£19 for a standard Sunday dinner. No wonder half the country is overweight or worse! Far too much food.

An oval plate with peas, mash, a huge Yorkshire pudding, carrots, chips, and huge slabs of turkey, gammon, and more trimmings.

Yes, that's exactly right. The writing has been on the wall for years - rather than read it, you watched Fox instead.

When you call President Trump a "rapist" or
"pedophile," you're not only insulting your president - but also supporters like me.
After all, if you think I'm the type of person who would vote for a rapist — you must not think highly of me.
Is that the message you want to send?

Looking to dump Google Maps because of this whole lake renaming shit? Well, mapy.com does a much better job of getting you to places, and includes info such as opening times, but better cycle maps, hiking directions, and doesn't donate to a fascist dictator. Win-win.

For anyone unsure - this is how you do it. And I'm now going to use www.mapy.com (from the makers of the very excellent windy.com) as a replacement. Also, Citymapper is excellent for in-city public transit navigation. Thanks, and fuck you, Google.

Good god. Is it any wonder people don't use email anymore, when the very same companies that attempt to profit from it destroy the medium for everyone? This is a fucking taxi company. You're not that important!

It has been 0️⃣ days since I last woke up grateful I was not living in the USA.

An excerpt of a live blog written by Aishvarya Kavi, reporting from the National Mall:

It is a chaotic scene on the National Mall. Several hundred people have refused to leave despite an order to evacuate because of severe inclement weather that is approaching. Some are even arguing with Secret Service agents. At one point, a crowd of people began running back toward the stage. An officer is sternly repeating the order over a bullhorn and the crowd is booing. Many have begun chanting "U.S.A., U.S.A." A federal law enforcement officer is trying to assure people that the event has not been canceled. Many are not convinced. One man walking by blamed the situation on "liberals in the weather service," adding,

"I think this is baloney"

Why would I want my PDF reader to remind me that people are ignoring me

The M365 app, nudging me relentlessly to use it. Repetitively, it chirps "haven't heard back? Draft a polite follow-up in seconds" as it desperately demands the tender touch of my fingertips via my already heavily saturated notification stream. It's 2026 and my PDF reader is taking to me. What a time to be alive.

Went to the Coffin Works in Birmingham with a partner today and saw lots of things that made me long for the simpler, older times. But then I remembered that nostalgia lenses are a bitch. And also spied a Openreach phone socket mounted to a conduit at head height. www.coffinworks.org

I used archive.org to sue a former employer for breach of contract, by recovering stuff on their job vacancy listing which I'd challenged and then they'd changed. If you want to hold people to account an accurate record is vital. And if you have used archive.org to get yourself out of a pinch...
