It's say progressivism has to be distinct from middle-of-the-road centrism, or what does it describe?

If you're wondering how bad things were at Pixar for women, the answer is pretty horrifyingly bad.

blew all my daylight savings down at the tracks. now it's dark all the time.

Yes, that is pretty much my act.

I very much enjoyed @misterabk.bsky.social in Bristol, and you should go and see him. Especially if you are in #Coventry.

You don't want to read the Controversies section of his Wikipedia entry.

A true "what, and give up showbiz?" moment.

The 15th Anniversary Escape Pod book, but the typefaces makes it look a bit like ESCAPE POO.

Tres, tres gut!

I didn't notice the bottle, so I did not interpret it as a slur.

Is it me, or did the story stop every time a song started? It felt like, maybe, one song ended with the character/s in a different state.

It is usually 1hr 20 plus 20 for the interval.(But it depends on the venue. Sometimes there's no interval and occasionally it's just a straight hour.)

I'm gonna - not mention it!

That show sold out, so I didn't need to bribe you with a mouse. (Thanks for coming!)

I accept that it's a stylistic choice - mocap actors imitating anime gestures. For me, it's quite off-putting.
