*talking to teenage militant atheist self*
current me: okay so there’s a big fight between the government and the catholic church
teenage me: got it, so we’re obviously on the side of the government
current me: I, uh, you might want to sit down for this one
BLUESKY IS A WEBSITE THAT TURNS (post by jay.bsky.team claiming that bluesky is made with AI) INTO (picture of bluesky not working)
HMRC apparently have an ABAB survey (Administrative burdens advisory board?) which to me just says "assigned bug at birth"
Absolutely over the moon about this.

The first panel shows a crow with the title "How to live a good life". The second panel shows a crow cawing at itself in the mirror with the subheading "Make friends". The next panel says "Explore" and shows a crow looking into a commercial waste bin. The next says "Try new things" with a crow eating something vile. The next one says "Be curious" and shows the crow grabbing a hissing cat's tail". The final frame says "Get a hobby" and shows the crow looking closely at a book of matches.

She put her head down in her arms and cried, and her cheeks were salt and wet. She cried for the waste of her years in bondage to a useless evil. She wept in pain, because she was free.
Screenshot of a tweet: God Save Great Britain & @GSGB01 WOW: The NHS has ordered staff not to use the phrase 'It's raining cats & dogs' in fear of upsetting people from other cultures and religion. Britain has gone absolutely
Screenshot of a tweet: @Jenny_1884 The NHS has ordered staff not to use the term "It's raining cats & dogs" as it may offend foreigners. Tough If you don't like it jog on is what I think The NHS needs to get back to concentrating on making people better & not being more concerned about offending
For the love of God, could the "common sense" brigade PLEASE develop some actual COMMON SENSE?!
No, the NHS has not ordered staff not to use the term "it's raining cats and dogs" for fear of either upsetting or offending anyone...
Please engage your brains for a minute🙏

I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.

Is there anyone out there who has access to the 17-page diversity training document was offered to staff at the Lancashire NHS trust??
GBNews and Telegraph have it but I can’t find it to debunk their BS headlines!
One thing that is especially difficult to accept, especially as a Canadian, is the vital importance of being enormously rude to sociopaths and narcissists trying to take advantage of your kindness.
But it IS important. And it IS vital. Being appropriately disagreeable, when needed, saves lives.

A screenshot of Freddy McConnell’s Instagram post featuring a photograph of Jacob’s Transition Goals freddy.mcconnell: This book made me emotional. Football mad 8yo me would have been transformed by it. Not only should it be in every child’s home, but every school and nursery. Some books tell a good story, some have a message. It’s surprisingly hard to nail both. Trust me, I’ve tried! It’s even harder to nail both *whilst also* writing rich characters. Coach Sanchez… 🥹🥹🥹 Bravo, Arthur, what a debut. Back of the net.
Won’t share every review of my book I get on here because that would be annoying (and I’m sure there will be some less nice ones) but this one from the Freddy McConnell has made my day and it’s 9am 😭😭😭

Every time legalizing psychedelics comes up I share this story I wrote years ago:

A flatscreen display on a "smart" water fountain, demanding to be reconnected to the internet.
In 1999, I was playing a decker in Shadowrun, and tried to distract a guard by hacking a water fountain to overflow, and my GM said "why would a water fountain be on the network? That's fucking stupid. No you can't try."
Well it's 2026 and I just want you to know, Phil, that I FUCKING CALLED IT!
