Here's an odd illusion: look at a picture of Edgar Allan Poe and you may think that he looks slightly, though not very much, like Kenneth Connor in Carry On Girls. But if you then look at a picture of Kenneth Connor, you'll see that he doesn't, particularly. This is known as the Poe-Connor Effect.

I liked it better when stuff like this was the backbone of the Viz letters page rather than what we decided to replace politics with.
Reform UK’s Lee Anderson wants to bring back the ‘invalid carriage’.
The Invacar was banned from English roads in 2003 over safety fears after some overturned and others caught fire.

SgtPepper montage 10 years project is go.
See the link to find out about the book, exhibition, auction and the charity.
Please consider backing the book. If it doesn't get funded, it doesn't get made and you don't pay anything. If it does, you get a fantastic book!

Well chuffed to have had a small involvement in Schott's Significa, the highly addictive new book by the author of Schott's Original Miscellany. It's a field guide to linguistic subcultures, and I collaborated on the section about the conventions of the comic strip.

ELON MUSK: “If we build this robot army, do I have at least a strong influence over this robot army? … I don't feel comfortable building that robot army unless I have a strong influence.” Read the full piece from @aarianmarshall.bsky.social on @wired.com www.wired.com/story/elon-m...
Elon Musk Wants ‘Strong Influence’ Over the ‘Robot Army’ He’s Building

I came to Jonathan Creek very late in the day, because I'd always somehow assumed that it wouldn't be my kind of thing. But it turned out that it couldn't have been more my kind of thing if it had come out of a box of kind-of-things with the word 'MINE' embossed on the lid.
And we're off! NEW EPISODE out today. Journalist and author @michaelhogan100.bsky.social talks about the magic of Jonathan Creek and his own crime novel debut, The Dogwalkers' Detective Agency. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/j...

I also need to know: I am fairly middle-of-the-road on Taylor Swift but someone I know called her the Greatest Living Lyricist. She is not.
