    Went to Truro Pride today with kiddo. Parade was turned into a solidarity march this year, due to gross BS that&#39;s happened locally recently. (Drag story time cancelled due to threats.) Highlight was seeing someone dressed as Spider-Man who, after the march, was happy to pose with kiddo for photos. Regardless of it being a march, it was smaller than previous years in the city. #Cornwall #PrideSeason 1/2

    Planning on giving Marvel Rivals a bit more of a go. Really hard still figuring out how it works. If anyone knows of any good guides for newbies, send them my way. The several I&#39;ve tried reading still assume some familiarity with the genre. #videogames #MarvelRivals

    Well, here&amp;#39;s where I get off, Evernote. I&amp;#39;ve used you for over 14 years but I&amp;#39;m not paying £154.90 to be able to have more than 1000 notes and AI features that I don&amp;#39;t want to use. I&amp;#39;m heading for Joplin, synching with stuff I&amp;#39;ve already got. UPDATE: Now looking like Obsidian. #Evernote #end_of_evernote #joplin #Obsidian

    I have not been awake this early in a long while. About to hit the road and head up to Exeter for BSides Exeter. Stopping for breakfast en route.

    When people create professional groups centred around women, but fail to account for professional women who are parents of young children or carers, when they set early evening times for things, I get pissed off. This is a sub post about one such group. It is only by pure chance of the work shift gods that my husband is available to look after kiddo during the initial, *online* meet at 6:30pm. Yes, let&amp;#39;s create a women professionals group, and ignore a challenge for many of them.

    Someone&amp;#39;s released a Python script so that you can check whether any of your LinkedIn connections are in the Epstein Files. I might be trying this out in the coming weeks. https://github.com/cfinke/EpsteIn

    I was once paid to write about the history of Valentine&amp;#39;s Day... But this was back in the bad days of pre-2012 Penguin update Google Search. While my article was factual, it made it really hard for the black hat SEO company that hired me, to bung in dodgy backlinks for their end customer. They never used the article. But here&amp;#39;s the thing, we&amp;#39;re closer to shitty Google Search than ever before. So, here&amp;#39;s a Valentine&amp;#39;s Story you probably weren&amp;#39;t ex...
