Or, indeed, a look at our prison system, where we lock people up but can't keep them safe.

No, but more evidence is helpful for those who don't want to see it.

They're apparently referred to as "unarmed" when not carrying ammunition, which is the claim.

I mean, it was either the US or Israel. There's not really any other candidates.

I honestly don't know which of these options is true, but either should be disqualifying.

Every few months, my facebook has a "does anyone have access to [x paper]?" from someone nerding about something, and it will generally be successful.

Yeah, this is relevant to my interests.

And on insider trading

LLMs will absolutely feed and validate narcissists, along with paranoia and delusions. They are basically validation machines.

Loud religion can certainly make me wary, but there's a lot more to it than "religion bad, atheism good"

Also that woman’s outfit is from about 1890

Yes, it is.

If Labour wanted us to support them, they shouldn’t have treated us like shit.

"School", ici, c'est plutôt l'université, et apparemment il manque complètement de curiosité intellectuel. Il veut juste un diplôme pour accéder à des boulots.

Why are you making up random shit that still doesn't justify him being beaten or abandoned?

He didn't pay to go to the BAFTAs, he was a nominee. And you said that Tourette's in general is fake.

So you're recommending a book about how badly the mentally ill have been treated, while also claiming that an entire mental illness has been made up by its sufferers? The fuck is wrong with you?

25.02.2026 20:42 πŸ‘ 0 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 1 πŸ“Œ 0

The mind is a thing that the brain does, and thus can be affected by a variety of illnesses. We also have plenty of evidence of mental illnesses going back well before the 19th century.

But cancer is a real illness that a lot of people genuinely have, and if you respond to someone's cancer diagnosis by assuming they're faking, you're being a dick.

Winter's Orbit, by Everina Maxwell.

But it won't, because it's Trump giving it.

My working theory is that he's a shitbag. Somewhat lacking in nuance, I realise, but it does fit many of his (in)actions.

Birding with Benefits, by Sarah T Dubb. It was really sweet!

Possibly not very

Nah, that's Mari Lwyd. This is a god of the dead.

For the same number of stitches, it'll be a little narrower and noticeably longer. I'd assume the same number of stitches use about the same amount of yarn, but it's possible they don't.

It's not fake. People who have it deal with a lot of shit, and have zero incentive to make it up.

The guy's been a Tourette's campaigner for 40 years, he definitely has it. Doesn't negate the harm caused.

Sure did! Which seems like a particularly shit thing for it to do.

On the night the host apologised "if you were offended", but no one from BAFTA spoke to Jordan and Lindo.
