  • Digest for July 2017

    Summary
    This month I shared Tom Scott's video about backdooring WhatsApp, the viral video of the brave Mormon tween coming-out to her congregation, and two (1, 2) excellent Oglaf comics. From a content-production perspective, I was in a bit of a dry spell.

  • Something old, something new

    I’m back after a long hiatus, with a new baby and (at least some of) the same old struggles. Big Bobbin is now 6 (six!) years old (how did that happen?) and New Moo is 9 months. While I was out shopping this morning, the woman at the checkout in the charity shop said “hello,…

  • 12-year-old girl comes out as gay to her Mormon congregation

    Love Is Love Is Love Is... [cut the mike]

    This week, a video of a 12-year-old girl coming out as gay to her Mormon congregation in Eagle Mountain, Utah, went viral — and it’s easy to understand why. Savannah is adorable. She wears a red tie, which is already a statement, since wearing pants to church as a woman can be controversial. She stands …

  • Digest for June 2017

    Summary
    This month I talked about a roleplaying campaign that I'd been running, found a geocache near our holiday accomodation, and shared research on user testing, subpixel rendering in CSS, and one of the first of what would ultimately turn out to be several plans Theresa May came up with by which to attempt to …

  • Found GLR9ZJ3Z T'drath #4

    This checkin to GLR9ZJ3Z T'drath #4 reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. A gentle walk yesterday evening brought us here (although we briefly overshot, engaged as we were deep in conversation and having forgotten to enable the proximity beeper on my GPSr). Spent a little time hunting in a convincing-looking …

    This checkin to GLR9ZHJJ T'drath #5 reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Our second holiday in Newport and a chance to hunt for a handful of the caches we'd missed last time around. A short walk by my partner fleeblewidget and I yesterday evening brought us to an easy find …
