@IfBooksPod Atomic Habits *does* do real harm when it [the physical book!] is offered instead of workplace disability accommodations for adhd and cognitive disabilities. Yep, that's a thing.

officially starting on trying to learn this thing. wish me luck! 🎸

@mjmimages I worked at a company that had a very similar Kelly on the wall outside the kitchen. Nothing had room numbers or labels so if someone was telling a visitor how to find the coffee, you had to describe the art. Forever scarred by how people described that thing.

@JSRichman What, people DON'T do that? I used to end up pulling them off the shelf like show and tell.

@bwidow12thFlr @blgtylr I might need to have that pre-screened for emotional damage ;)

@mwiederrecht @Licia_He I'm a huge fan of features, as long the work can stand without them. Esp technical process.
But I'm an art historian and a geek so I *always* want more. YMMV, of course, and probably a link out or something lets the viewer opt in (va having to opt out of overload?)
English
@Licia_He That is a very interesting take! I hadn't thought about how features can help people understand how the system was constructed. I guess the question then is whether we want them to understand or simply be mesmerized final the final result😆
English
Talk to me about features, guys. How does their presence or lack thereof contribute to how you think about a collection??? Do features and rarities make a collection stronger?
(This is me about to *not* include features in another collection and wondering what are the consequences of my choice.)

Thread.
The “just asking questions” tactic is remarkably effective.

So all these folks stepping up to defend Harlan Crow with some angle that interprets his Nazi shit as “conversation starters,” understand this for what it is. It’s part of a long-used set of recruitment tactics by white supremacists. Just like the Nazis on that farm. 5/

I opened my phone to source a quotation and somehow fell down a wormhole for 60min of opening 27+ tabs and 10 apps, a minor musical identity crisis, and a deep desire to find a cognitive scientist to explain how music and memory work. Need nap.
Still forgot to lookup the quote

@ICooperAuthor Annnnd now I do too. At least it's chasing away the Fall Out Boy song from 2018 whose bridge has been stuck in my head?
Meditation is sometimes just a jukebox on tilt for me.

Mystic: "If you can focus your mind properly, you can--"
Me: "My friend, I have had the opening lyrics of 'Oklahoma' in my head for the last hour and a half."

@camiscribbles Omfg god yes. Lots and lots of books and a poetry fragment and a bit of pop song that don't seem to exist outside my head no matter who I ask or what I search. I've come to the conclusion it's (obviously) a thinned out echo of a parallel universe
English
you guys ever have a strange piece of media you KNOW you consumed as a child but can only remember in spiking flashes and hazy fragments so you never seem to find it even when it eats at you between random blinks and breaths and days and you search it up but always yield nothing
English
@mjmimages And holy shit I just googled for that lyric and it's a Fall Out Boy song from 2018 and I'm having a full-on musical identity crisis rn. That wasn't the cafe I thought I was walking into.
English
@mjmimages I can't hear the Aaliyah because I've been catapulted back to "I'll keep wearing black until they make a darker colour" suddenly dropping into a bluesy staccato "and I became such a strange shape / such a strange shape from trying to fit in" and a chug and a swell.

@TobyHadoke @grahamkw @trenowden Another Hopkins photo; same hair line, same even teeth with the two front angle slightly like a V. (Although the original image looks a lot like a young Clint Eastwood, tbh)
English
@trenowden @grahamkw I think that’s a good shout. Smile the same in older Hopkins, face v similar in younger one (see pictures).
As an adjunct, he was Victor Carroon in the Australian drama school Quatermass Experiment part one TV test that turned up last year.
English
A bit more context around this. I'm reasonably certain this photo dates from around 1971(ish). And it was among a folder of paperwork pertaining to an Australian drama which was ultimately abandoned. So this is probably an Australian actor who was maybe considered for the lead.
Graham Kibble-White@grahamkw
Doing some research, and this photo - torn into four pieces - slips out of a folder. I know I should know: But who is he, please?

@sourcitruslady I suppose it's unlikely they're first or only ones to saw it, but this SNL performance is unforgettable. (sending you back the earworm!) youtube.com/watch?v=vZn40c…

@sourcitruslady It does. So does the EARWORM you just planted in my brain.
