Just the right balance between leaning into the silly humour and having a lot of heart. It won't work for everyone but we both absolutely loved it.
Leto's Skeletor is better than I expected, but I don't think anyone can touch the sides of Mark Hamill's voice performance in the newer Netflix series.
Saw it today and outrageous fun is correct.
Probably the most enjoyable film I've seen in a while. -

Azath Vitr (D, on 16 June 2026 - 01:54 PM, said:The UK apparently doesn't collect statistics on crimes by immigration status or country of origin except for the number of foreign nationals in prison.
Some interesting facts from Sweden.
Sweden does collect that kind of data and didn't dare to publish those stats for a number of years, when they eventually did it was revealed that foreign born or those with foreign parents committed about 2.5 to 3 times as many crimes per capita as natives of a generally more serious character. When broken down by region of origin it was even less flattering to some people.
Is it a legitimate grievance I don't know for me it isn't sufficient to vote far right at least, but then I suspect those who are on the receiving end of those crimes feel different. -

Even a 'win' in cuba will come too late to save the midterms. Will anyone really care besides Cuban Hispanics which would just mean winning Florida even more? Another loss though....
We have to be entering a stage when even if Trump remains we start seeing some behind closed door constraints being placed on his worsers instincts. We have to right? Please? I think the best analysis for Iran that I read was Trump got bored of the war he started. He just cant see any long term plan through. Whether thats dementia or his personality I think either could be true (look at his bussinesses), but he cant be let to run loose any longer. It would be hard for the USA to send this singals while Iran was ongoing but even the blind have to see the damge he is doing to US global standing.
I've kind of given up on guessing what Trump will do next, but he has far too long left of his term for there not to be one or two more calamities in the cards. If nothing else because it's very advantageous for his own personal wealth through stock manipulation. -

Cause, on 15 June 2026 - 03:58 PM, said:It seems telling also that Trump wanted to sign the deal on his birthday, Sunday, and Iran basically said no we want Friday. And Friday it is. Back where we started politically annd strategically except the USA spent billions and Iran lost billions so everyone is poorer.
I actually think most people will find it a strategic defeat for the USA-Israel once the Trump in charge has left the halls of power. Iran is in a much stronger bargaining position now that it has shown that it won't crumble to external pressure and that it can at least somewhat block the straights. It will also only grow more able to do so with advances in drone technology, which is a lot cheaper than its previous missile program.
My worry is what is the next war the Trump will start now that he has finished this one. What are the odds of a takeover of Cuba?
