@neilhimself Honestly, this is how I expected it to go. The worst thing that could happen to 90% of the actors is that they can just temporary find another job for the same amount of money. Or they could just work with studios who give them a better contract. The business executives don't have any other option.
@neilhimself Once again …… I am sooooo tired of TRYING to read articles that either want you to sign up for membership or ask 20 questions before you can read. ggggrrrrrrrrr
How ushers rate audience response: when asked if we'd had any feedback post-performance, i said that I'd seen only two phone checks (was on balcony so can see entire audience) for the entire thing and the boss said approvingly 'That is good.' #TheOceanattheEndoftheLane@neilhimself
#introductions Hi! 👋 I'm John and I'm an academic #librarian in #LosAngeles where I head up my library's outreach and engagement team. I've been working in libraries for about 15 years.
I love spending time #gardening, listening to podcasts, wine tasting (read: drinking), reading, and being with my family.
We might buy a piano soon.
I was an avid user of the bird site since 2007 but stopped posting over a year ago. I miss the community of library folk I found there. 😢
Which reminds me, I must post today’s podcast. My guest is a legally blind author who writes blind characters with agency. I am in awe! (I am vision impaired, that’s not ableist inspo pron, it’s “omg one of my tribe beat bigotry to do this awesome thing”.)
Hallo Welt!
Bin Autorin (SF, Fantasy), zeichne gerne mit krita, also ohne KI Gedöns, schreibe Blogartikel zu Selbstversorgerthemen und liebe die Natur.
Gibt es hier noch mehr Autoren, Buchverrückte oder Hashtags, denen ich folgen könnte? #neuhier
@Onechtokeia
Hallo Kollegin!
Schreibe selbst Fantasy. Für Garten und Gemüse ist meine Holde zuständig.😁
Ich klatsch mal meine Hashtag-Sammlung rein, vielleicht hilft die Dir was.
Oh, drei Gruppen sind auch dabei:
Elon lied about the monkeys — and he shouldn't be trusted to put his Neuralink chips in human brains.
"They are claiming they are going to put a safe device on the market, and that's why you should invest," Ryan Merkley at the Physicians Committee, told Wired. "And we see his lie as a way to whitewash what happened in these exploratory studies."
Really heartbreaking reading what happened to the monkeys.
People quite rightly think of Elizabeth Holmes as a fraud for making false medical claims about what the Theranos machines could do. So why aren't Elon's claims at Neuralink being held to the same level of scrutiny?
Okay #retrogaming - I got Kodi set up on my #nvidia#shieldtv with the internet archive game launcher... and I just re-re-remembered that my beloved #steamcontroller won't work with it... I have no idea why I keep forgetting this.
I'm looking for 4 cheap bt controllers but the market is flooded... any #suggestions ?
Ha ha, to each their own, for me it was one of the worst controllers I’ve ever used, and using the SC reminded me a lot of it and I also never could get comfortable with the trackpads regardless of how much I tried to force myself to use it in different genres of games. I’m glad you enjoyed them though! Maybe look for a larger controller if there more comfortable to you while you’re on your hunt.
The main theme from @neilhimself's #GoodOmens, composed by David Arnold, was one of the delights performed by the BBC Concert Orchestra and Huddersfield Choral Society at the #BBCProms this year. The concert was conducted by Anna-Maria Helsing.
