    It’s not about politics

    Why do you say she has 'lost her marbles'? Because she has converted to Christianity? Isn't that her (free) choice? And you may have noticed, Aubs, converting to Christianity is the new black. :lbf:

    I like Ayaan Hirsi Ali. She is a brave woman risking death to be an apostate and criticise Islam. Free thinkers everywhere should admire her.

    Book of Condolence Thread

    Tootsie is one of the all time best comedy films. After Some Like It Hot. What is it about men dressing as women that is just funny? Although in 2024 we seem to be very serious about such things. Tootsie would never get made today. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-69013314

    Apple Music's 100 Best Albums: "The Queen Is Dead" #66

    The aesthetic of the Arctic Monkeys, at least in the early days, could have been lifted straight off The Smiths' South Bank Show documentary.

    Your favourite Smiths single?

    It is a great song. Totally unique. Sounds like nothing else. I would put Well I Wonder in that same category. And the harmonies at the end are some of Moz's best. Still, it's not my favourite single. If I was going on the sleeve alone, it would be Charming Man. Closely followed by Shoplifters...

    We might see another Smiths album in the list somewhere - but probably not, and probably not a Morrissey album. I live to be pleasantly surprised. Although I'm mostly truly disappointed.

    Question Maladjusted favourite lyrics

    Haven't we all? Life can be stifling at times. And isn't it great that we have invented social media to make it even more so?

    Eurovision 2024

    The creation of the state of Israel wasn't a 'Western-backed settler-vanity project'. In fact the UK tried very hard to limit and restrict Jewish migration to Palestine. The UK also lost many lives to Jewish terrorism, such as the King David Hotel bombing. The partition of mandatory Palestine...

    Question Maladjusted favourite lyrics

    "Oh Christ, another stifled Friday night!" I remember vividly those lines really striking me when I first heard the album and the title track.

    Eurovision 2024

    That's not the point I am making. We can all agree that the scenes coming out of Gaza are horrific. And the scenes coming out of Ukraine are horrific. As are the scenes described by human rights organisations in Syria, and Xinjiang, where no Western journalists or cameras are allowed, of course...

    Your favourite Smiths single?

    My vote would always go to What Difference. Best single of all time. With Last Night I Dreamt coming a close second, and This Charming Man third.

    Your favourite Smiths single?

    So, what is your all time favourite single released by The Smiths? Unfortunately, the poll function will only allow a maximum of 18 options - so I have only included singles released by The Smiths in the UK pre their splitting up in 1987. I also had to leave out How Soon Is Now? on the grounds...

    I'm actually quite amazed how much good stuff there is on that list. There is hope for humanity yet.

    Apple Music's 100 Best Albums: "The Queen Is Dead" #66

    AM should definitely be on the list. Alex is a talented word smith with a very 'northern' outlook on life, and clearly very inspired by Morrissey. I think Morrissey knows that, which is why he made that line about 'not wanting to upset anyone's nan' when he said something bitchy about them in an...

    We only have Hamas to tell us how many civilians have been killed. Of all the instances mentioned, the genocide in Xinjiang is almost certainly the one for which the term 'genocide' is most 'fitting', to use your word: forced contraception and sterilisation of women, internment and slave labour...
