"Why was so much of the internet not working properly yesterday?"

Well, there's a complex piece of analysis that can be done about that involving multiple factors, but also...

This security dalek in my local Boots chemist.

The member of staff I talked to in there was getting really sick of it after just a few days. It activates every time someone enters or leaves the store.

I saw one woman walk in and nope back out the store while I was there.

This appealed to me because of the way it expands the classic illustration of equality and equity (we should always be striving for equity over equality) plus it's really on the nose with that capitalism section.

Help me Bluesky!

I'm indexing* my movies into collections and created a Sword & Sorcery collection and hit some edge cases.

Do the LotR movies belong in this collection?

They have swords and magic, but don't feel like that genre. 🤔

@dravenxivuk.bsky.social and I made it out to a BBQ party.
Having fun dancing to the music, being with friends, and not thinking about how awful the country is right now!

Yeah, and this was also today.

It's worth noting that Adnan has said some pretty awful things about trans people previously, but mysteriously all of those posts on X have been removed. Huh.

Strange New Worlds "Four and a Half Vulcans"

Make sure to watch the after credits scene with Spock and Doug (Patton Oswalt).

One of the funniest Trek moments I've ever seen. 😂

His role is "Deputy Director for Public Affairs" at The Christian Institute (companies house 02634440) - not a director role.

He's a trained lawyer who is anti-trans, anti-abortion, pro conversion therapy, and writes articles for several orgs.

That's the Independent reporting "Christian Campaigners" launching a legal action to ban civil servants from Pride events and rainbow lanyards.

It name tags Linzi Smith who ... isn't just some Christian. She's a very well funded anti-trans activist working with US right-wing funding.

I doubt you'll get an answer from them, but the evidence points to yes.

So John Boyne has jumped straight to DARVO in response to being called out for being an awful person who is doing awful things. 🙄

Oh and he recently told everyone how he's besties with JKR.

EDS isn’t “just hypermobility.”

It’s dislocations, fatigue, torn cartilage, organ issues, chronic pain and being disbelieved.

Please listen when someone with EDS tells you they’re struggling. Believe them. Support them. Don’t judge what you can’t see.

Are the UK Government and Ofcom REALLY dumb enough to think this is the right direction?

They're saying it would be illegal for Reddit, YouTube etc to host guides on using VPN software, or carry adverts for VPN software.

That's some over-reach and a half.

Last night I learned that a lot of the US doesn't know what blackcurrant is!

We were discussing favourite cheesecake toppings and all 5 Americans and the Canadian in the discussion had zero clue what I was talking about when I said mine was blackcurrant.

It's tasty!
