Teaching college level courses on either the French or the Russian Revolutions. I’ve studied and know way too much about both.
What job are you extremely unlikely to ever get that you think you would kick ass at?
I think I could book compelling wrestling storylines.

For those of you who may have missed it - there’s a new @preparethetimelash.bsky.social episode out, covering The Wedding of River Song. For the #DoctorWho fans out there, have a listen and (hopefully) enjoy!

Doctor Who: Prepare the Timelash!!: Episode 50 - The Wedding of River Song
Our 50th episode! And to celebrate, Ken & Mike are talking about ... The Wedding of River Song? (Could be worse. Could be Sleep No More.) The story's kind of a mess, but our hosts do their best to sift through it all and find what works (Amy! The Doctor and River's relationship!) and what, um, doesn't (Time happening all at once? WHAT?). There's plenty to discuss in this one, so have a listen!

Watching my favorite #DoctorWho story. I’ve probably watched this one more than any other in the show’s long history. It was one of the few I managed to record 40-odd years ago on the family VCR when the reception for our local PBS station was crystal clear for once. Always enjoy it.

Richard Bachman and his novel The Running Man laugh at this pitiful writing pace. #thesparrowsareflyingagain
I saw someone today say that they think AI writing is awesome because they spent 36 hours using Claude to write a book for them and their wife liked it (and she reads A LOT!) and I'm going to go outside now and see if I can get abducted by aliens.

After some time to reflect on the last two seasons of #DoctorWho, I came to a surprising conclusion - it’s largely very good, if you look at the trees rather than the forest. 1/7

There was much about Ncuti Gatwa’s final episode that I did not care for. This scene was an exception, though. It was definitely brilliant. #DoctorWho

Tonight’s #DoctorWho viewing. Been a long time since I’ve last seen this one. (Also, I would think any competent assassin would be deadly. But I suspect “The Competent Assassin” isn’t quite as compelling a title.)
