@margaretmorgan.bsky.social is wonderful. She saw the Bee Gees live when they were children and SHE was a child. Now there's a good chance she may be able to help us figure out what in the world is going on with this Dutch TV Show from 1983 possibly taped at the dome in Raamsdonksveer. Help! 🆘
Okay it does look like some kind of football award show shown on Dutch TV.

So @sky-west.bsky.social I think the camel photos mystery is solved ..
The Lamplight newsletter says that Robin was interviewed by Louis Bakens (general editor of Lamplight) at the ‘Automuseum’ in Raamsdonksveer, Netherlands on Friday 20 May 1983. He's with Robin in the camel photo too!

there has been research documenting that men overestimate how much women are speaking by a large margin, to the point where if a woman is speaking 30% of the time, she is perceived as “dominating” the conversation (a fun fact I got from Deborah Tannen)

Let me just say that I do not work at an outlet with an aggressive paywall, but I will also instantly block this kind of nonsense.
How does anyone think not paying to be informed is a flex? We have to support real news and indie outlets.
The alternative to paying is AI slop and Billionaire PR.
