https://twitter.com/JohnRentoul/status/1976190441197379963I was one of very few British people who watched Breaking Bad when it first came out; I torrented it, having been intrigued by the premise. Watching it back, the pilot is shockingly crude, by the standards of later episodes. The depressing nature of Walt's pre-meth...
https://twitter.com/MittenDAmour/status/1959872825239756898The Boondock Saints was one of the many, many subpar Tarantino knockoffs - that is, ultraviolence plus overcooked dialogue - of the late '90s and early '00s, distinguished only by its theme-pub-worthy fetishisation of Irish culture, of the sort you only ever see from Americans.
https://twitter.com/RepBrianBabin/status/1912900359875604644Bukele's regime has locked up many thousands of innocent men, in appalling conditions. But just try convincing the typical Salvadorean that they should care more about that than their cities being safer places to live. THAT's the challenge: in the short term, despotism delivers.
https://twitter.com/AgnesCPoirier/status/1453393823741140996The number of right-wingers in this country who flatter and euphemise the French far right in the apparent belief they're nothing more than Gallic Brexiteers is truly dismaying, not to say infuriating. It's profoundly frivolous behaviour based on a childish anti-EU grudge.
https://twitter.com/NBCNews/status/1453565197805830148I'm not saying, before anyone jumps in, that left-wing cancel culture isn't a thing. But the sheer amount of centrist ink that gets spilled over it, at a time when Republicans are openly embracing fascism and banning books, will not be looked on kindly by future generations.
https://twitter.com/RottenInDenmark/status/1453296746767994894Once again: the core claim is not "all trans women are potential rapists". It's "some lesbians have felt pressure not to reject trans women sexually for fear of seeming bigoted". The Twitter reaction to the article more or less makes that case in itself.
https://twitter.com/AbalardFundell/status/1452911593222721537Not that I in any way endorse the far left strategy of combating fascism through street violence. But the vast majority of conservatives all over Europe, including the UK, saw Hitler as a useful bulwark against Bolshevism until it was far too late.
https://twitter.com/stephenpollard/status/1452888553705426948Is there a profession with less accountability than opinion journalism? I doubt it. Melanie Phillips faced zero career consequences whatsoever for her culpable journalistic malpractice that almost certainly cost lives. If any of us screwed up that badly, we'd be out of work.
https://twitter.com/SunriseMvmtDC/status/1452457074261209089It's possible to be against Zionism without being at all antisemitic, but it's a very tricky needle to thread. That statement doesn't even make the attempt.
https://twitter.com/ChadARickard/status/1449133859921178631"They're all on the take, aren't they?" is a very lazy and stupid way of sounding clever and knowing.

https://twitter.com/Klopps_Mug/status/1449108784635334666Encarta was amazing, it used to occupy me for hours, much as Wikipedia does now. But compared to what's now available online, it was a very meagre resource indeed.
