Reacquainting myself with my first wine love - Priorat - recently. Have just found someone has imported the Jean Simo wines into the UK - haven't had these since the pre-Brexit days of ordering from a small shop in Tarragona.

I stumbled on a post here about cats being allowed or not allowed outside and everyone was so certain about their view being 100% correct, no nuance or accounting for circumstance

Really quite enjoying the resurrection of authoritative voice overs in TV at the moment (see Bad Monkey, Kaos et al.). Makes me want to watch Amelie, and to a lesser extent, Y Tu Mama Tambien, again.

Heads up to the science folks, since I know most of us are on Linkedin - they’ve started auto-opting people in for AI data scraping (and yes, I’ve confirmed the preference is there and defaults to on.) 🧪🧬🖥️ To turn it off, go to Preferences > Data Privacy > “Data for AI Improvement”.

is it time to share my naomi wolf story on bluesky? I've talked about it before - I livetweeted it happening! - but I don't think I've shared it here. Wolf and I were at Oxford at the same time, which is where she made the horrendous mistake in her doctoral thesis that this post references.

Finally did it and deleted my Twitter account today. It was bad before but it's almost intentionally awful now. Let's hope the few people I followed there that aren't here yet make the leap soon.
