Lenin was on the deathbed, with Stalin sitting by his side… Lenin says: “Joseph… I’m not sure you’re the right man to lead the country after me. I don’t know if the people will follow you.” Stalin responds: “Don’t worry, Vladimir Ilyich. Half of the country will follow me, and the other half will follow you.”

That's pretty standard on any sea-front / beach area doing fast food in the UK. Chips (aka proper chips, not french fried chips), mussels, ****les, etc all tend to come with those wooden forks in that style. Also, a lot of fish and chip joints provide them if you're just asking for a bag of chips.

Not as any advice or such, but it reminded me of a conversation I was in some years back. Some comments made by a few old couples I met on cruises my family went on as a child / teenager, so yes, this might be a couple of decades old now... But I met about half a dozen 60+ couples who all referred to the fact that they found it less expensive to basically book cruises year around rather than deal with the costs associated with retirement homes, care homes, and supporting carers if you lived at home into your old age. They'd quite often book back-to-back cruises on the same ship for a year, then spend a month in a hotel while the ship was doing annual refurbishment and then get back on the ship for a fresh year of world travel. They got better meals, better service, came to know the crew quite well, and didn't have to worry on half the things they would if they stayed with their families.

Apparently they're basing the entire first season off about the first 100 pages of the first "story" within the Foundation book. Trying to focus on explaining and setting up the universe, the Foundation, and what it all means before they start having to change multiple characters across 500 odd years.

‘Night Court’ Sequel Starring Melissa Rauch & John Larroquette Lands Series Order At NBC – Deadline A little startled, Night Court to return, and Lorroquette reprising his role.

For what looks like it could be an interesting little niche film:

Caught the first two episodes of Foundation. Not quite sure what to make of it. Good actors digging into their roles, glorious visuals you'd expect in a film working smoothly on streaming tv. Slow set up story. I think it might be one that will need the entire season to be watched in fairly close order to actually get a good grasp on it and feel if it flows right.

I have no idea what the show is.. but that is so relatable.
