Everywhere I look lately a cis-Male comic creator is announcing a female-led project whilst my timelines are flooded with accounts of SA, both adult & minor, and I’ve never been more aware of living in a Patriarchal society.
Yes, I would like to read a romantasy inspired by Bethany and Natasha's quickstep, thank you. #StrictlyComeDancing
I very foolishly chose what I thought was the best episode of TAS to watch completely forgetting that, yes, it's very good, but also EMOTIONS. Gah. (Twas Yesteryear, for anyone who knows the show.)

Was very excited to find out this morning I've been plagiarised. My essay in Uncanny Magazine on The Mind Robber and AI Slop was nicked and rewritten by AI and posted to another website. Oh, the ironic hilarity.

Ooh! Yes, Davros is a top-tier Big Finish, beautiful script, gorgeous performances from Baker and Molloy. Very recommended. And currently very cheap!
Lance Parkin@lanceparkin.bsky.social · 2w agoMy BF audio Davros, which people liked, is cheap in the BF sale. A sixth Doctor x Davros collab v. a techbro + his Nazi historian wife. Who's the real bad guy here, Davros or capitalism? (It's Davros, obviously). No Daleks, and the twist isn't 'Daleks'. (Also: I, Davros - a sort of spin off).
Binge-watching Outlander, and rather delighted at the current episode which has a Scot from the 18th century watching Blake's 7.
An admiral is taking command of the Enterprise, you say? An admired-by-all admiral, no less? I know this trope! (God bless Starfleet and their infinite supply of dodgy admirals.) #StrangeNewWorlds

Will a British ban on trade with Israeli settlements, 60 years too late and done only after at least 75,000 Palestinians were massacred, cripple the Israeli settler enterprise? No. But, Miliband's forceful break with decades of feigned ignorance, helplessness, and complicity is a watershed moment.

#Denmark built so much wind that some blustery hours the turbines out-produce what the whole country is using. When that happens, the extra power doesn’t sit idle. It moves through Denmark’s links into the wider European network and heads to neighbors like Germany, Norway, Sweden. #ActOnClimate
Here it is, hanging out in Honiara, Solomon Islands. It's been a great companion in my evenings here this week. Purchased in Sydney, inspired by the shoutout on Verity. Go Liz!

Jimmy Sangster delights me by sending a couple of kids into an abandoned flat to find a snow-covered wilderness, a wooden hut, and a silent man with an axe. Which makes up for the blah pilot of Circle of Fear. Tis the latest Patreon episode of Telefantasy Time Jump! www.patreon.com/TelefantasyT...
