‘Letter from a Birmingham jail’ as true today as it was then. What’s the saying about not learning from history, and repeating it?
Someone didn’t learn about how poisons concentrate up the food chain. Biomagnification, if you care to learn.
I learned about it, at school, from a video having people dressed up as rabbits grabbing lettuces of sticks (some injected with blue poison) and someone dressed up as a fox clubbing the rabbit people. Also, due to that video, the sound of the narrator saying ‘Arctic char’ will live rent free in my head.


Gosh, I hope not. But, I acknowledge we might disagree on that
I guess the problem is that the anti-Reform vote is split among multiple parties.
There is a solution to that. After IDs we can acknowledge no referendum is required for election changes. Then push through Proportional Representation. Helps that labour have been elected on that premise before. PR naturally positions the center as the most powerful entity too, even in extreme times such as these.


I was mostly questioning the selection. Why Labour and Tories?
At risk of repeating myself:
Greens beat labour in polls, it’s not polls you were going by, else you wouldn’t have mentioned Labour. Lib Dems beat Tories in this election, so it’s not election results, else you wouldn’t have mentioned Tories. 2 was a fine number, just strange picks.
For what it’s worth, I think Reform are winning the election too.


Strange you only mention Farage and Badenoch as alternatives, why is that? Greens Poll better than Labour so it can’t be polls. Lib Dems won more councillors than Tories, so it can’t be election results…


I don’t think it failed, because I don’t think it’s really started. They (the press) have mostly just been manufacturing consent to vote for Reform.
Now Greens are proving to be a credible threat to the wealthy elite the smears will start.


Boots Ireland report record revenues of €580.76m 10/06/25.
How they’re doing it 19/02/24 sorry for the Telegraph… They continued to mess with pensions.
Good for him.


Only thing that could save Kier’s legacy is pushing through Proportional representation and then fucking off to whatever golden parachute advisory role he has set up.
Is steak vegan? I think we’ve strayed away from the premise of the hypothetical.
Charlotte Sartre?
Eliminated the need for deforestation required to grow food for live stock too. Win, win win.


My apologies.
Did you say the media in this country is racist. That the media in this country supports racism?
You’re right, I misunderstood. I’ll be on my way.
It just sounded like you were implying that the press wasn’t giving racists a free pass. Which we know can’t be true because, gestures at picture, they are themselves racist.


Meanwhile the media:

Strange you brought up daily Press’ opposition to racism.


They hate you coz they ain’t you. Keep posting.


A long way of saying:
Man criticises someone for kicking a guy in the head while he’s on the ground and restrained. I don’t like this.


We play +2s, Reverse, and +4 wilds can be stacked. A +4 being played needs a colour declaration, and a +2/reverse of that colour can continue the stack.
Usually this means +4 will kill the pile and the unfortunate sod is picking up 6, or 8, or whatever… But sometimes, they magically have the correct Reverse, or +2 and escape with their life.
An alternative side rule we play is chains. I play a green 3, I can immediately play a green 4, then a red 4… Until I can no longer play matching number, or consecutive colour, or effect card.
Mostly because we used to play a card game we called Blackjack, that is basically Uno, but with chaining. Aces were wild, 2s were pick up 2, 8s were miss a go, Jacks of spades/clubs were pick up 7, Jacks of hearts/diamonds did something else.


I have audiobooks on a 30min sleep timer, shake to reset timer, and a 30 min rewind when my sleep timer expires.
I either get sleep, or progress through the story. Win-win.
I make some nods to sleep hygiene: my phone goes black and white before bed. Some problem apps are soft locked. But I’m not great at the practice. Regardless, my sleep problems are chronic pain related, so sometimes I just have to rest and wait/hope for exhaustion to take me.


I think that’s an acceptable price of being on the open and free internet.
Everything I do is in the open, and you are free to do as you wish with it. Likewise, everything you do is in the open and you accept, by being here, that I am free to do what I wish with it.
Defederation is likely what you’re looking for, find an instance that defederates GenAI friendly instances.


Hey Porter - Johnny Cash
Like the 309 - Johnny cash
One of his first, and one of his last songs are about trains.
Nameless king. I finally caved and accepted I would have to summon to beat him… Ah fuck.
The only soulsborne I didn’t beat, but I didn’t play after getting hard stuck on him. I did beat everyone solo though, which is why it was such a decision to think about summoning.
