I cannot make eye contact with customers, but I *can* delve so deep into years-old neurology lectures and specifics about amyloid plaques and Tau proteins that in a medical emergency I completely forget I am the de facto Medical Emergency Guy on site.

….those 2 things are connected, probably

Should they leave their kids in the warzone? Does "my children are starving but somewhere else" give you bonus points on your application?

What are we saying here?
BBC News: "the government believe refugees are deliberately bringing their children to avoid deportation"

As opposed to doing what with their children??

We genuinely haven't even BEGUN to start to initiate a proper investigation of all the war crimes UK special forces have been accused of and already they're in "immunity now" mode
Treasonous human rights laws mean special forces now can’t even murder scads of civilians in a series of bloodcurdling war crimes and lie about what they’ve done while the government covers it up, without facing a lot of impertinent questions

Look, we are NOT saying Wes Streeting is plotting on our Discord but if he WAS plotting he wouldn't be because he's loyal to the leadership even though with his dead little eyes and lack of any morals he'd be a great candidate, but he is NOT the mod for #dagger-chat-cool-MPs-only, ok?!

It is lovely that Nebula is AI-free as well as ad-free tbh. It’s like YouTube but good.
Completely AI-free and devoid of slop, I think we've managed to build a platform which very much *isn't* designed to keep you swiping and scrolling, but wants you to find something you actually want to watch as fast as possible.

Which I guess is the ultimate side benefit of being ad free.

every day I thank God that pap isn’t well known outside of Botswana and RSA because if I had to start paying £10 for a kilo bag of Iwisa because a millennial white man with an exposed brick restaurant made a shit, gentrified version of it, I would Joker-ise on the spot.

Jamaica remains in a state of emergency after being battered by Hurricane Melissa, one of the strongest Atlantic cyclones in history. Mikaela Loach, a climate justice activist, says the hurricane was “caused by the climate crisis,” and says hurricanes should be named after oil executives.

It’s not moonshine its “unaged bourbon” it’s not being a hobo with seasonal employment it’s “van life” that’s not a trailer it’s a “tiny home” it’s not piecework it’s the “gig economy” - culture is the thin wedge to make survival strategies of the poor sound like fun fads
