So many people don't seem to understand that you can use a date to plan a night you think will be fun, not only will you enjoy it but it's a great way of filtering out people you won't vibe with. It doesn't have to be a job interview over drinks and a meal!

This guy is in his 50's btw if you search far enough you can see him post pics of himself, he's just using a much younger person as his pfp, you can put the rest together yourself

You should include their tweets showing pics of themselves, turns out this guy is like 50 and is using a pic of someone much younger for "some reason"

User "satisfaction" has been the tired old excuse for privatising state infrastructure since day dot. They generate a lot of furore about the quality of service delivered, use that to justify privatising it, then once it's privatised they suddenly stop caring about the quality of service.

I know this sounds like one of those annoying "it's the patient's fault!" anecdotes but a workmate had to go to A&E lately and apparently they were sat next to an old guy who was complaining about the quality of free sandwiches that were being given out, lmao

I know political corruption and incompetence are not new, but one of the most annoying features of this hyper-individualised and internet-addled moment is people in positions of power casting themselves as victims for being exposed to the demands they were elected to listen to

No systemic problems to be solved, not even greater penalties for men who commit acts of sexual assault, but a ridiculous pretence that this is an immutable state of affairs that can never be changed. All this just to attack trans women!!

As a cis bloke I'm not at all the priority here, but I feel it's often worth saying how deranged the TERF worldview is for *everyone else* too. Their idea of cis men is that we're all just physically invulnerable rapists-in-waiting, and that this is just *how the world has to be*

Somewhat off topic but playing mixed sex roller derby (an intensely physical contact sport roughly like playing rugby on skates) has really underlined for me how much our social perception of men as being a different category of strength to women is an ideological construct reinforced by separation.

Naive and priveleged of me to only have this realisation *now* but this is not unlike the kind of stories you get in books about how appalling the jim crow south was

I'm wondering how much of this is labour trying to use McSweeney as a sin eater? Deflect labour's unpopular policies to him, oust him, and hope the party's dogshit leadership can keep this horrorshow running?

I know we're kind of used to it at this point, especially from the right, but the amount of just outright hate speech you're allowed to just throw around about muslims in the US is fucking unreal

I assume we're defining "anti-semitism" as "being a Muslim in public" huh

You're the one suggesting Jewish people worldwide's "homeland" is some middle-eastern colony most of them have no real connection to, that seems pretty hitler-esque to me pal

Grindstone Cowboy @daylightplunder.bsky.social · 25/06/2025
It just further raises the question of "why is Jyn the main character?"

Grindstone Cowboy @daylightplunder.bsky.social · 25/06/2025
Andor being good and fleshing out her co-star's character has only driven home how easily you could delete her from the film entirely. Even her relationship to Galen isn't required for the plot to happen. She's like a fanfic character that got inserted into an otherwise finished movie

Personally I believe Jewish people's homelands are the nations they're born and raised in. Very antisemitic of you to suggest otherwise

Even if this was true, if a suspected terrorist walks into a building of 10 other people and you decide to blow up the building including the civilians to achieve your aims, then it's you who's actually the terrorist in that situation

Is this the usual warmongering shit or are they trying to gin up public support for proscribing Palestine action?

What I find so fuckin tiresome is the juxtaposition of ironic, above-it-all affect with a politics that's just solemn, reactionary pearl-clutching. Pick a fucking lane!!

Did you get to the part where they have like, emperor Palpatine come in and basically say they should give as many people cancer as possible for socialism? Lmao. To be fair it does have more poignant/respectful stuff in it later but it never shakes the red scare bullshit

Its worth noting that in Britain, Mamdani would have thrown out of the Labour Party by a small room full LinkIn weirdos and then replaced by a former private healthcare lobbyist who would go on to lose by 5,000 votes to a Reform candidate who was a convinced sex offender.

Look I live in a rotting first-world country myself but I can't imagine wanting to deflect all blame for the world we live in to a tiny cadre of people at the top. I might be a nobody but I still benefit from this rotten state of affairs

God I wish I had the citation on this detail which I only vaguely remember, but apparently a lot of white south africans were dismayed that the end of apartheid didn't break the kind of mass retaliatory violence from black south africans which they had long told themselves was coming
