George Galloway: “I have been assailed all day by a “children’s book community” so vile and vicious I’m amazed they even let them near kids #redmolucca”. He was retweeted five times. An account named @winnie_the_pooh, not believed to be connected either to the Disney corporation or the estate of A A Milne, responded with one word: “Tosser.” and was RTed 213 times by the time this well-worn screenshot was taken, perhaps more afterwards

I once worked on a project where 'helmet cam' was rejected as a name for a wholesome live feed watching a conservator restoring an actual helmet. A proper Roman one. That was a dumb move.

Narratively having Ever Given getting stuck in 2021 to set up Hormuz in 2026 is great foreshadowing. You want your audience to understand the basics of international shipping in a lower stakes context so you drop the real plot without a lot of saggy exposition about the minutiae of cargo logistics.
