So my very specific dopamine rush is buying the same clothes Eleanor Shellstrop from The Good Place wears (new master thread of photos as and when I find the clothes in my wardrobe again)
there’s an Eleanor item I’ve identified but the seller is away until NYE, it won’t let me purchase until they’re back, and it’s already in two other baskets

all day yesterday, i had people going out of their way to avoid commenting on these rule changes, instead yelling things like "but what about farage and the dublin agreement, eh? eh?" on a fundamental level, people are not interested in here-and-now harms if their team is responsible for it
“The proposes changes represent the biggest overhaul of the immigration system since the Immigration Act 1971. Almost all of the changes will make life worse not just for immigrants but also the British citizens who love them, the universities that teach them and the businesses that employ them.”

Impressively, not only did the tribunal find that she had harassed her coworker, but also that she was untruthful on the stand, her lawyer asked bizarre questions and her star witness was not answering questions candidly. Quite a lot of texture in that ruling, quite a lot of very smooth reporting...
Also worth noting, the Tribunal found that Sandie Peggie had harassed Dr Beth Upton in a "hate incident".

Apparently this is the wrong answer, so Wes Streeting is launching another review by a team picked to deliver a more convenient answer 🙄
Whichever review gives the answer they want will be hailed as "gold standard science", the other will be ignored.

An independent taskforce *just* did a huge review of ADHD in England, and the conclusion was that it's "under-recognised, under-diagnosed and under-treated."

![R. H. Bing (October 20, 1914 – April 28, 1986)[1] was an American mathematician who worked mainly in the areas of geometric topology and continuum theory.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:cyyd366g3hrxp5rynixm2mm3/bafkreid62wy3dekb2kzbisjfdlimlb35j4rlgew5iof7vi32byfszmg26a@jpeg)
![Bing's father was named Rupert Henry, but Bing's mother thought that "Rupert Henry" was too British for Texas. Thus she compromised by abbreviating it to R. H.[5] Consequently, R. H. does not stand for a first or middle name.
When Bing was applying for a visa, he was requested not to use initials. He explained that his name was really "R-only H-only Bing", and ended up receiving a visa made out to "Ronly Honly Bing".](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:cyyd366g3hrxp5rynixm2mm3/bafkreigmfj53q4uy33spga2bxdkllqm3ag5sffovg5g7ddmu3vqzkb6k24@jpeg)

Wow if only there was some sort of fairly recent historical precedent warning us about the dangers of slicing up and reselling debt across the financial landscape.
WSJ: “.. If the AI market blows up, the blast radius would be wide, hitting not only Wall Street firms, but also pensions, mutual and exchange-traded funds and individual investors, because of how debt is often sliced and resold across the financial landscape.”

Finally we know, after Brat Summer comes John Cale Winter
John Cale has made a record with someone who wasn't even born when he made Songs For Drella, which for most artists would count as a late-career recording, but for him... long may he roll, is what I'm saying.

pre-writing a devastating obituary for your enemy is god-tier hating of a kind you don’t often see anymore. renaissance haterism. beautiful stuff.
A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.
Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."
Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.
