I wanted to get a video of this ghost crab but every time I got close to their hole they scuttled back in, so I tried getting clever with it. I made a little sandcastle and shoved my phone into it, hit record, and walked away. Crab was VERY suspicious of this addition to their environment.

"We would normally associate these large spikes in sign-ups with major civil unrest." Amazing.

ProtonVPN has a free tier (limited to one device, no ads, no data caps/speed limits), but they "don't guarantee" video streaming on it (it works but not always well).
Every time VPN installations surge in response to new laws, it deepens digital divides because the privileged who can afford VPNs get a better Internet than the less privileged who can't mashable.com/article/prot...

My paper against age authentication laws: ssrn.com/abstract=520...
A popular VPN is seeing a 1,400% spike in signups as the UK's age verification law takes effect

My paranormal thriller RAGGED ALICE was shortlisted for the BSFA and British Fantasy awards, but I don't think it ever really found its intended audience.

A small Welsh town. A string of murders. And a detective who can literally see the evil in people’s souls.

Before I based my entire online personality around the toothy wonders of sea cucumber buttholes, I was a potoo evangelist.

Everyone needs to know about the potoo.
