Ginny & Georgia season two will be on Netflix on 5 January next year. I don't know whether Katie Douglas will also be in it, I hope she is, and since she's the one that announced it on her Instagram story I have hopes.

New Follower Notification

For a while I haven't seen any 'New Follower' notifications even though the number of followers on the Contacts page has gone slightly up. Is there a setting I may have accidentally turned off? I can't find any. I am using an account type 'Personal', sub type 'Soapbox' (so follow requests are automatically accepted and not shown) and the server is on the stable version 2022.10.

Do these notifications work for others?

Is there a way to sort the followers on the Contacts page with the newest first, instead of alphabetically? That would help too.

@Signor Amministratore Yes, I am currently testing with everything under "Create a desktop notification when:" turned on. Let's see what happens...

Apparently people have watched Wednesday over 340 million hours in a single week, even I can't claim that's all me. It's a record. It is number 1 in 83 countries.

Before Wednesday Jenna Ortega had 8 million followers on Instagram, which I think is a lot, and with the Wednesday promotion going on it had creeped up to 9 million. I was wondering whether the release would lift it over the 10 million. Now, a week after the release, she has 16.6 million followers on Instagram. I guess people like what she did.

Finally finished Wednesday and I can seriously say that I really really really enjoyed it! Jenna Ortega freaking killed it in that role. That being said, I have a lot of anime I have to catch up with now 😭 #wednesday #addamsfamily #netflix #geeksocial #theothergeeks

Such is the success of Wednesday that after years of me being the only lonely one talking about Jenna Ortega on the fediverse addressing the void, there are now multiple people 'here' posting about her show. (I tried to reshare but it doesn't work at the moment)

Why would it insert this horrible image(*) in the blog post preview when the post has no images of its own. Why can't it just leave the preview without an image? I've disabled that WordPress plugin for now.

Starting a rewatch of His Dark Materials, all the way from series one, because series three starts soon. This was the first time I saw Dafne Keen and the reason I watched Logan. I think most people will have seen her in Logan first and be very impressed by her and the intensity of the character, but also seeing her first in His Dark Materials impresses a lot.

Watching it on HBO Max instead of my blu-ray, because views count in this day and age. Production and tv companies really look at views and social media engagement to decide who to hire, what kind of show to commission. Record companies look at number of likes whether to finance a tour. Casting people look at imdb rankings, which are based in part on searches. It's unfair, but to support your faves, engage.

Can we have a House of the Dragon prequel series? A Game of Thrones prequel prequel. Then Milly Alcock can play Rhaenyra again. I've finished the series now and I'm not sure I'm looking forward to it continuing in this timeline.

Most people that I meet on my photography adventures don't know that "taking pictures for Wikipedia" is a thing. So, when I'm out shooting, I often engage in conversations about how Wikipedia needs more photos. That's what happened this morning, when I took this image for the article "Greater white-fronted goose":

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greater_…

Please consider sharing your photos with a global audience through #Wikipedia !

I was actually thinking of this recently when walking in the Austrian countryside - lots of small settlements worldwide get stub articles and I bet tons of them could get pictures added.

I've not had good experiences editing Wikipedia in the past, though, which makes me reticent to invest too much time on it... there's lots I'd like to add but I've found editors far too keen to just snipe out one's work based on flimsy interpretations of the notability guidance.

That dance in episode four that Jenna choreographed herself is so amazing, that I'm thinking she is not only going to be awarded the Emmy for her performance as Wednesday Addams, which seems a given at this point, but maybe also for the choreography.

I guess it's going to be a weekend of doing some WordPress stuff. Writing a post, but also finding out how and if the block-theme works and setting up a multisite install for real.

Putting it out here so it will feel as more of a failure if I don't. Since I was going to do it last weekend...

150 jaar na de afschaffing van de slavernij volgen binnenkort eindelijk excuses van de Nederlandse staat. Hier is door heel veel mensen al heel lang voor gestreden.

Excuses zijn ongelooflijk belangrijk, want de gevolgen van het verleden werken nog steeds door in het heden.

It's amazing how many so-called classic movies have terrible script editing. For example at the end of Spartacus loads of characters who aren't Spartacus say they're Spartacus. This is the sort of thing you're supposed to catch in the read through.

Got reminded of doing a training a few years back where the trainer, from South Africa, was presenting slides, made in the US, while she would dramatically stop and apologise profusely for the spelling mistakes whenever American spelling appeared in the slides.

Ah, it had risen from 8c to 17c then 22c and is now 53c, would rise to 83c next year but will be capped at 40c. Yet, I apparently use such a small amount of electricity, that in the most recent yearly bill I got money back. Also, the specification of past year shows that of the electricity they delivered to me, 100% was wind energy, so yay!

It was totally amazing. I want a season two. It's showing such great judgement by Jenna Ortega of presenting exactly the right kind and amount of internal torment to hook you on the character and the story, while also being true to the version we know who had her emotionless one-liners as a support character but which wouldn't work for leading eight episodes. This works. But we know, and many people say it, Jenna always delivers.
