This has gone now (looks like they restricted their tweets), did I miss anything exciting e: Rutherfordium is a synthetic chemical element with the symbol Rf and atomic number 104, named after New Zealand physicist Ernest Rutherford. As a synthetic element, it is not found in nature and can only be created in a laboratory. It is radioactive; the most stable known isotope, 267Rf, has a half-life of approximately 1.3 hours.

Jeremy Corbyn would have unleashed the Babadook, the most antisemitic of monsters, onto these British Isles and this caused me to have a heart attack that was completely unrelated to me screaming abuse at my children for singing a white stripes song.

Tarnop posted:Well at least we get to watch you two qualified doctors work this out in real time based on your feelings oh no i'm not a doctor, but i don't think you need to be to remain informed - mostly i'm pulling from this, which is a few years old now I think, yeah 2005ish, which pulls from a period where there was a nontrivial amount of effort made to prove or disprove the implication that psychopaths are either, as depending on the cultural context they are painted, either of high or low intelligence. my impression is that both are incorrect, psychopathy does not have a strong correlation with intelligence at all - and then using that as a springboard to the intellectual discussion, why do we want evaluate it in this way? is it easier to imagine people who lack empathy as being smarter? do we all secretly suspect that people who engage in these antisocial behaviours are cleverer than us, does that imply a longing? or the inverse, is it easier to see them as being less than us, that the absence is a handicap rather than an advantage somehow. i think there are some interesting ideas and implications as to how we see ourselves in how we talk about things like this. are we motivated to draw deeper and more complex difference between ourselves and this psychological other, to feel inferior or superior to them somehow? is it culturally motivated, and to which extent? is our social conception of "psychopath" more or less a construction to describe serial killers like ted bundy where there was a heavy media bias - influenced by sensationalist reporting, perhaps? i can personally cite occasions where ted bundy is used to prove both - either that psychopaths are suave and sophisticated intelligent charmers, or off putting and violent thugs. and even that simplified conclusion is flawed - in the process of typing this thought i came across a separate piece which looks at child psychopathy which supports some, but not all, suggestions that there is a correlation with intelligence, or some kinds of intelligence, or this counterpiece, which from perspective affirms my personal bias - that intelligence and psychopathy have a very poor correlation. if you would like i could provide a biblography with all my great posts but i dunno, effort.

I think Travellers must be the least likely group to convince the Nevercorbyns that the Tories are much more racist. I saw a Traveller activist on Twitter trying to convince a gammon that they were an ethnic group, but the gammon was convinced that people became Travellers when they got a caravan, and stopped being when they didn't.

The seething anger is still available, and politics is always synthesising new reasons to feel enraged, but I handle the compound differently now. I try to decant it on to the page with less casual spillage into the rest of my life. he's portraying it as personal growth but he's really just detaching himself from the world. i don't know about anyone else but i'm certainly doing that. i've given up hope in the near future of UK politics so don't see the point. i'm focussing on other poo poo instead and occasionally looking over like "yep, got worse? makes sense" if you're a commited dumb lib you hated corbyn but even they can't find much hope in kier's labour so they feel a similar detachment my dad is an archetypal guardian lib, though still loyally voted for labour even under corbyn and he's fallen into a deep depression over politics. they lack my assurance i guess, politics is poo poo but i know whats right and know i did what was right and if everyone voted like me the country would be better off. for them there has to be the inkling that they were taken for a ride, if theyr intellectually honest its a possibility that they were part of a movement that helped boris. though i obviously dont think we'd have won 2019 with the guardian and all its readers on side so they didn't throw it themselves you could make an argument for 2017 i guess

peanut- posted:That explanation doesn’t make total sense in the context of the deferred payment discounts now being offered. If retailers pay Klarna for sales why are they explicitly incentivising customers who might otherwise pay up front onto deferred payment schemes? Same reason mail order catalogues used to offer stuff on interest-free payments, and basically all chain furniture stores and home improvement companies still do - they figure that the combined cost of admin (or in this case merchant fees), missed payments and reduced up-front cashflow is offset by the extra sales they'll get from people who either can't afford the up-front costs or at least believe the payment scheme is more affordable. It's been a way of selling pricey stuff to low earners pretty much since the beginning of mass-production (with the degree of outrageous interest rates and knee-breaking collections moving up and down with the tides of regulation), it's only a surprise (and an indicator that a lot of people are in pretty deep financial distress right now) that it's taken the Silicon Valley "Thing that's always been done, but now with algorithms" business model to catch up with it.

Is there a group of people more persecuted than Gypsy/Traveller/Roma in Europe these days? There are, after all, plenty of NIMBY Tory cunts who'll say nice things about immigrants as long as they can maintain the White Purity Enforcement Zone around their village, but even suggest that Travellers get a bad rap, and they start frothing at the mouth about them.

It's very telling that the tories and the libs will roundly mock socialism with jibes about the Soviet Union and make out like it's an idea that's had its time and it's chance and yet Thatcherism is apparently ageless.

CoolCab posted:always been a bit suspicious of this - I enormously doubt psychopathy has a significant impact on intelligence, just predisposition to violence. that would suggest that the correlation is stronger that lower intelligence psychopathy has a higher risk of getting caught. Meaning the distinction is largely that psychopaths can't control their antisocial impulses, whereas sociopaths can generally control them long enough to plan to do them at a later, more convenient time.

All this complaints on twitter about how bad brexit is proving to be so far. Those sharing the benefits of brexit are obviously being silenced by the lizard elite. I demand to know all the benefits of brexit that must have occurred in the last 16 days. Cancel culture is concealing the right for you to know the benefits of brexit. Surely there are some after spaffing £200bn in the last 4 years getting ready for it? Surely? Anyone? Just one benefit, anywhere? Oh, the happy fish. That makes it all worthwhile.
