Male Victims of Coercive Control; Experience and Impact
Male Victims of Coercive Control; Experience and Impact
  1. This report reflects the UK findings of two recent international surveys investigating the experiences of male victims of domestic abuse from their current or former partners which included coercive control.

  2. The report provides an understanding of the types and levels of coercive control experienced by male victims in the UK including emotional, psychological, economic and sexual, as well as isolation.

  3. The findings demonstrate that male victims experience severe and longstanding negative effects from female perpetrated coercive control including anxiety, depression, post-traumatic distress and suicidal ideation.

  4. Recommendations are made to ensure that awareness of men’s experiences are raised, the severity of the impact on male victims is sufficiently recognised, and this is measured and addressed in a gender specific manner.

Neil Gaiman's reply/explanation to a question about Wanda, in The Sandman
Neil Gaiman's reply/explanation to a question about Wanda, in The Sandman

Contains an answer to this question:

Neil, you've written a trans woman character in Sandman but the way the story develops makes it seem like you think trans women arent actual women. And well, considering what you said about your friend, im sure thats not the case. So... could you clarify things? (i hope this doesnt sound accusatory, thats not how i mean it)

Why logging out via a GET URL is a bad idea
Why logging out via a GET URL is a bad idea
Fun tweet from a while ago now that highlights the fun to be had by having side-effects hanging off a GET rather than a POST; from a time when it more or less still wasn't quite the issue it ended up being.

Fixing a Quest 2 that thinks it's in 2037, using SideQuest
Fixing a Quest 2 that thinks it's in 2037, using SideQuest

By the looks of things update 37 has caused problems for some (including me) where the Quest decides it's in 2037. After that the Wi-Fi connection looks like it has limited Internet and few things that need a connection work well.

The fix, other than a factory reset, is to set the time by hand; which the Quest 2 won't let you do. So... SideQuest to the rescue!

Why is LinkedIn so cringe
Why is LinkedIn so cringe

There's something about LinkedIn that makes it way more cringe (good word for it really) than any other social network I've ever used. But I've never been able to put my finger on what it is I don't like about it.

This comes close to covering it.
