Of the many soul wrenching moments of TraumaZone, the Moscow space museum getting turned into a car showroom sticks as a poignant symbol of cultural annihilation.

The survivors trying to farm in the Roman forum after depopulation probably felt the same way too

There is one in Gorky Park, on the banks of the Moscow river, which makes for what I think is a striking juxtaposition. This might be one for the brain teaser thread, but of the two iconic edifices in this picture, which was built first? (Apologies for the poor photo quality, it's off my phone).
Still do - watch out for steam-powered boy racers.I saw there was a bad steam vehicle accident near where I live too. Did they have more accidents? Or were they just as likely as anything else to have an accident.
Are they harder to control, probably have a lot of weight behind them?

Better bet than a trunk wig anyway.I want a wig trunk, even though I have no wigs.
I tried to get Ai to make a picture of a wig trunk or a trunk for wigs. It really didn’t get it.Better bet than a trunk wig anyway.

I'm puzzled as to why Steve Coogan is being sued specifically (other than a rather unworthy thought about him likely having lots of money and being high profile...). Why not sue the script writers who wrote him as 'dismissive, patronising and misogynistic'? Actors are only reading the words that they are given, it's hardly Steve Coogan's fault if he was given a dick to portray, is it?And the court case is on!
Steve Coogan is being sued for libel by a university official over how he was portrayed in a film about the discovery of Richard III's remains.
Richard Taylor, formerly deputy registrar of the University of Leicester, is bringing legal action against Coogan over his portrayal in the 2022 film The Lost King, which he claims was "devious" and "weasel-like".
The lawsuit is also against Coogan's production company Baby Cow and Pathe Productions.
At a hearing on Thursday, which Coogan did not attend, William Bennett KC said his client Mr Taylor was presented as being "dismissive, patronising and misogynistic" towards Ms Langley.

Charcot paraded these young women before the lay audience like animals in a circus tent, apparently oblivious to any pain and anguish they may have suffered. Many patients returned on a regular basis for Charcot’s rounds; some became stars in Parisian society. Blanche Wittman, known as Charcot’s pet hysteric and the queen of hysterics, was made famous in an 1887 painting by the French academic history painter, André Brouillet. In this painting, which captures Charcot presenting Blanche to his neurological colleagues, Blanche faints into the outstretched arms of Charcot’s assistant Joseph Babinski, with her breasts barely covered, pointing suggestively at Charcot as she turns her head to the side with her face contorted as though in the throes of an orgasm. Remarkably, Wittman remained at the Salpêtrière for 16 years performing as requested for Charcot. Even more remarkable, after release from the hospital, she became a laboratory assistant to Marie Curie and died of radium poisoning.

The Lost King is a 2022 British biographical film directed by Stephen Frears. Written by Steve Coogan and Jeff Pope, it is based on the 2013 book The King's Grave: The Search for Richard III by Philippa Langley and Michael Jones.
But they aren't suing the co writer? Just him?Coogan co-wrote the script.
Dunno.But they aren't suing the co writer? Just him?
