We finished “Leonard and Hungry Paul” tonight. I really liked its gentle storytelling, and the way it avoided trying to explain every little thing to the viewers.

In our case, the first stone courses were laid onto the soft ground, and allowed to sink. The walls were levelled off, and more courses added...then they let it sink. That continued until the lowest stone course hit the bedrock, then they just kept building. The walls are their own foundations 🤷♀️

The QAnon stuff posited that Democrats were using clever euphemisms involving ordering pizza to communicate with one another about child trafficking, but the actual reality is that these rich assholes were just e-mailing, like, "Hey, remember when you molested [actual victim's name]? Lol."

My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

So this morning I get an urgent email for a same day cardiology appointment at my local treatment centre.

Your reminder that Brianna found comfort, community and support online, and was murdered by transphobes in a park. But it's phones which are the problem.
On Brianna's 19th birthday, this morning I joined @cheshirepcc.bsky.social and the Brianna Ghey Legacy Project Phone Free Education campaign at the launch at Jodrell Bank of a new £150k initiative to make Cheshire the first county in the UK where ALL state high schools have lockable phone pouches.

Happy to be of service. I once got into a taxi in Dublin wearing a cool new outfit. I was nervous about deviating from the norm but did it anyway.
The taxi driver was on the phone when I got in. First thing he did was finish his phone call saying "I have to go, this fella's wearing dungarees"

A simple answer to this, anecdotally speaking, is that people in general want nice things, but they don't want other people to have access to said nice thing and the latter will almost certainly overshadow the former
Just generally my default assumption upon learning that something new is gonna happen in Britain is that it'll be a little bit crap. I don't think that's inevitable or something, I don't get that impression in other countries, especially not ones as wealthy as the UK. Things here just always rubbish

The BBC is the latest part of ‘the public realm’ to feel the wrath of the right.
