I just want to shout out someone on here who was one of the many people who made the Daily Tism audio sitcom scripts so awesome but had possibly the most difficult job in the process, which is the script editing & punch-up work. I was *astounded* by @scriblit.bsky.social

It’s a great moment to remember that in the leadup to this popular uprising, the first major gut-punch was delivered by Budapest Pride. Poetic justice. 🇭🇺🏳️‍🌈

I'm embarrassed to say it took me WAY TOO LONG to realize this. You don't have to write in order, you don't have to always write scenes that will be part of the final story.

By rook or crook, just write the stuff you're excited about and let that momentum carry you through the 1st draft #Scriptsky

I don’t know why companies take so long to pay invoices, it’s such a massive dopamine hit. Just get an autistic person in who really wants people to be safe and fed and let them go to town.

They wouldn’t have consultant jobs after the training posts either as there is no expansion there. This is not going to work. The residents have their eye on the future.

Arson attack on Jewish charity ambulances being investigated by counter-terror police Police say they are looking for three suspects after the Hatzola ambulances were set on fire.

This kind of anti semitic attack in London is terrifying. And the fact that so many Jewish Londoners have to feel like it's unsurprising now is so cruel. I won't say "we're better than that"...because we're Britain, we're not. But it's horrifying. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

It says a lot about science education in the UK when students do more scientific experiments in food preparation and nutrition GCSE than science GCSE.

The experiments are half the fun of science! We are growing a generation of less capable scientists or worse putting people off science.

This movie opens April 10 in NY and LA and then goes wider drip by drip. A career high for me and such a joy to work with these incredible actors.

Sinking heart feeling, reading this.

I normally dislike the phrase ‘cowardly attack’ but this seems a prime example. Despicable antisemitic attack on soft target that will harm people who are old, sick and vulnerable (and will add to fuel for those who want to sow division in our city).

It’s Long Covid Awareness Day (which I think should be the Ides of March, for reasons that will become clear.)

Some of you have heard this before. But I wanted to share my Long Covid story, because I think you should hear it.

On my birthday in November 2022, I woke up with Covid.

Sick of depressing and scary world news?

Here’s a timeline cleanse… how many of my friend’s lurcher puppies fit on one person’s lap?

They will be off to new homes from next weekend onwards and I will miss seeing them! (Still some available, btw - Herefordshire/Worcs/Shrops border)
