This is an _extraordinary_ essay, on the work that modern technology makes us perform on its behalf – and then blames us for (“you’re addicted!”): https://www.terrygodier.com/the-last-quiet-thing

RE: https://mastodon.social/@Edent/116367891507649986 The bit that boils the blood here is the way they specifically say &quot;14 to 18 years after their initial launches&quot;, like they&#39;re reproaching customers for hanging onto their old kit for so long, when what they&#39;re actually doing is intentionally breaking products that were still working, to force people to buy new ones

Timothee Chalamet having seemed ok but then turning out to be a raging misogynist is like… well, it’s like a film Timothee Chalamet might star in

Astonishing framing by the BBC, even by their standards: framing any Iranian refusal to have Trump handpick their new head of state – something to which literally no sovereign state would agree, *by definition* – as a product of the Iranian regime’s “burning hostility” to the “Great Satan”

Flying the flag: less than 48 hours after police raided our meeting house (again), Westminster Quakers were among the thousands marching today against the US, UK and Israeli war on Iran

Just saw a post from someone saying they can’t bring themselves to care about Timothee Chalamet’s comments on ballet and opera, which is an entirely reasonable, even enviable, position to be in. I suppose one reason why I *do* care is that it’s part of a wider pattern of aggressive masculinity reasserting itself

RE: https://wandering.shop/@cstross/116200427828260418 Oh, I don’t know. “Don’t be so careful in time of death” is one of the most profound pieces of found poetry I’ve read in a while

Have been indulging in my new hobby: acquiring enormous box sets of classic sci-fi shows, ripping them onto my media server, and then not watching them because I’m playing Ace Attorney instead 👍🏻

Statement from Quakers in Britain about tonight&#39;s police raid on Westminster Meeting House. Guys, I don&#39;t think they&#39;re buying the Met&#39;s line about the nonviolent direct action training being a cover for plotting &quot;mass shoplifting&quot;

My Quaker meeting house has been raided by the police, again. The Met have arrested 12 activists at a publicly advertised Take Back Power meeting at Westminster Quaker Meeting House. Apparently more arrests have taken place outside of people who arrived late. (Source: various WhatsApp chats I’m in)

OK, looks like Philippine English already solved the “gender-neutral alternative to ‘sir’ and ‘madam’” problem :heart_nonbinary:
