If I don't see a couple of hundred pictures of people going to Halloween parties as bowsette this year I will be very, very surprised
why doesn't tony stark just give all the other avengers cool suits of armour?
Interfaces that have only pictures on all the buttons aren't intuitive and aren't at all helpful
"Oh, that option's in the "edit" menu"
"and which fucking hieroglyph is that signified by, dickhead?"

Surely a rock is a rock

I'm very glad moths are now getting the appreciation they so richly deserve
solid, that berners-lee thingy
Looks interesting
I'm a little put off by him saying that he sees "Market opportunities" and is working with business people
But that might just be my kneejerk "fuck that corper shit" response coming in

facebook hack
Quite predictably, Facebook has just quietly admitted that the recent security fault that compromised 50 million accounts didn't just affect Facebook
It also affected anything using Facebook Login, including Instagram and Tinder

UK politics, disaster for the Tories, doxxing
The Conservatives have an app for their conference, and it lets you log in with just an email address - no pw, no verification email, nothing. Just "Welcome Mr. Gove!"
Boris Johnson and Michael Gove's profiles have of course been trashed already, and the phone numbers made public.
It's fairly well known that it was hard to get europeans to really take to the potato when they first came across it
Here's my theory of why that was
It wasn't because the europeans were afraid of new foods, it was because they thought "oh, a new plant, wait, it's in the NIGHTSHADE family?! The same family of plants that has one just called DEADLY?! And you want us to EAT IT?!?!? FUCK. THAT. SHIT."
an' I say GENDER?! I 'ardly know 'er!
I wonder when and how humanity decided that mint should be the default flavour of toothpaste

Reminder: every Mastodon instance is run by a human being and administered by a small group of human beings (and that small group may number 1). Attacking an instance means attacking the person who runs it.
This reminder is especially relevant if you're a mastodon admin. You don't get to pretend that other instances are monoliths when you know that your own isn't.

Gay as in "whether or not we're of the 'same gender', this relationship falls well outside the scope of what's expected by cishetero-patriarchy".

clarification for non-brits
Sixth form is where you go if you're between 16 and 19 and got good grades in school
I ended up leaving after the first year of that after my AS levels because reasons
one of the CDs was Ozric Tentacles which I'm sure might explain a lot
Honestly I spent most of my time at sixth form in the common room listening to Muse and anything else we had a CD of handy
