lol I believe they blocked me for asking them to explain which was apparently too much

This is the kind of weird comradely energy I think I’m good for so you are welcome, genuinely. I shitpost and act stupid on here because it’s a way for me to just put down the horrors for a while but I am being sincere beneath the awkwardness!

I think people should speak openly about why China is not allowed to manufacture this but other people can and see if they can do it without being weirdly racist. I appreciate Europeans find this next to impossible but still.

No one “allowed” them to do this, it’s a private company. Europe not being able to compete and throwing a tantrum just says more about the weakness of the Continent

bsky.app/profile/adam... Delighted that Astrid, Adam and Degen (being cornered by his greatest enemy: me) all feature in Mothership's MEGADAMAGE 2. As does Brian Evenson! God willing I'll be contributing some of that much, much more as well. www.backerkit.com/c/projects/t...

Yes, different trusts use different systems. The hospital I worked at had no way of talking to specialists at a hospital at the other end of the county outside of sending letters attached to emails as they insisted it was done that way

This has gone down *badly* with some in govt, amid push to reform the ECHR from the inside.
Shabana Mahmood especially is said to take a
"dim view" of arguments made and her allies say issue of trans rights after the Supreme Court's judgement is "beyond reproach".
Govt source says "it doesn't help sustain public confidence in the European Convention when the Council is seen to intervene in domestic politics and national security".

The government's treatment of trans people in the
UK could breach the European Convention on Human Rights, Europe's human right...

tbf, I do remember some people on Twitter saying we should do this and basically close borders for all non-essential travel for maybe a month to really build a quarantine system in place and they got shouted down as racist fascists who wanted people to not go on holiday which lol ok.
