Chris Ethridge @chrisethridge.com · 17/01/2025Feeling this quote pretty hard today. Incredible amounts of preparation, and a big thing still didn't go right. Not to say that that there were not things to learn from it, because there most definitely were. Gonna take a knee on today, but right back up tomorrow to get back after it. 062
Chris Ethridge @chrisethridge.com · 09/01/2025This moody little film is easily Top 3 of 2024 for me. It's got a little more polish than the director's previous feature, Caveat, but still oozing with dread. #IHFCFeed 030

Chris Ethridge @chrisethridge.com · 15/08/2023A fairly large, reputable website just asked me to make sure my email address is correct in their system by... sending an email. 100% some executive required this email to be sent over objections from every rational person in the meeting. (It's not a phishing scam. Actual email from the company.) 000

I have a small collection of ARCs from authors I enjoy and couldn't resist grabbing these when I saw they were available.) 020

Chris Ethridge @chrisethridge.com · 14/05/2023Had some things to do today, so I wasn't on Bluesky much. Apparently Animorphs took over while I was gone? Have we seen any ALF-Animorphs crossovers yet? 020

Chris Ethridge @chrisethridge.com · 11/05/2023I was thinking about using the new Bluesky Feed Generator project to write a custom algo for all ALF related posts, but I think it might just be easier to direct people to @faineg.bsky.social's post and replies feed instead. 020
