To paraphrase Douglas Adams: Beethoven tells you what it's like to be Beethoven and Mozart tells you what it's like to be human. @danpatlansky tells you what it's like to be the universe. Watched Dan and his band (and #Reets too!) make magic last night. Truly incredible talents

Very cool offer from @spaceghost - gaming industry peeps that need the help, reach out.
If you’re in the games industry and you’ve been laid off, I’d be happy to help you for free. I have a degree in English lit and I’ve done hundreds of resume consultations. Most of the time people’s resumes are just too long. Consolidate to 1 page and people’s contacts increase++.

With great thanks to the team @ComicConAfrica I was lucky enough to interview a childhood hero today. #LouFerrigno was gracious, funny, and full of amazing stories from a fabled career. Lou will be at #comicconafrica2024 on Fri and Sat.

Good lord, what a speaker and an inspiration @MichelleObama.
Michelle Obama is fantastic: "We cannot be our own worst enemies. The minute something goes wrong, the minute a lie takes hold, folks, we cannot start ringing our hands. We cannot get a goldilocks complex about whether everything is just right. We cannot indulge our anxieties."

A great breakdown around the right to vote by @natterlyk. Via @TechGirlZA.
Let's break this down. David thinks that there's a problem with democracy in SA. He thinks he can fix it with a competency test and added bonus if you pay tax. (For the purposes of this thread I assume he means income tax). David thinks he's smart. David is not. Here's why:.
