Screenshot from Séance of Blake Manor.
On screen is a typewriter that has a message written on it. 
A cut in panel reads in Irish 
"An é seo an slí amach?"
(Which means "Is this the way out?")

The bottom has a text box showing Mister Ward saying
"If only the language hadn't been taken from us."

Vince Gilligan had the 'Pluribus' credits include 'this show was made by humans'

"I hate AI. AI is the world’s most expensive and energy-intensive plagiarism machine. I think there’s a very high possibility that this is all a bunch of horseshit"

Resetting all the filters to "I'm an adult who has no fear of cursing", has resurrected many of the Irish #Speirgorm that'd vanished from my feed

Rosalind Franklin died at 37 of ovarian cancer attributed to radiation exposure from the methods she & her assistant used to photograph a cross-section of the DNA double helix.

Meanwhile, Watson won a Nobel off that work & survived to the ripe old age of 97 by simply: stealing those notes!

Machine translations never work anyways. It's a glorified dictionary that doesn't understand context

Best example for English is unironically, "shit."

A native English speaker knows batshit, apeshit, dogshit, horseshit, and bullshit are all different concepts.

A dictionary thinks you're at a zoo.

Fascinated, as an older woman openly watched reality TV on her phone! She left and was replaced by a MUCH older gentleman who is either a TikTok fiend or who has been saving all the little videos people send him for just this moment, that he might share his experience with us

Sitting in the waiting area to get what will hopefully be my last MRI and listen, I was barraged with enough “smartphones are ruining you youth“ articles that I’m gonna need reparations in the form of “Wow Old People Will Just Play Shit Out Loud” op eds

I LOVE Fiadh, she has such a wry authority! it was so much fun giving the speech on the links between land and mythology. I love how much folkore and myth her character drops as well! I’m delighted to be involved with a project showcasing Irish myth & folklore - and a fantastic work of art to boot!
