I came across this in a book on symbolism. Some surprisingly familiar looking shapes - perhaps inspiring if you like some extremely subtle symbolism in your music.

Weirdly there does feel like an open, airy quality to a sine wave. Triangles aren't all that firey... But saws? 100%. Squares definitely have a deep earthiness to them.

Maybe I'm talking nonsense though. What do you think?

Has anyone tried this fairly new UK music site?

I don't really want to link it because frankly I'm suspicious of it - foggytunesuk.com, just curious if anyone has used it. It very much looks too good to be true, and they have literally thousands of products so I suspect some kind of scam.

You've seen boob plate, now get ready for...

I cannot fathom how little I want interlocking plates of metal up my arse. Fair play to them, there does seem to be a bit of armour-morphing-into-skin going on on the face, but I think the glute plates are quite clearly there for one reason only.

New EHRC code of practice - what are the practical consequences of using the "wrong" toilet (/service, etc) under the new guidelines?

The new EHRC CoP is effectively a US-style "bathroom ban" for trans people, although given that it is also effectively impossible to inquire about a person's sex without violating their rights in other ways it may be entirely unenforcable.

That said - were it to be enforced in some way, what are the actual consequences for e.g. a trans woman (or indeed a cis man) using the women's toilets? I understand that a service provider granting a trans woman access to the women's would likely constitute direct discrimination of either men (by virtue of not providing what has now become a mixed-sex service to them) or cis women (by not providing them a single-sex service), however I'm not sure I understand what, if any, consequences a trans person would actually face for breaking these guidelines beyond being asked by the service provider to use a different toilet or to leave entirely.

I realise that this is quite new guidance and there may not be a clear answer available here, but I am interested to know what the interpretation of experts is at this stage. And lastly, to be clear, wrt to rule 8, I am not looking for advice on how to get away with this or whether it is worth it to break a rule, merely attempting to understand the scope and impact of the recent changes.
