Weaveworld was huge when it came out. Great and Secret Show is good too.

For a quality horror experience, read the short story Dread, from The Books of Blood II collection.

No spoilers, read it cold.

Kebab joint in the very centre of our million person town.

Ate it on the day before Xmas, was walking and talking again by mid Boxing Day.

Bleaugh, lie down sweats and toilet yoyo.

The place shut down 5yrs after.

This was 20yrs ago, no kebab related issues since then, all tasty. Sour cream and garlic sauce, add a single felafel too.

Thanks for sharing this moment about the Q&A.

The lack of self-awareness about how ghoulish, and close to grave robbing these 'reanimations' are is concerning. Glad to hear that museum professionals are not entertaining it for a moment.

Some sort of automatic down-sampling feature before posting, for images, video and maybe audio.

DeltaChat has this built in to minimise file-sizes before posting.

Something like this would reduce plenty of bandwith/processor use/carbon etc. Increase speed of loading pages.

With an option to click to see the original media too.

 

(Full disclosure, I learned this yesterday.)
