TTRPGs, law, sport, geekdom, nonsense. Trans rights are human rights. Accessibility should be standard. Determined to never receive my comeuppance. Pay your fucking tax He/They
What a paragraph. Prime Minister's wives have different back stories nowadays* *This is not a complaint, don't @ me
Was about to watch The Offence, a Lumet movie about a police officer who kills a suspect during an interrogation. I have cut out final line to avoid spoiling it, but it basically has a massive spoiler in it? Don't tell me what a film hints at before I've fucking seen it
Excited to start this today. 400 pages on Robespierre's final 24 hours? Inject into my veins and then go back to 2001 and do the same for my 18-year old self.
Just popped downstairs to take the cable car to the vet and there is some sort of boat based climbing frame out there with Climb Festival written on it. I would say I don't know what that's all about, but it's very clearly something to do with a climbing festival of some kind
The thing is, for all of Farage's supposed political nous, it seemed pretty obvious that the other parties wouldn't run against him, and that it would make him look a fool if he spent the whole summer arguing with a bin. But as Barry would say...
Have only just learned that George R R Martin named three generation sofa House Tully after fucking Muppets
Kids obviously made fun of trans people, because kids are dicks. Same for some adults. But basically society didn't care if someone was trans when I was a teen. And trans people were not invisible. The extreme fear and vitriol is new and manufactured. Don't fall for it. Be like the Klingons & Cooper
[Content warning for bladder control] Rupert had a tooth out yesterday so was anaesthetised. Was sat on a train with him, cat carrier in my lap. All of a sudden my right leg became incredibly warm. He had pissed all down it. 45 minutes I had to wander around with a leg covered in piss.
Why do writers put this stuff out? The two arms on the left side of his body, the way he's writing on something he can't see and is talking of himself in the third person? This instantly distracts me from the text of the post because the image is so weird and distracting
Was randomly trying to remember a line from an episode of the A Team where Murdock misquotes Apocalypse Now and I was scrolling past the AI answer, but it's actually too weird not to share.
Der Spiegel offering the chance to know what your family did under the Nazis.
HBO Max, which of you looked at the hundreds of stills you could use from this show and decided this facial expression was the one to go with?
Watching the New Zealand game and I thought I was hallucinating, but their manager actually is Darren Bazely?! Doesn't look like this any more but still recognised him
So she's talking about the public sector equality duty. Here it is. Which of these are a bad idea? It doesn't even require action. It just requires that you fully consider the consequences of your actions. Which, call me crazy, is a good thing, actually?
Just got this from my GP. My wife, a patient at the same surgery, did not.
Was just talking about this so I post it here, as it's such an insight into Amelia Earhart. Short version: Don't really want to get married, but will do it if we don't have to be faithful, it doesn't interfere with my work, and I can sometimes live somewhere else. Plus a one year probation period
This is an email update on the new EHRC Code of Practice. It's from a very well known employment lawyer and he's relying on an AI summary. What the fuck?
Look at the size of those eggs! PS The coot has a wife and chick on the adjoining platform to this and is trying to pilfer food or bedding for them, which is why he looks a tad shady
At the IMAX for First Contact. Just inject the Trek directly into my veins.
I don't know if you're interested in either The Hobbit or Moomins but this post reminded me of how Gollum wasn't that well described in early editions, so Tove Jansson drew him like this. I saw it at a British Library exhibition and never forgot it.
