Oh, I thought it was "minder" as in "reminder" but I married into an Ayrshire family and they have very esoteric sayings there!

The only person to come out of the SPeggie/NHS tribunal vindicated and with a completely untarnished reputation is Dr Beth Upton. Not SPeggie, Not the NHS management, Not Four Women Scotland, Not the media, Just Dr Upton.

Migrants need to prove their worth to live here really sends shivers down my spine, it’s grotesque language

This lot have always existed in one form or another. They used to be against gay marriage, anti drag/camp/femme, or kink at pride but the idea that their deeply bland, conservative approach to being gay is somehow superior remains. They are also never hot.

And they still won't make any profit on it. They lose money on every account even the ones that pay the most so this might make the AI bubble burst sooner

In the UK in 2025 a priest holding a sign saying they support Palestine in the midst of a genocide gets arrested while a thug holding a sign calling for asylum seeks to be killed can stand right in front of the police unbothered

Nice try but the Guardian platformed endless transphobic attacks for years and helped shift the overton window so far to the extreme right that tall women can now be harassed at work and their employers will apologise

So they’ll arrest 474 people for holding signs opposing genocide, but the people trying to burn down immigration centres have legitimate concerns? Is that right? Have I missed something?

Randomly caught the Next Generation episode "Coming of Age" and it's one of those episodes that generates so many questions. Why were there all those actors in the Academy test when holodecks? Did every officer we have ever seen go through this? Even Barclay?

These scenes of public support for Palestinians and the huge numbers are Trans pride in London are so disconnected from what our political and media classes would have you believe. It's actually so dystopian

This Thatcherite nonsense that every public service should be generating profit is why they are all being destroyed one by one. People pay for a service and then that money is used up delivering it. That's not a failure

Oh, in that case apply for the second post as well. I am not in HR but I do work in the NHS and have somehow ended up doing loads of recruitment. They can't make their decision based on you applying for something else

The UK Labour Party really do be like [with apologies to all Hobbits]
"Second Breakfast" meme from LOTR shows the character of Pippin saying "Sure, we've had one Section 28, but what about second Section 28?"

Wes Streeting has no business on anything Pride related. Yes, he has influence and power in the country but he has so far used it against the community and has contributed to the rollback of progress for us all. He should be ashamed, not proud

I'm just baffled that people can post selfies every single day. Do you mean there are people who don't only feel presentable every few months?

The Forsaken really did all turn evil because they were annoyed at Lews Therin #wheeloftime #wot #wotskies
Screenshot from the Simpsons episode Homer's Enemy. Homer is eating the special dietary lunch belonging to Frank Grimes, who looks on angrily. Homer is labelled "Lews Therin" and Grimes is labelled "Most of the Forsaken"

How lucky they are that Israel missed out on winning, they have been saved from the choice between one night of TV or supporting an ongoing genocide

The awful historical irony here is too much. Swiss "neutrality" allowed the Nazis to steal the finances of Jewish Holocaust victims, prevents Jews escaping to Switzerland, and laundered money and gold looted from occupied countries

The part of the population who hold regressive and bigoted views have most of the media and three political parties pandering to them. Meanwhile who is representing those of us who don't hold those views?

I'm struggling with Assassin's Creed Shadows. I don't find Naoe a compelling character at all and the clichéd character bio isn't helping. So far not as good as Ghost of Tsushima or Rise of Ronin and I really wanted to love it #acshadows #assassinscreed

Instead of being reduced in power, looked down on or pitied by former friends and sisters, having to beg to get back into the Blues, Show Siuan remained a true, defiant, powerful Amyrlin, Warrior of the Light and daughter of the river.

#wheeloftimeshowspoilers Now that I have had time to think about it, I think I prefer Siuan's storyline on the show to the books. Book Siuan really only came into her own after being stilled but she was humbled at every turn and I was dreading that happening to Show Siuan
