Can we ban this now? AI is shit, it can't get anything correct and it's putting actual lives in danger. news.sky.com/story/ex-pol...

Putting the details of all these American breweries into the master spreadsheet and keep spelling Vermont as Vermouth. I'm not sure if my subconcious is trying to tell me something or not 🤣

A good and right decision. F++k sex matters and their feeble attempts to oust trans people from this swimming area.

Late last night I got the list of US breweries that have taken a cask (or two) to fill with beer for Peterborough Beer Festival. I've had beers from a couple of them, but only a couple. I do know that they all do cask on a reasonably regular basis though, so they know what they're doing!

Starting to look like my body has got used to the new medication a bit too quickly. This really should be lower :-/

You can tell it’s summer because the rain is only diagonal, not horizontal.

After many attempts to apply for an AWRS (alcohol wholesalers license) the system has finally accepted the application! Now I just have to wait 45 days while they process it :¬/

I was out at the pub earlier and wanted food. So I popped to the local independant pizza place next door for a take out. They only take cash, and I didn't have cash on me. Nearest cashpoint was closer to my house, 30 minutes cycle away. I'm now home and have ordered online from a multinational. :/

Breweries mass producing cheap lager. This is what the craft beer revolution was for!

Folks, I'm not joking when I say that I fully believe a politician calling for racial mob violence should be stripped of his rights as a citizen. Nothing will ever be fixed until filth like this is dumped, screaming in a sewer where it belongs.

The Supreme Court has today "strip[ped] fundamental human rights protections from potentially hundreds of thousands of severely disabled people" say a group of National Charities for disabled people. www.mind.org.uk/news-campaig...

I'm (finally) on "proper" medication for my high blood pressure issues, which I've had for a very long time and it's also helping me to sleep right through the night, and wake up fully rested. Problem is, with my blood pressure now normal, I feel like I'm half asleep all the time. It'd be like...

THIS. 100% THIS.

the lion, the witch, the fucking audacity of this bitch

The UK government has put a revised Code of Practice before parliament, which, if adopted, will intensify the serious regression of basic human rights that trans people are experiencing across the UK, and can similarly affect intersex people.

Donaldb Tumpb has spoken.

Yes. Using a computer now feels like this at all times.

On the eve of our submission window opening, we felt we should add an AI policy

Israel now occupies more of Lebanon than Russia occupies of Ukraine. But of course that's a 'good' invasion. So there is silence.

Lunch, part 2

The White Trash House

Just took my blood pressure, and yup, the new medication is working as it's reading bang on normal for a change. Which also explains why I'm feeling very tired all the time now :¬/

I'm debating cycling in to town for an international food and drink fest at a (good) pub. It's a range of street food vendors that you can normally see throughout the year, but all together at the same time. I've missed it the last couple of years, and couldn't get the energy together for it...

The World Cup is about celebrating exotic host nation cultures

One thing I don't like about beer gardens is the smoke. Since smoking was banned indoors, beer gardens have become smoking gardens, especially when the weather is nice.

I do like this beer garden.

Part 2 to this is so good 😂

before judging someone for eating frozen or processed food you must: 1. ensure they are able-bodied 2. find out if they have a functional kitchen + safe living space 3. realize that you will never be entitled to any of this information so you must, in fact, never judge others’ food choices🫶🌈💗

I probably shouldn't have laughed, but I did 🤣

Fried up some plantain with hot sauce, very tasty 😁

Whenever I think “Don’t make me tap the sign”, this is the sign I’m thinking of

Unnoticed by whom?

"Pronouns are Him, He/Him"

Not starting any rumours or anything, but we *may* be getting some wood cask at Peterborough Beer Festival this year. Dutch wood cask. We've gotta see if it comes through, so not celebrating yet, but there is a possibility :¬D

Tony Blair. What the billionaire class have paid for.

We're due thunderstorms and showers any moment and the weather forecast better not be lying.

I see we're into the "don't lock goths into a car in hit weather" shite. Do you really think a goth can't smash their way out of a locked car? Ah, bless.

I was up clearing away from 6:30 this morning, made it through to dinner with all the Disco Bar stuff packed and palleted ready to go, but I was really suffering from this heat. So a stroll to The Handsome Prince and a very cold lager that I'm barely sipping at, it's that hot! 🥵

Apparently Harland & Wolff are building a second Titanic and are offering a free voyage to everyone who died on the first one.

Back stage at a beer festival

It's also shaded and much, much cooler than the outdoor garden area!

“No texting and driving” they say as cars are manufactured with touchscreen tablets built into their dashboards

GOOD MORNING! Here's our regular weekly round-up of good writing about beer and pubs featuring a beer festival in a forest, gruit, failed hop varieties, heritage pubs, and more. boakandbailey.com/2026/05/news...

Local newspaper stories: National chains won't build their shops in our village, we're deprived of amenities. Also: No more new houses, it'd ruin our village. I do sometimes wonder if these folks ever think that maybe they'd have the "amenities" if there were the "customers" :¬/

On the Disco bar later today at @cambeerfest.bsky.social !

I often see people expressing horror at discrimination, prejudice & hatred when it is racist, antisemitic, homophobic, misogynist, ableist, etc. If those people are not now speaking up/screaming about Labour’s Transphobic Toilet Ban, they don’t really oppose discrimination, prejudice & hatred.

We're soon about to run out of our emergency backup keg of Nene Valley Egyptian Cream nitro keg on the Disco Bar at @cambeerfest.bsky.social , so have just made an emergency emergency backup order for a keg of nitro White Rat from Ossett brewery to hopefully see us through the heatwave!

I've just heard of the existence of a donor meat lasagne. And now I really want one.

I've a doctors phone appointment today. Sometime between 8am and 6pm. I've also got a beer festival bar to run all day. I *really* hope they call soon before we open the bar :¬/

And how the merry fuck are they going to police that then? I’m not going to carry a gender ID for anyone, neither am I going to show them my fanny. Leave trans women alone, ffs.
