Just want to come on here and say that in just 2 weeks The Muppet Show is coming back in something that is acting as a backdoor pilot, meaning that if it does well we could get more. Disney (as usual) is barely marketing it so I ask PLEASE WATCH IT! The world needs Muppets right now! #TheMuppets

I need at least 3 more folk to sign up for my Edinburgh Adult Education Programme archaeology classes at Craigentinny, or the course will be cancelled. If you know anyone who might be interested, please let them know. Thank you!

This is a global far right power grab, so the sooner everybody realizes that and puts aside their deeply outdated notions around national identity, which got us here to begin with, the better. The only way out is through, but the only way through is all of us fighting these climate warlords together

Kahless tells us that the darker it is, the more the smallest light stands out. A true warrior tries to be a light in the darkness, a beacon to others of honor to find and join and blaze all the brighter, and push back the dark together.

It's also incredibly telling that the messaging is that this is over.... "in the wake of"... "after the Grok controversy"...

We need to create a fake crisis that only applies to the nouveau hegemony bros that freaks them out enough to send em in to the fallout vaults. Then we weld the doors shut and get on with things with some modicum of fairness and common sense.

Imagine being the chaplain at mountjoy. I imagine would be bad for everyone but imagine having to deal with him on a spiritual level on top of everything else.

I don’t really know where the whole Wine Mom thing comes from, but maybe let’s retire it if it’s just become a dismissive way to talk about adult women who might have children and sometimes want to enjoy things. That’s. That’s a regular person.

They never invited him back again, did they?
FWIW, that interview (& esp. this clip) was a primary catalyst in me being very eager to see Emmet Kirwan’s Accents when it toured Ireland & visited Limerick last year.
Of all the shows I saw last year, it was one of the four Five Stars From Me shows.

talking about AI as a bubble doesn't make sense. AI/tech has become integrated into critical social/financial infrastructure means fall of AI = fall of these institutions. just like govnt's bailed banks during the financial crisis, they will do same with AI so long as AI remains social infrastrctr

In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties.
The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized.

Choir's back, and even if all's not well, at least there's singing.
Go sing if you have a chance to. It's so bloody good for you.
My whole being feels better.

Something I don't talk about too much but that I love and fell in love with in college is Universal Design. The idea and ways that things can be made so that everyone can use them without compromise. Eg, bank cards don't have raised numbers on them anymore, that probably sucks for blind people!
Just saw a vid on YouTube of a blind guy getting sent a custom amp with braille on it and it just has me wondering why that isn't more common/standard? It has no impact to sighted people but it made *such* a huge difference to this guy, he doesn't need someone to tell him his settings anymore!
