I wonder who will be the PM that makes a formal state apology for what Keir Starmer has done to people who are #trans? https://www.theguardian.com/society/2026/jul/02/keir-starmer-issues-formal-state-apology-over-forced-adoption-scandal

Am I the only one who keeps seeing this picture of Keith in front of a military drone and thinks that the payload should be rotated by 45° to create better airflow for the props? Honestly, I should be employed by the Directorate of Science (Land) at the MOD 😆

The Green Party leadership will be delighted today. Andy Burnham, for all that he achieved in Manchester, does appear to be “more of the same” and this makes the greens the only party on the left. Or even close to the left. #ukpolitics #ukpol

You can ban people from the country for bad mouthing Israel but you can say "Trans Women aren't Women" on Pride month and be the Health Secretary. Whiteness has a hierarchy of races and minorities it pretends to give a shit about and Queers like me are not high on that list, I think we're down […]

For those people who are judged at work for how many LLM tokens they are using and are “expected” to use at least a certain amount, would a little Xcode extension that happily sat in the background and used them up on something well away from the actual code you are working on be useful?
