My name is Alex Drake. I've been shot and that bullet's taken me back in time. Now I'm lost in 1982...

Been to the shops. It's a bit nippy out there so time for #coffee and #homemade bread pudding.
A picture of which might appear here if #cloudflare gets its shit together 🙂
Apparently it's my 3 year #Fediversary. I joined mastodonapp.uk on 8th November 2022 although I vaguely recall signing up experimentally somewhere else in 2020 or 2021 but I can't remember where and I didn't stick around.
Anyway I'm still here.
Also on cupoftea.social because it's good to have options 🙂

cupoftea.social appears to have gone AWOL.

Stop the Chat Control – Protect our Civil Rights!
The European Commission proposes a new surveillance tool supposed to help in the fight against child abuse depictions and grooming online: the so called Chat Control. Under this proposal, all messages, photos and videos that you send via messenger services such as WhatsApp, Telegram or Signal, would be scanned for that kind of content, even bypassing encryption. All civilians would be placed under general suspicion and monitored. The risk of misuse by the authorities is enormous.
