It's disappointing and very frustrating to hear the *Justice Minister* say it's unacceptable to question the law.

What kind of thinking is that?

If we didn't question laws;
- women wouldn't have the vote
- abortion would be illegal
- being gay would be illegal

'Unacceptable' to question Supreme Court gender ruling, says justice secretary
Shabana Mahmood said judges at the UK's highest court had provided "legal clarity".

The Supreme Court ruling is beyond disappointing. Trans people, LGBTQ+ people & their allies have every right to feel scared & concerned for not only what the implications of this judgement mean but also how trans people are perceived by, what is generally, a largely misinformed section of society.

This is vomit inducing populist nonsense I expected to hear from Musk and Trump.

Not from our own Government.

Absolutely to Hell with Laura Kuenssberg.

Asking Zelensky if he wants to express "... some regret to President Trump after your heated confrontation at the White House...".

What was his part, Laura? Being ambushed by two amateur politicians?

I don't comment on politics much these days because it's exhausting, but I started a petition to get the UK Government to rescind Trump's state visit invitation.

I'm not hopeful but please sign anyways.

We should not be endorsing Trump's behaviour.

Petition: Ask the King to rescind Trump's second stage visit invitation
Recently President Trump and Vice President Vance have displayed a horrid example of diplomacy by needlessly dressing down President Zelensky whilst repeating Putin's propaganda. This is embarrassing...

Any of my techie friends have recommendations for recruitment agencies or companies offering visa sponsorship in London?

Asking for a friend!

Just cancelled my Google Workspace account as their continued reversal of DEI policies is just enough.

Not even half way through Section 31 and already I hate it.

I don't want to be a dramatic and reactionary fan and say the franchise is ruined but the franchise is ruined.

I ordered Tapioca flour and it arrived this morning.

I now have the Tapioca Tap in my head.

Meanwhile in this country there is no trust because employers want us all back in the office or moaning at us for wanting to favour work:life balance.

As with many things, the Scandi's have it right.

The Nordic nation doesn't require staff to work long hours and has a generous welfare system.

Genuinely, what has happened to the web industry, specifically front end, when I can't write HTML or CSS anymore?

Why do I need to use someone else's abstraction (aka. "component library") because "CSS is hard" and "accessibility is hard".

This weekend I've been one very happy Legacy of Kain fan.

To see my all time top two games get remastered _and_ remastered well with the love and care they deserve is just... unimaginable after two decades of silence.

(Not to discredit Nosgoth! The community fan day was fun, though!)
