And there's more. The entire week has special re-runs of previous celebrations, live events and more - ttns.fm ttns.uk
#TTNS hits 14 years old this week. To celebrate there's a line-up of DJs playing songs they listened to when they were 14. tune in at ttns.fm or if you're in Brighton, the DAB channel TTNS.
Every time I see a news item about Trump XI my first thought is they're talking about the 11th card in the Major Arcana - which half the time represents Justice. Justice for Trump and Xi. If only.
Month 6 of #TheGreatStargateRewatch and I'm up to Season 5 episode 1 of Atlantis and a building has fallen on Rodney's head. Just got season 5 of SGA, SG1 Continuum (I put it about now in the chronology) and Universe to go.
#VWBPE So .... this is a thing #SecondLife timings are PDT. PDT is UTC -7 at the moment, not -8 as it usually is because the USA and the UK clocks go forward at different times. Which nearly caught me out.
End of third month of my #StargateRewatch - now on s9 ep 1 of SG-1 - 51st DVD of 96. Ben Browder joins the cast. This actually feels more like the pilot of a spin-off show, and no worse for that. The Goa'uld storyline naturally ran its course, and the Ori are (if anything) a scarier foe.
Maybe time to start diversifying www.perspectivemedia.com/tyrrells-veg...
It's good to read that Margot Kidder is doing well - and no diss intended to her - but the "original" Lois Lane? How poorly do these journos do their research? Or evem just pay attention to the world around them? www.msn.com/en-gb/entert... The Noel Neill side-eye is very appropriate here.
End of the second month of the #FullStargateRewatch Disc 31 of 96. A month ago I'd made it to Disc 12 of 86, but since then I've bought both seasons of SGU. This is season 6 ep 1 of Stargate SG1 - Redemption.
Oh well then ... if we're doing Peckinpah - The Ballad of Cable Sausage
Bought two pages off ebay a few months back, clipped from Sounds 9th, June 1979. Hawkwind Rock Family Tree by Pete Frame. Just framed them to go on the wall in what was a utility room for the cats litter (now post-cats will be a reading nook). They look the biz.
On this MA we're studying the philosophy of quantum mechanics, phenomenology, postphenomenology and all that sort of stuff. It's gone over my head a lot, and this frame from a Dan Dare comic sums it up perfectly.
Just reading my news feed this morning ... excuse me but WTF is this a warning about? Are they literally trolling us?
Starting 2026 as I mean to go on - a Stargate rewatch - at this rate I calculate it'll take me until some time in May to reach the end.
Most played in October according to #Musicolet. Mixture of sets I'm putting together for ttns.uk about different types of Man, different types of Insects and last month's Hitch-Hiker's set for #ALTC
The only ethical reason for a robot army would be to defend us from people like Musk - I mean, that was the point of this guy
