  7. @NickEast_IndieWriter @armandoFemat @bookstodon @books For #HHGG the best version is the original radio version - it's not fair to compare the book or TV or film adaptations.

    My default reference for all things Robin Hood is usually Robin of Sherwood (it's as 'historically accurate' as any other version :-) ). This will make an interesting contrast.

  10. @danish_akhtar7 sounds like a setup for Golgafrinchan Ark Fleet Ship B hitchhikers.fandom.com/wiki/Go

    Beyond yeeting supernumerary people into space it also removes long term thinking, which would have a lot of financial motivation.

    So, the probability of falsification is non zero and skepticism would be advised whether NASA or any other agency.

    Ah, the Yorkshire Vogon Clan - they're the worst of all. The same mind scrambling poetry but with brass band music in the background - truly evil.

  12. So useful. Protection. Disguise. Weapon. Food. Comfort. You can dry yourself off. Keeps you warm. Keeps the sun off you. And you can use it to 'do an ostrich'.

  13. A #QuoteSunday for #HHGG on #TowelDay!

    "You know," said Arthur, "it's at times like this, when I'm trapped in a Vogon airlock with a man from Betelgeuse, and about to die of asphyxiation in deep space that I really wish I'd listened to what my mother told me when I was young."
    "Why, what did she tell you?"
    "I don't know, I didn't listen."

    – Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy

  17. How Douglas Adams predicted the future 🐬

    Always a reluctant prophet, The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy author nevertheless foresaw such innovations as social media and chatbots

    "Douglas Adams: The Man Who Imagined Our Future" is on Sky Arts on March 27 at 8pm 📺

    We are moving into Sirius Cybernetics territory here.
    Someday, with mouse pointers sulking in the basement, like SC lifts, somebody will rediscover a simple mouse that does nothing but move the pointer and click.
