Nerdiest of nerds, Bristol via London. Like scifi, fantasy, RPGs, and have a keen interest in space exploration. Play D&D 5e and learning Italian. The photo really is of me on a camel. Never. Again.

LGBTQ+ ally. TERFs and SWERFs unwelcome here.
Morning, I was awake at 5am (alarm is 7.30am), so went to work early then couldn't have #tea because I was in 90 minutes before my colleague that's usually here first and brings the milk 🤦‍♂️

Had to remove ice from the windscreen before I could leave home as well 🥶 Winter is coming!

I agree Daphne, that's exactly how I feel too.

One of those films where if I start watching I'll be there to the end, it just sucks me in every time.

It was certainly painful to listen to, but unfortunately it feels like many political interviews are the same - journo trying to get a politician to say a specific thing, politician saying other things but not THE thing, and it just goes round and round, ever since Michael Howard on Newsnight.

The courts have chosen to interpret "creation" to include creating a copy by downloading. It means a person with a printed copy is charged with a less serious offence than one with a digital copy, and without attending the trial the public can't know what "creation" meant in each case.

Have to admit I wouldn't consider being responsible for 30 teenagers in a foreign country "a jolly". Sounds more like a punishment to me.

I'd love to see it return. We get sports news every single day in a dedicated spot on every bulletin, a show of science, technology and engineering innovation once a week isn't a big ask.

Flat, uniform dull grey here in Bristol. Your sky looks much better.

The exhibition was put on at short notice as a thank you to the people of Bristol and beyond for contributing to the recent crowdfunded attempt to buy a Turner oil painting of Bristol for the museum at auction. It's over a decade since the watercolours have been shown (for conservation reasons).

PE teachers fit the description of a single organised terrorist group that must be banned. That is my hill and I will die on it.

You may infer I dreaded days when I had to take my "PE kit" into school and have never taken exercise since as a consequence.

Andrews and Arnold. They are little known but as well as their approach to censorship do a lot of technical things that appeal to a lifelong computer nerd like me.

This is basically why I support ORG and is part of the reason I use the ISP that I do.

Hope you feel better soon! Colleague was wiped out for a week with the lurgy recently, immunosuppressed me escaped completely. Sure that's backward.
