For bin liners whatever top is on it is way less important than how thick they are. No use having your perfect tie top or whatever if a giant gaping hole appears in the side when you look at it wrong.

Costco heavy duty binliners are ace. Also what an utter shower of cunts at those lord of siberia parties. Really telling how utterly performative any activism is in the tv space and its just liberal wankers taking oligarch money all the way down while making a sad face to camera.

Not if you operate under the model where he just has things he instinctively likes and dislikes and conjures up rationales after the fact in order to reinforce those assumptions. He doesn't like elements of the far right because they seem crass to him or because they occasionally target things he likes, therefore he looks for supporting evidence to rationalize his dislike of them (which is not hard to find) and this is very enjoyable because it validates his existing beliefs, but will find himself fundamentally incapable of forming a new worldview out of those pieces of information because that would necessitate engaging with the possibility that he is, or has been, wrong. And as having the book he wrote called "how not to be wrong" as his DP might suggest, he really does not want to do that because that would make him feel uncomfortable instead of being enjoyable. Facts are like mountains, people live near them and know they exist but rarely interact with them personally and mostly use them to orient themselves in environments of their own construction.

Bet you a fiver the best he can come out with is "russian spies personally put them in place and we just need to find the russian spy what did it and everything will be fine again" and never comes within a million miles of a systemic critique like "the structure of our society and politics is greatly advantaged by the stoking of wildly xenophobic rhetoric by all parties in power while simultaneously, the sustaining and widening of wealth inequality is something the media class as a whole is on the advantageous side of, thus the media is inclined to support that political position above all else and thus tends to support variations of low tax, low public service, low trust and individualistic (xenophobic) politics which serve to weaken labour power, and I bought into this wholesale when faced with a left wing alternative and continue to do so with the characterisation of failures of domestic british society as machinations of the foreign other, to the exclusion of all other explanations"

I wonder if these parties are actually enjoyable. Is anyone there actually having a good time or are they just gritting their teeth while trying to make sure as many influential people remember their names. I guess they probably have oodles of cash to spend on drugs and circus animals or whatever the gently caress but a shite crowd's still a shite crowd at the end of the day, surely e: i am in the drawstring camp. Let me know when the time comes and I'll get to the wall

I mean obviously I doubt anybody ITT would like it but I can only assume there is a big slice of media/politics weirdos who absolutely love it because their lifelong quest is seemingly to try to make the entire world as unspeakably boring as they are.

keep punching joe posted:yeah but its a poo poo newspaper that nobody reads. He still owns the Standard, which is pretty much read entirely by Westminster bubble inhabitants at this point. In particular the briefcase class at Labour HQ are *terrified* of it because they believe it is to the London mayoral race what the Sun was to general elections in the 70s and 80s.

It's clearly inspired by the book of the same namequote:On the Beach is a post-apocalyptic novel published in 1957, written by British author Nevil Shute after he emigrated to Australia. The novel details the experiences of a mixed group of people in Melbourne as they await the arrival of deadly radiation spreading towards them from the Northern Hemisphere, following a nuclear war the previous year. As the radiation approaches, each person deals with impending death differently.

Whenever I remember this woman runs an actual school I get earnestly sad thinking about the poor kids who have to endure it. I remember when I was 14/15 I was being pretty badly bullied and being able to just completely lose myself in videogame escapism every night was such a relief for me. It's baffling to me that we still have plenty of people in this country who have such a reactionary, completely baseless assumption that they're somehow inherently bad for kids. The mental health of pupils at that school must be in loving tatters.

She's a typical liberal who only gives a gently caress about anything that directly impacts her. Leaving the EU? Raaaaargh mad. Folk being sanctioned by the DWP & literally starving to death, not figuratively but literally dying because the state found some minor fault and punished them for it? Not my beat. It's loving bollocks, she's got a personal Twitter account, she's able to comment on poo poo outside her "beat" (never mind that The Guardian will let any melt write in their opinion section if they are well known enough & she sure is), but she doesn't because why bother upsetting the applecart? After all, there's a good chance that one of her colleagues worked for Guido (believe Jim Waterson was an intern there) & certainly the way the media is going she will work with more than 1 in the rest of her career. "Look at this picture. It's being shared by lefties despite being made by people who worked for RT!" "OK, but is the image wrong?" "No, but you're being duped into spreading Russian propaganda." "Does the source matter if the material is indisputably true?" "Whatabboutism!" Gosh, I'm glad someone is doing real journalism.

As anyone who’s done corporate investigations knows, whistleblowers are, overwhelmingly, weird slightly antisocial cranks. That’s the personality type that ever makes decisions on the basis of principle rather than expedience. People who go on principle-driven crusades of any type are IMO cut from the same cloth. Cadwallader is undoubtedly a crank and I think is also right about the susceptibility of what’s laughably called our “elite” to foreign influence.

Vote leave massively overspent on the brexit ref, breaking electoral law. Targeted ads are what they spent a lot of it on via the consultancy Cambridge analytica Facebook refuses and is under no obligation to release any information about what those ads where, or how they were targeted. Nothing about her basic premise is cranky.
