In London for work, discovered the outdoor pool at the Oasis Sports Centre. Ran there, swam for 45 mins, ran back to hotel. Fabulous!!!

Quiet revival: myth or reality?

Recent research suggests that young men in Britain are turning increasingly to faith. Madeleine Davies takes some soundings

Last night Anna Troup won the ladies race of Race Across Scotland, finishing 4th overall. This after outright winning the summer Spine Race in June. After nearly 3 years out with injury. Oh, and she's 55 for anyone thinking age makes the slightest difference in ultra events. Inspirational!

For six months, I've said that threats to economic data have been more collateral damage than intentional harm. No longer. Firing the head of the BLS is five-alarm intentional harm to the integrity of US economic data and the entire statistical system.

Between May and July, Russia’s Federal State Statistics Service stopped publishing nearly all major demographic data. Here’s what this level of censorship means — and what the country’s last “living snapshot” reveals. meduza.io/en/feature/2...

Thought-provoking and fascinating talk by @kevinguyan.bsky.social at tonight’s joint @rssedinburgh.bsky.social & @rssdiversity.bsky.social event; on the importance of box breakers and careful design of classification studies. Some helpful considerations ⬇️ Highly recommend his new book #rainbowtrap

Slide stating WE NEED TO...
expose the design decisions behind gender, sex and sexuality categories.
Go beyond 'adding more' options to an ever-growing list of categories.
Understand 'Prefer Not to Say' as a choice not a datapoint to be removed
Recognise those who refuse and ensure they're not harmed by saying 'no'.

Since this is making the rounds. Just.... no. After Jesus says, "Love your Neighbor," someone asks, "And who is my neighbor?" Jesus responds with the Parable of the Good Samaritan, in which he tells the audience that the ethnic group they hate the most are their neighbors. ⚓ #ActuallyReadTheBible

Image from X saying basically, "Your neighbor is your family."

Thanks for the reminder @janemunday.bsky.social. Every summer, I repost this article DROWNING DOES NOT LOOK LIKE DROWNING. To date, I know of FOUR kids who were saved after someone who'd clicked on the link learnt how to spot actual drowning. Take time to read and pass on. slate.com/technology/2...

From the Nitpicker's Guide for Deep Space Nine Trekkers, published in 1996. The reviewer didn't think the state of the United States in 2024 as shown in the episode Past Tense, Part 1 was believable. Sounds like @roberthewittwolfe.bsky.social and Ira Steven Behr were pretty close....

Text from the book: "I wanna know what happens between now and A.D. 2024 to create the environment we see in this episode. Note that people are being detained against their will simply because they don’t have an ID! Apparently if you are just strolling down the street, a policeman can walk up to you and demand to see your identification, and if you don’t have it, you get hauled off and interned WITHOUT a trial for an INDETERMINATE amount of time! What happened to the Bill of Rights? Is the United States of America under martial law at this point? It would almost have to be. That would explain the fact that freedom of the press apparently has been rescinded as well. I have an extraordinarily difficult time believing that the media simply have no interest in what goes on within these sanctuaries." Shared from Cordelia and Connie Willis.

A corrupt, authoritarian government seizes an innocent man, tortures and jails him on trumped-up charges that change during a manipulated "legal" process. The prisoner is left at the mercy of dehumanizing politicians & jailers to do with what they please. Holy Week then. America now.
