Governable Spaces: Solve for democracy on the internet and our outer politics becomes a lot more sane - with Nathan Schneider — ACCIDENTAL GODS

Superia X-Tra 400? Muy favourite film, specially when lab scanned with a Fujifilm Frontier SP 3000, It's still in production? In Spain I rarely see it.
Let's hope that they DON'T discontinue any of their slide film (Provia 100f and Velvia 50/100 variants).
So, Elon is suing advertisers for not advertising on X. Alritey then.

I've only seen them behind very strong fences (at the Phillip Island Wildlife Park). Seeing a photo of one out in the open near a picnic bench with people in view scares the daylights out of me!
