You know how the rule is that you have to share that Tom Holland Umbrella dance every time you see it?

This is the oldhammer equivalent.

God, I made SO MANY of these back in the 90s with my dad. Went and bought plasticard girders/I-Beams so I could make multi-level ones too.

While I think referring to generative AI work as "slop" is fine and correct, like @paulgcornish.bsky.social has said before it's pretty offensive using it for "film I happen to not like" because you're literally calling people who do like it pigs snorting around in squalor.

I was one of the sci-comm folk interviewed for this research and I've been looking forward to the results.
A couple of years ago, as part of a @britishacademy.bsky.social funded project, I interviewed some sci comm folk about storytelling strategies we know cause humans to pay attention to some stories more than others.

...except of course that the vulgar oafs at the centre of all these stories had big hearts & cared about people. That bit has been conveniently forgotten.

I feel like a big part of how we got to where we are, with people like Musk & Trump in the US & Johnson & Farage in the UK having so much influence, is that we've all been brought up on movies & TV about oafish, vulgar, & plain-talking outsiders showing the establishment where they've gone wrong...

One of JNT's pitches to escape Doctor Who and the "no wait, this is a good one! Someone make it!" was a show where a team solve the crimes people write to Sherlock Holmes thinking he's real and 150 to solve. That sounds peak eccentric Sunday night crime drama.

I take back every negative thing I've ever said about the Roman conquest of Celtic Britain.
"Domestic cats finally crossed the Alps with the Roman conquest of Gaul"

Huh. I never really thought about the connections between animal populations and military campaigns before

Years ago on a political show, I forget which, they visited party leaders' homes and during the Nathan Gill bit he stood creepily and too close to the reporter, speaking in an odd whispery voice. Anyway I'm not surprised he's facing jail time, I'm just surprised it's not for being a serial killer.

Once again, we are way too relaxed about the fact that "shooting Irish people is good actually" is a mainstream political position on the neighbouring island.

Just when I think I know everything there is to know about Superman, I learn that Vladimir Nabokov wrote a poem about him in 1942 that got rejected by the New Yorker.
