Hot Take: We should spend less time engaging with "British food is bad" commentary as if it's a good faith argument, and more time just pointing out that it's just a way to push the racist view that you have to be a pasty gammon colour to be British.

With alt text. I know someone who actually did this
kbarton1001
On my first big overseas client conference, I was at a dinner seated next to a drunk client who kept trying to fondle me under the table. I was young, distressed, and had no idea what to do. I moved my legs as far away from him as I could, moving into the space of the man next to me, who then started patting my legs! The Regional Manager was a French woman who caught my eye, gestured for me to go to the bathroom and when I came back had switched chairs with me. What happed next was epic. A few minutes after I sat back down, she raised her hand with his hand captured in hers and announced loudly "Does anyone know whose hand this is? I found it in my lap." There was dead silence at the table. She threw his hand back at him and said calmly "next time I pick it up with my fork." Then she started a new conversational thread and things moved on. After the meeting she found me, gave me a hug, and said seriously "Never be afraid to make some noise. It is their shame, not yours."

With the conversations happening here today, I'm thinking about how Ellis gets to have a "second chance" without doing any of the work to change or even meaningfully apologise to the scores of women he harmed and manipulated. All he had to do was wait a while.

The RNLI is the closest you will ever get to actual Batman. When rescue is visibly, viscerally, obviously impossible; when the water is a smothering, thundering black wall and the wind is screaming straight from Hell; when you are absolutely going to die: someone’s hand pulls you out and you don’t.

Almost random early 80's N.I. news piece an RUC/Army soldier in riot gear cops a thrown petrol bomb during an evening disturbance near the Falls Rd and fully halts and catches fire. To my subsequent shame I said 'He's being funny falling over like that.' Still chills me to this day.

My problem with this analysis is that it assumes Palantir is a normal megacorp with a standard issue CEO (personally right-wing to one extent or another, but mostly motivated by profit.) It isn’t. Peter Thiel has openly shown us time and again that his politics come first & that they’re bonkers.
