“Wedges to right of them,
Wedges to left of them,
Wedges in front of them,
Into the jaws of Death,
Into the mouth of hell
Rode Peter Dutton and the Coalition.”
Opposition Leader Peter Dutton has sworn to repeal laws that will give workers the right to ignore unreasonable out-of-hours communications from their bosses if the Coalition wins the next federal election. https://t.co/M5d5Jj3LQl
As someone who has been writing homepage copy this afternoon, I can relate. Some of my comments and design instructions have longer word counts than the copy they're referring to!
i hate how easy it is to say “i only did 34 lines of dialogue today ☹️” when it’s not just the copy but also all the work before it, filling out the LineID, CharacterID, status, tone (whisper, shout etc), context comment, developer comment, localization comment, and tags as well
I’m sure there will one day be a very serious documentary and/or Oscar-winning film of these court days of Trump’s.
But can I possibly venture that a sitcom inspired by Trump’s various legal teams isn’t completely off the cards?
RW: Let's show this--
Habba: Objection
Judge Kaplan: Ground?
Habba: It's prejudicial.
Judge Kaplan: All evidence is prejudicial against the party it is offered against
@jayjlevans2000@Prof_Quiteamess Dixon ran til 1976 and Z Cars til 1978 so both fit. I've no idea on Z Cars sets though. Softly Softly: Task Force, the Z Cars spin-off, also ran til '76 and could conceivably feature a WPC.
X, formerly known as Twitter, on Tuesday suspended the accounts of multiple prominent journalists and left-leaning commentators and comedians, many of whom were critical of X owner Elon Musk. https://t.co/H9Wc3ColV3
@IanLevine Got chatting to Dan Hall when he came to Australia back in 2013 who said this was what the DVD range began to struggle with towards the end. So I can believe the Collection team would try to avoid the same.
(Not sure how the Season 2 box did but I suspect it was a test case).
@IanLevine There's also a risk of exhausting the more commercial colour seasons so that only the BW seasons remain, which didn't sell nearly as well on DVD. That would make it harder to secure the budget going forward. Lower commercial projections balanced against greater restoration costs.
@tweeting_keith@IanLevine @Oldmankrondas They've already confirmed the logo will stay the same to ensure consistency across the sets. Apparently RTD specifically asked them not to start mucking about with the brand designs on the Collections.
Suddenly all of the quaint Xmas and NY traditions I cherish from the north of England seem meh by comparison.

Every year, hundreds of people in Bulgaria don elaborate monster costumes, often with large bells attached, and parade through villages and into people's homes to scare off evil and bring good luck. These "monsters" are called kukeri. The costumes vary from region to region: some are covered in long fur that streams in the wind as the kukeri dance, while others are elaborately embroidered and embellished with beads, glass, and bone, topped off with an equally adorned mask. Many costumes have leather belts with dozens of large bells attached to them. Subtle the kukeri are not.
The costumes are designed to scare away evil with their loud clanging and monstrous appearance. Traditionally, these costumes are either inherited or carefully sewn and embellished by the owner. Until recently, all kukeri were men, and in many places, taking part in the kukeri dance was seen as a rite of passage. Often, costumes are passed down from one generation to the next, and new costumes are made by the owner, possibly with help from local craftspeople. While needlework in Bulgaria was considered women's work, the kukeri were an exception: men would work on their costumes throughout the year.
Kukeri costumes are incredible pieces of folk art and offer a unique glimpse back in time because the tradition of the kukeri is quite old. In fact, it is so old that we don't know when it started. Some estimates suggest that the kukeri originated more than 4,000 years ago. While they are pagan in origin, the kukeri now appear around important Christian holidays. In some areas of Bulgaria, you can find the kukeri between Christmas and the Epiphany (January 6), and in other areas, the kukeri come the Sunday before Lent.

It looks like the police in Jackson Mississippi have made their own personal burial grounds. 215 bodies of missing people found buried behind the jail.
