I do think Starmer thinking things were basically fine before does explain a lot tbh
Keir Starmer - "I’ve always wanted a Labour government but I’ve never worried about the future of our country under a Tory government."
The words of a man so insulated from the harm done by the Tories he felt no compulsion not to continue the harm not being done to him and his.

Making Christmas wish lists was a lot easier when physical media for films weren’t all out of print. 😢

I once did a deeply puerile thing and rang the Home Office to ask for comment on the growing campaign to abolish the Home Office, which was basically "one think tank paper and some posts". The note of genuine panic in the flack's voice is something I cherish to this day. See how you fucking like it.

I am slowly compromising over the years, but I’ve managed to successfully ban Alexa from the house at least. Reading Yanis Varoufakis’ Technofeudalism and the way he apparently spends all day talking to it, feeding it more data, and then complaining about it, I feel that was the right decision
I feel like Commander Adama warning people he won't have a network on the Galactica when I tell my family that under no circumstances will I allow a smart device into my house. No internet connected doorbells, washing machines, air fryers, lightbulbs. None. Not during my watch.

The most realistic scene in DS9 is when Gul Dukat whined about how the Bajorans never erected a statue in his honor. A prophetic text.

Hey, remember when former prime ministers used to not publicly criticise current PMs, rather than plot to replace them with someone more pliant towards the policy preferences of the billionaire tech bro whose money bankrolls their think tank? www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

This is a really interesting set of survey results because, on the one hand, GPs are saying that mental health is overdiagnosed while, on the other, they are lamenting the lack of mental health support. Your patients are either faking it or they aren’t, doctor.

If you wanted to run say, four different games that weren't Dungeons & Dragons in hopes of showing people the breadth of the TTRPG hobby, what games would you run for them? Assume that they are sort of familiar with 5E.

“You see the transgenders were simply fooled into thinking they had a place in our society they should simply have realised they are an unwanted underclass and stayed in the closet those poor fools”
Kishwer Falkner in The Times talking about the rights of "biological people". As compared to trans people, who are, of course, non-biological.

We’ve gone from TERFs scolding us for using phrases like “pregnant people” to trying to make “biological people” happen. The reaction against clearer meanings has been to insist on gibberish in the name of “scientific accuracy”.
