I thought this particular genderwoo talking point gotcha had been retired a few years ago after it had fulfilled its temporary usefulness. But they are on the last rolls of the dice now, so it's always worth another go.

Could we not put him in prison for taking us into a war over WMDs that turned out to be non-existent?
Asking for the families of service men and women killed in action and for the families of thousands of Iraqis bombed to bits.
Could we not ask why the parasites in Whitehall and the alphabet globalist agencies keep giving him titles and non-jobs with high pay for interfering where his advice isn't needed?

Prolonged warfare is not meant to benefit the people of any country. It is designed to benefit the military industrial complex and the parasite class it supports. These people love war. They can syphon more money from the population while pretending they care for them.
We haven't had a nation vs-nation war for centuries. They are all the parasites vs the people.

I knew a lovely chap in a drama group I had joined, and his wife was well into dementia after a stroke (now alas gone). To keep her entertained he set up cameras in the back garden linked to the TV so they could watch the wildlife after dark. I had popped round one evening for a meeting and was treated to the sight of mating hedgehogs grunting and humping with gay abandon. Some things once seen can't be unseen.

Interesting.
Both Hieroglyphs and Cuneiform were around about 3-4 thousand years BC. If true, this is a major find. Mankind has clearly been making marks for a long time, but a written form of language is specific to there being a consensus of meaning attached to symbols and a culture of passing on the learning and interpretation of these meanings.
I also find it interesting when we know of cultures who have almost no writing, for example some native north, south and central American tribes. Is this evidence of a predominately oral culture or something else? One commonality of all cultures is artistic development. I cannot think of a civilisation that didn't produce art in some form or other.
What the writing is used for tells us a great deal about a civilisation, because the medium is the message.
The key moments for mankind were speaking, writing (including reading), publishing/printing (and now its extension of the internet). I wonder if there is another milestone awaiting us.

I too remember that night.
We had just come back from a family holiday and after putting the kids to bed we settled with a glass of wine and a film on the TV. Without fail, every single advert featured a newspaper claiming to have exclusive photos of Dodi and Di. We were sick of it. We thought it intrusive and salacious. I remember saying to my husband that it would serve the media right if something horrible happened to the couple because their obsessive coverage was so unpleasant.
I woke up to the news of the crash on the radio.
I've often wondered if it were my fault.

The post-vocalic R is specific to a higher social class as well. There was a *test* in which people visited different department stores in NY and asked for something which could be found on the *fourth floor.* The posher the store, the more inflection on the post vocalic R.
I don't know if this is still true. As demographics change, so do accents and idiolects.
In the UK, the post vocalic R is more pronounced in the west country and is often perceived as a lower social marker, more of a country bumpkin.

I was in my local Asda with my parents a few months back. I mentioned to the cashier that I wasn't a fan of this tech. I didn't do it in a nasty way, because it's neither his fault or responsibility. During the check out, we put through some wine and my mum did her usual joke about him needing to see some ID to check she was old enough. The cashier then got a bit pissy and said *now you like digital ID?* or words to that effect. It's interesting how people conflate issues. I happen to agree with showing ID to protect minors from making some purchases. That's not the same as monitoring all of us to see that we're being good boys and girls.
I had a similar one in Lidl's. I was asked if I had a store card and I said my usual that I didn't because they're just spying apps to collect data. Again, I don't do it rudely because the cashiers are just doing their job. A chap in the queue behind me shouted at me that the government knows what we're doing all the time if we have a mobile phone, so why was I bothering (ie I should just get with the programme).
It's fascinating how many people will cheer for their enslavement and demonise those of us who raise concerns.

I'm all for freedom of speech. She can hold these views if she wants to, and express them. But on a platform or in a way in which her affiliation to a professional body is not apparent.
When you work, especially in the professions, it's never a good idea to mix work with political opinions. Advertising where you work as part of your social media, then using it to defame or insult others is not a good look. I smacks of being unable to regulate yourself.
I also find it interesting that those who consider it ok for people to lose work/lose jobs/die for their opinions are staggered when it happens to them or those they agree with. They obviously don't realise that they have already conceded that point, and they must think that their rules don't apply to them. Demanding tolerance when you have shown none is the height of irony.

The point is that both boys and girls can bully and experience bullying, but it manifests in different ways.
I used to have collective and individual conversations about bullying and would adapt them accordingly. Those who are bullied need the primary help to move on, not get stuck in a cycle of being bullied, and not let it damage their lives (most instances); and the bullies need to know why they can't continue and what the sanctions will be now and going forward.
Otherwise it's just firefighting each time there's an incident.
And the path of least resistance tends to removing the victim rather than confronting the bully. And we always get more of the behaviour we reward.

But that's the beauty of the modern world.
Nobody has to be remotely competent in public services. All they need to do is spaff money on DIE schemes (because they increase bureaucracy ad infinitem), let infrastructure go to pot (because maintenance is expensive and not at all vote-winning sexy) and then blame any problems on climate crisis/systemic whatever/institutional whateverism (insert as needed) and make sure that anyone who complains is discredited as a bigot/far-right/whatever-ist/phobe.
Solving a problem through competence and efficiency is probably so heteronormative and colonialist.

The NHS *requires* DIE because it creates bureaucracies to employ the managers produced by elite overproduction. Their job will never be done because they would lose their jobs, so the goalposts must constantly shift to expand their power base.

It depends upon the circumstances.
Many homeless charities understand that there are different types of homeless people. Some are there because of a few terrible circumstances and won't need much help to get back on their feet again. Some are homeless because they are predisposed to making poor choices and no amount of money will help them.
The knack is identifying which are which.
