You can't really get people what they actually want-a raise, a beach house, the reassurance that every decision they ever made was the correct decision. So we end up paying Jeff Bezos to overnight some kitschy piece of plastic that will sit in a landfill in six months.
When the cashier said she was exhausted from working extra shifts to make some money for Christmas, the man behind me chipped in that it would be worse once she takes all our money (in case Rachel Reeves was wondering, her budget pitch-rolling is definitely cutting through). Routine enough, if he hadn't gone on to add that she and the rest of the government needed taking out, and that there were plenty of ex-military men around who should know what to do, before continuing in more graphic fashion until the queue fell quiet and feet began shuffling.
The winter of early 1981 was a simpler time, a gentler time. Like so many college students, I was watching Saturday Night Live in the living room of my small dorm when the SNL cast member Charles Rocket dropped an f-bomb on live television. I looked around at my fellow students. Did we just hear that? The show was already struggling with ratings, and within a few weeks, Rocket and the producer-and eventually, most of the cast-were fired.
It's certainly clear that the issues of boys and men haven't gone away in the last few years. If anything, they're getting even more attention, which is good when it's the right kind of attention. And what I've noticed is that, perhaps as a result of videos like this and of the broader conversation, is that the permission space to talk about the issues of boys and men seems to have broadened, whereas it felt like a very difficult thing to talk about.
Kemi Badenoch was about to make a speech about restricting non-British nationals' access to disability and sickness benefits, another instalment of her toxic quest to divide people into makers and takers.
Oscar Wilde famously noted that there's only one thing worse than being talked about - not being talked about at all. This resonates with Ireland's aviation discussions, particularly regarding Dublin Airport, which have been extensive but often lacking in substance.
The new Banksy artwork featuring a stenciled lighthouse has sparked widespread speculation about its meaning and location, showcasing the elusive artist's ongoing impact on public discourse.
Roberts remarked that while the rule of law is theoretically vital, its rarity in practice is concerning, especially for the younger generation shaping our judicial landscape.
First-year composition classes provide essential skills for students to learn to articulate disagreement respectfully, fostering a new way to participate in public discourse.
Stop this nonsense that if you don't agree with @jk_rowling you hate women. She hates men. This is where this truth lies. She cannot differentiate between a 'trans' woman and a biological male.
"I think these are the kinds of discussions that should happen in public, not just inside corporate headquarters. That's why I built the site to let anyone explore the data themselves."
You can hate me for it, but I'm not a liar. Trump was gracious and measured. And why isn't that in other settings? I don't know, and I can't answer, and it's not my place to answer.
