why not both? Netanyahu surely the big winner from this; he’s wanted to degrade the regime that calls for the destruction of his entire nation since forever. state existentialism is worth some oil price fluctuation. but the US is not fighting over state existentialism, for itself at least.

elite coding is already defined by organisational social skills and performant, flexible and maintainable architecture. ‘writing code’ is now the bare minimum.

must have been a clerical error

you missed one important detail: fuck over people who carried water for you

rather oddly the South Park episode where Cartman decides to imitate Tourette somehow gets it more right than wrong; he ends up in deep anxiety over being unable to control his tics, which is pretty accurate

so we’re all in favour of inclusion of Tourette, except if it’s offensive, in which case you should be muzzled like do you not see how this is a completely contradictory position couched in ‘inclusive’ language 🔗 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

my takeaway from G & D is that journalists are Not A Fan of MG

100% this. electorally successful in the short run, but it resulted in generational pork barrelling.

the reaction from plenty over the Bafta event proceedings is exactly why a film depicting Tourette *as it actually is* needed to be made.

what does it mean that my current main tic is 𝘱𝘪𝘨𝘨𝘺

The quiet rumblings over a working lifetime of 9% extra marginal tax rates… and the tsunami of rage from pensioners that reversed a £200 universal benefit cut (winter fuel allowance.) Pensioners still run the show.

i bought some white ankle socks for the gym that are ever so slightly too high up the ankle and now I feel like a kitty when lifting Very Heavy Things

Just find it all rather sad. Not particularly enthralled by whatever politics he has, but I saw (and still see) Starmer as a serious man trying to do good. A COO that accidentally became the CEO.

yeah his foreign policy is bonkers, but have you heard about his economics? bro believes in MMT (Modern Mammatory Theory), thinks you can just believe your way to free growth

In this game, the perfect theory (even if actually correct) always has an alternative explanation. What if - it wasn’t Stephen who heard the perfect murder target in that isolated room. What if it was just a random pick by another player, but it fits the theory?

The Traitors surfaces unsettling truths: You can tell someone a profound & heavy truth, at a real cost to yourself, and they’ll be utterly convinced you’re lying. And someone can tell you a disturbing, reality-distorting lie, and you won’t know any better. In fact, you’ll believe them completely.
