Imagine if there was an epidemic of pubs selling alcohol to children and instead of shutting the pubs responsible the government imposed a nationwide curfew on everyone under 16.
Sitting across the Oireachtas Children's Committee on online safety for children.

Good news: the UK Government is now offering free short courses on how to use the rabid monkey that comes taped to every computer now for some reason! You'll learn how to...

Last year, I posted about the death of Charlemagne.
1211 years ago, on the 28th of January 814, Charlemagne died after being bedridden for 7 days. Despite his promotion and funding of schools, he is believed to have been unable to write up until his death.

Calling transphobia a 'gateway drug' to the far right undersells it. It's pure accelerant. Grimly fascinating to guess what crankery becomes any famous transphobe's secondary obsession, cos they all have one: 15 minute cities are fascism! Grok noncing is cool! ICE are good! We should kill all dogs!

Boris Johnson and Suella Braverman are constant reminders of just how deeply unimpressive you can be as a human being and still get incredible power - and how useless and complicit our supposed systems of checking are - I don’t give us long

I've been trying to learn the French names of various fish.
There's no profit in doing so, it's more what you might call a poisson project.
