I mean come on, some of these shots are just so great to look at. One of Marvel's biggest flaws (at least as cinematography and VFX go) is that all to often it doesn't linger on its best looking moments long enough.

The MCU deserves a LOT of the shit-talk it gets for its management-minded assembly-line process, and the horrid crunch put on VFX teams, but some amazing shots have been made by really talented people trying their best and I just wanna shout out just a tiny sample of some of my faves.

Me, on my second day at the University of Exeter, explaining why I didn't do most of the administrative tasks I was supposed to on my first day:

There are still elections wherein two worthy candidates are on the ballot. I admit, this is a tough choice, but for #FatBearWeek 2025, I am endorsing 32 Chunk. An elderly but still very chunky boi who I believe deserves your support.

Rewatching Iron Man 2, still loving Sam Rockwell as Justin Hammer.

My last day in the office at Imperial College London. Got to sort out a lot of admin stuff I should have done earlier but didn't understand now have to hurriedly get HR to help me with.

Wow, ‪@mgiacchino.bsky.social‬ really understood the assignment. The score for #FantasticFour First Steps is so, so, SO good. The movie is already a delight but the score adds so much, I adored it in the movie and am adoring it again on the album.

Also my Fantastic Four.
I'll probably stop adding Fantastics Four now, unless I can come up with another full batch of four.
It's a good number, four.

But also, on a more serious note, my actual Fantastic Four:

Eesh. I'm happy for Świątek but sad for Anisimova.
I love tennis but sometimes I feel like Marge, I just want everyone to have fun.

Everything is terrible but I got my ticket to see James Gunn's Superman next weekend so at least there's that.

No idea why we doin this but
Quote post a Superman comic that came out the month you turned 15. Really not a lot of good options for me, kinda disappointed I don't have something as cool as the Anniversary issue in below, but I guess I'll go with this one.

Just reading The Biggest Ideas in the Universe 2: Quanta and Fields by the fantastic writer @seanmcarroll.bsky.social and I assume this is a wee formatting error in what should be "1/1800th".
Great book btw, as is vol 1. Carroll is fab at explaining concepts I just barely understood in undergrad.

But my overall reaction to the #DoctorWho finale was, along with most everyone else in the cinema

New popes take too long to get their fancy robes on, I just want this over with. Just tell us which bad choice was made so we can move on already.

Chalko the triceratops is attending a workshop on drawing fantasy maps at #EGU25, put on by artist and scientist @geologytalk.bsky.social
May 2, 2025 at 1:10 PM
My friend Tamina drew this adorable sketch from my photo! 😭 It's so cute.

Chalko the crocheted triceratops is ready for the #EGU25 session on Lagrangian and time series perspectives of complex systems
April 29, 2025 at 2:10 PM
Amidst the horrors of being a geoscientist nowadays is one nice thing: At #EGU25, artist-in-residence @geologytalk.bsky.social gave out crocheted triceratops!
Now to name mine. I'm open to any suggestions but have 3 ideas of my own which I'll justify in a thread:
- Mersenne
- Delenn
- Chalko
- Nick

Sinners might be my favourite vampire film in addition to just being a great movie overall. A breath of fresh air after my immense disappointment with the latest Nosferatu.
