Good time to mention the climate crisis bits in the GOV.UK Service Manual and Design Principles www.gov.uk/service-manu... www.gov.uk/guidance/gov...

I fursuited for 2½ hours during a heatwave in pride and tbh I didn't suffer all that much? I guess doing it for 5 hours during the May heatwave, in more layers of clothing, really set me up for everything else to feel easy by comparison.

Some furry folk spotted at Bristol Pride today! 🐾👀

Your average fediverse instance isn't going to make you hand over ID or facial scans to continue using it. Just sayin'.

★ New blog post: The accessible contrast ratio colour grid thing And now I've boshed out a blog post about the doohickey. https://beeps.website/blog/2026-07-09-accessible-contrast-ratio-colour-grid-thing/

I've given my accessible colour contrast grid tool (I can't think of a good name for it) a little design sprucing up, and like, favicons and stuff. You can use it to do stuff like this! colors.beeps.gay?hash=MDAwLDR...

One of the things I like least about this weather is that it makes my hands sweaty, which then makes my laptop sweaty. Like I don't care about anything else sweating, but why my hands?!

haha sex-sju

CW: medical Not sure whether the most unpleasant thing I’ve had going on is the last 6 months of getting my teeth drilled, last 12 months of getting my face lasted, or last 18 months of getting my blood drawn. So many medical things hurt aaaaaa

So I got a new laptop. The old one has been gifted to someone who will keep up the stickerbombing traditions set forth so far. But for now, welcome Kassen.

Email as a communication medium is so underrated. It's actually quite nice to read something and have a few hours to mull it over before answering if I want to.

I'm trying to collect together basic info on all of the brony meets and cons that are still running in the UK. Too many of them are now buried in impossible to find Discord servers, let's get some visibility on them! https://bronymeets.co.uk/

@louderyay.bsky.social Hey! Bit of time no speak. How's it goin'? I'm trying to dig up info about any still operating brony meets happening in the UK. Do the Worcester Shires meets still happen? If so, do you have any sort of webpage/social media/public chat that I can reference for it?

So, in case it hasn't been obvious from me talking about updating my CV and Portfolio, I'm back looking for work! I potentially have something lined up for the immediate term, but if you need a senior programmer, level designer, or just general creative, I have a pretty varied skillset! caylee.dev

YOUR REGULAR REMINDER THAT THE UN DEFINES GENOCIDE AS "intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a group... [including] Causing serious bodily or mental harm.. .. Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part..." Yes.

The UK is in a weird place politically where LGBT rights are dramatically backsliding, but the government + most media are pretending that's not happening. Like they're still acting like the UK is progressive on LGBT rights when any gay person will tell you things are moving in a scary direction

It’s Disability Pride Month and I suppose I should probably acknowledge now more than any other time of year that I’m an anxious, neurodivergent, sleep disordered and partially hard-of-hearing critter; and those aren’t things I should feel the need to compensate for.

CW: UK politics I see Nigel Farage has published a statement criticising Andy Burnham as being ‘another professional politician'. Farage has been a professional politician for longer than Burnham has.

I feel like this image might be useful for the non-furries this week. heat exhaustion = get to a cool place, drink water heat stroke = get medical attention
