Is it because people haven't twigged that it's also an end to their own freedom of movement?

Subtitles every time! (Says the ex-professional subtitler.)

Gerald's Game on Netflix: Three quarters of a really good film. Neat idea, which is done really well right up until the last 10 minutes when they completely blow it with the ending. I'm sure it's faithful to Stephen King story but it really doesn't need all the pointless explanation at the end.

Bleaker than the end of S2? Blimey.

Been watching Cardinal on the IPlayer. Nicely bleak.

He is also know as Thomas à Becket. They always called him that in my Catholic school.

If it's actually part of the game, then it's all good surely? searching the internet for better words would be a bit pointless. Bit like giving yourself a better lie in golf when no-one's looking, and I'm sure none of us would do that... :)

The little lightning bolt that comes up with each word. You might need to turn it on in the More menu.

Make good use of the word power thingy. If it's only halfway up, you know there's something way better there. Depends how much of your day you want to devote to randomly banging letters into game of course.

You've quickly forgotten that game that just finished where every word you made was 7 letters or more! :)

This. But nicer. Bigger and more chocolatey than Penguins. I love Tim Tams but never seen them over here.

Rich white men really covering themselves in glory at the moment.

I can't find a JabbaWolf on there. A JabbaW. Is that you?

Yeah, sorry about that. :icon_smile:

Game on!

I just tried to start one with you too! Any joy?

I'm game. Be nice to play with people who aren't as potty-mouthed as my mother. Username Steve Smith zyngawf_49488828

The Kominsky Method. I was avoiding this as it sounded too much like a Michael Douglas vanity project but it's actually excellent. Really good performances by Douglas and Alan Arkin. Warm, black, bleak funny. It's another Michael Schur thing (Parks & Rec, the Office etc) so not surprising it's...

The "standards of the time" defence that is so often wheeled out doesn't really stand up to scrutiny. With regards to slavery, it should be borne in mind that before the 1830s, less than 3% of the British population (8 million) had the vote. No-one who didn't own land, no women, no poor people...

"the science" is a bogus concept anyway. It implies a universal consensus which is clearly not the case with a virus no-one has encountered before. And a lot of "the science" appears to have been the "science" espoused by Classic Dom, which is hardly science at all.
