A million dollars a year is SO MUCH MONEY. I live in NYC, and I am incredibly fortunate and privileged and I literally can’t even imagine how you could spend that much money! I don’t want for anything! My dogs are spoiled! What do they do with it all? Pay your fuckin’ taxes sheesh

I started being genuinely happier with my life and career when I got over the idea that doing manual work was in any way shameful. It's really not, and, hell, I honestly enjoy it a lot more than I would an office job.

Thing is: this is a choice. I am spending most of my time doing a PhD.

This also happened with David Reimer, who was touted as a success and used as the template for intersex mistreatment for decades to come, even after he detransitioned and later killed himself as an adult. There is a reason these fucks avoid longitudinal studies.
Rekers and Lovaas tortured a boy to make him "straight" and then reported that their abuse made him a happy normal boy, when in reality he was broken by it and his family blame the experiment for why he later took his own life as an adult. They traumatized him for life and called it a success.

This post and most replies to it are missing the point. The claim isn't "the university should have done better", it is "we didn't get what we paid for". Which is true!

The issue is, given the unavoidability of what happened, who has to suffer loses? The legal claim here is: the universities
This is emblematic of the consumer culture that fees have engendered.

What the hell did the students expect? It was a ONCE IN A CENTURY PANDEMIC. There were LAWS against congregating in public. Staff worked themselves to the bone to get online delivery working.

This "it's actually a Russian spy plot" stuff was not only used as an attack line against Corbyn, we watched the hacks workshop it in real time when the NHS privatisation documents dropped, because they already knew they were never going to report a single positive thing about Labour in 2019.
This is exactly the same shit the same journalists gladly engaged in when the targets were the Labour left and every single one of them can fuck themselves in the eyes, ears and anus, if they want to get precious about it now.

a word of advice: if you're translating the Dutch term for horse breeding - which is "paardenfokken" - you should really be aware that while you *can* translate it as "horse fucking" you really shouldn't do that

For the record, measles typically hospitalizes about 25% of those it infects, and kills ~0.1-0.3%.

It's dangerous for that alone (by these numbers: ~40-480 dead kids), but measles has a nasty trick. It suppresses immune function for years afterwards so other infections can kill even more children.
🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Health officials are racing to contain a growing measles outbreak in London, which has struck down dozens of young children and affected 7 schools and a nursery.

UKHSA has warned an outbreak across London could see 40,000 - 160,000 cases:

By refusing to even consider a customs union, Keir Starmer himself is the biggest block to closer ties with Europe.

Unless he changes that stance, this is all just meaningless blather

Today Khalil's children borrowed Lulu here from one of their neighbours. He used to be a stray and now he comes to visit sometimes.

Remember that every Palestinian isn't just a bundle of needs and hunger, but a person with the capacity for fullness and love.
