I had a quick look to see what the twitter hivemind thought, and it looks like a lot of people clocked that Truss had a strong benzo look, and not for the first time by the looks of it.

It makes sense for them to have pre-prepared scripts in case of power outages. Like they have obits for important people prepared just in case, or there being both a success and a failure speech written for the moonlandings. What's insane is that we're talking about power outages in a nominally first world country. The last time I experienced powercuts as a standard thing was when we lived in Goa back in the 80s, when they were a regular feature during the monsoon.

fuctifino posted:This is really sad Being in Scotland, general TV not representing things like they are up here (i.e. Not London) is something I got used to, but it's been occurring to me more and more that regular TV, not just the news, is doing the same thing across most of the UK. TV dramas and soaps all seem to be full of characters with affluent lifestyles; "reality" TV shows full of the types of people likely to have woodburning stoves heating their house. Destitution seems purposefully hidden from UK TV shows to the point where everything seems like escapist fantasy. I know it's not new or anything but it just riles me up a bit that you've got the likes of bake off, the nations darling TV show, flaunting about making cakes just so a fat prick and walking corpse can have a wee chuckle at how someone's cake isn't moist enough. Meanwhile, there's a lot of families out there who are going to struggle to afford formula for their new babies. I bet we'll never see Noel Fielding lead a bake off special of Stand Up To Poverty on channel 4.

being a long term poor there's something especially grating about a series of media outlets suddenly all deciding now is the time to look at just how bad things have gotten like identical woeful examples haven't been available to them for the last two loving decades I mean no doubt it's gotten worse- it's gotten far bloody worse- and that happened while many of the exact same loving papers were pushing expertly polished narratives of the benefits scrounger and cheerleading every vicious cut

Kin posted:Being in Scotland, general TV not representing Broadcast TV is overwhelmingly watched by pensioners these days, who tend to be better off and mostly insulated from the pressures that working-age people are feeling. If you want eyeballs on your programmes, you need to appeal to them. This is why broadcast TV these days is all about people buying £800k cottages in the countryside, antiques roadshow, home renovations, cosy cooking shows and comfy comedy dramas set in the 50's and 60's where there's an excuse for all the actors to be white.

Yeah look back at older videos of Truss and she has the same blank, empty stare. It's just that nobody has like, asked her questions before. Somewhat pointed questions. On video. That said she's probably not in a great place healthwise, physically or mentally, with the stress of the last month, so it's not unreasonable to assume that there's some kind of medication involved, either professional or self-medication. Even if that's just drinking a bit too much at night which makes her look even worse than usual during the day.

Truss has always sounded pretty dumb - even in that resurfaced video of her at the Lib Dem event she sounded kinda stupid, which I was more willing to forgive as students aren't always media savvy even today, let alone 25 years ago when being in front of a camera was a much rarer affair.

It's really obvious that the intensity of scrutiny you come under as PM has come as a massive shock to her, and she just can't handle it and that's odd when you think about it: she's got quite a bit of cabinet experience so you'd think she'd have gone into being PM with a fair idea of the expectations on her.

It's easier to understand that the media has given the Tories free reign to be thick as pigshit, only given Labour poo poo for things they say. If Dianne Abbot misremembers a number off the cuff it's the nine o'clock news. If Liz Truss doesn't even know the two regions in Ukraine under dispute, despite being foreign secretary and during a loving war, it's a couple of tweets that we laugh about. She has been on easy mode this whole time and for the first time ever her incompetence has a tangible effect on something she's accountable for: the economy.

It makes sense though if you assume (based on well, *points at everything*) that she's a bit... daft, uninterested, doesn't have an analytical mindset, etc. I've seen plenty of people who simply don't learn from their surroundings, because they are not interested in or intelligent enough to do it. It's quite possible that yes, she's been sitting in cabinet and simply switched off whenever the focus was not on her. Or she's been dumb enough to only see the pomp and circumstance. After all, a weird kind of cargo cult idea of what it means to lead a country seems intrinsic to the UK in general, but especially the Tories. Look at how many Tory politicians seem to believe that physically acting like Thatcher is what makes you a Politician. Look at May and Truss clearly trying to adopt her speech mannerisms more once elected PM. But then that's complaining about cargo cult political ideas in a country where a magic stick means that Parliament is valid. lilljonas fucked around with this message at 10:00 on Oct 19, 2022 |

But Rostov is very much Russia.
