"Can ethnic minorities be English?" is a good question and the answer is "Fuck the fuck off you racist fuck."

Stopped by a guy chugging for Sustrans. Had a bit of a chat: “What do you do for work?” “Oh software stuff” “So it’s all your fault, aye?” Fair play.

Super cute bit of environmentally aware design here in #Glasgow as the model map of the city collects rainwater to form the river.

Nothing like deciding to visit the necropolis then having the hairdryer catch fire in your hand to give your day an air of gothic farce.

Just realised I feel the same sense of perpetual affronted entitlement about mobile data signal that boomers do about parking, and I’m not proud of myself.

Suella Braverman's tragedy is that it will never matter how much she debases herself in search of power: she will never be more than she is now because literally no one can stand her.

I don’t make New Year’s resolutions, but I did just find an unexplained line in my to-do OneNote reading simply “Dem big gym tiddies” and it’s almost March, so I guess I better get lifting 🤷‍♂️

Picked this up yesterday. Haven’t played it yet but just reading the rules made me giggle. A neat blend of daft and thoughtful.

In my heart I know that UK politics is so craven that “we must save each other from the orange man” will never cut through the fantasy of Brexit, but sometimes it’s nice to entertain a fantasy of our own.

Tonight’s Call of Cthulhu game ended with us… creating a lot of paperwork for DEFRA and the Scottish NHS? Also ruining a mad scientist’s career, and giving an actuary a tranquiliser gun.

The thesis doing the rounds that bourgeois life became so cosseted and beige that folks invented things to panic about, and crusaded against them as a hobby (vaccines, immigrants, trans people) is annoyingly compelling and would explain the mumsnet tone of a lot of the ultra processed food discourse

I get that FAFO chat and leopards and faces and all that is more dark humour than theory of change, I do, but I'm increasingly struggling to find it anything other than darkly cruel. Christmas is not in general a process by which turkeys shed their false consciousness, I guess.

One fun thing about writing historical romance is that I’ve read way too many people pontificating about the Value of a Free Market when what they meant was “shut the fuck up and stop complaining about the opium.”

Hey techsky, I'm looking to talk to someone who was in the coding trenches during Y2K. I need to get all my little details right in a really bonkers queer romance. Otherwise all the hot queer programmers will laugh at me.

Weakness’ idea of what strength looks like. Tacky’s idea of what classy looks like. Utopia imagined by people with nothing in their hearts. Also: hella creepy.

When I worked in UK academia I recall hearing of a Japanese man who was baffled at how Britain had decided to run its universities like firms. “Why? Your universities are excellent and your firms are terrible.”

I won't be getting my undercrackers in a tangle about the spectre of an ad-supported version of Office because even the profoundly stupid ways I spend my time are better than that. But it's interesting what experiences they'll accept for B2B vs B2C customers. www.theregister.com/2025/02/25/a...
