I'm coming to London with my zine! See you at @capsandtaps.co.uk on Saturday 12 April at 4pm.

On Streeting’s comments about mental health conditions being overdiagnosed: for that he would need to present evidence that such conditions are diagnosed despite the diagnostic criteria not being met. I’ve only seen one study on that capmh.biomedcentral.com/articles/10..... Anyone got any others?

In honour of the Freakier Friday announcement, please see the sequel I recently pitched...

It’s crazy that hundreds(!) of “partner” companies need access to my data every time I access a website. All this, and you still never see targeted ads which are useful or relevant.

Finished Avowed last night; really enjoyed it all the way to the end. No idea how much things change depending on your choices, but I also don’t think it matters - nothing felt like I was being corralled in a particular direction.

PSA: PUT YOUR DOG ON A LEAD. Twice in the last few days I’ve been approached by massive, exuberant dogs who refused to come back when their owners called. On one occasion I was holding a baby. When I told the owner to put their dog on a lead, they scowled at me like I was unreasonable.

Anyone find it funny how when the UK releases the Cass review to ban trans care, we get everything ranging from New York Times push notifs to op-eds in every major US paper... But when Germany, Switzerland, and Austria release pro-trans youth care guidelines, not a single article anywhere but mine?

"It’s hard to put yourself out there. It’s a challenge to be vulnerable. But you do have to do it if you want to get a date." NEW BLOG! Remember when I said I'd do test #dates with blog readers & give feedback? Someone volunteered! Meet Jack! www.girlonthenet.com/blog/test-da... #dating

This is one of the questions I get most often from non-technical friends. When Microsoft retires Windows 10 later this year, they're leaving in the neighborhood of a billion computers without support. Here's what you need to know about Windows 10's end-of-life.

I feel like I’ve been failing more and more captchas lately. Either it’s more signs of the internet being broken, or the start of a bad sci fi novella.

Making the biggest mistake of your life; call that a magnum oopus

One Day Less

In step one of my grand “move to Manchester plan”, which of course is to settle in for pints at the Marble Arch while scrolling zoopla

#thetraitors I wish there was a version of the show which didn’t tell you who was faithful and who was a traitor

An incomplete collection of my old phones. I do miss when mobile design was more bonkers.

When someone posts and is clearly in the middle of a game, don’t weigh in with your thoughts of the ending. You shouldn’t need to be told this.

This feels like a really important article. A manifesto for trans healthcare that I stand behind.

Bizarre hearing British podcasts advertising PayPal “making it easier to send money to friends and family” as though we have the same banking headaches as USians.

To celebrate being on @bsky.app I’m going to sell my book at Amazon prices. So DM me if you want a copy signed and delivered for £12.29. RTs welcome!
