This is the reverse of the busted year 3000 song where they say that nothing's changed but we live underwater
Just a reminder that: - this isn't for workplaces and if your work is trying to implement it scare them over discrimination claims - the onus is on the service provider, not the service user to comply - the code *itself* says enforcement of toilet facilities is unworkable and low priority
EHRC Code of Practice comes into effect today so remember to be an absolute pain in the arse to any service provider who is trying to actively enforce it.

do people know you can just... not post. if you hate it so much.
I'm at the fringe! First show of 27 done last night. Almost sold out but for one empty seat on the front row. After I finished I found the guy whose seat it was sat directly outside the door on the curb eating a 4-pack of cornettos. It's great to be back.
Slice of gouda cheese (jong-belegen) "Ik schrik niet zo snel, hoor 😎" Yes! Not much lately. Worst was when I graduated high school. There was a party at a different friend's house every night for over a week, I went to them all, got excessively drunk at each, and genuinely felt I'd die by the end
Salt and pepper chips, now. Excitable suggestion about cake, to you earlier. Oh yes.
the book thing going around is good. this place needs more of a myspace quiz vibe
One reason I don't like the trolley problem is because no one rides trolleys anymore and also can't we all just be friends instead
i have done no further research, but the thumbnails paint some kind of picture.
looking for something to watch ITV: we have a lot of dramas about murder. like... *so* many me: anything else in entertainment? ITV: banana man me: uh... ok. what about documentaries? ITV: we have dozens about murder me: hmm. anything not about murder? ITV: do you like celebrities holding dogs?
saw a relative for the first time in 10yrs yesterday and asked if he remembered printing and taping together a map for this game in 1990. he's Very Poorly but immediately lit up and talked about playing with my dad, and i talked about folding and unfolding that map years later as a core game memory.
Solstice is one of my earliest video game memories, and has an unrivalled expectation/reality disparity between the box art and the character sprite
they should've put tom holland in dune instead of that other guy
i have evolved beyond the need for sleep (not true)
One thing video games have over film is collecting shards. Regardless of how big Christopher Nolan goes with his camera, his movies will never allow us to collect shards.
there are a lot of philosophical concepts that get egregiously misused out of the seminar room (and in the seminar room, to be fair). but in terms of sheer pernicious misuse "social construct" has gotta be top 5 somewhere and it's not number 5
Channel 4 has announced documentary “The Great ADHD Myth?” It “seeks to determine whether ADHD is a genuine neurodevelopmental disorder, or a social construct.”
I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time. I crowdsourced and then finalized this document "How to disable or avoid intrusive AI" and then gave it a short URL: notoai.org Please pass along if it's useful
The Richard Scarry instagram account is truly a gift
a finger on the monkey's paw curls; philosophers are talking about flirting
i can't believe any of you care about the odyssey *that much*
bluesky is weird. how do i have more followers than Playboy?
