a new reality tv show called So you think you can write Doctor Who

twelve episodes, twelve contestants - a mix of annoying middle aged sci fi authors, fan fic authors and random people off the street

a variety of against the clock writing tasks, big finish scripts, ability to interact with actors without shouting at them and challenges where you have no budget or doctor for an episode

judged by solely by christopher eccleston

this is how you find the new doctor who showrunner

Some of y'all have never regularly gone to a bar down the street from a late night pancake place inside an old church and it shows.

Just watched Adam Conover (of Adam Ruins Everything) make such a solid point that I think we should spread far and wide. Yes, having AI write your emails is lazy, sure, but people love being lazy. We need to really emphasize that sending AI emails (or using AI responses on social media, or publishing AI flyers, or or or) is rude.

It's rude. You're making someone take their time to read something you couldn't bother to write. You're telling them they were so unimportant you couldn't be bothered to actually take the time to say something yourself. And frankly, you're lying about it while you're at it.

It's rude.

every farming game is either called sunshine ranch and it's about a guy with a lot of free time and a concept of a farm that's more akin to a petting zoo or it's called mass industrial agriculture farming tycoon simulator and it's basically a spreadsheet where you get to drive a tractor and look at pngs of a corn monoculture

A conversation with my wife about Bellara

[veronicaawakens]

Would you say Batman is better written by rightwingers, because they are not ashamed of him being fascist?

Yes. Obviously that's the reason I love Chuck Dixon Batman comics so much and famously hate Grant Morrison Batman comics.

[ceruleana]

project hail mary is a touching and poignant film that leaves you asking questions about humanity like, "wow what if all mainstream media was genuinely good" and "what if book adaptions actually gave a shit about the book in question" and "what if studios hired actors that could actually act, and then let them get a lil wacky with it"

[theauspolchronicles]

Angus Taylor has an estimated 9 properties that he hides from scrutiny behind a family trust. He's only clearly declared 2 on his register of interests. He's made more money off property than being an MP and sold a mansion for $6.77 million back in 2016. He has shareholdings in property management companies of over 3,000 hectares.

You know why he wants to reverse Labor's housing reforms? Because they make him pay a little more tax. That's it. He uses his family trust as a loophole to pay less tax - but Labor's new trust tax reforms would make it less profitable for him.

Immigrants aren't causing a supply and demand issue. Angus Taylor and the Coalition just want you to believe that so they can pocket millions in profit off the housing crisis. They're trying to stir up a racist rage to justify giving themselves a tax break.

[theauspolchronicles]

Also, the housing crisis isn't caused by immigrants. We actually need MORE skilled immigrants to work in construction to build what's necessary.

Also a huge amount of healthcare workers are immigrants. Like 40% were born overseas. Most of them trained overseas. It's quicker to have someone move than to go through several years of medical school.

Internationally educated doctors who want to provide Medicare services must spend their first 10 years working in a regional, rural or remote community. If regional areas want easier access to healthcare then THEY RELY ON MIGRANT HEALTHCARE WORKERS. Rural One Nation/Coalition voters are literally voting against their own self interests.

Also areas with more migrants have increased productivity, employment and economic benefits.

If we drastically reduce immigration it'll tank the economy, make housing LESS AFFORDABLE and also people won't have access to healthcare because there'll be a skills shortage.

So even if we pretend the anti-immigration stance isn't racist it's still fucking stupid.

But hey, at least if the Coalition wins Angus Taylor will pay less in tax and you'll see maybe a couple less ethnically diverse people in the street.

oh god sudden thought

so as per various DC social media concepts Clark has a Superman twitter where he posts left-leaning but fairly safe & tame stuff e.g. happy pride from Superman. Clark Kent also has his own twitter account where he posts his actual opinion.

what happens if uh. what happens if he forgets which account he's logged into.

[penny-anna]

scenario 1: what's clearly an official Superman post pops up on some rando journalist's twitter and is noticed before he can delete it. leads to controversy when people conclude that Superman has hired this Clark Kent person to do his social media. Clark now has to deal w the fact that everyone thinks he's Superman's social media manager. employers at the Daily Planet very confused as to why he didn't tell them about his side gig

scenario 2: world wakes up to Superman tweeting about how he hates the police

[the-legal-shipper]

Scenario 2: “world wakes up to Superman tweeting about how he hates the police” and then the Shazam twitter account starts agreeing with him and that’s how the world finds out that two of the most powerful heros both hate the police

[penny-anna]

Billy, seeing what Superman just tweeted: oh cool we're allowed to say fuck the police now!!

[offonaherosjourney]

Someone tweets if Bruce Wayne pays taxes, and Bruce accidentally replies with his Batman account with a simple "Yes", so people start to think that besides beating up villains, Batman also spends his time staring menacingly at billionaires while they fill their taxes to make sure there's no creative accounting going on

[nightblackowlbat]

BruceWayneOfficial: yes, the rumors are true. Batman is my accountant.

[veronicaawakens]

We already know what kind of twitter Clark Kent has though

Mostly he just talks about Panera Bread
