Exactly what I needed to read, thank you! I will be practicing my (probably lifelong) retorts.

A joy to see different archetypes emerge into our Bouffon world. Jaime Mears guided us through some brilliant exercises, finding variation, mischief and aliveness! She'll be back, via @amy_gwilliam_'s TSODU.
I entered the Cabaret Lottery for £25 tickets on @TodayTix! Tap here to enter: todaytix.com/london/shows/23… – at Hammersmith, London
I reckon the Wombles make anarchic zines. ♻️✂️🧷
My fave slide of the @PunkScholars Conference. @RussBestley on Punk Graphics, inc designs of Roslav Szaybo, pictured.
Great talk by Jonathan Healey (@SocialHistoryOx) on homicide in Early Modern England - including killings by the state.
There were more hangings 1580-1630 than 1630-last hanging! – at Oxford, England

#SpaceinTime Conference, Global historical thought on multiverses:
Prof Andrew Gregory @ucl: Ancient Greek, Hyppolytus
Wenjie Su @Princeton: Zhong Shisheng's defense of Buddhist multiverse in 17thC China
Adds context to contemporary boom of multiverses in film! (some I'm in ☺️)
More contemporary depictions of multiverses:
@eeaaomovie @SpiderVerse @SpiderManMovie
Which lead me to this brilliant article by Sean Feit Oakes @LionsRoar on the Dharma of Everything Everywhere All At Once

#SpaceinTime Conference @Warburg_News
Predating slightly this latest bolt of multiverse movies, is the discussion of the @007 Bond franchise in this light.
Which lead me to this article, which uses the term "Universe Fever", by @blake_1986 for @TrailerAddict (also crediting @TheInSneider)

Love that the Aristotelian diagrams Prof. Andrew Gregory (@ucl @stsucl) used in his talk were mirrored by the beautiful lights at Senate House.
Also harking to @BillSherman_'s opening remarks on the elliptical libraries @Warburg_News.

"like having your mother’s funeral invaded by a flashmob of parking circus clowns"
I'd say more like having a funeral invaded by workplace harassment tribunal. Disagree that Barbie is "feel-good comedy". Both harrowing, seminal, awakening & yes, "a lot"
ouch 🩹🍿

I did the Barbieheimer. DO NOT DO THE BARBIEHEIMER
