Maiden Castle circular for today’s dog walk. (Yes, there is a Maiden Castle prehistoric settlement in Durham; the Dorset one isn’t the only one). The autumn colours are glorious, but one strong winter gale will see them off. So pop out if you can and enjoy them while they last! #Durham 😊

An actual hot take: Too many authors are afraid of editors watering down their voice or whatever and not afraid enough of editors letting you put any old slop on the page.

The USA as a developed country is so behind in public transportation and it hurts my soul.
I'm on the slowest bus line in the city with the slowest buses in the nation to talk to New Yorkers about what it would mean for their lives if we made them fast and free.

So... What is the definition of starving artist? Do I actually have to be starving? Or is it about being broke? If I have food but am broke can I still qualify? What if I have a job but am on a massive caloric deficit?

Give me a game where I can shank KKK members as a core game mechanic PLEASE
Ubisoft canceled an 'Assassin's Creed' game set after the Civil War
• Featured a Black Assassin who was formerly a slave
• Would fight the emerging Ku Klux Klan
• Leadership canceled it — concerned with US political climate & Yasuke backlash

Another good example from the season premiere: you can’t change Gosunkugi being Akane’s creepy stalker without fundamentally changing the character
You can, however, change it from “he takes sexy photos of Akane doing gymnastics” to “he tries to get photos of Akane but Ranma keeps posing for them”

Sora is not the real problem here. The real problem is that in 12, at most 24 months, there will be a Sora clone from Tencent or Alibaba that is just as good and can be run by anybody with a 5099, at which point everyone in society needs to rapidly agree to treat all digital video as fake, period.
