weird to admit you're dumb with a b while also telling an easily disproved lie but then here we are

Month before fawkes night and someone's having a bonfire, that particular smell of burning treated wood, and I'm remembering it's one of the strongest PTSD triggers I still have. Gonna be a long month. Someone take these flashbacks and burn them, pls.

They stopped making ghosts just after the civil war. You’ll never see a ghost with a man bun or hitting a juul

I'm not an expert on this topic, but neither is Jacobsen and I wouldn't trust her on anything.

Russell T. Davies, you have become a really vile piece of shit www.theguardian.com/media/2026/o...

own interest lies in the nuances. His most
recent drama, Tip Toe, about a simmering
feud between neighbours on opposite ends
of the political divide that boils into a horrifc
act of violence, upset some viewers by
including a gender-critical character.
Stephanie. What inspired her? "I think it's
important to hear all voices. Years and Years
and It's a Sin both had lead gay characters
who were Tory voters - if you watch most
dramas you'd think those people don't exist.
I know people who are gender critical. The
whole argument is so polarised that to some
people the fact that she's gender critical
means she might as well be a murderer.
which is just nonsense. There are people

with genuine concerns, and they need to be
discussed. Where is the debate?'

Hey, I’m just asking questions. Ignorant questions, bigoted questions, questions that have been repeatedly answered for many years. Sorry, but I’m not listening to answers right now; I’m far too busy asking questions. It’s called being intellectually curious.

No matter what happens, we will stay fully onside with America and we’ll remain highly belligerent towards Iran. But a bit of the old Clear And Present Danger would be very helpful in helping to sell the more maximal level of cooperation, rather than the minimal one we have to play down.

If you ever wondered why visible light is those particular wavelengths, it's because life evolved to see in the narrow range where water is transparent

My current hypothesis is that personal agents are going to underwhelm in the US and Europe primarily for this reason, but absolutely crush in China, where everything already lives in WeChat.

FIRSTLY as the piece alludes: Loren Rex Cameron’s also-trans and arguably more famous older sister, Cameron, was a I believe fully stealth working model and actress (a la plot of Pose) in the 80s and 90s mostly … I rewatched like I dunno, dozens of TNG episodes, where she appeared as Ensign Kellogg:
