10 years ago we lost David Bowie, Prince, Alan Rickman and, just, so many more artists no matter the medium. We have not been okay since. Like, as a species.

Great piece by Lisa Needham for Aaron Rupar’s Public Notice: Trump meme coin investors, including rich foreigners, have lost $3.81 billion but gained an opportunity to bribe the president of the United States. It’s mindblowingly corrupt.

Had a new schedule at work drop today, and to no ones surprise, Pain-in-the-arse colleague (who is still off sick) complained about their shifts. "I don't want to walk home when its dark" - Translation: I don't want to work the close (5pm finish). Within seconds a new schedule is posted...

Friends, can we all block and report @scuba-diving-5.bsky.social — they are pretending to sell my stuff on merch (check their replies tab), but it’s a credit card number theft scam. Hopefully nobody got ripped off, but if you did, call your credit card company ASAP.

I got really annoyed that so many stories about the "Cornell 7" case don't link to the underlying court documents. So I compiled the key filings from Jane Doe's civil suit and from a separate suit brought by one of the accused. Read them here: annabower.substack.com/p/read-the-c...

FFS, Colleague at work has called in sick again today, so I am covering on my day off. Also: Colleague coincidentally does not have childcare again. Colleague also refuses to get a doctors note for their 'illnesses' because 'its not needed'. Our area manager is back off holiday in 3 days.

The next Muppets movie should be them doing a performance of Lord of the Rings, all while trying to stave off the closure of the theatre. And because they are struggling to find actors, they grab whomever they can get for the parts. Like Daniel Radcliffe as Frodo because he was great in the movie.

The plot, she thickens! So yeah, another extended shift done with an early close of the restaurant. Colleague who was supposed to close did the open. And the other Colleague... may not actually have been ill. Or if they were, it just magically coincided with their parents suddenly not...

You know things are going well at work when you mention something and the group-chat goes instantly quiet. A colleague is on holiday and another just called in sick today. Latter colleague is A) Pain in the backside, and B) supposed to open tomorrow. (Not so) Subtle manipulation begins.

There was a time of wonder, when, once we had freed ourselves from the 'the placeholder with no name'. It was a time of rediscovery. When we could find ourselves, each other, and new friends in the bargain. It was liberating. Like being naked at a salad bar. We felt free.

Anyone who sees this and cannot join the dots between the end of the BBC and the end of the UK’s world renowned TV industry… frankly, I despair… We need change, yes. We need to get good at making low budget risky TV again, absolutely. But axe it and say goodbye to anything but mid Atlantic dross.

Erika Ishii's inclusion is not a "controversial announcement". This is elevating weird gamergaters' boring whining as deserving of attention. There's no "sides" to this, there's no "issue": It's a talented performer who's done nothing wrong being hated for who they are.
