“How intoxicating to feel like God the Father and to hand out definitive testimonials of bad character and habits.” ~ Albert Camus, The Fall. #albertcamus #everyoneshouldreadcamus

Reminder: Tolkien hated Disney. He called them "hopelessly corrupted" and knew they'd ruin any story they touched. Why? Tolkien's storytelling philosophy was profoundly different… (thread) 🧵

@Bull_Rush4570 @MrsCowboyBen @NickAugust_ She's not an alcoholic. She's a social drinker who quit drinking for good. She's pretty open about that if you follow her.

@MrsCowboyBen @NickAugust_ Well, I stand by what I said. I think her phrasing is odd. No alcoholic I know would describe their process that way. I shared her post with a friend who is in recovery & he said it sounds like fluffy BS. Tbh, my gut tells me she's embellishing or making it up for attention.

@LBofBromley my food waste hasn’t been collected for weeks. I have submitted it as a missed collection numerous times. It’s getting a bit ridiculous. Can someone get back to me on here & confirm what’s going on please?

Artist is J.R.R. Tolkien

Hey FYI @AmazonUK all my orders of soft items that have arrived these past few days have either been slashed open or have a little slit like this. Kinda like someone was checking to see what’s inside. I didn’t take a photo of the others, but this one arrived just now.

@js_farinet @pearlythingz @littleapostate This is indeed correct

@pearlythingz @littleapostate My MIL had my two SIL twins at like 37-38. I'm pretty sure women drop more eggs as they age

My mom had twins in her thirties, and it was not IVF My aunt had twins in her thirties, and it was not IVF If I have twins in my thirties, it will not be through IVF

@HolgateMiss @marcuschown I am so sorry. For my mum it metastasised to her brain. She was 44. She ran out of morphine. My dad rushed out to get some. She died in front of my brother & sister. I was at school. My dad came home to find his wife dead. My siblings needed therapy. I never got to say goodbye.

@marcuschown I'm sorry but only last year I witnessed my mum die in agony.She had trip neg breast cancer that has metastasised into skin cancer (boils, open lesions all over her front and back).The pall team could only say 'we don't know what else we can try'. Morphine didn't touch the sides.

In 40 years as a palliative care nurse, my wife has never seen a patient die in agony. Always it has been possible to control their pain. Sometimes, it has taken a while to get the drugs right. But that has always been achieved.

@marcuschown My mum had a painful ending with cancer without a nurse present. My dad had rushed to get her morphine. She was 44 & died in front of her children. I was at school but my elder brother & sister needed therapy afterwards. So I dunno, there cases where it happens man.

@ReformedArgghh @Goodtweet_man @coldxman Coleman isn’t a progressive. He also saw his mother die young from cancer. I did too. I imagine if he had a terminal illness he would make use of this. I know I would. End of life suffering is cruel & if someone doesn’t want to go through that, then let them have that freedom.

@Goodtweet_man @coldxman None of these progressives have the courage of their convictions.

An important and long overdue policy change. I hope American states follow suit.

@Goodtweet_man @coldxman I would if I had a terminal condition. Don’t forget, Coleman saw his mother die young from cancer. I did too. End of life suffering is actually inhumane. Palliative care doesn’t do much. Giving people the choice is the humane thing to do.

@coldxman Then volunteer yourself

@greg_i_yam @AaronKheriatyMD @coldxman I think it’s probably more to do with the fact his mother died of cancer at a young age. Mine did too. I’ve seen end of life suffering on palliative care. I support this bill. I also value the individual freedom to choose what to do with your life.

Finally, a balanced piece on Ms Gabbard. Makes a change from the hysteria being churned out by the media at present. economist.com/united-states/…

@CoachSorenson76 @ChrisWillx Yessssss 😭😭😭😭

@ChrisWillx This is true, and a lot of it happens in subtle ways that men don’t even notice.

Hot women get bullied. “More physically attractive women are disproportionately targets of aggression from other women. In one study on adolescent females and males, attractiveness increased females’ odds of incurring same-sex aggression by 35% and decreased males’ by 25%.” — @robkhenderson

@BatesMoira @AyoCaesar 💀

@AyoCaesar Nah. She wasn't quite ready this time. She'll be much better prepared next time

Specialist in failure.

@Kwin8675309 @Funnyda01518502 @Riley_Gaines_ Her most recent post has a caption stating that what she is doing isn’t normal. She posts very infrequently, which is likely because she needs to protect her safety. So yeah, that’s all from the account you shared to state the morality police don’t exist.

@Kwin8675309 @Funnyda01518502 @Riley_Gaines_ vm.tiktok.com/ZGd2s3sC4/ In this video she states that the morality police are everywhere and she hasn’t been out for a month.

To all the women in the United States who feel like they're “oppressed” because Donald Trump is the next President... This is what real oppression looks like.

🧵I come from a rural working class background one where I won’t inherit anything & that doesn’t bother me. My partner is a farmer, he works as a contractor. Working with family can be incredibly hard, his dad currently has dementia at only 62. He didn’t even know if he would

@MiRaebel It was 20 years ago 🫠 and I chucked the course notes out over a decade ago and now work in UX. I was mentioning it as something I remember. Cardiff Uni doesn't list their 3rd year modules anymore, but it seems like many other unis have it on the syllabus kent.ac.uk/courses/module…

@contentqueenie Ok, but what did they use in your hormones and behaviour module? They must have based the course on something.

I’m trans, and a high performing former athlete, including 7.5 years in the army. Been on HRT for 5.5 years, and I can still prove that if I competed against women in sports, I still have an advantage. I was on path to prove it by breaking the female squat record until an old Army injury sidelined me. But I still perform in the 80th percentile on a spin bike after never riding before 2020

@ThePosieParker @JamesKe33691032 @jk_rowling Posie, that was embarrassing. I don’t know why you’re arguing with someone who actually supported you (or did, I don’t like being insulted) & trying to police who JK Rowling can talk to. It’s possible to have a nuanced view of the world. You’ve become exactly what you criticise.

@contentqueenie @sarahigdon @JamesKe33691032 @jk_rowling Ooooo a psychology degree…. And you read the stories of hormones in utero?
