Paul Greengrass adapting ‘1984’ for the movies
Why do we want to watch 1984? Ain’t it like we’re living this shit? None the less. Paul Greengrass will bring to us proles a movie about proles based on a book about proles and oppression and regression and societal dumbing-down and the surveillance state. Us proles will watch it, most won’t get, and those who do won’t use it to motivate them. Whatever.

New cover for ‘1984’ is aesthetics meeting wit.
I already own a copy (copies?) of 1984, but Penguin’s new cover may have me double (triple?) dipping.
UK MPs Want Laws Compelling Google To Censor Search Results. Orwell’s Ghost Nods.
Talk about shoehorning bullshit into seemingly harmless legislation. UK MPs want to go about preventing their blood-thirsty press from reporting on celebrities and shiz. Seems harmless enough. However how they want to go about doing so is typical backroom privacy-rights destroying bullshit.
