  A typical turkey feeds 12 people? Doubt. Perhaps enough for 12 portions - but that isn’t the same as 12 people get fed off this one bird.

  I often think that while I listento the Robin chirping as I bring him his breakfast. It’s lovely to listen to… but it’s him shouting at the top of his voice: “this area is mine, if you come into this area I will fight you to the death. I’m the boss robin round these parts, and I’ll fuck you up!”

  Whenever you want to know just how bad it would be to drop on your hand some chemical that comes with a concerning number of warning stickers, like hydrazine, there is usually a 1950s paper likely in conjunction with the US Airforce that that can tell you, with receipts.

  I am something of an Eggers Enjoyer, so I look forward to this!

  That is very good

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The rise of Britishcore: 100 experiences that define and unite modern Britons⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Ok. I did say “Britishness as it is today”, I never mentioned the far past.

  To be clear, not that I think the past was good in Britain either, it sucked then too, just differently.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The rise of Britishcore: 100 experiences that define and unite modern Britons⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  In the course of human history the creation of Britain and the concept of Britishness as it is today was a mistake. We shouldn’t have done it folks. It’s bad. This list shows a deeply sick society and culture. You’re right to be alienated, it’s deeply alienating.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The rise of Britishcore: 100 experiences that define and unite modern Britons⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Britain was a mistake.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hundreds of Brits used website to look for ‘suicide partner’⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah. Got to be better. Also rather than banning this website, wouldn’t it be better to look into what is driving people to suicide? I’m guessing a lot of it is social, health and economic conditions that could be addressed by government if they truly cared and weren’t just moralising.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hundreds of Brits used website to look for ‘suicide partner’⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I suspect I’ve got a bad read on this, but I mean… if you’re going to do it, wouldn’t you want someone to do it with too? Companionship in those final moments?

  Maybe ‘The Seventh Continent’ had the wrong impression on me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Stare at it.⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My personal favourite is to break from staring after 30 mins, exclaim, “Hang on, we’re going about this completely back to front!” then spend the next hour deriving from first principles, only to arrive back at the original problem, but now with slightly different notation. At which point I realise that all I’ve done is get myself back to my starting point… Then it’s back to the staring.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Channel 4 responds after calls to sack Rachel Riley for Sydney stabbing post⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think she’s saying that those condemning the Sydney guy are hypocrites, for being the same people who also condemn Israel and in doing so making her feel unsafe in London as an Israel supporter. But it’s hard to say.

  Also it’s not a very consistent position as she seems to be ignoring the reason why people take issue with Israel, I.e. opposing the genocidal violence Israel is committing against the people of Palestine.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Alan Bates considers private prosecutions of Post Office bosses⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, good. He’s right to do so and I support his goal, these bosses should pay for their actions.

  But I suspect he is going to find out which class of people the judiciary works for the hard way.

  “From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me. I craved the strength and certainty of steel. I aspired to the purity of the Blessed Machine.

  Your kind cling to your flesh, as if it will not decay and fail you. One day the crude biomass that you call a temple will wither, and you will beg my kind to save you. But I am already saved, for the Machine is immortal…

  …even in death I serve the Omnissiah.” - some Mexican bird apparently
