The world seems to be hoing to hell in a handbasket, but this version of So Far Away from me seems to tell me that everything will be all right in the end. And the transition from acoustic to electric is ... perfect. #DireStraits #MusicSky www.youtube.com/watch?v=5HWo...

Yes, the world is in a dire place, and things will get a lot worse before they get better. But that means beautiful things become even more important.

Another #Wodehouse "He was the old buster who, a few years later, came down to breakfast one morning, lifted the first cover he saw, said ‘Eggs! Eggs! Damn all eggs!’ in an overwrought sort of voice, and instantly legged it for France, never to return to the bosom of the family." #eggs

"If you've got a straight answer ANYWHERE in that bent little head of yours, I want to hear it pretty damn quick or I'm going to take a large blunt object roughly the size of Elminster AND his hat, and stuff it lengthwise into a crevice of your being ..." CHARNAME quotes for the ages...

The fact that Deepseek R1 was released three days /before/ Stargate means these guys stood in front of Trump and said they needed half a trillion dollars while they knew R1 was open source and trained for $5M. Beautiful.

Peter Weir said that he thinks first of the music that goes with a scene before filming. And this, once tied to the streets of Madrid, will always be the music in a small cabin in 6th rate frigate, where two friends play Boccherini #PeterWeir #MasterAndCommander www.youtube.com/watch?v=F-Te...

I have decided to post like a madman here, starting with a quiz on #PGWodehouse. This account will be almost entirely around PGW, PTerry, Leslie Charteris & Biggles, with occasional incursions into Agatha Christie, Dashiell Hammett, & Patrick O'Brian slackervision.blogspot.com/2021/05/quiz...

Hello BlueSky. I spent 3 days watching every frame of the animated classic FernGully: The Last Rainforest. I cross referenced lists, maps and my own approximate area of where the movie took place around Wollumbin (formerly Mt Warning), Australia to figure out a species list.

I feel it’s time to rewrite my Rules for Criminal Plots for this new platform. Rule One: look at the shoes. If the new co-conspirator is dressed shabby like the rest of you but his or her shoes are neat and well-maintained, they’re a fed. /1
