BREAKING! In a move that the Liberal Democrat party hopes will finally deal with their transphobe problem, they have handed the Sudetenland to the transphobes.
In exchange, the transphobes pinky promised that they won’t demand any further concessions, “you know, for a bit anyway”.

Top 15 Realistic Games for Android and iOS 2024 | Best High Graphics Games for Android
My mobile gameplay channel (Tekkan Plays): @TekkanPlays It's crazy how good phone games look these days. I mean, who would have thought we'd be playing game...YouTube
@Alan Braggins bet I know which ones get played and played and played.
Never seen anyone on a train or plane or bus playing a 3D FPS thing on their phone.
But word searches and distant descendentes of Tetris? All the time.
Now smartphones are mature products we’re into the annual “this is an incremental upgrade over last year. I’m so mad replacing my 2 thousand quid perfectly functional phone with one that’s almost the same for another 2 thousand quid” cycle.
My brother in Christ; have you considered just … not?
I’m upgrading this year. My phone is 3 years old and the camera stuff is worth it for me. My step daughter is getting my old one, which she is thrilled with.

Yesterday I saw a discussion about whether you can smell in a dream.
As fate would have it, I had a lucid dream last night (I have a cold. That’s probably why), so I decided to test it.
Yes, you can smell in dreams.

OK, more digging. It's failing in line 231 of /var/www/html/src/Object/Image.php.
Which is this:
} catch (\Throwable $error) {
/** @see https://github.com/php/doc-en/commit/d09a881a8e9059d11e756ee59d75bf404d6941ed */
if (strstr($error->getMessage(), "gd-webp cannot allocate temporary buffer")) {
DI::logger()->notice('Image is probably animated and therefore unsupported', ['message' => $error->getMessage(), 'code' => $error->getCode(), 'trace' => $error->getTraceAsString(), 'file' => $this->filename]);
} else {
DI::logger()->warning('Unexpected throwable.', ['message' => $error->getMessage(), 'code' => $error->getCode(), 'trace' => $error->getTraceAsString(), 'file' => $this->filename]);
}So my suspicion was right: it's animated GIF avatars which are causing this. However, rather than fail gracefully, I'm left with a zombie worker job which seems to persist forever.

The story is whatever fascinates the media, who then become the story and feed the cycle.
It's great that the Harris team has managed to give them a new narrative to be fascinated by. This "happy warrior" story is working to feed the endless loop.
This is the first time the media's fascination with Trump's hold on what used to be considered normal people (which then amplifies the effect) hasn't been the focus of attention since 2019.
When I am empress of the universe, one of my first decrees shall be to make the past tense of “quit”, “quat”.
Because the lulz.

That's not actually irregular, it conforms to a clear pattern: Sit, sat. Drink, drank. Fit, fat.
@Rebeca @Chris Packham It is irregular. A regular verb in English has the following form:
Infinitive: (To) X
3rd person singular present indicative: Xs (or other standard plurals)
Gerund: Xing
Participle/preterit: Xed
And that’s it. There are some patterns of irregular verbs, but regular ones all have stem+ed as their past tense.
So would the pluperfect be ‘quot’?
Yikes! I haven’t used the term ‘pluperfect’ since I was fourteen.
Tired: Americano. Who the hell even knows what that is?
Wired: Espresso squash. Does exactly what it says on the tin!

Apropos of a conversation on Reddit, the British etiquette of offering tea/coffee three times, and refusing on the first two, thus:
Can I get you a tea or coffee?
Oh, no thank you.
You sure?
Yes, I'm good.
I'm making one anyway.
Oh go on then.
Now here's the thing: most of my social circle are geeks with some type of neurodiversity going on, and one thing we value is a straight bloody answer.
So it will go something like this:
Can I get you a tea or coffee?
Oh, no thank you.
OK.
I wonder how many thirsty tradespeople I've annoyed in my life?

Menopausal cis women be like: “I know I could feel like I’m 30 again, but I think I’m gonna try feeling shit for a few years” 🤔
Trans women: “Why are you doing this to yourselves? Behold our lord and saviour, HRT!”
@Heather As I understand it, without a prescription it’s legal to buy them from abroad but not from the UK. It’s legal to possess them and illegal to supply them.
There are uk sites where you can have an “online consultation” with a doctor who will rubber stamp your purchase.
Finally some HRT is now available over the counter without a prescription at Boots
@Heather @Alexandra Lanes It’s absolutely legal to possess oestrogen for personal use without a prescription.
Trans women do it … a lot, because doctors are arseholes to us.

@Captain_Jack_Sparrow @partnumber2 This is what you responded to. Where I'm very clearly not making a generalisation. You replied to this. This is what you've been basing your whole tirade on.
'People don't realise how corrupt the UK is because the British (let's be honest mainly English) know how to spin, minimise, evade & manipulate like no others. Even the British public has zero clue just how corrupt it is."
You engaged with me. You started insulting me. You wouldn't drop it. But please tell everyone how I'm the bully.
When I eventually got the joke, I belly laughed...
I feel that I'll never see an ellipsis the same way...
