The first thing I did last year was run | Henry From Online
On the eve of the new year, 2025, I was possessed by the spirit of adventure, and drove to Wyoming in the middle of the night. Hijinks, as is eternally their way, ensued.

broke down how I built the CRT effects on hypertext.tv entirely using vanilla CSS 🧵
hey! thanks :)
there are a few different effects going on here, and they're all made with vanilla CSS. i'll try to break them down.
this is what the general markup looks like. there's a television wrapper with a few overlay layers: the two we're interested in are .screen-blur and .scanlines!

I am one of the most published academics on the childhood social transition, with 5 peer reviewed articles that relate to the topic.
There is so much evidence of benefit of social transition.
There is no evidence of harm. Not one jot.
This will literally kill trans kids. No exaggeration.

I’ve purchased an absolute stunner of a crochet pattern and I’m a bit concerned it’s going to be too tricky / fiddly for me to get into.

Spent the weekend recording strings at Strongroom for new Rumour Cubes tracks (for a given value of ‘new’) and it was so great, it’s really given me a lift mentally.

That guardian article about McSweeny’s departure amid briefings about Starmer fighting any leadership challenge, briefings against Streeting etc, didn’t all that happen months ago? That’s not why he’s resigned? Have they published the wrong story?

I need everyone to know that on the crochet subreddit the mods made a big post about how they're taking a week off because there was too much fighting/political posts. so there's currently no mods on r/crochet and people are being absolutely insane

In order to attend a gig at the Brixton Academy tonight, for which I have purchased a ticket with actual money, I have to download two separate apps, both of which require me to create an account, and both of which want me to share my location with them and enable notifications.

It’s so cruel - and what next? People are housed in hotels (& barracks) often out of town, bus routes are scarce & the weekly allowance is pitiful. Charities can step in, but are people now just going to get sick? What is the plan here?
Do they understand how mad they sound? As if anyone has ever decided to cross the Channel in a small boat because, if they make it, they might get to take a free taxi to a doctor's appointment?
