This is possibly the worst stock photo ever taken.

Two children playing video games, but they have two different controllers, only one of which is plugged in, and the back of the console clearly reveals it has no power and is not connected to the television.

Years ago, I wrote Tom Lehrer a letter asking if he would be open to an interview, knowing full well that he would likely reject me. I assumed I would never hear from him, but to my surprise, he responded and rejected me. I am honored to have been rejected by such a legend. RIP Tom Lehrer.

@jefflipack.bsky.social Hi Jeff! I am currently making a history video on Disney's roaming characters, and I found this picture of GYRO at Epcot that I think you might have scanned. Would it be ok to use this in my video with on-screen credit to you? Thanks!

Not saying all eras are equal, but progressions are felt every generation. Radio was arguably a bigger leap from printed media than the internet was from 24/7 news networks in terms of scale and speed. Obv the internet is worse than radio, but it’s about the frame of reference of people at the time

I have been working on my next project since the last was released. Should be out late summer.

Patreon videos are ramble videos, they are not written or researched like main channel content.

I have heard the sinkhole is closer to the Odyssey and have never heard confirmation on the Horizons sinkhole
