Happy Pi Day!

I've been so busy I almost forgot!

🚨 Wide ranging powers to restrict Internet access in the UK have been voted through 🚨

Ministers will be able to impose digital ID checks, curfews and VPN restrictions without Parliamentary scrutiny.

This can be used on websites, social media, apps and games with no need to show there's any harm to children.

I love that Dropout's started doing more absurdist, surrealist, and just plain *weird* shit. Some of the standup specials have definitely been in that vein, and now they licensed "Don't Hug Me, I'm Scared"'s TV show which definitely fits within that. Very Important People also gives that kind of vibe.

Very different from its CollegeHumor days, but definitely scratches an itch for me!
