I can’t believe that they managed to make Weasel a tragic and sympathetic character #creaturecommandos

Carter has passed. An accomplished man. A brilliant legacy. Although for many of us he died years ago when he refused to condemn, gamer gate

MBIE is providing an update on the Horizon Europe Top-Up funding scheme.  

Change to Top-Up fund eligibility for projects in Cluster 2  
From 1 February 2025, projects in Cluster 2, Culture, Creativity & Inclusive Society, will no longer be eligible for funding through the MBIE Horizon Europe Top-Up funding scheme.  
This change is being made to align the Top-Up fund settings with the Government’s priorities for Science, Innovation & Technology investments, and direction outlined in the Catalyst Fund investment Plan. Research organisations who have submitted a proposal for a Cluster 2 project which opened before 1 February 2025 and who registered for Top-Up funding with MBIE within 10 working days of the European Commission (EC) call for proposals closing will still be eligible for Horizon Europe Top-Up funding.”

The attack on the humanities and social sciences by the New Zealand government continues.

That’s exactly it. All the underinvesting, pausing, relitigating and legal challenges will just leave us in the same spot.

We need progress. I wish they’d just let us get on with it.

Just saw Wicked all that effort in sets, costume, makeup, performance was utterly let down by flat boring shot composition and unmotivated lighting. It felt like a first dress rehearsal that went really well but the director has a lot of notes.

Honestly the entire low barrier places and orgs have largely disappeared from most creative industries. It’s incredibly hard to break into since every place is only surviving by the skin of their teeth and don’t really have the capacity to do anything other than sure bets.

I’m just a guy looking at a girl asking for an emotionally resonating anime where characters get into conflict that’s resolved by talking it out.
