For those struggling to keep up: Attempted murder = activism (with a side order of understandable concerns) Holding up a placard = terrorism.

Whoever ends up making the next series of Doctor Who, I hope they use some of that screen time to address the legitimate concerns of the Daleks.

Okay so @defector.com has had an odd glitch since the site redesign a couple of weeks back where the wrong photo and headline are often put together on the main page and I was going to ask them about fixing it but this just happened and as far as I'm concerned they have to leave it as is.
Screenshot for a Defector podcast episode with the headline "Consider the Emotional Lives of Scallops" only the accompanying photo is a white gormless stubbled red-headed UK singer of recent notoriety giving a flat smile to the camera while wearing a washed out peach top as beige as he is against a flat background. So, actually, probably a scallop anyway.

If we really want to honor Tim Curry's memory, then we have to publish like 8 different obituaries, each with a different and entirely plausible cause of death.

The Great Impotence Myth? Scientists seek to determine whether erectile dysfunction is real or a social construct, and speculate that the older generation may be turning to pills simply because they're too lazy to google big jiggly butts any more. Channel 4 asks: how hard can it be?

With #teletext you never had to muck about with CAPTCHAs. The 30 second or so wait for your selected page to appear was much more bearable in comparison.
A teletext page with the header "captchoozle!".

At the top of the page is the prompt "to verify you are a human, select the image of a car". There are a group of four large icons arranged as a two by two grid of black icons on white rectangular backgrounds. Each icon has a prompt above consisting of a coloured square and the name of that colour next to the square.

The icons are of a tram with a "red" prompt, a tractor with a "green" prompt, a car with a "yellow" prompt and a lorry with a "blue" prompt.

I have decided at 38 to embrace the fact I remain absolutely incapable of riding a bike and opt for something that seems feasible and might actually bring me joy.
An adult trike. It is cute and purple and has a basket on the back.
