I've got a hopefully large variety in who I follow BUT there were too many royalist posts popping up this week and then I was pushed over the edge by posts with Starmer being portrayed in a positive light (because anyone would look good when compared to Trump-Putin). If the ones who post that crap keep it up, they'll at least get a mute.
My toot is a parody of Charlie's public relations dept posting about the Myammar earthquake.

Watched "The Hitman's Bodyguard" (2017) on Sunday and "The Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard " (2021) on Monday.
The 1st had a European Dictator (a "Belarussian" played by Gary Oldman) on trial (in ... Amsterdam ...) who was charged with various offences (moneylaundering, maybecheatingatgolf, massmurder).
The 2nd had a Greek crimeboss (played by Robert Rodriguez) carrying out a plan to cut a main European data cable.
So, no doubt very inspiring for some ...
Anyway, I enjoyed the almost 1950's madcap comedy whipsnap sharp dialogue but with cusses; Ryan does his thing, Samuel L does his better thing and Salma basically plays her DuskTillDawn role, Santánico Pandemonium, but times a thousand.
The series is like Bruce Willis' DieHard movies (infrastructure weaknesses) and a parody of the Tom Cruise MissionImpossible films (ridiculous ass-pulls but revelling in the ridiculousness of the ass-pulls even moreso than MI does).
Salma's "Sonia Kincaid" reminds me of the unreconstructed & post-reconstructed personality of Angelina DiGriz from the StainlessSteelRat book series (we never find out Angelina's real name but she takes Jim's surname on marriage).
Angelina is a megalonaniac psychopath with a murderous version of a Nihilistic personal philosophy). Psychopathy was a big thing in the 1950's post-WorldWarTwo era with the Nature vs Nurture debate being on the minds of intellectuals in the West.
Sonia is a conwoman (so like Jim & Angelina) but opposed to capitalists and crimebosses (so she's unlike Angelina but more like Jim in that respect (Jim likes scams and bank robberies).
She is quick to violence when others she cares about are in danger (or threatened). She bears grudges.
(Salma, of course, acts/works well with Robert Rodriguez.)
Samuel L's "Darius Kincaid" reminded me of his role in "51st State" (the pharmaceutical genius Elmo McElroy). Despite having a surprising personal reason for "choosing" their lives (Elmo as chemist, Darius as a hitman), his characters drive the stories providing forward movement (and action) where exposition for other characters's emotional lives would stop the plot (Darius turns out to be the one responsible for most of the turmoil in the characters's lives).
Ryan's "Michael Bryce" is essentially a good man trying his hardest to be excellent in his job as a certificated licensed bodyguard. He then hits this patch (the movies) where he is constantly frustrated by his own desire and incompetence to achieve that recognition but also will push respectability (in others's eyes) away to maintain his ethical code. Michael is a combination of John Cusack's Martin Blank from Grosse Pointe Blank (for which we have to thank Lee Marvin in Point Blank (but not Mel Gibson in Payback)) and John Cleese's Basil Fawlty from FartyOwls.
There's a sequence in the 1st film where Michael & Darius are in a stolen car and Darius claims he needs to pee - it's at about 45mins in and is four minutes of low-action high-comedy with a tad of "of course that had to happen now".
I got a lot out of these films, but there was also something else ... I'll be seeing you.

We don't get the word "Moor" in reference to muslim people till the rise of "English" about the C11th.
- - -
(Google/Wikipedia)
"The English Morocco is an anglicisation of the Spanish name for the country, Marruecos, derived from the name of the city of Marrakesh, which was the capital of the Almoravid dynasty, the Almohad Caliphate, and the Saadian dynasty"
- - -
I can't quite recall the major thing that I read on Moroccan history but I think it was about libraries, trade & money/banking before the C10th but after the spread of Islam during the C8th & C9th.
I've not read the story of Don Rodrigo Diaz de Vivar of Castellon (el Cid) but I'm sure the terminology in that era in Spain for arabic people and muslims in particular was not "Moor". By the C16th, you get common english usage of "moor" and "blackamoor" which fits with the C11th rise of the Almoravid's in Morocco. Contemporary Spanish has "moro/mora".
From too much Crusader history being flung at me, I assume around the C10th the actual word used by europeans for muslim soldiers may have been some form of the word "Saracen".
- - -
Here's what Google's AI Overview (😱) says :-
The word "Saracen" has multiple possible origins, including:
Greek: The word "Saracen" comes from the Greek word sarakenoi. In the early Roman Empire, the term was used to describe an Arab tribe in the Sinai. Later, the Greek-speaking subjects of the Empire used the term to refer to all Arabs.
Arabic: The word "Saracen" may come from the Arabic verb saraqa, which means "to steal". It may also come from the Arabic words sharq and sharqi, which mean "east" and "easterner".
Place-name: The name may come from the place-name Saraka or SarakaE, which refers to the tribe camping in the area. However, there is no Arabic reference to either the place or the tribe.
Desert: The name may come from the Arabic word sahara, which means "desert".
Partner: The name may come from the Arabic word shanik, which means "partner".
The term "Saracen" spread into western Europe through the Byzantines and the crusaders.
- - -
I like the idea that "Sahara" became "Saracen" as I've known much less likely name origins. I wonder what Reddit ...
- - -
One theory says it is derogatory in nature. It basically suggests that Saracen comes from the Arabic سارقين/sariqeen meaning thieves.
- - -
... Cheezus, Reddit.
Anyway, C4th christian bishop Nicholas is far too early to be called a "moor" and I'm having no luck finding a contemporary term for muslim soldiers (occupiers) during the Umayyad rule in Spain.
To find out what terms were being used for "moroccans" during his time requires me to do more digging, though I'm inclined to believe it is irrelevant as the origins of St Nick usually say he is "Turkish" under then Roman rule.

I read that thread yesterday and decided to stay out of it ...
... one point of order ((can't help myself)), "the Moors" didn't exist as such until after the founding of Islam in the Seventh Century. Almoravid Dynasty is about C11th and before that you get a whole sweep of Mediterranean/NorthAfrican history with tribes, invasions of Sicily, pirates et cetera. (I've accidentally read a few things about Morocco over the years as parts of other topics. The last recent article I read was about phosphate reserves.)

Sunak did a deal with Peter Thiel's Palantir so that the UK pays Palantir to use our medical records to make money by selling (advertising) private medical services to us. I assume there is also no privacy of those records now. Palantir is also working on a crime prediction system (AI?) so you know the medical records will be folded into that.

There's not enough respect for donkeys. They're incredibly intelligent but also aware of other creatutes emotions. Their sense of humour is empathetic and mocking, seeing and knowing others feel pain, as can be seen when they yeehaw at specific harmless but unfortunate events.

That clip got surreal very quickly.
I ask myself, if they hadn't had an actor in brown face in the first ShortCircuit film then would the second film have had a new migrant character to fill that role or would it have been a different story altogether.

The 2nd film is the better story and funnier one, as well as making me appreciate being manipulated by "Hollywood" with Johnny5 "recovering" from being damaged.
Can't remember the other characters' names, but the use of digital tones for songs snippets as a means of communication between them also had a strange effect on me.
