@iconawrites That's very kind of you, but naturally, I see only the flaws. Anyway, improving with each picture. Turns out I like learning. I just didn't like classrooms.

@willhj79 This is incredible!

Please cultivate an interest in art, history, anything. If you don’t stay curious, you risk becoming one of those adults who think of nothing beyond coveting expensive cars/bags/whatever, and gossiping about who does or does not have money. An unfathomably boring existence.

@IndianaGPA Why do you hate that tyre so much? What did it ever do to you?

This one is for the Ladies 😂😂

@Movies_analyst My company subtitled the restored version of the film that Mosfilm did a few years ago. I personally did the final stages of subtitle editing. It's the most anti-war film imaginable. Crushing. Shame Putin has obviously never seen it.

Elem Klimov the director of Come and See (1985), said that the movie was so intense that “ambulances were sometimes called” to take away “particularly impressionable viewers.” After one screening, an elderly man stood up and identified himself as “a former soldier and officer of the Wehrmacht.” The officer confirmed the film's events were accurate and stated: "I will testify: everything that is told in this film is the truth. And the most frightening and shameful thing for me is that this film will be seen by my children and grandchildren".

@Mary_ork Here’s a left-of-field one: The Old Wooden House. The only kids’ book ever designed to ensure no child is awake to hear the end of it. That’s right, knocks ‘em out cold. amzn.eu/d/08VFB1D9

It's almost april so I'm once again asking for your books. Every April I pick 4-10 indie books to read and possibly review. While I like standalone horror and scifi, I'm open to any genre right now. So, go nuts. Drop your links below!

@gr8writingtips Pis’s of.

no one actually notices grammatical errors so who care's

@SawyerMerritt Would that secure over 25% ownership for Elon? Does anyone know how to do the maths on that?

A Tesla and SpaceX merger feels inevitable at this point.

@PWestoff @JohnCleese “No prospective government”? Has he not heard of Restore Britain?

Colonel Kemp predicts religious war in Britain. I believe this is unavoidable. There is no negotiation with Islam. You either resist or submit. There is no third option and never has been over 1,400 years of violent Islamic imperialism.

@BitcoinBoomer12 @SoNowUknow2 OK, bitcoin.

@SoNowUknow2 Timely reminder that X members are EXTREMELY unrepresentative of the wider populace.

Who do you want as PM of the UK? (1 day poll. A repost will reach more people, thanks)

@AnneHatfieldVO @JoshPhillipsPhD I really don’t know what it means.

What the hell does this even mean? Don't answer that. I know exactly what it means and it's stupid.

@elonmusk I love that idea.

Optimus+PV will be the first Von Neumann probe, a machine fully capable of replicating itself using raw materials found in space

@Kristennetten @BioavailableNd How very Russian of you.

@BioavailableNd No shoes in my house & I immediately wash my hands upon entering.

@fesshole Oh, grow a pair. Imagine how relieved she’ll be when she finds out it was all a waste of time.

When the wife's at work I put the washing in together on a 40 quick wash, no one notices the difference, washing machine didn't explode, and it was done simply rather than 12 separate 4 hour washes, you're wrong Lucy. Obviously I can't tell you you're wrong, but you're wrong.

@readswithravi @MrSmegOfficial Is there actually a way though? In my experience, you never know the cost of something until much much later. So really what you need to be measuring is how much do you want that thing - whatever the cost?

I’m in love with this sentence: “The best math you can learn is how to calculate the future cost of current decisions.”

Fascinating interaction with a very juvenile “artist”, whose final act was to throw insults around about writers, and then block me! Pathetic little man. @AzureLionProd

@JoshPhillipsPhD You’re missing The Log (Sea of Cortez), glorious tome.

Beautiful Steinbeck collection.

@TheCinesthetic The Broken Circle Breakdown.

What is a movie that "broke" you so hard you can only watch it once, but you would still recommend it to everyone?

@SawyerMerritt @carwowuk @carwowuk dickheads.

Carwow just released a new video to its 11 million YouTube subscribers titled: "Why Tesla Full Self Drive is Pointless!" @carwowuk misleads its viewers into thinking Tesla’s Autopilot is FSD, even though FSD hasn’t been approved in the UK yet. Autopilot isn’t meant for city driving, yet they test of bunch of scenarios that Autopilot wasn't built to do in the first place....

@AzureLionProd @paul_jkrause I don’t think you understand what I’m saying. Perhaps you haven’t read the right novels.

@willhj79 @paul_jkrause Perhaps you haven't read the right short stories, then.

Short stories a great. They're fun to read. Powerful. Impactful. They're great for teaching too. Plot. Structure. Characters. Everything must be meaningful in a short story. They teach what is truly important in the art of story-telling.

@AzureLionProd @paul_jkrause Me. I mean lost for days, weeks. Not just skipping-around-the-corner-mildly-disoriented-for-half-an-hour type of lost. Mind, a friend of mine writ a splendid song called ‘I got lost in my room’, so there’s that. music.apple.com/gb/album/i-got…

@willhj79 @paul_jkrause Who says?
