New video is out! Bournemouth Kings Park skatepark 🥳 Was nice to try out a new place, even if I'm too much of a n00b to skate the park as it deserves to be skated. #skatepark #skateboard #bournemouth #adultskater

“Why don’t they integrate?!?” “We’re moving ppl into your community to integrate” “How dare! We’re leaving the UK” 🙄
This German comedy sketch (with English subtitles) perfectly captures so much of what is going on right now in the UK, the US, and across Europe. "Playing the 'Nazi Card' in the Third Reich", by Browser Ballett.
I have a WhatsApp group (that I created) and few of us got talking about neurodivergence. Everyone talking is ND. The group isn't about that topic and someone (Who's also ND) spoke up to complain about us talking about ND topics in the group. I get that the group topic isn't this but man, feels...

On our way home from Rhodes. It’s been a nice week but I’m glad to be getting back. I like home. I live there!

Made a little eclipse projector. I'm a scientist now you know. ☀️🌕🌒

From today, EU citizens have a legal right to know when they're talking to a bot or looking at a deepfake, backed by fines of up to €15m. Thanks to Brexit, we're missing out on this protection.
