Since I've been seeing a lot of tweets repeating claims about why the male contraceptive pill didn't make it out of trials, here's a blog post from a few years ago:

Stupid racists are sharing a video in which a mixed group of teenagers attack a white girl or young woman in a clothes shop and claim it's "feral black youth". In truth they are a mixed group (and FWIW, the shop is Uniqlo, not Zara).
Racism is stupid. Racists are stupid.
I also had a delivery at Canary Wharf; when I got there, it was being evacuated.
The other was Dunblane. I was in the graphics room at my university in Aberystwyth and someone came in with the news that "this maniac" had killed lots of kids at a school.
There are three events I can vividly remember learning about. One was the death of Princess Diana; I was in bed, and read about it on Teletext the morning after.
One was 9/11; I was making a delivery to an Islamic publisher in east London.
As today's the third anniversary of the Dunblane massacre, here's a post I wrote a few years ago in response to a gun enthusiast on a forum (that wasn't about guns):

Dunblane remains Britain's only, to date, mass shooting at a school.
Enjoy them while you can -- in a couple of years they might have been destroyed or 'Israeled'.
You can buy them from Arab or other ethnic food shops. Traidcraft sell Zaytun but last time I bought from them, they did not dispatch for several days.
