gone by the next day??? like if you heard literally any other politician or businessman or public figure say "quiet piggy" to a woman that would be career-ending, first-paragraph-of-their-Wikipedia, "piggygate" shit

Canada also has migrant workers in low-paying jobs, typically in agri-food industries. They can work here ten months a year for 20 years and not even be on a path to citizenship. It's gross.

Mike Boylan-Kolchin@mbkplus.bsky.social · yesterday

A lot of the MAGA crowd wants the US to essentially become like the UAE, where there’s an enormous foreign workforce who have substantially fewer rights than citizens and are subject to awful working conditions. It’s a fever dream, but it’s their fever dream.
