Angepain posted:Also love the "a number of people have drawn my attention to", joan's status solidifying as official person to alert about anyone thinking about sexuality or gender at all I like to think about the ladies and when I do I get horned up sometimes there are multiple ladies and sometimes they're in the nuddy but sometimes they're not and also there is jam. Is this information I should pass on to Joan?

I believe contacting her office for approval is the temporary stopgap measure before she sets up a proper government department to decide what gender and sex thoughts people are allowed to have

Rarity posted:Is this going to be the real Lord Buckethead or the one that got co-opted by the libs? Wait, is this some joke about lib dems or did Lord Buckethead recently have some sort of mild coup I never knew about? Or maybe he was always bad and I just didn't know, I just enjoyed the imagery at the election of May standing next to Elmo, Lord Buckethead, and the guy from the MRLP

I remember listening to that and also the follow up much later on the author basically admitting that she buys kitchen appliances she'll never use to fill the empty hole inside her and if there is a better example of the modern political journalist than pushing out articles that demand more burning paupers so you can afford poo poo you don't want or need just to briefly feel something then I don't know it.

Sanford posted:The most successful messaging I've found so far is "if not for Tory austerity, about 200,000 people would be alive who are now dead. That's 1000's of empty spots on the sofa, 1000's of people starting to make two cups of tea before realising their mistake, 1000's of people rolling over in bed and reaching out for someone who isn't there, 1000's of families missing someone this Christmas who should still be with them. And this is when the tories were on form, never mind the chaos of recent months." The most negative response I've had so far is "I need to think about this" from someone who told me in 2017 he couldn't see himself ever voting not tory, never mind voting labour. It's a powerful message. i like this argument has entered the public discourse because it's easily and rightfully extended to 'and every ~thousand pounds you spent on yourself rather than third-world antimalarials has killed someone. what's your personal body count?' i mean this entirely unironically. it's a great, compelling argument and it deserves to be taken to its conclusion. if you think austerity has killed hundreds of thousands, that has serious consequences for your own spending too coffeetable fucked around with this message at 11:30 on Oct 31, 2019 |

and actually the 200k figure isn't really life-equivalents, it's people-who'd-be-alive-as-of-2017. that's about six? DALYs, so the third world equiv is ~£100 per person you've killed on the same scale

I read the whole thing and not once does he explain how deregulation would help; it's just braying about how all the regulations regarding disabled access didn't save anyone in the event of a fire. It's genuinely on par with the Megan McGriddle we should burn a few apartment buildings to encourage the others take.

coffeetable posted:If you open Chrome Developer Tools when you stick your postcode into getvoting.org, you'll see a request for a file containing the recommendations. That's this file here, and it's keyed by constituency code. Meanwhile the Excel file here has the 2017 results, again keyed by constituency code. My script grabs both files, cleans them up, then nails them together to see which party's constituencies have which recommendations. Showed this table to a LibDem cheerleader this morning and it turns out they've since updated their recommendations. Did the same collation and compare and got this breakdown (sorry for the utterly hideous Excel snip): I don't think my methodology is quite as robust as coffeetable's so I'd love to see an updated one from them, and similar tables for all of the other tactical voting sites. Seems a good sense check for general recommendations. The raw data shows they're encouraging people to vote for Phillip Hammond and Anna Soubry too which is just painful.

Do you get off on telling a thread full of mentally ill people, many of whom are unemployed and (if they haven't been discouraged or sanctioned) claiming benefits, that spending any of their meager income on making life less miserable makes them just as bad as the people running one of the richest states on the planet? I ask because that's basically the only poo poo you post, and I personally think it's irresponsible.

Ghost Leviathan posted:From what I gather there's a bit of a... thing with that especially since how Sikh naming conventions originated specifically as a protest against the Hindu caste system. That's just a guess, mind. It's worth noting that UK law considers incitement against Jews and Sikhs to be racism, whereas incitement against Catholics, Quakers, Muslims, Hindus, etc. wasn't specifically proscribed until religious hate crime laws came in. (It's also worth noting that despite this, the Board of Deputies opposes having a 'Jewish' option in the ethnicity section of the census, preferring to keep it as religion, whereas the Sikh Federation wants 'Sikh' as an option.)
