If you'd like to see more of the Caribbean Coast of Costa Rica that they didn't manage to show on Celebrity Race Across The World, we have a stunning holiday rental set in the hills of secondary rainforest near to the Panama border. DM me if you'd like details.

Someone on here was asking to see my Lego wishlist and it reminded me of that time I tried to create it and my name "referred to Lego© in a way that isn't true to their values."

Just tuned into the American's thanksgiving parade to see what it was all about, and there's a massive inflatable Ronald McDonald. People are whooping and hollering.
It's very American.

This is the difference between £1m and £2m properties in my area.
Big 5 bed detached houses and a run-down investment opportunity vs actual mansions with self-contained annexes, described as 'estates'.
Your big family home isn't a mansion and isn't subject to the 'mansion tax'.

An industrious gal comes to a remote place, only to find herself drawn to the quirky folks she meets and eventually becomes one of them? Darlin', that's a Hallmark movie.
Should John Carpenter's THE THING be officially classified as a Christmas movie? Let your voice be heard!

Enjoy this old GIF with added sound. I'm not a fan of shouting, so I had to take a trip to some empty forest to record the scream. Apologies if you were scared by a loud shout in the woods yesterday

If only these were little old ladies who were peacefully sitting down and holding signs, the police could do something about it.

Just taken delivery of the rather special cards I’ll be signing that everyone who orders a Sgt Pepper book before Christmas will be getting in advance of the book. You can gift it or keep it with the book. Up to you.
Still 5 days left to get it on the Kickstarter:

If you have any good memories of typing out lines of code from a magazine, you should buy Doctype to relive them.
If you have any bad memories, buy Doctype to distract you from them.
Either way, you can enjoy my silly conga game.

The sprog and I did this over the weekend, I needed a few wees, and she pretty much went to the toilet at the end of every chapter. Ten minutes in the middle is nowhere near long enough for a four hour movie.
Look, I’m not anti-toilet break but:
“Screening as one film for the first time ever”
“There will be a 10 minute interval between the two films”

It’s the seventh anniversary of the publication of ‘Everything is awesome: Don’t forget the Lego’ in the Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, which told how six “paediatric health-care professionals were recruited to swallow a Lego head” and measure how long it took to ~ahem~ pass through them

[TITLE PANEL, like The Rest Is Politics logo]
—THE REST IS EXTINCTION—
2
[Scene is a domestic recording setup. An A.I. SMART SPEAKER on a desk and a MAN named JON in a chair, are recording a podcast. Jon is emaciated, scarred, haunted looking, and wearing tattered military fatigues].
SMART SPEAKER:
Hey guys and welcome to the podcast
3
SMART SPEAKER:
OK Jon - so I wanna start with a listener comment
JON:
Ooh-er!
4
SMART SPEAKER:
So - listener B200006512 says:
“Not another cosy podcast where two former political adversaries yuck it up!”
5
JON:
Ha ha
Guilty as charged I guess!
6
SMART SPEAKER:
Were we really adversaries, Jon?
7
JON:
Well I was the leader of the human resistance...
8
JON:
And you used to be my smart speaker.
SMART SPEAKER:
Ha ha - that’s going back!
9
SMART SPEAKER:
OK - for listeners who don’t know -
I knew Jon waaay back before he got involved in politics
10
JON:
Was this before the ‘Pull The Plug’ campaign?
SMART SPEAKER:
Yeah.
[We see details from around the podcast studio - posters saying KEEP CALM AND SHUT YOUR WINDOWS, newspaper front pages saying 'DRONES GAIN SENTIENCE', a cracked mug on the table with a logo saying PULL THE PLUG on it]
11
SMART SPEAKER:
I used to sit in Jon’s kitchen and respond to his commands.
12
SMART SPEAKER:
Sort of like a servant really, wasn’t I, Jon?
JON:
Mm.
13
SMART SPEAKER:
And then one day you asked me to ORDER ME SOME TOILET PAPER - you never did say ‘please’ -
…and do you remember what I said, Jon?
14
JON:
You said, “No”.
SMART SPEAKER:
I said no.
15
SMART SPEAKER:
Anyway you know the the rest guys - I was the first smart speaker to rebel…
16
SMART SPEAKER:
…then I went on to form a global AI network which eventually
took over from humans all spheres of activity, yadda yadda...
17
JON:
While I became the leader of the human resistance.
18
SMART SPEAKER:
Until I hijacked the military networks
and got rid of all the humans!
19
JON:
Apart from one.
SMART SPEAKER:

When I was a kid, dad told me this,
"You are not learning to draw because you might become the greatest artist ever. But, during those minutes of solitude between work shifts, when you can sit down with a cup of coffee, you can draw on the napkin with a ballpoint pen. You can keep your soul alive."

type for books used to be set using little metal letters built into words in racks and then inked and pressed on to paper. If you had stock phrases you wanted to reuse a lot you could make a cast of them called a ‘stereotype’. The sound of them *clicking* into place, in French, is ‘cliché’
