You have not read Doctor Who till you have read it in its original French.

Vous n'avez pas lu Doctor Who tant que vous ne l'avez pas lu dans sa version originale française.

Recently, my book THEY CALLED US ENEMY was banned – again – in Tennessee. Book bans are out of control. Huge parts of American history are being restricted. To join me in standing up for the freedom to read, go to pen.org/action. @penamerica.bsky.social @topshelfcomix.bsky.social @idwpublishing.com

This is the premise for Monsters and Other Childish Things the #TTRPG from @arcdreampublishing.bsky.social and it's an amazing game that you should play (and buy my books that I wrote for it)

The Stop Killing Games intuitive is alive. This is not going to save the world from where we are going but we may as well work on some smaller things as well as the big stuff.

Rome Didn't Fall When You Think It Did. Here's Why That Fabricated History Matters Today For 1,500 years, we have picked the wrong time and blamed the wrong person for the fall of Rome.

"Rome’s story then does not warn us of the danger of barbarous outsiders toppling a society from within. It instead shows how a false claim that a nation has perished can help cause the very problems its author invented."
- Edward J. Watts

Donald Trump does not want to be King, he wants to be Pharaoh, and he has decided to be buried with his wealth* when he dies.

* I'm not sure if America wishes to be buried with him.

If the film was too long then about 15-20 probably should be removed. Acting is good enough, visuals are interesting, direction is good. I just feel the pacing from editing could have been better.

I watched Planete B. Comforting to see that Grenoble remains a dystopian hell scape in the future. I can’t decide if it’s too long or too short. The themes are under developed and either need to have been cut down or expanded on. If too short, it would have been better to split it into two films.

Sadie(Black cat) getting comfortable on my coat (dark blue jacket) under my hat (wide brim Australian style brown leather hat) - Sadie looks like she has pulled it over her eyes). Sidenote, there is an idiot human (or as she refers to me, her mule, or can opener) in the shot who she is pinning down.

One place above the demotion zone on duolingo for this week.

This weeks life goal achieved. I feel like the Norwich City FC of duolingo. Not managed to get promoted, but through blind luck managed to be demoted either. Sorry if you did get demoted from my league, I am here through luck over playing that birds evil games. Duo the Jigsaw of language learning.

The youtube channels for Sesame Street tend to be quite good in Spanish(Latin American), Dutch, Japanese and German seem to be quite well provided for. French, Italian and Portuguese, not so great. If you want French viewing I would suggest Les Schtroumpfs (the smirfs) and Les Shadoks bulk exposure.

I am now certain Russell T Davies has been pulling a two season (as well as 5 special episodes) long con on viewers of Doctor Who.

Well played if true. Let's see if he can stick the landing.

It's not so much I don't understand what I am hearing, it's more my brain is rejecting what it's hearing as completely nonsensical.

I have entered the insanity stage of my french rewatch of Fast and Furious. Fast 7 - I have had to watch them 3 times (French, English, French) - and even with that understanding, they are padded cell worthy nuts.

If they put it in other languages Netflix will have the most powerful binge series of all time for language learners.

As a dyslexic, I need to work in markup correction on a frequent enough basis to justify a printer. The change of media helps for long term self improvement better than clicking a box in word.

Its not the paper that gets you its the ink. I don't leave my printer plugged in, not enough plugs. There are 3 wireless printers around where I live that are on all the time.
