Not saying that a double yolker was auspicious, but I've just had an email to tell me I'm a finalist in the 2026 "Best Businesswoman in Business Services" category in the Best Business Women Awards, so... 🥳 (If good things come in threes, I could do with a lottery win or something, just saying...)

The hard-boiled egg I had with my soup at lunch today was a double yolker. Winning at life. 👌

Didn't stay up for the football, but I might as well have done because I saw every hour on the clock regardless last night 😴

Ben Cullen, a leading figure of the "Raise the Colours" campaign, will stand trial for three separate charges regarding a total of 78 indecent images of children. I have only seen this covered in local newspapers, so far. Grim as it is, it needs wider coverage www.oxfordmail.co.uk/news/2624087...

Old enough to recognize this as a data center

Just seen on a roundabout in Chelmsford.

Much more pleasant dog walking temperature this morning 👌

As a middle aged woman, I really feel like I'll have made it when I meet Jolene, Lorraine and Susan. Imagine being as legendary as those three 👌

Booked onto SearchNorwichXL whilst somewhat tipsy 👀 back in April because @markwilliamscook.com said there's an after party (there's a theme developing there) and just realised it's going to take me 5hrs to get there 😂 Might make it into a multi-dayer. What is there to do in Norwich?

This week I learned Photoshop can slut-shame. So I spent a video testing Adobe's moderation system, seeing what triggers it, and discovering that Photoshop may be judging my outfits harder than half the internet - youtu.be/sWcnBBrJ5cw

Using her air fryer to.... boil eggs?

I forwarded the email to mailchimp's abuse dept & told them I wanted to report them to themselves. Explained that I'd never opted in and had tried unsubscribing. Guy replied telling me to unsubscribe. 🫠

Just stop using LastPass already, folks. https://blog.lastpass.com/posts/klue-supply-chain-incident-and-lastpass-response

Had a lot of fun but jesus it was too hot for two hours of treasure hunting. 🥵 Would like to try again when it's less toasty out.

Third unwanted email from mailchimp just landed despite a) never opting in and b) unsubscribing twice already. Doesn't really give you much confidence in their spam/abuse handling capabilities to be honest. 🙃 Certainly won't be recommending them to clients in future.

I'm going out "spunching" later, which - from what I've read - is basically like orienteering at school but with an app on your phone that beeps when you find a point. This seemed like a much more fun idea when the weather wasn't 33 degrees.

Sherbs is sulking because I only took him round the block this morning instead of on his usual walk, even though he was literally panting his head off within 10 seconds of leaving the house. 🐕

I want a print of this (poem and picture side by side) for my office wall, for some reason.

Just a wee reminder that I don't have a regular home for game reviews, so if you're looking for a ✨ fabulous ✨ critic with a penchant for the macabre and run-on sentences, pls think of me! I genuinely miss regular critique work and would love to find a new home 👻 opencritic.com/critic/2833/...

I get endless cold-emails selling me something. Was wondering how many of them are human. The answer turns out to be: none. Updated my LinkedIn profile yesterday. 10 monastic messages today, of which this was the best.

quite mad that "hack the planet" now increasingly resembles "please let me use the internet you freaks"

As a parent of 14 & 16 year olds I will help my kids get round relevant parts of a social media ban. They already have phone 'curfews' & I monitor what they're up to myself. 🤷‍♀️ Would rather efforts were targeted more broadly to dark patterns, addictive behaviours etc than a specific age group.

someone on tumblr said it better than i could

Just realized that one of my favorite easter eggs I made while at Stripe is still on the /jobs page… The monitor in the photo mimics everything you do on the page itself. 🥚💅 (only visible on Firefox because it uses an experimental feature)

Do LLMs use schema? I did an experiment that was widely misunderstood, so I’ve taken the time to write up all of the detail on the theory and look at available evidence. This is the new nuanced and long-form answer on my Substack. 🤓 open.substack.com/pub/markwill...

if you are someone who makes anything, anything at all, with your own real brain and hands, I respect you so so much and am begging you to keep doing it.

Ok this is a truly great tweet

My biz social media strategist wants me to do some reels for insta featuring me (🤢) Have just cleared away the months of collected paperwork detritus from my desk for a better 'environment', & I'm not going to lie, I'm a little bit ashamed how much dust and crumbs had collected under the edges.

Would I like them to find me people who *require* underperforming website performance? Seems like the antithesis of what I do to be honest 🧐

Just logged into my HMRC personal tax account and it says it's changed my homepage "to make it easier to find information and services"... except it used to be super obvious on first login what money I owed and when, and now I have to go hunting for it. Not sure that's an improvement. 🙃

I like the new blue in the WP7.0 dashboard. (That's my main takeaway so far 😂)

Just had an incredible post-live project debrief with a client - one of those meetings where everything they said was positive. "Most complex but smoothest project [they'd] ever been involved in" Normally get good reviews (😎) but this was one heck of a project and I'm genuinely glowing. 🥹

Struggling to get going this morning. Been sat staring at my phone for half an hour while the dog gives me puppy dog eyes because he wants his walk 🫣

He used an upper case He used a lower case He used a number key He used a symbol key He tried the password he updated the other day He tried the password he updated the start of May

Dealing with the legal bods chasing a non-paying client AND having to report an ex-employee to the police in the same afternoon is a whole experience. Sometimes wonder why I thought growing my biz was a good idea 😂

Oh man, this is such an unfortunate series of coincidences for the Don't Call Them Racist Because That's Very Rude Party.

So many birds in my garden in the mornings just lately 😍 pecking at the gravel round the bed I've been weeding; I reckon I must have disturbed a few tasty tasty bugs.

Slop. Glorious slop. Notice the three armed child at the top of the slide, the weird two arms on one side of the child, and a severed leg.

Kevin McCloud is now working with #WordPress clients, I see.

Turns out it doesn't matter whether you opt-in or not, they'll send you shit anyway.

Big BrightonSEO fomo as per. Why does it always clash with something 😭

Belling website contact page: "We have removed the contact form to make it quicker and easier for you to get the support you need." AKA we can't be arsed to reply to emails so chat to a robot until you lose the will to live and give up

Shady opt OUT practice on the Mailchimp sign up page. You'd think a company that works in this space would know better.

I've just booked so you should too

I could be wrong, but I think someone's trying to reset my passwords...
