Well, this is lovely. Good blocklists and a lack of nazi wannabes is a refreshing change.

DS9 Trek is best Trek, I will die on this hill. 🖖🏻
One of the best-sketched characters in an incredibly character-rich show: a fascist whose (potentially real!) redeeming qualities are continually undercut by his monumental pride, bigotry, entitlement and pettiness
The most realistic scene in DS9 is when Gul Dukat whined about how the Bajorans never erected a statue in his honor. A prophetic text.

Remembering one of the HORROR legends on his birthday, the great, late TONY TODD. We miss you, Tony. 🖤

Obvious historic parallels that make me even more suspicious and perplexed by the decisions of various academic institutions, all allegedly full of highly qualified historians.
How gender critical was Nazi Germany? Let’s find out & compare some top gender critical “beliefs” with evidence from historical Nazi Germany. Each post has a GC position + a picture from a historical source or modern research paper. English translation & the source are in each picture’s alt-text.

Another bit of silly joy from the creator of Potato!
it's time for another one page rpg, I expect, so here's a game called Scheherazade. yes I know that's an intimidating combination of letters, but it's a big world out there and I am doing the best I can with an alphabet made up by ancient romans, who had a wine-based economy

Things that continue to tickle me. In 1999 an entire Irish motorway was shifted to avoid disturbing a Fairy Bush. www.thejournal.ie/fairy-bush-c...
Double Take: The fairy bush in Co Clare that moved a motorway

Interesting discussion on clothes and rules.
A friend who teaches theology shared with me a post about CS Lewis's Mere Christianity, which discusses foundational Christian logic across denominations. It reminded me of Dale's tweet below, and I wanted to share some thoughts here regarding modesty and respectability, which are often hot topics.

This is the funniest piece imaginable in the dull world of the otherwise sickly sycophantic tech review.
For real. Read it, even if you don’t give a rat’s ass about printers.

It's Trans Day of Remembrance. If you're trans+ and reading this, you're bloody amazing. If you're cis, help out a trans+ person in your life, throw some cash you can spare at a crowdfunder, or badger your MP. Hell, just read something by a Trans+ author or look up what TDoR is. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️❤️

Can confirm: S28 made things so much harder for queer kids like me.
Twenty-two years ago today Section 28 was repealed.
But we're seeing history repeat itself as some in the media and in politics spread bigotry and misinformation about trans people.

Ahh the British Museum method, if it can't be nicked directly then they nick it by proxy.
After a post by @olivia.science, I went to see the terracotta figures from Agia Eirini, brought here by the Swedish Cyprus Expedition in 1931, now at Medelhavsmuseet in Stockholm. Plundered, with the blessing of the British, who controlled Cyprus. 1/n

This whole thread is so interesting. TIL this and about serotonin in the gut.
TIL that blood platelets have serotonin receptors, which is why anemia can mimic depression symptoms and that is absolutely fucking fascinating.

so, to understand this story there are a few things you need to know
- my cat, Gus, believes he is a trained support animal
- he is not (he has relatives who are, but he is not)
- he believes he is a seizure-detecting dog
- he is not a dog
- I do not get seizures

Here’s the reason I spoke to so many video game actors. I attended the launch of TIVA, an independently run audiobook series with all of your favourite voice actors, aiming to fight back against AI and corporations, featuring an all female/non-binary cast.
