@lizbethmyles.bsky.social @paulcornell.bsky.social I found the original "Machine Stops" as a free listen on Audible. Only 1 hr 35 min. Read by Carey Mulligan, no less. My memory of it was correct: it does stay on the woman, and the son's adventures outside are told to her when they meet up later.

@lizbethmyles.bsky.social @paulcornell.bsky.social I read “The Machine Stops” original in a college course 35 years ago, when I’d only just found the then-all-text baby internet. It’s the 1 course story I still remember because of how prescient it seemed then, and now it’s got EVEN MORE PRESCIENT!

Happy Winter Solstice, northern hemisphere.
This was taken today at the vertical sundial at the Univ. of Wisconsin-River Falls. This is the day the gnomon’s shadow traces the highest arc on the dial. #WinterSolstice #sundial #verticalsundial

Welcome, northern hemisphere, to Solar Winter. This is the 45 days before and after the Winter Solstice, so 91 days total, or about 1/4 of the calendar year. These are the 91 days with the least sunlight. (My least favorite.)

I’ve got my Season 13 Collection box set now and just watched Terror of the Zygons Part One. I’m pleased to see that if you watch it on a normal player on a normal TV at normal speed you see it in the best fidelity it’s ever had. It looks fantastic. #DoctorWho #Season13

3 of the invited guests at this year’s Chicago TARDIS are Carole Ann Ford, Peter Purves, and Frazer Hines.
If there are some missing episodes about to be recovered, there’s an 88.5% chance that each would Star one of them.
