Max Carnage @doktorg.bsky.social · 06/10/2026There were lots of intriguing themes and possibilities, but in the end, they decided to wrap it up in the most boring and cliched way possible. Very disappointing (and also it didn’t make sense). 110
Max Carnage @doktorg.bsky.social · 06/10/2026A slightly different trajectory, but another one that left me feeling rather deflated: The Battlestar Galactica reboot of the early 2000s was great… until it wasn’t (final season). 170

Max Carnage @doktorg.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Weirdly, my train from Glasgow to London today was delayed owing to the disruptive presence of some drunk emo kids who caused some aggro then got shirty with the train manager. Sadly, some racial abuse was thrown, and we ended up waiting at Oxenholme with locked doors until the police arrived. 020

Max Carnage @doktorg.bsky.social · 03/10/2026I don’t have any issues with wooden frames etc., but the internal dividing partitions etc. seem terribly ephemeral in a lot of US construction. I guess modern materials may be good for heat and sound insulation? But still, it’s very unfamiliar. 010
Max Carnage @doktorg.bsky.social · 03/10/2026I’d love to know if there was any (well regarded) study of long term costs/benefits analysis for different approaches to construction (especially US vs UK). Probably really difficult to do though, given competing local factors. Maybe something I’ll look into whilst on this train 🤔 100
Max Carnage @doktorg.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Those Scottish standards sound pretty robust. Our place in the west of Glasgow is built out of ‘foamed slag’ (blast furnace waste by product!), pretty solid as we’ve discovered during some renovations/extension work. happily, I’ve not lived anywhere with roof tiles like that! 110

Max Carnage @doktorg.bsky.social · 29/09/2026A wonderfully epicurean philosophy! Our culture seems to be absolutely riddled with guilt, shame and the veneration of austerity. The supposed virtuousness of self denial (where there is no good reason for it) is a pernicious mental malady that threatens our equinimity without societal benefit. 000
Max Carnage @doktorg.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Watching Gladiator 2 on Netflix. How shit is the CGI?! Opening scenes of a city in Africa, about to be assaulted by a Roman fleet. The visuals look so cheap! Like it is supposed to be epic, but everything looks so lightweight, fake and flimsy. Really poor. Have turned it off. 000
