I am more inspired by statues of dead slave traders underwater than whatever insipid garbage Starmer would dare squeak out through his lips. I feel this week has shown, globally, the time for :decorum:

Here's the question though. If Starmer is some sort of trojan horse designed in a lab to stymie the Labour party. Why did all the labour members vote for him? You're saying a huge chunk of the Labour party is committed to the Labour party failing?

hmmm looks like someone else has noticed that the deadline for the Brexit extension is at the end of the month

https://www.newstatesman.com/politics/staggers/2020/06/what-keir-starmer-brexit-extension

ah yes, Sir Keir "former shadow Brexit secretary" Starmer very wisely avoiding doing anything that would allow his opponents to frame him as a "remoaner" by refusing to say the thing he obviously thinks

After all, what can be smarter than not saying something, if no one was going to listen to you anyway? Isn't that what being a real opposition is all about? I mean sure when it all goes tits up, as we know it will, and you know it will, and we know you know it will, you could point to your comments at the time and say "we would have handled this differently and things would have turned out better", but then people would just say that you're a smarmy metropolitan know-it-all and roll their eyes

whereas, if you don't go on record as saying that the bad thing was bad before it happened then people will think you're just a normal decent bloke who thinks like them and definitely believed the government when it said it had this all under control and now that they've buggered it up you're really more disappointed than angry because you trusted them and they've let you down, they've let the country down and most importantly they've let themselves down

also I keep seeing that Napoleon quote as a justification for starmer refusing to say anything meaningful about anything, it's loving 11 dimensional political capital chess all over again, with a side order of "I'd like to see old bojo wriggle his way out of this jam"

If he doesn't say anything then it won't be the number one item in the front pages or the main news broadcasts. That's all that it takes to be invisible to approximately 67% of the population of the UK. For the 33% (to be absurdly optimistic) who actually read the political news (which probably breaks down sth 2/3 are Labour and the rest Lib Dem / Tory), everyone knows he's a remainer so yeah what's the point. But if he tries to sway the few people who are informed enough to care about this poo poo but don't already vote Labour, he exposes himself to alienating the 67% who Just Don't Care About Politics.

Like, Corbyn didn't lose votes because he didn't take a stand on Brexit, he lost because he was the subject of a wildly successful hatchet job, he hosed up his party management and most of the UK population leans conservative anyway and was repelled by his sincerely held beliefs (especially the good ones).

He could, like, actually try to influence politics, being a politician and all.

Very little chance of success, but there's not going to be a GE between now & crashing out without a deal, so it'd surely be a good idea to actually loving do something now to avoid being ~held to account~ later

Some bluetits nested in a little birdbox we have attached to the wall in the back garden. When they hatched I heard them yelling for food all the time, but I don't hear them anymore and I haven't seen any little babies flying around. I hope they are OK

Meanwhile there are approx. 50,000 starling fledglings that turn up every day and eat all the fat balls and mealworms we put out. They are very loud and honestly they're starting to get on my nerves because they poo poo everywhere and crowd out all the other birds (until the Magpie comes and chases them all away)

The bluetits probably travel a bit from their nestbox after fledging- I don't think they stick around so I wouldn't worry about it. Funnily enough we've had very few starlings here but the shopping center up the road is covered in 'em

In lockdown I learned that a pigeon's "ha hoo hoo hoohoo" is a different call to "ha hooo hoo" that I remember from my childhood because the first is a woodpigeon, and the second rather than being "a woodpigeon with a northern accent" is actually a collared dove.

Well, I never heard of urethral sounding before.

https://www.hindustantimes.com/indi...m1keM5oUYI.html

quote:

Man complained of stomach ache, had a mobile phone charger in his bladder

According to the doctor, the patient has a habit of inserting cables and other stuff through his penis as a form of sexual pleasure. On this occasion, things could have gone out of control and the cable reached his urinary bladder.

A routine operation in an Assam hospital took a different turn this week when the doctor performing the surgery and accompanying attendants found a mobile phone charger cable inside the urinary bladder of a patient.

The patient, a 30-year-old man, had lied to the doctors that he had ingested the nearly two-feet-long cable through his mouth. But it was revealed on the operation table that the cable had been inserted through the man�s penile urethra.

�The patient came to us with severe abdomen pain and told us that he consumed a headphone cable by mistake. We examined his stool and conducted an endoscopy as well but couldn�t find the cable. When we operated him, there was nothing in his gastrointestinal tract,� Dr Walliul Islam, a noted surgeon in Guwahati, said.

Surprised, Islam conducted an X-ray while the patient was on the operation table. It revealed that the cable was in fact in the person�s urinary bladder. The cable was removed and the patient is recovering well.

�He told us that he had consumed headphones through the mouth, but in fact, he had inserted the mobile charger cable through his penis. I have been conducting surgeries for 25 years now but this is the first time such a case happened on the operation table,� said Islam.

According to the doctor, the patient has a habit of inserting cables and other stuff through his penis as a form of sexual pleasure. On this occasion, things could have gone out of control and the cable reached his urinary bladder.

�It�s a type of masturbation called urethral sounding, which is the insertion of an object or liquid into the urethra. The person had come to us five days after he inserted the cable. He repeatedly told us he consumed it through his mouth and we never imagined an adult would lie about such a thing,� Islam said.

�We could have done away with the surgery if he had told us the truth and could have removed the cable through the same route he had inserted it. But surgery had to be done as he lied,� he added.

Islam said the patient doesn�t have any mental disorder and indulged in the act only for sexual pleasure.

�Instances of men indulging in urethral sounding are known. But this person went to an extreme and hence the cable reached his urinary bladder. This is a very rare thing,� he said.

Sorry for more USPOL but I think some people here will get a kick out of this and I didn't see it posted yet:

Gwyneth Palpate posted:

On Sunday night, a cop's brother drove into the Seattle crowd with a firearm loaded with an extended magazine, with another magazine jungle taped to it, and shot a protestor in the arm (or shoulder? non-fatally, anyways.) The shooter then calmly attempted to melt into the crowd, made his way to the police line, and surrendered. The cops didn't even flinch.

On Monday during the day, trucks drove up to the East Precinct building in Seattle to evacuate its contents. A document shredder truck was also spotted.

On Monday night, the protestors seized the area surrounding the precinct. The precinct building itself is considered booby trapped and no one has gone in. Supposedly the building itself is unlocked. This area is the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone.
