- Comment on Mayor Mamdani Wins Record $131.5 Million From DoorDash for Delivery Workers 1 week ago:
He’s embarrassing leaders not just in the USA but around the world. I love it. We just need to capitalise on it while it’s actually happening now and ask our own politicians why these things aren’t happening here.

Agreed. We shouldn’t let them hide behind anyone.

I don’t think a grown adult can be absolved of responsibility because of that either, though. Everybody who speaks up takes on risk and losses. He’s better positioned than most people on the planet.
- Comment on ‘A maelstrom of his own making’: how Ed Sheeran’s tour turned into a full-blown culture war 1 week ago:
Yeah, hiding behind a job is nonsense. Imagine me saying “sorry man, I don’t talk about big issues because I drive a forklift Monday to Friday”.

As Jupiderbaal pointed out on TikTok, Sheeran wanted the credit for the anti-genocide stance without taking any risk.
- Comment on He's right, you know 1 week ago:
We’re friends, though. We’re honest with each other. I want to know his perspective even when we diverge.
So if I love pizza and he hates it, I don’t want my friend to tell me with a coat hanger smile that he likes pizza too. I want to know how much he hates it with all the adjectives he can muster.
- Comment on He's right, you know 1 week ago:
Yes, but it’s very white and Anglo so it doesn’t feel like a “worldwide” web.
- Comment on He's right, you know 1 week ago:
I mentioned a meme I saw to a friend of mine and it turns out he doesn’t have social media at all. He just said “The mediocrity of it…” and we went back to talking about other stuff again.
He had a point.
- Comment on Parents in England and Wales could be fined or jailed for child’s crimes, minister says 1 week ago:
Nikki Rutter, an assistant professor in the department of sociology at Durham University, who specialises in child behaviour, told the BBC in July: “We have a huge amount of evidence that parenting orders aren’t effective. It’s why we’re seeing the decrease in them. The police know these are not effective measures.”
So this is about appearing to do something while doing nothing of essence and throwing poor families under the bus. Sounds very on form for this government/electorate.

The American Psychological Association (APA) Dictionary of Psychology defines gaslight as:
to manipulate another person into doubting their perceptions, experiences, or understanding of events.

Gaslighting behaviour: reframing, deflection, minimisation.

What kind of British community allows content from KGB News? Weird.

Neurodivergent people: where can I buy this?

They all look like her?
- Comment on The BBC Is Just Nodding Along 3 weeks ago:
The BBC is so compromised and corrupt that it has willingly ruined its reputation over things like this. Not to mention their misreporting of the genocide in Palestine. Their coverage is even more biased than Israel’s own reporting on what is happening in Palestine.
Whatever the agenda is, they seem happy to burn the BBC in service of that agenda.
- Comment on I GOT THE MOVES LIKE JAGGER 3 weeks ago:
As a reformed public guitar player myself, good on that man for speaking up. It’s the first step in getting help for many of us.

My door handle is probably antiemetic if we go by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition of antisemitism.

If you need to revise I have a recording of it here. Image
- Comment on BBC cancels interview with NGO reporter after finding out he will debunk their pro-Israel propaganda 5 weeks ago:
That is absolutely damning.
- Comment on [Opinion] Media billionaires are getting away with murder 1 month ago:
I hope you’re not suggesting there should not be accountability for abusing someone to the point of suicide. This man faced smears and disproportionate consequences because of his colour.

“… and it continues in Palestine”.

- Comment on In Open Carry states, is it also allowed to openly carry bladed weapons like Swords? Bow and arrow? 1 month ago:
Is also wonder about a guillotine on little wheels.
- Comment on Don't Call Me. Ever. 1 month ago:
We never knew who might be calling. Now the phones tell you who is calling before you answer and still some people are freaked out. I don’t get it, but I think I’m becoming that way myself.

I only know Seven Eleven. Had no idea they had competitors.
