Plays into my theory that gammons think international diplomacy is comparable to being a bullying middle manager, and that you can shout and stamp and threaten to get your way.

Also that Alexander de Pfeffel is exactly that kind of pathetic middle management bully, elevated way above his ability by his family's wealth.

Sun reader version of this is thinking that the EU negotiations are like a fight in a pub car park. They have no concept of co operation.

I can't get back to sleep, my wife had a nightmare.

lol bellingcat writing a criticism of a peer reviewed article that hasn't even been published

https://twitter.com/SGSJournal/status/1172974238334107648

It was published by the Tulsi Gabbard campaign in August and by Accuracy.org after the author sent it to the website and multiple other people in May, where he stated:

quote:

This manuscript has been accepted for publication by Science and Global Security, a refereed science-
based journal published out of Princeton University. The paper has seven authors all of whom are
established scientists plus it has been refereed under the supervision of the editors of the Journal.
So if SGS doesn't want people writing about it they should ask the author not to send it to as many people as possible before the journal publishes it. Unless Postol has totally rewritten the paper he's been working on since 2017 and changed the core concept entirely, it's the same as the SGS version. Here's our actual article:

I don’t know what the paper’s about, but “peer reviewers fixed some of our fuckups” is a really really poo poo excuse. If you don’t check your papers carefully before sending them to journals, then you’re a fraud of an academic and your published papers are full of errors (because only maybe half of peer reviewers take their jobs seriously and even then ones that will generally understand your work less well than you do).

When I was little and nobody had explained it to my apparently very delicate ears, I was instead told by my grandma that it was indeed a rib, which is why now all men have one fewer rib than women. Very specifically not a pair, one single rib, leaving men with 12 on the right side and 11 on the left. e; to clarify in order to avoid slandering my dear, late Granny Sadie, the grandma in question was on the other side, Lembit's mother.

Feeling my own ribcage did not seem to bear this out, though in retrospect, maybe it was evidence of my transness.

One of my ribs is all hosed up and bent under the one above it, what theological excuse does this give me?

It may have something to do with the author of the report being on the editorial board of SGS Journal. The paper uses computer modelling of a 122mm warhead impact and states it's identical to the crater at Khan Sheikhoun, proving it was a rocket impact, not a bomb impact as the OPCW-UN JIM stated. Problem is, the simulation doesn't look like a 122mm rocket impact, and the simulation doesn't even actually match the crater at Khan Sheikhoun.

Broke:  It is, however, foolish to try to sell the concept of the E.E.C., and not admit that this means giving up some sovereignty. Of course it does, and I believe it rightly does. I believe this is one of the central appeals of it.

Woke: I think they are building an empire and want us to be part of that empire, and I don't want that.

Totally Bespoke: Actually empires are good again.

Like, even without the empires stuff I think it's right to say "The world is turning into blocks, and the UK needs to pick one to join and share sovereignty with. The EU will give us a fairer deal than the US will and aligns with us better." Not a very convincing argument to the public though.

I don't get the block on criticising her appearance, we do it for literally every male politician on here, for example Rory 'horse in a oval office suit' Stewart and Mike 'everything about him' Gapes.

I mean it seems kind of sexist and projecting fragility to pretend that female appearances are untouchable. Like if it was just her appearance we were criticising fair enough, but we've had more than a fair amount about why her politics are poo poo as well.

women are judged on their appearance far, far, far more often and more harshly than men are

like to the extent of not getting certain jobs/promotions because they're not conventionally attractive enough

criticising her policies is good but too often the first thing people go to is making a jab at her appearance

it might be recall bias but ive felt for a while that women in politics get a harder time from this thread than men. certainly over appearance, but more generally too

case in point, your comparators for criticising swinson's appearance are stewart and gapes who are objectively way worse than she is
