I have this idea for something...I have celiac disease, and I realized that one of the most difficult things I deal with is a lack of clarity on which items contain gluten, especially in other languages.

What if we had universally accepted allergen icons used on all prepacked items?

@annaecook Related, but not specifically to celiac disease -- I really like the work that are doing and it makes me happy when I see a product that has adopted their labels.

If they UK wanted to fix their economy, they should appoint money-saving-expert Martin Lewis to be in charge of the coffers.

Now that the UK has announced a Genital Election, I'm really looking forward to all the political content coming our way.

This isn't even sarcasm. I love a UK election.

See, this sort of content is great. A bunch of people who always vote Tory being asked if they will still vote Tory and they mostly will.

@dick_turpin In "the group chat" there is a lot of love happening for @CountBinface right now.

@brie @alexisbushnell I would be interested in seeing a digital polling solution where you are presented with one of those pre-election preference tests. And you answer the questions based on the party policies and it says "Your views most closely align with Party B, E, and H. Now choose - from all parties from A to Z - who you want to vote for."

Would love to see how many people aligned with the suggestion, or just completely ignored it.

I was watching Australian Masterchef, and the audience applauded when someone made a meringue. It took me by surprise; usually Australians boo meringue.

@annika I think you’re right! Thanks for looking it up! 😎

Two of them just appeared in the garden at the same time as my daughter and I were catching bugs. 🐜

@ruud Good tip. I’ve tried this before but use it so seldom that having a specific app for it seemed overkill. A reverse image search online ( or ) usually does the trick. I was just lazy today and asked Mastodon. 😅

Sometimes when you #search the web you want to make sure your results are from some clever people.

That's why I made a #Mojeek Search Focus that will only return results from #university websites and #encyclopedia.

You can try it by going to the Mojeek Focus Dashboard and turning the feature on.

See here: https://mastodon.social/@Mojeek/112512007163410773

@bogo If you want to read it like that, then yes 😆

It was more that the top results for many queries are populated with nonsense articles that are purely written to hit the top results in search results and serve you adverts, and not actually be a useful, well thought through article.

@jonhicks Listening to Apple Music radio now, and they’re playing the top 100. Great to hear some classics again.
