I often say the rise in students coming to our dept with diagnoses of various kinds of neurodivergence has been matched with a corresponding fall of students coming with generalised depression. Because, you know. They're getting a diagnosis of the actual problem rather than feeling they don't fit.

Wow, I can't believe Labour's tactic of yelling "DON'T VOTE FOR THESE GREEN CUNTS, THEY'RE DANGEROUS, VOTE FOR US, WE HATE IMMIGRANTS IN A BETTER WAY THAN REFORM!" hasn't led to them keeping all their council seats.

I refuse to accept the labelling of science as ‘left-wing’. Not only because I think this is largely aimed at discrediting facts as opinions, but also -for any insider- it’s so untrue. The echelons of science are too traditional, hierarchical & club-based to qualify for any sort of progressive left.

Stop pretending Jews are a monolithic group, and that people who object to *genocide* are racist. I've been on marches with my wife, participating in chants, marching with the sizeable Jewish bloc because my wife is Jewish.

Britain is like this because our national politics is a shrivelled husk of democracy: a country where the world’s most poisonous media outlets fill a great gaping void empty of actual politics with relentless fear, incitement and hatred.
