Jiang makes some pretty extreme predictions in that vid: Dubai will collapse economically, Bahrain's shia will rise up, etc. Time will tell I guess.

I’m curious to see how the Saudis play it. MBS went along with the war, but I imagine that might change if his oil plants get hammered. Maybe he’ll convince DT to pull the plug. Who knows…?

I suppose only time will tell.

“He predicted that gas prices would rise to… almost four times the level they were before the war began.” 😬

Qatar warns war will force Gulf to stop energy exports within weeks Gas producer says it will take ‘weeks to months’ to restore deliveries after Iranian drone strike

Looks like a good time to invest in solar…

… And anti-drone lasers.

“This will bring down the economies of the world.”

It’s just to rent/purchase here so it was cheaper to just buy the blu rays (which I could still sell after)

I had to Google who that is. Does he have a good hit rate prediction-wise?

I hear it gets even better. Looking forward to s2.

I have a hard time buying Joshua Jackson as a “tough guy” but they’ve only tried to pull that move a couple of times so far, and everyone else is great, especially Anna Torv.

I assume they’ll also target “soft underbelly” infrastructure like power stations, oil refineries and water desalination plants. What a mess.

Yep!

I’d heard so many good things about Fringe, I just bought the box set and dived in. Figured I could always just sell it if I hated it. Fortunately I don’t!

Iran hits Amazon data centres in jolt to Gulf AI drive First known military strike on a US hyperscaler rattles regional ambitions to build multibillion-dollar cloud facilities

Iran is now bombing Amazon and Microsoft data centres.

“Drone strikes on Amazon Web Services facilities… highlight the vulnerability of cloud facilities — prominent symbols of US tech power in the region and hard to defend against air attack.”

A brown penguin chick of some kind. It looks very much like a man in a suit. It is bedraggled and miserable

Made it to Friday but at what cost

I got a pair of brand new Plein Sport black cotton joggers at TK Maxx for £20. Original RRP was £200. Madness!

“The best people.”

The man knew how to deliver a line.

How I Write a Comic Book Script The other week I posted a few tweets about the practical steps I take when writing a comic book script. The thread took off and the initial tweet has now been viewed almost half a million times (!!!)....

Here's a big post I did a while back on how I write comics, fwiw. gregpak.com/how_i_write_...

Yes, exactly. Comics writing is actually more demanding than film/tv writing because you generally are expected to visually describe everything and break it up by panels.

Sorry I know the world is in a terrible fix but I've been laughing at this for ten minutes now

This is what I’ve heard! Good to know.

Yeah that may have been part of it. But Fringe is clearly better planned.

Tell you what though, it’s really making me miss Lance Reddick... 😔 #FringeBinge

I kind of bounced off Fringe the first time I tried to watch it, and I’m not sure why; possibly just the silliness of the “science”? But whatever, I’ve just binged the first season and loved it. On to season two! #FringeBinge

The Road.
