Senses working overtime #116

1 Cool movie and TV posters



Check out more here.

2 The beat generation



Great article and interviews with some of the beat generation, a.k.a. Allen Ginsberg's friends - according to Ferlinghetti who is among them.

3 Poor rich Qatar



I lived and worked in Doha for a while back in 2009-2010, enjoyed it too, so this article about Saudi's diplomatic war against Qatar was interesting, to say the least. The BBC outlines events well, too.

4 Rotten tomatoes? Fresh or rotten?
I'm a fan of the site but Hollywood is moaning about it. Boo hoo.

The world's greatest newspaper (a.k.a. The Guardian) weighs in on the debate.

5 So, how about that Spiderman?




Looks like mega success to me! Here are the numbers.

Overtime - Celebrating Warren Ellis



Castlevania is a hit on Netflix. Bravo Warren Ellis.

Senses working overtime #39

1 Westminster illuminated


Our visit to London included some of the illuminated buildings the mayor of London (Boris the spider) shouted the great unwashed.

2 Older than you know
Amazing story about a piece of rock that is OLDER THAN THE EARTH!!!

3 Shark attack!!
Some fantastic drone footage of sharks including when sharks attack the drone! Yikes!

4 Cinesift
Ever wished you could, say, search for all movies with a Rotten Tomatoes score of 100 currently streamable on Netflix? This is a pretty cool app for doing just that.

5 Words
Hamartia
I love words. These ones though? Pretty hard to drop into a conversation. This is an A - Z of unusual words that are unusual for a reason!

Overtime: False-consensus bias
I enjoyed this Medium article - pretty cool game too but I'm not sure I could play by the rules!
