My money is on Shia LaBeouf, Joaquin Phoenix, or James Franco.

In today's episode of "Most of your ancestors were xenophobic", I just discovered the origin of the Australian slang "to carry on like a pork chop" is the older phrase "like a pork chop in a synagogue" 😬

'I’m just a girl, standing in front of the British government, asking why they want to give away all my work as part of the UK's 126 billion pound creative arts industry, to serve another industry being run by greedy tech bros, just so they can destroy everything else just that little bit faster.'

Some of those tax credits are based on publishing the results of research rather than an output asset, and those should be sound if the fundamental approaches are.

What George Lucas got right about the original trilogy, but has never managed to replicate since, is that I was a little kid when those came out

I’ve loved so much of @aptshadow.bsky.social’s sci-fi that the different style of City of Last Chances has been a delicious surprise. Notes of Mervyn Peake with sprinklings of the less goofy parts of Terry Pratchett and Douglas Adams, but a distinct voice and style and compelling world building.

Nietzsche and Foucault blew my mind in lots of ways I’ve found useful as an adult, but I genuinely think PoS shaped me more than anything else I studied in philosophy.

It’s been decades since Phenomonology of Spirit blew my mind as a student but to quote Wikipedia “the recognition of someone you do not recognize as properly human cannot count as genuine recognition” feels pertinent right now…
