Obvious, when you think about it, that Brad Delong on how Substack and its writers might survive enshittification is paid only content. It would require “the continued maintenance by SubStack of exit paths, so that the credible threat of exit keeps platform incentives aligned with user success.” How’s that going, I wonder.
Opening Apple Mail for mail to: links has always been a bit of a pain. Maybe this is a better solution for me than the desktop app, which I’m sure I would leave open and check too often. https://social.tchncs.de/@case2tv/115376106285087309
It's too bad that they're stopping the Torchwood main range. Monthly stories are my fav format, i get why theyre putting it down but boxsets just arent the same and I would take a monthly adventure over a boxset any day. Some very creative stories in this range, I'm sad it has to go

Eat This Newsletter 285: Antsy
The new EAT-Lancet report “allows two servings of animal-source foods per day—drawn from fish, yogurt, milk, cheese, or meat”. What if the yoghurt contains ants? One serving, or two?
That, plus the certainties of birth, death, and school lunch money.
I started a project with a very splitty yarn that drove me nuts. After looking around online I adopted a “reverse” move for pulling the loop through the stitch, with the yarn in front of the hook, and it has made a huge difference. I am no longer going nuts. It may not be correct, but it works.

Life's little certainties: birth, death, and school lunch money.
The Myth of the Sommelier.
A newsletter at That Place, but a wonderful read nevertheless.
“There are hundreds of different large-scale wine scandals that suggest the institutions responsible for reviewing, rating, and certifying wine don’t deserve the reputations they pride themselves on.”

Great news! my candle dealer bugs rock is back with a new line for spoopy season! Order now and get these monstrous creations:
- bad apple (plus baby sample powerful enough to spoil somebody’s bunch)
- a sweet hex (feel like Pandora (not the streaming service) as you open the lid! then instead of hope you are left with a sweet candle to burn)
- mischief nite (this moon cannot be obscured, knows what you did)
- evil side up (I guess Sam I Am wanted the ham)
Plus some bugs rock matches and stickers and maybe some little plastic scaries and a temporary tattoo!
As a bonus you can guess which of these made me sneeze a bunch when I opened the box! (I’m fine, my allergies and I have come to an agreement. Thanks for asking!)
Newsletter done, time for a nice walk in the glorious late summer sunshine.
Shelter Island
Cooling off during local summer
🎬 School of Magical Animals 4
Ein weiterer solider Film der Serie, wenn auch nicht ganz so gut, wie die Vorgänger. Besonders die Songs lassen leider in diesem Teil etwas nach. Aber war ne gute Zeit im UCI.
🎬 Bloodsport
Runde Nr. 3! Die Lage spitzt sich zu!
🎬 Hot Fuzz
Didn't remember the action-laden ending to be this long. But apart from this, solidly funny entertainment!
🎬 Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky
Ehhh…whattt??? Jesus. This is just bonkers all the way through. It's wild! I don't really know what to make of this (yet).
🎬 Praxis Dr. Hasenbein
Eieiei ist das behämmert! Und wenn ich mir die Hälfte der Szenen so angucke, fand das Cast das auch!
🎬 Texas - Doc Snyder hält die Welt in Atem
Wesentlich besser als Dr. Hasenbein. Dieser hat in der Tat einen Haufen großartiger Dialoge und Szenen. Das Gitarrensolo! Die ganzen Nasenmann-Szenen. Das Erdbeben. Muss man mal gesehen haben!
