Running Man remake is great fun. Stephen King wrote the book in the 70s and remarkable just how prescient he was in terms of reality TV and media truth. Great Q&A too with Mark Kermode interviewing director Edgar Wright with anecdotes about meeting King and Schwarzenegger #runningmanmovie #BFI

Awful day in Sussex by the sea. Now seen 4 defeats in 6 matches and the lack of creativity is killing us. Also a proven fact that Brendan cannot play well for two games running #lufc

🧵 Not everything's lost in Germany's East. A li'l local election story from Saxony:
Neschwitz, a town near Bautzen, needed a mayor. There was only one candidate - from the far-right AfD. But a provision in Saxon local election law allows voters to add a name to the ballot. Any name.

Freelance illustration gigs drying up. Ad agencies using Midjourney instead of hiring human artists. Costume design turned over to AI wholesale. Good work vanishing.
