I'm continuing my #deepspacenine podcast with my friend Kat, who has never seen it before. Last time we discussed the magnificent "Profit and Loss" or Casablanca in spaaaace!

I would need to check my music collection to be sure I didn't _already_ listen to a band called Ghost Galaxy tbh, it's so good a band name

Canadian-led team uncovers ‘ghost galaxy’ made almost entirely of dark matter A Canadian-led team has identified an entire galaxy that’s almost completely invisible and a reminder that there’s a lot about the universe astronomers still don’t understand.

Interviewer: You might be able to catch some. It's all completely virtual. It's very simple, but it's also an overlay of physically based information that now exists on top of the real world. Herzog: When two persons in search of a pokémon clash at the corner of Sunset and San Vicente is there violence? Is there murder? Interviewer: They do fight, virtually. Herzog: Physically, do they fight? Interviewer: No- Herzog: Do they bite each other's hands? Do they punch each other?

Happy 30th birthday to Pokémon. Without it, the greatest Werner Herzog quote of all time would not exist.

Like this? 😆

Man I loved that meme trend

I don't care if Monday's blue
Tuesday's grey and Wednesday too
Thursday, I don't care about you
It's

Goodnight from Ashcourt Borough Council, where tonight’s meeting has been disrupted by angry calls to tackle the worsening phantom tram problem. Goodnight from the River Stannis, swollen with rain and a desire to break its banks in revenge for pesticide pollution. Goodnight from Hookland.
