This is what diplomacy with a narcissist looks like, and everyone is doing it. Trump whisperers are in hot demand.
The bit I find funny is trump is so dense he doesn't even realise he's being spoken to and manipulated like you would a child. In this case for a good cause, so well done Rutte.
That's a really good read.
Actually decent science journalism, that is accurate and accessible.
Amen brother.
Except it isn't fake, and no evidence has been offered that it is.
Why is this fud being upvoted?
Yeah, they have some kind of formula that looks a bit like this... Something weird, something quasi-sexual, and actual products all mixed in together.
I get ones that always have something that looks like (but on closer inspection isn't) sex toys or BDSM clothing or nudity. Stuff like that.
But I have to say, it definitely works on me, I'm like wtf is that, and then spend a good 30s decoding what it must mean.
I see no evidence. 🙈
Good luck with that argument lawyers.
This image is incredible.
I didn't read that article either, fuck their cookies.. This press release from the NHS says treatment and doesn't mention vaccine. I guess it's a bad headline.
RIP. She was a fighter and a hero.
We can lament the lack of full justice but please let's not forget this woman's massive achievements...
Epstein died awaiting trial. Maxwell is doing 20 years. Andrew is a social pariah who has been ejected from the royal family. And everyone around the world knows about Epstein's trafficking ring.
None of this would have happened without Giuffre's tenacity and bravery for so long in the face of insurmountable odds and incredibly powerful people.
It's not justice until every charge is answered for and every perpetrator faces trial. BUT.. this woman achieved so much and deserves to be remembered as such.
Let's not frame her as a downtrodden victim. She's a fucking fighter. And she won an astounding victory. This woman felled giants.
Anti-feminist views are far right views and they go hand in hand with other conservative views like homophobia. There's no conflation required.
It's a pretty core part of the right's ideology/fantasy about traditional roles and structures in society. Racism as well, trans rights... It's all part of the bundle.
Still, it probably has a chilling ef fect. Voting Dems becomes like a secret you have to keep rather than something you should shout from the roofs - less likely to make that post on social media, put up a sticker or a sign, tell your friend and family etc.
Maybe it's a manual/auto difference. If I know I'm only going to be stopped for a few seconds I just keep the clutch in and the engine doesn't enter start/stop.
