Good Guys - Gator Days

holy shit...??? legendary animator John Ripa just posted a long lost pencil test from the very first version of Tangled, where it was a cute romcom and Jack Black was the main love interest, omg. we were robbed TWICE #animation #tangled

Fascinating lesson for future attempts to dismantle liberal democracy. Trumpism is failing because his despotism is geared toward delivering a super unpopular, decades old Republican policy agenda. Regime change wars abroad, swingeing cuts at home.

The Religious Right is desperate these days to pretend that "Christian Nationalism" is (1) a recently-invented term and (2) a pejorative invented by their enemies, but neither of those claims is remotely true. Here's a short thread, but I'm sure other historians will have examples too.

"There’s something weirdly magical about the early internet with its clunky fan sites, pixelated GIFs, and blogs with neon text. And while most of it vanished years ago, the Wayback Machine lets you return and experience it all over again." - Sam Singleton, @pcmag.com www.pcworld.com/article/3135...

We needed a new shower curtain for the guest bath and let the 9yo pick the replacement, no regrets whatsoever. It brings me joy every time I walk by and we’ve named the kitten Catney Spears.

News shouldn’t disappear. 🕳️ Some publishers are blocking the Wayback Machine, putting the public record at risk. Journalists are speaking out. Add your name. Stand for preserving the news. ✍️ www.savethearchive.com/NewsLeaders

Mary this is literally how vaccines are supposed to work.

Maria argues that keeping the receipts is about more than nostalgia. It's about the raw material of history. @mariabustillos.com #VanishingCulture #DigitalMemory @archive.org #OpenAccess #Preservation

Loved this show so much. It really was killed off too soon. If you like murder mystery shows then this is for you.

If anyone's DM'd me I can't access it due to being in the UK and the online safety law requiring me to verify my age. Sorry I don't trust tech companies atm with that.

Morning Bluesky.

He seems nice.

The Trump regime has removed the chapter on climate change from the "Reference manual on scientific evidence", an essential handbook for judges as they weigh evidence in court. The response of the American Meteorological Society has just been published (below).

In 1981 Doctor Who Magazine published the first comprehensive inventory of the BBC's archive, listing which Doctor Who episodes existed and were missing. 45 years on, 41 episodes have been returned to the archives. Here's a recreation of that list followed by how it stands in 2026.

People have no idea. They also assume quantity means access, completely disregarding that these materials degrade over time.

Compared to US TV archive which was all privately made by networks so stuff was left to rot or even dumped into the Hudson River once eps legally expired. A lot of surviving eps are now hidden in private archives. Be glad of the BBC.

The BBC's 1973 adaptation of ALICE THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS contained enough nightmare fuel to put a rocket in orbit. Sarah 'Nyssa from Doctor Who' Sutton as Alice, there.

Mothleby's Lunch - Gator Days

Difficult to emphasize just how much a generation of kids has been taught that being dishonest, superficial, and narcissistic is the pathway to attention and therefore success

In the book they visit Asterix's cousin to aid them against the Romans, clearly at least one of Asterix's parents were British. Brittany is also why Great Britain's called that, it's not a boast. It just means big Britain to differentiate it from little Britain (Brittany) in France.

Asterix is from Armorica in France which is in Brittany, making him a Breton. The OG French title for the book Asterix in Britain calls the British Bretons. which is brilliantly confusing if you don't know Brittany in France is named after Britain, because it was colonised by the ancient British.

America can thank Europe for doing the moral & ethical procedural justice that an American PROJECT 2025, Trump-owned DOJ & SCOTUS cannot muster up the decency to do as per the oaths they took.

I don't care which country gets the names of the perps out in the open as long as they get exposed. Right, centre, or left, it's time to put the rich on notice that they're not above the law.

All women should live in a place that respects and protects their right to choose.

Nope!!! #Epstein #EpsteinFiles #TrumpEpsteinFiles

It's like if the only local coffee shop had--for some inscrutable reason--two rooms, one for hanging out with your friends, and one for random people continuously yelling obscenities in your face. It would not be weird to choose the first room.

Wise words

It’s 20-fucking-26, and a bunch of insecure mediocre white men are STILL threatened by women succeeding. You best nut up, boys - us ladies won’t be intimidated by a bunch of wimps who are scared of us.
