Wit & Wisdom @witandwisdomtv.bsky.social · 28/02/2025Shall I compare thee to an orange turd? Thou art viler and more rotten; Thy blood streak tie and blond puff of mould, More putrid and misbegotten Thy deadhorn mouth to praise thyself, And slug-hatch thy trail of lies; Thy dead carpet tongue to trumpet wealth From thy fart-flapped brain of flies 1/2 120

Wit & Wisdom @witandwisdomtv.bsky.social · 09/01/2025So, this is the day that climate change finally reached the Hollywood sign. It's as good as any to announce that with the collaboration of Greenpeace, we're making an animated comedy series that looks it in the eyes. If you're interested in getting involved, stay with us. youtu.be/QFSM6U1dPEE?...youtube.comMy Pet Footprint - crowd fund launching March 2025!YouTube video by Wit & Wisdom 010
Wit & Wisdom @witandwisdomtv.bsky.social · 06/01/2025If you've used to AI to save yourself the effort of creating something, why should I bother engaging with it? AI is the shining armour of the mediocre. Lift the visor, and out drips the pink sludge of homogenised human expression. What about a human "kite mark" for work created without AI? 010
Wit & Wisdom @witandwisdomtv.bsky.social · 09/12/2024My neighbour is a translator into Czech. Occasionally I'm asked to help explain the more baffling creations of the English language. Sometimes it's movies (the baby-talk in Poor Things was a headache). This time it's the Dog Man comics. I am paid in jars of honey and home-pickled gherkins. 010

Wit & Wisdom @witandwisdomtv.bsky.social · 03/12/2024At the Czech premiere of the Quay brothers' new film last night: Sanatorium Under the Sign of the Hourglass. MEIN GOTT to even share a planet with these artists. Poets of patina. Calligraphers of clutter. Divas of dust. Do not watch their films.

Wit & Wisdom @witandwisdomtv.bsky.social · 29/11/2024Is it the Xodus, or the Great Xtinction? A decade ago, we asked Facebook to unfriend coal for Greenpeace. (Successfully, as it happens, but we won't bask.) Social media was still young, and "de-friend" and "unfriend" were rival terms. I argued for "de-friend". I was overruled. youtu.be/FzI6VfAeImEyoutu.beFacebook: Unfriend CoalYouTube video by Wit & Wisdom 110

Wit & Wisdom @witandwisdomtv.bsky.social · 29/11/2024If Twitter was a bird, and Bluesky is a butterfly, is a tweet now a flap? Consider the possibilities. "Her statement caused a flap." "The audience flapped their appreciation." "Hunched over his laptop, he spent the whole night flapping." Anyway, this is our first flap. Will it cause a hurricane? 131
