In which we learn that the Emporium (the official shop for Discworld related products) is anti-AI :

"In this Artificial Intelligence-flooded and art-theft riddled world it is increasingly important to celebrate those real artists, and pay tribute to the talented creatives that have helped us bring Discworld to life over the years."

And it's a good opportunity to learn a bit more about the artists behind the original products they create all year long to bring freshness to their shop.

As a Yank, I had never heard this slang before. Did any U.K. residence know of this? It certainly makes sense....

If you haven't heard before, Wincanton had the privilege of being home to the original Discworld Emporium. The shop sadly closed a few years ago. Now I found that the building is "No longer on the market". I hope the new owner proves to be deserving of this house, its history and the ties to Ankh Morpork and the beloved Discworld.

An older article Wincanton High Street Discworld Emporium building up for sale that offers a few more pictures.

The final 6 books have been numbered out of main continuity, because the labelled 40th is the first children's novel in the series, and 41-45 are a miniseries, also for children. However, the file metadata is all in release order, so if viewed in Explorer they will order themselves by release.

"Discworld is a comic fantasy book series written by the English author Terry Pratchett, set on the Discworld, a flat planet balanced on the backs of four elephants which in turn stand on the back of a giant turtle. The series began in 1983 with The Colour of Magic and continued until the final novel The Shepherd's Crown was published in 2015, following Pratchett's death. The books frequently parody or take inspiration from J. R. R. Tolkien, Robert E. Howard, H. P. Lovecraft, Charles Dickens and William Shakespeare, as well as mythology, folklore and fairy tales, often using them for satirical parallels with cultural, political and scientific issues."
