Good old Evri – 'delivered' one package to THE STREET outside our city centre office (at 8pm)… …and then left the next one outside a completely different building, but also on a public street (for consistency). Never change, Evri – you're doing great.

During my livestream yesterday, I talked about Figma Sites for a little bit. I've broken it off into a short, stand-alone video. I don't normally like bashing a company, but when a company of Figma's size makes a product this bad, I think it's important to call them out on it. youtu.be/ZsFIvULxkHI

Great work from the department of Penis Counting Studies: “Oxford academic Prof George Garnett counted 93 penises in 2018 – with 88 belonging to horses and another five to men. But Dr Christopher Monk said he had counted one more on another man” www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I was told that I could have any music I wanted in the office all day for my birthday. I chose Sun Ra and it's not a universally popular choice, for some reason.

Recent conversations with non SEO-familiar people can be summarised thus: yes AI searches aren’t reliable, but normal Google is so shitty anyway I’ll take that more convenient risk instead.

Spare me your 'this'll be great for the far-right actually' takes. It's the worst kind of liberal defeatism.
