Huge changes in technology and culture ARE still happening, just not in places we care to look. Cos we’re old. I bet fans of opera didn’t think much was happening in the 60s.

I *LIKE* the Green Party. Hence my query. I don’t get why, in the wake of Labour letting so many people down, the Greens aren’t cleaning up.

Couldn’t Corbyn and Sultana have saved a lot of faff by just joining the Green Party?

Day made! 😊

Yep. There was a stop motion series of it from 1991/1992?, made by Cosgrove Hall (who made all those other things on my list.) Superb animation! Criminally forgotten and underrated. Barely a trace of it online, but I had it on VHS and adored it.

(Do I pass my “are you old enough for bluesky” test now?)

@tiernandouieb.bsky.social Ooh!! You’re here! Hello!!

Premium only for Danger Mouse, apparently.

(No Avenger Penguins, no Victor and Hugo, no Truckers, and you have to pay to watch Danger Mouse or the BFG, but STILL!!!!)

*****EVERY EPISODE OF COUNT DUCKULA IS AVAILABLE FOR FREE ON ITVX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!*****

Wish I’d known that was yours when I saw someone wearing that T-shirt in my audience last week!

Jiminy Christ. If your very literal criticism and review doesn’t count as “criticism and review”, then what on Earth is supposed to?

I did one of these 5 years ago. How are you supposed to act normal in a “let’s see how normal you are” test?

Anyway, my results came back positive to absolutely nobody’s surprise, and since then, I’ve felt much snugger in my own skin. Hope it has the same positive effect for you! x

Oh wow!! Massive congrats!!!

Got kids now, innit

Nürnberg doesn't begin with Ne.

Are you saying we need to do a "Team Project" instead of a "Shared Project" in order to be able to both work off our own hard drives?

To celebrate 'This Way Up - When Maps Go Wrong' coming out, join me and TV's @markcooperjones TOMORROW at 8pm for our first ever Reddit AMA. Ask us anything you like!

No. Boringly we've also changed our photos in all the other places, including YouTube which is where our videos are still going to go.

Aw, look. @markcooperjones.bsky.social and I have now got adorable matching Bluesky photos.

It's sort of down and to the right, in a southeasterly sort of direction

Yes.

THIS WAY UP Go to THIS WAY UP.

Just thought I'd mention that I've just changed my profile photo for the first time in about 10 years.

(technically about 10 years if the other place counts)

On a completely related note, you can preorder a copy of the MAP MEN BOOK by clicking on the link after this full stop. lnk.to/mapmen

If two people are working on the same "shared project" in Premiere Pro, does literally everything, including the massive rushes need to be stored in the same place in the cloud?

Or, does Premiere let you both work off your own hard drives at home, as long as they've both got the same files on them?

Comic strip by Stephen Collins, it begins with a nighttime city scene. In the next few panels, a mysterious figure, giant in the moonlight, walks towards us through the skyline. His feet echo "boom, boom" in the empty night. A large title panel declares this character's name: THE TW*T COLLECTOR. He stands, giant, unseen in the empty city night, wearing a big pointy hat on his head, and a sort of long smock. He is carrying a large sack in his hand. Slowly, he raises his arm, his arm extends, freakishly long, longer still, through the open window of a tower block. It reaches inside someone's home, and slowly withdraws, now clutching a protesting, terrified man. The man's wife comes to the window to watch his departure. slowly, the giant raises the little man and inspectes him in his hand. After a pause, the man says "b-but I'm not a tw*t!" There is another pause, after which his wife, calmly from off screen, says "you are a tw*t, dear". The Tw*t Collector summarily throws the man in his bag, which we now see is full of screaming people and is labelled TW*TS, then stomps off into the distance, through the moonlit city.

Sometimes, I long for him

@thehornesection.bsky.social Hello! Can I pick your brains about something…?
