Years ago I coined the milleneuve, which is a unit to measure how horrible the sky color is based on Villeneuve films. Blade Runner 2049 is around 900mn. Today is around 250 I'd say. (It's a very scientific scale.)

Surely that’s just Gary Barlow’s ginormous son?

No I'm sorry, there isn't time.

I have a feeling this is the first time I've smuggled a Monty Python reference into a script.

I am going to be spending the rest of my day and possibly my week thinking about "Werner the Herzog" and quite frankly it's the last thing I needed

Juro que tem dias que eu acordo pensando nisso aqui:

It’s insane. It’s the perfect distillation of how Brexit has epically fucked the Tory party. 10 years on and they’ve binned off every sane and thoughtful member and replaced them with simpletons, liars and lunatics. All to keep the Brexit/far right myths alive.

Good morning Bluesky ☀️ My grandad told me he saw the Titanic - from the outset he warned all the people that the ship would sink, but nobody listened to him. He knew he was right and didn't give up. He warned them again & again, until eventually they kicked him out of the cinema.

Don't tell me we have to rescue Matt Damon AGAIN?

Finally, there's an *economic* coin-trick: "AI will destroy jobs." Sure, yes, AI is destroying jobs. But there's a vast difference between "You got fired because an AI can do your job" and "You got fired because your boss was convinced that the AI can do your job, even though it *cannot*." 45/

A handy conversion chart: 1 Wales = 20,782 km2 1 Deciwales = 2,078.2 km2 1 Centiwales = 207.8 km2 1 Milliwales = 20.8 km2 1 Microwales = .021 km2 or 20,782 m2 1 Nanowales = 20.782 m2 1 Picowales = 0.21 m2 1 football pitch = roughly 344 nanowaleses

Apologies: I’m not online much, I haven't paid any attention to Rod Liddle for a long time, I didn't really know his extremes. I do now: I wouldn’t have posted if I'd known. I’ve seen death of difficult people up close (and its impact on others): that’s the only reason it was on my mind as an issue.

Ghosts are people who died changing the duvet cover

Grant Tanaka@granttanaka.bsky.social · 2d ago

reminder that your all your bedsheets are potential ghosts

Unironically? I'd set it in the 1800s with Jaws hunting an old whaling ship. Show the horror of industrial whaling and the working conditions on those hellish floating factories, then have Jaws rip it all to shreds while toxic masculine whale hunters try and fail to kill something that fights back.

weinberg@weinbergs.bsky.social · 7mo ago

let's pretend: Universal announces a screenwriting contest for Jaws 5. What's your pitch?

If Rod Liddle has shown us anything it’s that we should try to live a life where so many people don’t celebrate your death.

"It's what he would have wanted!"

Running Dog@runningdog.bsky.social · 2d ago

What more fitting way to remember Rod Liddle’s life and work than by making nasty jokes about someone who can’t answer back

carving “this machine kills fascists” into a 60lb rare earth magnet and launching it into a data center

A good time to recall the time a newspaper reported that the death of actor Brian Glover had been caused by a "brian tumour"?
