Great lunch with a friend today. I'm always amazed how she is late every time though. I literally met her at the bottom of her street and she was still ten minutes late ๐
If I could have one wish granted in my life it would be that nerds would understand I might be one of them but you could not pay me enough money to give one solitary fuck about DnD
You know the economy is in the toilet when the scams have moved from
"YOU'VE WON THE LOTTERY๐๐๐"
And are instead
"There's a remote job that pays ยฃ15 an hour"
As glad as I am that Channel 4 is doing it's part for investigative journalism. This problem is they as showing up Farage and Robinson as grifters, but they're preaching to the choir. Their money grabbing illegal activities aren't going to do anything to their following.
They're cult leaders! Same as trump and his MAGA following. Nothing is going to be bad enough for any of them to leave these groups that have told them that they are right about everything. Deprogramming is the only weapon.
After watching coyote Vs acme yesterday I'm sad to say I thought it was a really shitty movie.
The gags were....ok? But the rest of the movie was so poor. Script was shit. Pacing was fucked. I think once people get over the novelty and nostalgia of it, the realisation will set in
in honor of the legendary Tim Curry, please ponder & enjoy my extremely viral contribution to Muppet lore
what a deep loss for all of us who love and value theater, panache, and good old-fashioned camp ๐ค I will miss him forever
Look I don't like women being filmed in public spaces without their consent either. But meta glasses didn't start it. We've been filmed without consent for DECADES with phones, CCTV, drones and go-pros.
BUT THE MOMENT THE ONE USED BY BLIND/VI PEOPLE IS MISUSED IT NEEDS TO BE BANNED????
I was at an opticians yesterday and they were selling the Ray-Ban Pervert Glasses.
I'd never gotten a close look before.
They are virtually visually indistinguishable from any other pair of sunglasses unless you REALLY know what to look for.
Ban them immediately, what the fuck?
I had this conversation with Thew last night who had only seen the pervert glasses narrative. When I showed him how they are used by blind and VI people he was amazed as he had no idea this was an application for them. And that's from a guy with a VI wife who he has lived with for 3 years.
I agree they need regulation and maybe you need a licence for them, I dunno. But there may well be a time when my vision drops like a stone and this tech might be the difference between independence or the life of a shut in.

I'm visually impaired. And although I get along fine without meta glasses I have seen THOUSANDS of blind and VI people describe them as life changing. Especially those who have had sudden sight loss this tech has enabled them to maintain a level of independence they thought they had lost.

We didn't attend Nottingham Pride this year because we were in London for my birthday celebrations but we did manage to bump into a guy on the bus into town wearing this.
โ Right on old man!
This has been breaking my heart all week. Kayleigh is an old school friend of mine and her beautiful 6 year old Sienna was the victim of a hit and run. 2 teenagers on a motorbike riding illegally on a cycle path hit Sienna leaving her with catastrophic injuries.
If you are able to, please donate to Sienna's gofundme which will fund any medical equipment or support Sienna may need to support her recovery.

Argentina are cheating fucks
Tuchel made crappy calls and might as well had Messi take penalties for the second half.
FIFA is a corrupt organisation that can't even be arsed to hide it anymore.
As part of ongoing World Cup celebrations and a nod to the outstanding work of Jude Bellingham and his black country roots, it's my personal belief that every chippy in the country should be serving orange chips ๐งก๐
Like Farage is that little kid at school that bigs himself up with absolute bullshit
"I'm a black belt in Kung foo/my dad's a mercenary"
and we've all collectively said
"ok big man. Show how tough you are. Go fight that bin"
My glasses broke last night and as some of you may know I can see precisely fuck all without my glasses. So I've got an old pair with a slightly different prescription and the frames are a lot smaller. So basically this is me for the rest of the morning
