I'll be getting an early night for sure! Thank you, people ask me back subsequent years so I guess I'm doing something right.

It's rude you can't, frankly. I'll have a word for you.

MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT STOP Ugh.

It's a tricky one. I would much rather not, but I do have a certain amount of experience and expertise around this stuff.

I hate the lead up, but channel enough confidence for the session, then utterly crash and burn afterwards. Lucky I finish at 4, cos I am really flagging now.

Project managers projected at, I'm now post "standing in front of and talking to actual people" shattered and ready for a nap.

I am not a natural "right look at me" sort of person, have to force a performance for this stuff. Still it's done, they didn't look horrified, hopefully they'll be fine.

Happy Birthday Bertie! Have a birthday boop!

It's funny because it's true. Oh wait. Bah.

I've not seen The Brid with White Hair, but I have watched Pathfinder and enjoyed it. Proper heroic stuff and refreshing it's not in the Greco-Roman pantheon of heroes.

"She wants to root him! She wants to root him!"

I think I should go watch it. I owe it to myself to see it on a massive screen don't I?

❤️

Beyond delighted to see Hercules Returns is being screened as part of Forbidden Worlds this year. I love that silly ridiculous stupid movie.

Some great fantasy films in the programme!

Poo Labour. Is that anything?

Morrissey cancelled ??

Oh and my book tour starts soon Robinince.com

Sounds like self-care to me. Hope you're feeling better soon.

Oh, so now fenestration is gendered? That writer is going to be well vexed.

Seen.

I set off from the living room sofa, through check-in, baggage, duty free… finally to take flight in the pages of a novel.

Tits do happen, actually.

This is such a key element. Shortcutting via AI misses so much of the process needed to learn. If you don't do "the work" then you don't get to critically evaluate as you go. It's the difference between having a layman's understanding of a subject and mastering it.

Monday morning Bluesky people, any more thoughts on AI for arts and humanities in HE?

Morning. Up on campus to run an intro to making videos lecture session for some project management students. They're making pitch videos for an assignment.

I'm fine thanks. Nice of you to ask, actually.

Mmmmmm. 🤤

The Zanuzzi Washer Dryer Pasty Maker Combo, yes.

An insect bouncer checks the ID of a caterpillar. The ID shows a butterfly. The caterpillar smiles enthusiastically showing his braces.

Almost annoyingly clever Tommy Siegel cartoon.

He's great.

I think he might be.

Yeah, I'd snaffle that.

Ah that's easy.
