David RevoyYesterday's comic was published, but the prank part for 1st April wasn't... (not ready, and too tired to finish it) A bit sad. So, I finished it this morning.

On the side of the box for a chocolate Easter egg it says "Recycle me when you've eaten me". Not sure whether "me" is referring to the egg or the box, but in either case surely recycling *after* eating is a bit shit?

The Edinburgh Minute on Instagram: "Dramatic scenes this morning as University of Edinburgh Principal Peter Mathieson was temporarily trapped inside Black Medicine Coffee as striking uni staff members on the picket line surrounded him while chanting ‘shame on you’. The @edinburghucu-organised strikes are over potential plans for compulsory redundancies. An onlooker told the Minute: “It was remarkable that the Principal thought he could cross a picket line for a coffee without encountering staff hostility at the proposed cuts, and student opposition from the occupation of Gordon Aikman Lecture Theatre. He was met with a chorus of boos as he made his way back to his office in Old College.” The picket line had been boosted by students from the Palestine student occupation of Gordon Aikman Theatre who had been served an eviction notice this morning.

StevanMust retell a joke Gary Innes told at the ceilidh. He was teaching local kids, and asked for gags to lighten the session. One kid said "How do you get an elephant into a Safeway bag?"
Gary: I don't know. How do you get an elephant into a Safeway bag?
Kid: You take the F from Safe, and the F from Way...
Gary: (thinking the kid's mucked up the joke) Hold on, there's no F in Way.
Kid: I know.
Gary: I don't know. How do you get an elephant into a Safeway bag?
Kid: You take the F from Safe, and the F from Way...
Gary: (thinking the kid's mucked up the joke) Hold on, there's no F in Way.
Kid: I know.
Charlie StrossAbout trans rights:
They're a wedge issue. If you think it's okay to deprive trans people of the right to exist in the public sphere then you're saying human rights are conditional and/or can be withdrawn. Which puts you on a slippery slope to no human rights for anyone.
When you trace the roots of the modern anti-trans movement they boil down to some combination of bigotry and billionaire bullshit— the oligarchs think rights are for the rich.
So: trans-rights are human rights. No exceptions.
Neil BrownNo April Fool jokes from me tomorrow - it is hard enough to distinguish reality from fiction at the moment, and I don't want to make anyone's life any harder than it already is.
