Ed Losty @elosty.bsky.social · 25/09/2026@darach.bsky.social I hit the translate button on your last repost which was in German. It seems profoundly wrong that it’s altered the translation to assume the poster meant in the UK. 132
Reposted by Ed LostyMary Gillis @marygillis.bsky.social · 24/09/2026It's called film "footage" because camera operators initially held the cameras with their feet. That changed after a film shoot in 1931, when an operator got a foot cramp and was forced to hold the camera in his hands. The "footage" he got that day was extraordinary. That man's name?

Ed Losty @elosty.bsky.social · 25/07/2026@darach.bsky.social I know you sometimes post about names, and it just struck me Dickens didn’t just invent Ebenezer. Google says it was the 68th most popular boys name in Britain in 1840, but I can’t find a source. Has any other name been so effectively killed off by its use in literature? 100

Ed Losty @elosty.bsky.social · 04/07/2026“No doubt” is an odd expression. At face value it means certain, there is no doubt. But used in a sentence it has more of an air of “I suppose”. No doubt you’re all fascinated by this idea. 000
