Remember in 2008 when the talk of gay marriage came up they laughed at the prospect that it would lead to grooming school kids to the gay agenda?
Go for it. It's the cynical and accelerationist take but go for it.
This had been a Conservative seat since the 1830s.
Definitely am, but I'm just entertained to watch a man who would be frothing if the boot were on the other foot bend himself around here.
They claimed it, but it was debunked pretty quickly and the line of argument was dropped.
If you saw the prosecutor literally has Handbrake installed on his computer. It is undoubtedly intentional.
In a just world, it'd be an immediate mistrial with prejudice.
That too.
As a very general rule you really shouldn't ever test - at the kind of range you'd normally be shooting, a blank is probably safe. But at point blank you're fucked.
Oh yeah well a blank is basically a round with the bullet taken out and some light wadding (paper, cotton, etc) put in its place to stop all the powder leaking out. And the wadding gets fired.
In most cases it slows down to nothing pretty quickly or is burned up. But at point blank range, a piece of cotton travelling at 700m/s will still fuck you up before it stops.
If it was a blank I'd have thought that unlikely.
Like sure they're deadly at point blank but the cotton wad you're firing does slow down a bit.
They even gave themselves the opportunity for a universe reboot as one of the endings for the Hell one, but they still didn't take it.
Things like are why I'm glad that the first amendment extends to the government being unable to compel you to say something.
You shouldn't have still been giving them pageviews.
None of us should.
My grandparents videotaped hundreds of episodes of the old Doctor Who shows. My parents watched both old and new Doctor Who. I even got into it for a few years.
Well the odds are astronomically small, but if by any chance they happened to have a tape of one of the many missing episodes then you could probably make a quick buck (and a spot of eternal gratitute) by returning them to the BBC.
In any case, I'll make the same recommendation I made elsewhere in this thread - the Big Finish audio dramas are quite exceptional in that they have much more frequent hits than misses, and are (almost) completely free from any kind of political drum-banging. Plus they are outside of the kid-friendly rating of the BBC (and overseas censors) so they can be darker and heavier in subject matter.
No worries. In the spirit of the OP, I'll recommend Spare Parts - an excellent fifth Doctor story about the genesis of the cybermen, and is able to be darker and more grisly than the BBC's kid-friendly rating would allow.
Except it's not just a monochrome/color debate. The image is very obviously from The Doctor Falls.
If you love classic Who you're very much in luck. The audio stuff started in 1999 to keep Who going so they've been putting out stuff with classic Doctors every month since then. Doctors 5-8 get the most releases but they do bring back some of the new ones, as well as some of the older ones (where possible due to the actors being alive, anyway). They're far enough divorced from the BBC that they even managed to persuade Tom Baker and Christopher Eccleston to come back and since it's an audio-only drama without infinite BBC backing, they live and die on the quality of the writing.
Like classic Who, you could just start at the beginning and work your way through if you really wanted to, but (at least to start) you may be better off switching between releases you like the look of and go from there. I can provide recommendations if you like. There are still a few arcs and ongoing stories (even among the releases linked below) but for the most part the stories are standalone.
There's also a couple hundred hours of stuff uploaded for free on Spotify. If you're so inclined, here's a list with links
Indeed. Thing is, you can tell the BBC have given up too, since they leave promoting the actual ongoing series as an afterthought and instead promote the 2023 60th anniversary special and Russell T Davies' return (and other niche things like audio releases).
On that note actually, the Big Finish audio releases can be absolutely top-quality, and for the most part are completely free of political drum banging of any kind. If you like Doctor Who and need a new fix, then there are some really excellent things in there to try.
OK, to be fair, that's a dual picture of their first appearance in the First Doctor story "The Tenth Planet"
No it isn't. It's a still from the 2017 story The Doctor Falls. Other than recognising the shot and the slight differences in the cyberman designs, you can tell because The Tenth Planet wasn't recorded in colour.
Also of note, this garbage editing job for a promo still of an upcoming series.
Honestly, I never bought the "he shouldn't have been there" narrative - stinks far too much of people trying to convict people of crimes they haven't committed yet.
The mob won't tolerate failures.
Some people called it a while back, saying GTA 6 will likely star a female protagonist
And they'll falsely claim it's the first GTA game to have one.
Late to the party but I strongly recommend Emby over Plex.
It's basically the same as Plex but without all the bloat bullshit and trying to sell you premium passes and the ability to watch TV on your TV. It's just a good media server which does what you tell it to do.
