The conspiracy theory that Nolan just renamed the character post production from Achilles to Sinon because Sinon isn't even in the Odyssey is so fucking funny man, like read the Aeneid he's right there buddy.
Kristi Yamaguccimane@wapplehouse.bsky.social · 20h agoHad an incredible interaction with a guy over the weekend who went to see The Odyssey and told me he was pissed that Elliott Page played Achilles, a character Elliott Page did not play that was not in the movie
Everything I see about Will Stancil makes me glad we live on opposite sides of the planet and hopeful that one day that can be extended to opposite sides of existing and not existing.

Just to get this clear, it's more politically disqualifying in the UK to have been a supporter of the Leader of the Opposition between 2015 and 2019 than it is to have been a neo-nazi convicted of harassing a Jewish MP and inciting racial hatred against Jews.

Winston scuttled off out a side door after PMQs today instead of going out on the tiles and the media. He's obviously under a lot of entirely self-induced pressure. Poor lamb.

And Bomber has responded like a tantruming child to Judge Sharp advising him that his posts about the case probably breach the interim order of Judge Davenport and to seek legal advice before they address the HDCA issue next week. Hope everyone who came out in support of him doesn't feel too bad.
