You've inspired me: I'll line that up to start my week's listening, and congratulations!

But From the Pyre is so good!!!

Then: Creating zines let me enjoy the chaotic pointlessness of life by trying to entertain my friends. I then fell into volunteering/working in the AIDS crisis of the early 90s.

Now: i limit social media/news & focus on doing my little part to build the type of world i want to live in.

The EU's current #deregulation agenda resembles nothing we have seen before, in terms of scope, level of ambition, speed and degree of corporate capture 🚨

New must-read report presents the workings of the deeply undemocratic #deregulationmachine that Commission President von der Leyen has built ⬇️

Hey how long are you here for?

“Mr. Burns, your campaign seems to have the momentum of a runaway freight train. Why are you so popular?”

Ha yeah of course. I was a huge sunset rubdown fan so i was happy they were getting some mainstream notice. The double versions of all the things she said and the french track were also great. Its a well thought out soundtrack.

Mine is I'll believe in anything. Love how the soundtrack hint- plays a few bars of it at the start of the Scott hunter arc and then its like his anthem at the end of his storyline

Thankyou for reminding me of Body & Soul, I hope there is more than just me that appreciates this joke on here!

Todd Terry - I'm Not Her (Real House Mix) Listen to I'm Not Her (Real House Mix) on TIDAL

Timeless new track by Todd Terry and by timeless I mean early 90s house, so good tidal.com/track/502021...

I hope you are as pleasantly surprised as I was, looking forward to your assessment, you should be able to start bingeing in a couple of weeks

I'm enjoying Longshots, (ever since Peter David's reveal of Shatterstar's parental lineage I've been all in on any Longshot storyline) but the mojo xbabies might be a bit much for me, not sure of this one unless its got the comedy beats of longshots. Age of revelation is so good tho!

I'm on unlimited, what is this?! Something for June for me?

#ECJ: National legislation which does not allow a citizen who has exercised their right to free movement to change their gender data are contrary to #EUlaw 🇧🇬 #transgender 👉 curia.europa.eu/site/upload/...

As I'm writing analysis and drawing on a wide range of existing work and adding my own thoughts, this piece aimed at academic writing rings true and motivates me to think directly on the page... patthomson.net/2026/03/08/g...

@robin.berjon.com co-founder of Eurosky is testifying in the French Parliament today - watch live 👇

Discord, mastodon, and signal communities would all disagree. Check out @garbageday.email for more analysis and data on this splintering of social networks and online communities.

This is ecosystem thinking. Build infrastructure to distribute power not consolidate it.

Yeah I work a lot in tech governance and have models and frameworks to support embedding this oversight and its pretty hard to get interest even when I put it in "revenue generation" & "competitive advantage" terms but I'm determined to keep pushing: community & org level governance is the future

Did you see Al Ewing's Absolute Green Lantern was nominated for a GLAAD award this year. Have you read it?

Congratulations! My Thursday mornings are still not the same: waking up and reading the next edition of Avengers Academy was so much fun and always so affirming. Amazing characterisation, there really isn't anything that replaces it with this level of regularity in representation. Still miss it.

Hows yr stretching routine? Mine’s terrible & i pay the price with restless legs and terrible full range of movement, but even a few weeks of more regular stretching is helping me gain flexibility especially back of the knees & groin. Also i find lunges & deadlifts great for hamstring muscle memory

How to make your first contribution to an open source project Getting involved in open source doesn't have to be scary! Understand how to find a great project and make your first contribution in this ten-step guide.

To celebrate the launch of the @npmx.dev alpha, I wrote up a guide on how to make your first contribution to an open-source project.

Let me know if this helps you make your first contribution (and it doesn't have to be code)!

I follow you & respect you. I see you quote post so then I click and read and it is on a website that partners with death betting agencies and that funds Nazis. I try and engage with the article cos you made it seem important. It turns out it was fully written by ai based on his social media posts.

Yeah but still you are platforming a substack writer who by his own admission couldn't be fucked actually writing that article and let ai do it for him. If none of us reposted this work it would disappear faster. Now there is a whole thread of people taking his work and debating it seriously

Do you know of any gift article access to this or better yet any other reporting on it from other outlets? I am aware of the Florida issue but this is saying 20 states?
