Will certainly be checking this out. The Gilligan episodes of The X-Files are, for me, among the very best: Soft Light, Drive, Small Potatoes, Paper Hearts, Je Souhaite, Unruhe (still terrifying).

On this day 40 years ago the first episode of of a masterpiece was shown on BBC2 & repeated on BBC1 almost immediately.

Forever grateful to my 6th form English teacher for recording it on vhs and playing it to our class over several lessons though it was certainly not curriculum!

Grainy photo in black and white, its roughness accentuating the mist that hangs over the dewy field we see. In the field, three young fox kits leap and play amidst the stalks.

Word of the Day is β€˜tandsmΓΈr’, from Danish. It describes bread that is buttered so thickly you can see tooth marks in it after every bite. Its literal translation? β€˜Tooth butter’.

The Benefits of Walking Away

1. Makes bad things disappear quickly 
2. Gives everyone optimal view of your back
3. Answers guestion, "I wonder what would happen if I just walked away"

When a network lays off one of America’s greatest satirists, it’s not because he failed. It’s because he succeeded too loudly.

The problem is no one making them seems to understand what made the good movies (1 & 3 only) work, possibly not even Spielberg & Lucas themselves. If it’s not deeply rooted in atheistic Indy’s personal struggle with evidence of a biblical God, it’s just some guy nicking stuff & getting into scrapes

If you use Telegram now’s probably a good time to stop.

Musk has just signed a one-year partnership with Telegram to integrate his AI Grok into the message app.

xAI will invest $300 million, cash and equity, and share 50% of Grok subscription revenue.
