You are quite right about that! I meant no briefings AFTER the events. They are being so embarrassed by the questions that it would actually be better for them not to hold pressers after a strike than to keep getting caught out.

I won't describe
How much I want her
Or how much I love her
Or how my soul

Yearns

Empty

Desperate

For just a glance
And that
Cheeky little smile
And the touch of her hand
Against mine

Better poets
Have done that
For centuries

The difference is
I don't want her

I want the person
She pretended to be

And that person
Does not
Even exist
And never has

Getting back into poetry again. This is not a pleasant read but I think we have all been there...

My reformado was so badly done that the plumber who came to reinstall my dishwasher has been drilling the wall for five minutes now and he's still not done...

Why does he have to DRILL?

Stand by for the WH declaring that all military briefings are classified and refusing to answer questions.

But yeah trying to please the left never works. They'll still denounce you as a traitor because you dislike Putin or Mao or even a little minor issue they REALLY care about. That's why the left split so much. They even hate THEMSELVES.

Brexit can't be undone for a generation at least. I live in the EU now and would vote "no" to readmit the UK because the next Tory (or Reform) govt will just invoke Article 50 again. But he could have rejoined the Single Market and Customs Union (or aimed to) and explained why.

Starmer's biggest error, IMO, was continuing to pretend that Brexit could work and he had to regain the "red wall". The polls clearly showed that Labour voters didn't turn out there *because of Corbyn*. Now their jobs are going.

I'm not helped by the fact that there's probably about 5,000 more people in my barillo right now due to Fallas. Selfish buggers eating all my bandwith for downloaing 118.9GB of data. Luckily I have a decent plan but prob gonna have to buy more credit...

Protip: downloading BG3 over a mobile 5g hotspot is not as fast as I would like it to be. Still, only 2 days so far.

They generally worked and slept 3 to a bed. Guards stopped them leaving. So yeah. You sort of described what I saw happening in Kenya. But it's way, way worse.

And yes. Part of the work did indeed involve soliciting tips and payments via MPESA from men in the USA. Failure to get enough tips resulted in punishments ranging from doing chores, not being allowed to leave the house, and beatings.

The sad thing about this is that there was a sex trafficking ring in Kenya last year. They operated via a well known US website and the abuse was horrific. They got shut down but are finding workarounds now. Looking at you, Lynne, Rachael, and David.

I have a few hours and it seems cool but my CFS means most new games are difficult to learn. I have a few dozen I've bought, love the look of, and can't learn. That's why I have 2,500 hours in Civ V (released 2010) and about the same in Factorio (2020). Kiss your family goodbye if you try Factorio.

Mate Civ V is the best. Including 6 and 7. It took me a while to adjust after 4 but once I got it, I never looked back. You do need the DLC (often all on sale for ten quid) and the mod which enhances the GUI. but yeah it's the best ib the series so far. I will die on this hill.

That late game moment in Civ 5 when another civ offers you peace and one of their cities and you had no idea you were even at war.

Greg thinks there will be elections in the fall. I'm not so sure. And if they do happen, by the time the SC overrule them, it'll be fait acompli. Act now, America.

Obviously that was part of a much longer conversation and I think that while I may have scored a goal, she walked off the pitch feeling good. She's really awesome. Let's call it a draw.

I did it! I beat therapy! A year ago I gave my therapist advice about dealing with clients because I was concerned for her. I gave her an uno reverse card in a picture frame. Today she told me she should have listened because I'd got it spot on. So... I guess I win?

Nail, meet head. If you dehumanize people it drives them further into their behavior because they feel attacked and seek sanctuary in what they know and feel comfortable with. And they go deeper into it

Dr Martin Luther King Jr knew this. Malcom X did at the end. Which is why both got assassinated

This is absolutely correct and the rule is there to protect your own humanity

Last year I got a sex trafficking operation in Africa shut down.

30 women were freed to my knowledge. Probably more.

I'm in touch with three of them. All doing well now.
