It's the makaton sign for "Naughty, bad". It implies that this individual has a learning disability as makaton is used for communication with pupils and adults with learning disabilities, especially non-verbal or severe learning disabilities. In video you can see him using two hands, little fingers.

What step is wishing for children to drown in the English Channel? What step is attacking the RNLI? What step is a party leader cackling at a lone woman being mob assaulted in the middle of a political rally? How many steps away are we from the death camps?

Microsoft actually using common sense. I'm shocked! Now if I can see Steam do the same thing (So I can laugh at the ridiculous adult games store pages) that would be nice.

Always check the sources, and look out for red flags. On here I saw figures which made no sense, AI content, Comments disabled on post. So I went to the Source, More In Common, downloaded the results of the latest poll and made my own chart using the raw data. It tells a much different story.

This makes me think of Handa's surprise. Best thing about this book is that the author wrote it after visiting an African tribe and based the characters on, and named them after, people she met on her visit.

5 black/Muslim people injured by a white person wielding 2 knives yesterday. How would the front page have looked if it was 5 white people injured by a Muslim? Because this is how the front page of the BBC looks this morning. You can't tell anything happened.

I reported someone for straight up calling Nursery Age Children and Nursery staff "N***ers" in a comment on a Department for Education post on Facebook. Apparently blatant hate crimes are no longer against Facebook community standards. That comment had been there for 7 weeks and had 10 likes, too.

Who could ever have known the Online Safety Act was not safe?! Nobody could have seen this coming!

One of our games is on sale for 90% off* Next highest discount is 75% off, of which only 2 games are. Next Highest is 50% off, of which 7 games are. Corrected it for you. Doesn't seem crazy. But does seem reasonable. Still good value to be had but my marketing BS radar proved true here.

"We're not racist, we are just patriotic!" As they spew hatred towards people raising money for charity because they're Sikh.

It helps me to just see it as a maths thing. A lb of human fat contains on average 3,500 calories of energy. Therefore if you create a 3,500 calorie deficit you lose 1lb of fat on average. Since November I've lost 36kg like this, and now weigh 66kg. I keep a little chart, weight is in lbs.

Today on my little adventures I spotted a friend. I try not to intervene in nature but it was crawling around on and near a footpath with a lot of foot traffic, dogs and bicycles that travel over it, so I moved it a little bit off into the undergrowth. #TouchGrass

On my walk today I spotted a great many things. The birds were too flighty to photograph, the rabbits too hoppy, and the thousands of baby fish too glittery. This mushroom, possibly an Agaricus Augustus (Prince), was more than happy to pose for me, though. #TouchGrass

In 1984 lesbians and gays joined miners striking when the government sequestered union funding. The trade unions have not forgotten the support received from a community that seemed a world apart from the miners, and since then trade unions march in solidarity in pride protests (Today In Darlington)

Was followed all the way through the field by these mischievous boys. Can't say I'm still not intimidated by them even though I know bullocks are the least dangerous cattle since they're not territorial like bulls or protective and hormonal like cows, they're still pretty big! #TouchGrass

This is a sleeper bridge, so-called because they use reclaimed rail line wooden sleepers from disused tracks. If you have a history of rail travel in your area, you may find these sleeper bridges when you #TouchGrass

Allow 16-17 year olds to vote and then block their access to information regarding things which 16-17 year olds are likely to vote based on. (I volunteer with young people and they talk about global conflict often) But it's ok, it's 'protecting children'.

A fantastic example of Dryad's saddle (Cerioporus squamosus) on a tree stump in my local church ground. I love the patterns of the brown scales. They remind me of crepe style pancakes. #TouchGrass

Direct Messaging? NO. The Online Safety Act does NOT cover that. Bsky apparently didn't even bother managing to read the act. Nothing says 'direct messaging' or 'chat' or mentions anything specific to DM or chat. www.gov.uk/government/p...

I reported this comment on Facebook. It was in response to a woman who was seeking help on applying for financial help for her grandchild that she's the sole carer of. It took a week for Facebook to respond with "We did not remove this comment as it does not breach our community guidelines".

I may not be beautiful or be creative enough to make something beautiful, but I can choose to leave a place more beautiful than I found it. Bring a bag when you go walking and fill it with the litter you come across on your travels.

I've got a strange love of this particular Birch tree. It's not really special in any way. It's young and small. It's not in a special or beautiful place. But it's out there, on its own, just trying it's best. I call it the Lonely Birch Tree. It's great to see it with leaves now too. Love you, LBT.

@bedgar.bsky.social Hello Ben, I'm a Scout leader and was looking through the program when I saw that you can actually get a Warhammer Badge as a scout. Warhammer provide us the materials free of charge, with the obvious benefit to them that they get the kids interested. Your thoughts?

Fun fact: In a lot of schools in the UK the term "Fidget Toy" is banned. They must be referred to as a "Focus Aid", this is to remove negative connotations around them. The one I like is actually a large rubber band that goes around the legs of a chair, to keep a child sat in the chair properly.
