@claytoncarruthe @luxemiaa They’re literally recharged by the engine every time you use them what are you smoking

@HiddenYorkshire I dont recall any negative connotations to Curleys wife - Curley on the other hand....

I've just read Of Mice and Men for the first time since high school and I'm going to be very woke for a moment because my reading of it has changed quite significantly since then. Yes, Lennie is just big and friendly and doesn't know his own strength and wouldn't hurt a fly etc etc but the whole plot - and audience sympathy - hinges on a physically intimidating, mentally disabled man repeatedly grabbing and holding onto women's clothes. Yes, we know he doesn't mean anything by it, he just wants to touch the purty clothing; but the women don't know that, and the audience is conditioned to sympathise with Lennie and not the women who are terrified by him. Curley's Wife doesn't even get a name, and she's a whore with red lipstick anyway. And it's not an isolated incident. Lennie did it at Weeds, which is what got him and George kicked out of there, and he did again to Curley's Wife. Now imagine that you're one of the women suddenly cornered by a hulking creature of a man who grabs you and doesn't let go and tells you how he loves your red dress, and there's nothing you can do to stop it. That's terrifying. That is where my locus of sympathy sits. Of Mice and Men is a complex book, but I find myself increasingly uncomfortable with the way the audience is conditioned to sympathise and associate with Lennie.

@BabylonS0N @declassifiedUK Reading the article 1) The UK hasnt 2) A UK based company may have - but as the only part identified in the article is a mechanical component to a trainer - that may have been ignorance rather than willful attempt at rule breaking

@declassifiedUK “Belgium has strict laws on the transhipment of military items to Israel through its ports and airports, including a ban on overflights carrying weaponry through its airspace.” So the UK has broken the law.

Two shipments of military components bound for Israel from the UK have been seized in Belgium. Here's how we helped to stop an illegal arms shipment to Israel👇 declassifieduk.org/how-a-uk-arms-…

@Chirurgic @DraculaeDyke SM were suppossed to be temporary (possibly even the Primarchs) and replaced post crusade Empy ensuring A) single gender B) sterile would have helped ensure Terra had some control over replacements. Post Heresy just being the IoM probably ensured it didnt change.

@DraculaeDyke It's not even default, like, there were matriarchal societies and geno battalions where the women were the officers It's specifically Big E being weird about it in a way that will have permanent consequences

you could change the gender of all but one of the primarchs without needing to change anything beyond surface level aesthetics. their gender is very unimportant to their characters beyond male is default, fulgrim is the exception

@Heccles94 @ElectoralCommUK Id say impractical and i dont like the antagonistic phrasing But I fail to see where deporting illigal immigrants is illigal or immoral. Id suggest failing to do so is more dertrimental to the (real) immigrant population.

Hi @ElectoralCommUK Can you please look into this ASAP. It appears to be both highly illegal and highly immoral. Please RT if you agree this is deeply concerning.

@Wafel_2 @DraculaeDyke To avoid any argument - im suggesting a lore aspect as to why not Anyone wanting to play / Head cannon FSM absolutely should do so. In the same way my IG are commanded by SoB ( Fluff reason to use a Creed Proxy as I dont like the model)

@DraculaeDyke Maybe gw is just afraid of the chud onslought that will follow that development...

actually to add to this im genuinely so surprised chaos space marines havent like even tried to experiment with their geneseed to allow women undergo the space marine transformation, so much talk about running low on soldiers why not add a whole new group to kidnap from?

@Wafel_2 @DraculaeDyke Possibly On the other hand the paranoia of the imperium and fear of being replaced by a race of superhumans - would make a logical reason why the IoM would not produce FSM as well as ensuring SM were sterile. Dont forget SM were meant to be replaced after the crusade

@DraculaeDyke Im clearly tired I spent at least 30 seconds trying to work out A)where nightlord Orcs were in Lore B) How are Orcs Gendered (At least since the Fungus retcon).

