This felt too valuable not to share. Braille-labeled maps of washrooms to help people find and use facilities in the washroom. Everyone deserves to get in, do their business, wash their hands, and get out in peace and safety.

This seems valuable for all public spaces.

If you've been stopped, challenged or harassed when using a single-sex space (such as toilets or changing rooms) since the UK's Supreme Court ruling on the Equality Act. We need to hear from you.

Maybe your employer has changed their policy on which loo you can use. Perhaps you've been asked to leave the changing rooms at the gym.

Let us know at: tinyurl.com/ReportALoo25

Apparently, if you have facebook or Instagram installed on your phone, was able to track your browsing habits and link them to your real identity even if you never logged in on the web, used incognito mode or a VPN. I hope Meta gets hit with every fine in the book.

The image shows a screenshot of a Twitter post by Eric Jorgenson ([@]EricJorgenson). The post reads: "Capitalism needs a logo. It's a huge miss that Communism has the Hammer & Sickle (which actually goes hard) and Capitalism has nothing. Let's do better branding for Capitalism!" The post has garnered 3.2 million views, 1.7K comments, 759 retweets, 6.8K likes, and 491 bookmarks. Below the original tweet, there is a reply from user MATSCHARELLI ([@]matscharelli) with a logo featuring a stylized dollar sign within a circle on a yellow background. The logo is a play on the Nazi swastika, symbolizing a critique of the original tweet's suggestion.

Huh. I wonder how sighted people like it.

If you get it, boost it.

Levar Burton yes/no meme. The text boxes for both images is, in reality, blank with no text at all. If you want to enjoy the meme, you have to read it here.

@brucelawson The Trump admin and its periphery continues its record-breaking streak of not surprising anyone

@codepo8 Great read, and happy belated birthday! I'm very much aligned with your sentiments in there.

I'm happy that open, extensible, and hackable/repairable things are still around, but you definitely have to go seek them out. Unfortunately the offer of convenience at the cost of control, privacy, and true ownership usually wins out for the majority.

Re: latest boost. If we opt not to support the vulnerable in our society then what good is society anyway? To me the whole point of society has always been that we look after each other.

Tax the heck out of the super rich and the only way they'll be affected is "oh no, number doesn't go up so quickly any more".

It solves absolute fuckloads of problems that are blamed on groups of people that need our help but are _blamed_ for everything instead.

Can't cook, dress, eat, or toilet unaided?

Soon, that won’t qualify you for help. 1.3 million disabled people face losing support.

Read that again. #PIP

@ironicbadger Nice!

I did a very similar thing but a bit more indirectly - sticking an infrared LED next to the IR receiver instead of what appears to be talking to the controller directly(?)

@frenck I think they belong to whichever room more time gets spent in (for no specific reason whatsoever)

@KatyElphinstone One that caught me out was "come join us, we're just going to have one more drink"
