"We're all throwing dildos at women athletes to promote our memecoin" really puts a fine point on not just how sexist, mean and stupid so much of right now is, but also the grim degree to which we're just inundated with Stuff a 15-Year-Old Dipshit Would Think is Cool. A confederacy of Beavises.

In the opening chapters of this fabulous bio Rob lists "The Specialist" by Charles Sale as one of inspirations for Terry's development. "Funny without containing anything that could be defined as a joke".

Terry Pratchett described humanity as the place where rising ape meets the falling angel. In 2024 we had a lot of ape. Perhaps we could aspire higher in 2025? 🤞

Happy New Year

"You can't give her that! It's not safe!"
IT'S A SWORD, said the Hogfather. THEY'RE NOT MEANT TO BE SAFE.
"She's a child!" shouted Crumley.
