If you have 100 million pounds you can literally do anything you want from now until the day you die and still have more than you started with. Pass a bill that anyone with more than that is clearly mentally ill and should be forcibly committed and their assets above that applied to others care.

I miss the days when I could connect my Google phone to my Windows PC and transfer files via USB. They don't let you do that any more, as far as I can tell. You have to do 100kb/s bluetooth transfers instead because fuck you. And yes, I've done all the 14 things it says to do when you google. Nope.

Here are the 28 Dem Senators who voted to advance the first federal ban on trans athletes & a federal definition of sex that would make trans & intersex people non-existent: Angela Alsobrooks (MD), Tammy Baldwin (WI), Richard Blumenthal (CT), Lisa Blunt Rochester (DE), Chris Coons (DE), ->
By a vote of 76-23, S 1071 passes the motion to proceed to the motion to concur. Won't know who voted for this until the roll call is uploaded, but safe to say it passed with the support of at least 24 members of the Democratic caucus. (Rand Paul probably voted nay and Steve Daines has been absent).

We have 2 microchip cat feeders mostly so the neighbour cats don't eat their food but also so we know if one isn't eating. The dumb one always sits at the other one's feeder for ages before giving up and trying hers. Now the smart one has started sitting at the dumb one's. They're messing with me.

CTO in latest meeting: "I know people hang on to specific words I say and go, 'oh that means this' or 'it means that' - it doesn't mean anything."

Not sure he meant to be that honest about senior management briefings.

Quoted here we have Sharron Davies talking about an FoI filed by the Women's Rights Network.

None of the people who committed these crimes were trans. Not one.

4.8% were cis male staff.

If there is an afterlife, some people still won't go anywhere because there's just nothing inside them.

We should stop putting those people in charge of shit.

Remember, being truthful in a relationship is important.

Her: What, do you think there's a washing fairy that does all your washing for you?
Me: Well... Yeah.

Congratulations #Scotland for qualifying for the #WorldCup. What a goddamn roller coaster of a match. I laughed, I cried, I actually clapped the last goal. Emotionally drained and I'm not even Scottish. Genuinely thought they were going to fuck it up AGAIN.
