I love that it has a serialised story and a sunday supplement.


The serialised story started this year.

They used to include crossword puzzles but people were upset to only have the answers four years later (or height, apparently they forgot them once).


I would love to have a copy since my late father was born on a 29 Feb


Right wing or not, it's hard not to like the "long now" behaviour which emerges when people are prepared to do it. This same year, we added a note to John Cage's organ


It's really not right wing. I read the article about gender transitioning, it's the kind of humour you'd get in tame stand-up comedy ("careful, boobs are heavy").


Given how quickly things change, 4 years is more than enough for something random to become labelled "far-right"... (even Friends is offending Gen Z now)


No it isn’t… Gen Z has only ever heard of Friends from a bunch of Boomers complaining about Millenials whining at Gen Xrs complaining about Boomers.

Now, that said, having just rewatched the whole series, there’s a lot in early Friends that really hasn’t aged all that well.

Gen AA or AB might eventually get offended by it, once Trump’s launched the Strategic Electrolyte Reserve, but that’s assuming this species runs that long.
