In the most glorious "fuck you" I have seen in a while, you know the book that Cumberland City Council banned because they're homophobic bigots - Holly Duhig's "A focus on Same Sex Parents"? Well, the publisher, BookLife Publishing, have made a PDF version of the book available for free.

Sure be a shame if it was shared far and wide now, wouldn't it?

Every time you ban a book filled with hope and kindness, and care and love, we will resist.

It would be a shame if people re-posted them.

Oops, I just did.

The NYT ran a post by the editorial board called ‘A Failure of Leadership in American Universities’, and it is true, American universities have failed to protect students and the right to protest genocide, but that’s not what they mean because the NYT itself is a failure in every way

@skinnylatte

I momentarily misread that as 'a failure in an ivory way', and somehow that makes sense as well.

This is tricky. I’d love for Klopp to win a third time , and you could make an argument, but really Unai Emory has to win from this list.

In my view, Arteta has overperformed too. I didn't expect Arsenal to be the most resilient of the top three teams today.

Even if the title eventually goes to Guardiola –and I really hope it does not– Arteta will still be the top performer of the other three Spaniards.

That can never be a bottle. If somebody tells you that that's a bottle, it's because they can't tell a bottle from a jar.

Klopp has never lost a Premier League game in the merry, merry month of May, having won nine and drawn four of the 13 top-flight matches he has overseen in the fifth month of the year.

A record that looks to be extended today.

Watching Larry Summers bloviate on CNN about student protesters is completely gag-worthy...arrogant in the extreme.

I should be clear: He's for freedom of expression, in some cases.

@dangillmor Imagine campaigning for Democrats to get Biden elected when Biden is helping Netanyahu.

The DNC is not only complicit in mass murder, but also in its own electoral suicide.

They're making things really hard, next to impossible.

Leaked State Dept. Memo: Israel Likely Violates International Law Using US Arms

We have excellent players, we had an incredible season, and next season we will have Champions League football, and a clean slate again. Having fought for the title on top of that was way more than most of us would have asked when the season started.

I'm grateful for everything Jürgen has done, and it does seem that it's a good time for him to get a much deserved rest. No one at LFC has deserved it more in a long time.

The most personal data from more than 13 million people who have healthcare from Kaiser Permanente was given to Microsoft, Google and others. How? Looks like Kaiser's web/mobile applications went all in with the spyware Big Tech seeds into everything it can.

https://www.theregister.com/2024/04/26/kaiser_patient_data/

The people who run Kaiser should lose their jobs for this. They won't. They'll blame some underlings who won't be held accountable in any real way.

Do you know what were Sadio Mané's numbers in 2020-2021 across all competitions?
16 goals, 8 assists.

Do you know what are Darwin Núñez's numbers in 2023-2024 across all competitions?
18 goals, 13 assists.

Just so we are clear in case your numeracy is lacking, 18 is a bigger number than 16, and 13 is a bigger number than 8.

Just admit that your hate is stupid and irrational, learn arithmetic, or turn off the TV, it makes you very stupid.

@mike @lastwordonsport

I enjoy it when other teams underestimate any of our players.

On the other hand, the effect of some of our alleged supporters underestimating our players, and lashing out on ourselves here when they feel validated by the hateful media on their most basic instincts is what nauseates me most.

Self-defeating and very stupid.

Horrible start (again), but if any of the big chances were finished (Nunez & DIaz), we'd be far less concerned about the chronic issues in the squad (tepid starts & a lack of creativity moving the ball forward from the back).

The difference really boils down to finishing and fouls called (9-3).

The last 10 minutes were really good. There is reason for hope.

vruz,
@vruz@mastodon.social avatar

@mlawton the difference boils down that we have three forwards and only two of them are playing.

It's just easier to complain about Darwin and Lucho than it is to do a fair reality check to see that Mo Salah has been absent in the last three or four games.

The burden is on the senior champion, not on his juniors.

When I cook for people I have to remind myself ‘normal spice levels’ (I rarely cook for no spice people!) but when I’m bachelor pad eating left to my own devices it’s tuna melt with habanero hot sauce, harissa, chilli powder and Thai chillies (on top of regular spices, like cumin, black pepper, white pepper)

I'm reading Astrotopia by Mary-Jane Rubenstein and it's just amazing. I don't usually make it through books that are on depressing topics like the destruction of orbit, but this book is fascinating and real while also being completely hilarious. Like, I have laughed out loud multiple times while reading it and I'm only halfway through.

It's all about how the "NewSpace" tech bro billionaires are using the language of manifest destiny and see themselves as end-of-the-world prophets. Wowee.

What would you consider as the most recognizable bitmap fonts in tech history?

I’m imagining stuff like:

  • the arcade/Atari font
  • Chicago (Mac, then iPod)
  • VCR/video equipment fonts
  • Minecraft font
  • IBM PC fonts (MDA, VGA, stuff like that)
  • perhaps System font from Windows 3.x
  • Commodore 64, just because of the sheer popularity of the machine

What am I missing?

    I have loads of grading and stupid committee stuff and proposals to read and (another) thesis to read (and still that awful referee response to deal with) and my kids are super grumpy.

    But I just scheduled an interview for a National Geographic article later in the week so that's pretty darn cool.

    Also, baby goats are coming sooooon. First goat mama is due on Sunday!
