The right wing think tank, Policy Exchange, has released a big report today recommending young people on PIP “be required to look for work, to volunteer or be engaged in training.” Only one problem: PIP is not an out of work benefit. policyexchange.org.uk/publication/...

#Cardiacs went unrecognised for far too long. The growth of 'reaction videos' has brought their music to wider attention, particularly in the States. Listen to the sage advice this man offers, it might just change your life... youtu.be/t4FYpquRtOc?...

Something I wrote when the fire alarm went off this morning: Halfway up the stairs is the stair where I sit, The fire alarm went off & I cannot use the lift, Don't know if I'm in danger or if someone burnt their toast, My life being so worthless is the thing that hurts the most.

"Home of Fadeless Splendour" adapted to an Anglican psalm tune for evensong at the Episcopal Church of the Redeemer in Sarasota, FL. All glory, laud, and honor to God, but all copyright rendered unto Tim Smith and the Alphabet Business Concern. #Cardiacs youtu.be/2UiEpBSQf28?...

If you have a Microsoft 365 licence and have noticed the addition of Copilot then be aware that they're charging you extra. You need to request to cancel your subscription before they give you the ability to opt out of Copilot. You can then choose the subscription you originally ordered 😡

“If you are not disabled and you regularly go to a yoga class, a book group or just the pub, when was the last time you did so with even a single disabled adult present?” Thanks to @johnharris1969.bsky.social for being one of the rare columnists to ask these Qs. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

#TeamRE could do with being made case sensitive. It would filter out irrelevant stuff like TeamRed and TeamRevolution.
