Remind me in 6 years, 2 months, and 23 days, to post that the date of the first episode of Doctor Who being broadcast is closer to the date of the original publication of The Time Machine by H.G. Wells, than it is to the present day.
@jamesthomson Leaving yourself little presents in the calendar is a treat. Several years ago (16 Feb 22) an event popped up on my calendar: Fort Knox, irradiated by Goldfinger, safe tomorrow.
@jamesthomson hey Siri, remind me… uhm, nvm I'll ask Mastodon.
@andrzejkaszkowiak @jamesthomson It’s a lot more reliable than Siri! 😉
@jamesthomson Full disclosure, I'm not going to do that.
@jamesthomson I'm from the future, come with if you want to live.

@jamesthomson Fun fact: I've seen the original movie "The Time Machine" from 1960 as a child.

And I saw the one from 2002, where everything interesting in that movie was what was in the trailer.

@jamesthomson I wonder at about what point time travel became a commonly known enough trope that it didn't have to be patiently explained to a mainstream audience.
