@andrew I’ve been watching your van videos and finding them really interesting. I have no intention of building a campervan but it scratches my itch to know how everything ever is done.

Also, it’s slightly odd seeing you without a radio and a look of low level panic on your face.

I regret taking the advice of the great poets Disturbed and getting down with the sickness. It’s nowhere near as cool as they make it sound.

My brother and I have just replaced degrees of Kevin Bacon with hops to the bridge a USS Enterprise. It’s surprisingly quick for most actors.

Putting speakers on phones was a mistake and when I’m elected Benevolent Dictator of the World I will outlaw them. I will also require a headphone jack in their place though, I’m not a monster.

No, Gemini. I don’t need your help to summarise this one line email.

After the terrible Section 31 Paramount made it up to me by reminding me I hadn’t seen any of Lower Decks past the first season, so I watched it all in two days. It’s a truly lovely thing if you’re the sort of nerd who grew up watching Star Trek.

Despite my better judgement I watched Section 31, the Star Trek film presumably made so Paramount wouldn’t lose the production grants when they cancelled the TV series. It is dire. They compressed the series into 95 minutes of incoherent plotting, characters I couldn’t care less about, and fight scenes which are all at least five minutes too long.

I somehow ended up on a mailing list for video editing plugins and I’m not even mad because now I know you can get an After Effects plugin for adding elephants to your video. $40 for all the elephants you want who can “do almost anything (keeping a profile-view)”.

Today in ominous commit messages: “Add a confirmation step for fleet actions”

Late to the party on Severance because I dropped it mid-season for several months just before it really started going hard. Now very up for the second season.
