On #TransDayofRemembrance, I want to honour the memory of every single trans person hurt by a monster and every single trans person who felt they couldn’t live in a world full of monsters.

If you don’t want trans people to exist, get help. Fix your heart.

It’s you. Not them.

The Shirley Bassey Show (10th November 1979). Les Dawson gives some of his favourite jokes another airing whilst Shirley attempts (and fails) to keep a straight face.

What people, in the US and Europe need to realise, is that, under fascism, life goes on relatively unabated for many.
Meanwhile, in the shadows, people are "disappeared" and the fabric of civil society is dismantled.
This is happening now in the US, and nobody's words will stop them.

The Bad UX World Cup is accepting entries for 2025. You have to design and build a deliberately awful date picker component.

To be honest, I’m pretty sure I’ve seen some non-ironic date pickers in production that could win this thing! 🤣

Why are the American president's claims about autism the first item on British news bulletins?

He's not our president, the advice doesn't apply here and he's not presented any evidence to support his assertions.

So why spread these claims? What make this the biggest story in the UK?

Being at my mum’s house with flaky internet has meant that I’ve spent quite a few hours watching and enjoying the snooker.
