It's not to late to support (award nominated) journalism! Our print zine is still available for preorder. Each article is prefaced by all new, exclusive "editor's notes" from the team talking about why it was included. 50% of every purchase goes directly to Rascal.

Ah wish I could get out there!
I'm always sad I never kept up my German after GCSEs π
So I've discovered a real urge to have a go at cryptic crosswords. I'm still terrible at them, but can do about half of a Guardian quick cryptic! Has anyone got any good pointers or resources for UK store cryptics?

One of the first and largest Nazi book burnings targeted the world's first gender clinic, destroying its irreplaceable library of over 20,000 books.

Cover of Gore issue 2. Illustrated image of the face of a person with short dark hair who is peering over the edge of a table, their hands clutching the table. Out of their mouth protrudes a giant, glossy spider, legs breaking through their cheeks and eye sockets, pulling the smile into a grin. On the table is carved gore II.

Illustrated imaged of a person with short dark hair sitting in a cozy armchair in front of a gently burning fire. On the mantle are pictures of friends: Pinhead and The Thing. They're reading Gore Zine 2 and look to be gently smiling. Behind them, in the window, is a sicko, fingers on the glass, saying, "YES...HA HA HA...YES!"
Thank you so much for your support on Gore Issue II's first day. We're very proud of our gross and horny turd, and we hope you grow to love it as much as we do. #horrorcommunity #queerhorrorcommunity #fellowsickos

First year as a runner this year, and I've discovered new exciting pains, but had a brilliant time helping out.
Especially enjoyed "Anyone can be an alphabet soup ally" by Linda TorrΓ₯ng and Jess Pomfret, and was super impressed with the non-technical talks!
Anyone had a play with Terrform modules and know a good learning resource on how to set them up?