@LizzieMarbach @Ok1ah0maC0wboy Thats fine - but may I suggest the same applies here as when men have passed comment on Nose piercings / Tats etc 1) Its subjective 2) we play video games (or tabletop games) for us - not for you

@Ok1ah0maC0wboy It’s a general rule that most women find it unattractive. There are exceptions.

I know this is unpopular, but it will always be unattractive for a grown man to play video games. Some women might be understanding or pretend like they don’t care that you spend hours playing, but they do. It is extremely unattractive to women and will never not be. 🤷🏼‍♀️

@SPQLondinium @brookebay21 He progressed from tory to Labour to BUF

@brookebay21 Ha ha. Mosley was a Labour MP 😂 he even tried to start an independent Labour Party with Labour God Ney Bevan. Labour have always had a problem with anti semitism 😂😂

Same

@brookebay21 Always fail to remember that Mosley was a Labour MP as well.

@StevePaul63 @wallacedadmsk05 Encouraging people to use cars less is not the same as banning cars. So in that hes correct Greens have campaigned for SUVs to be banned on several occasions though - which if not hypocritical is poor optics as its suggestive of a do as your told plebs mindset

@wallacedadmsk05 This is awkward. x.com/grok/status/20… Even Grok calls you out and tells you that Green policies include making people walk in order to reduce reliance on cars. Do you ACTUALLY know what YOUR policies are? Or are you just another deranged follower of the Tit Whisperer???

@wallacedadmsk05 @StevePaul63 But your party has launched campaigns against " Kiddie killing Gas Guzzling" SUVs and demonised their drivers. It could be deemed hypocritical for an urban dwelling green candidate to drive a car that your party says unnacceptable in towns.

@StevePaul63 Literally none of our policy says remove cars though.

@Heccles94 You dont think him being a predatory con man is a problem, but youdo think reform MPs should be forced to resign for any impropriety. Youve fallen into the trap of whats acceptable is defined by if you agree with them.

They have nothing else. They have run out. It’s embarrassing. Zack Polanski will be the next PM when the Greens win in 2029.

@zarahsultana No one has been arrested for holding a sign opposing Genocide Lots have been arrested for including on that sign support for a proscribed group. You know this yet you keep repeating the same lie, youre the LW version of Tommy Robinson

The Met’s refusal to investigate war crimes committed by British nationals in the IDF is an absolute disgrace. Meanwhile, over 3,000 people face action under terrorism laws for holding placards opposing genocide. The Met should serve the public, not their political masters.

@ForsterM2023 @EmilySm43 The latter isnt increasing at all Whats happening is its being taken far more seriously and particuarly in the case of (born as) women abusing boys - its no longer seen as a victimless crime and they are being prosecuted.

@EmilySm43 100 percent. And the same goes for those few women raping boys and girls. The latter being a phenomenon which is increasing now that some men claim to be women.

Do you agree? 🤔

@EmilySm43 Possibly But to do so, We do need to be sure that things like opening the door wont result in a torrent of abuse of the "I can open a door myself you sexist pig" type.

Can we actually do that?

@Common_Sense_G @Heccles94 On Twitter Free speech is only acceptable if its coming from people you agree with. (Thats equally applicable to posters of all groups)

@Heccles94 Wait are you okay? So its okay for politicians to criticise the police, but it is not okay for police chiefs to point out the criticism is nit correct and to defend the police against that criticism? How are you this against free speech?

It is absolutely correct and proper for politicians to scrutinise the actions of the police force. It is completely unacceptable for the police force to comment on and get involved in politics. Mark Rowley should resign.

@Heccles94 He publically responded to the politicians public ill informed comments. Thats not being political and its rather forced upon him in order to give the public the correct info. Albeit wasted as those eagerly lapping at Zachs plums dont care about facts - just edgy sound bites

@Lorgarwasright2 Cover and hidden ok thats a challenge, but I can still screen with my Cadians and keep my tanks from being tied up in melee. Ah right were going to nerf screening. There has to be an unrevealed rule / mechanic / clarification or shooty armies are buggerred

I hear 11th might have a unit coherency bubble, units can’t spread out more than 9. Look fair enough but I miss the days when I could string a unit of 30 plague bearers across the table and hold 2 points at once
