The no ID card petition has passed 2.9 million people. 3 million remains in reach, don't give up! petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...

The digital ID card petition has passed 2 million. I would be very surprised if it's anything but dead in the water now.

This is a map of the anti ID card petition signatures across England and Wales. If you look at the dark red areas with most signatures, you'll see they're disproportionately in Labour voting areas. Keir Starmer should take note of that.

I am sorry my posts have been very grim of late, it's not what I want to be doing but circumstances require it.

Here's a taster of what's coming up on Jenny's Bench, it's a camera with a turret mechanism for switching between 3 M12 lenses. I would rather be doing this.

Local trans night in a gay bar, came along with a friend. A little fabulous for me, but low light and loud dance music make for a great ADHD working environment.

New camera project taking shape.

Will become a YouTube video in due course.

In other camera fun & games, a friend gave me this beautiful Double 8 camera. I have to figure out a little power supply to take the place of its mercury battery, but I see at least one roll of double 8 in my future.

There is a point in every photographic technology enthusiast's life when they look at a scene like this and conclude that they have room for more cameras.

New badge 2, a sporklogic.com EMF explorer. Much translucent PCB awesomeness.

New badge, this time #BornHack 2024. Persistence of vision LEDs, powered by an ESP32.

New toy, an Agfa 120 box camera. Very similar to contemporary Kodak designa, but with the lens built into the film carrier rather than the box.

Loaded it with FomaPan 100, going to give it a go.

A clue comes in studying news trends in coverage of transgender stories, they've tailed off significantly over the last week, indeed at the weekend there were none. (see graph)

This usually means they have a big story in the works, perhaps it's the Levy report.

Today's #DailyCurse doesn't mince its words.
June 25, 2025 at 8:50 AM
I see there's a new #DailyCurse out, on the button with the news as always.

What would a gutter press tabloid taking an anti gender critical stance instead of lickspittle hare speech look like? Shall we find out?

A sample of what I am doing. Others are doing sentiment analysis.

The perfect number of donors.

This was my message on Saturday, standing outside the British embassy in den Haag. #transrights

Tip: if you are going to protest, use a silly sign. It gets you attention.

Today's protest against the transphobic Uk Supreme Court decision, den Haag, Netherlands.

Here's another screenshot from my news corpus tool, using my 2010s political news corpus. Guess which word everyone was talking about in 2016?

Selfie for #TransDayOfVisibility. Just back fron parkour training. Shoulder is very stiff indeed.

Yesterday I was in Berlin, and made a trip to the Magnus Hirschfeld memorial. It's close to the site of the world's first gender identity clinic, raided by the Nazis in 1933. Not on most tourist itineraries.

My turn to cook last night in my hackerspace. This came out very well indeed.
