I got this very welcome message today (shared with permission), and it's a big part of why I'm so public about what I've been through and am continuing to work on with depression.

Comforting lies are much more appealing to many people than complicated truths. That’s why revivalist preachers can get so rich peddling them. You’ve answered your own question quite perfectly here.

This is my final night following Nigel Farage around the country. He is being greeted like a revivalist preacher by large crowds. MPs who dismiss him and patronise are misguided. They have to ask: why is he selling out halls across the country? Many of them won't like the answer

@DrPizza @TheYoUtopian @alastair3215 @esmereldapurse @BBCWalesNews House arrest keeps people out of prison but doesn’t stop them being prisoners. You’re being a bit silly but you know that of course.

@victimclture @alastair3215 @esmereldapurse @BBCWalesNews And even WTO terms restrict the UK in some ways. Generally, the better the agreement, the more autonomy you give up.

@victimclture @TheYoUtopian @alastair3215 @esmereldapurse @BBCWalesNews What the hell does that even mean? Her agreement puts us outside the EU. Isn't that what leavers want?

@TheYoUtopian @DrPizza @alastair3215 @esmereldapurse @BBCWalesNews Anybody that would vote for May's Withdrawal Agreement fails the test of being a genuine leaver for many people.

Ah yes, they problem is that Amazon delivery people aren't all in uniform, and not the notion that someone approaching your house with a package has done something that justifies being shot.

@jbarro @mattyglesias I dunno, impeaching and then having the senate decide "not guilty" feels like it teach a bad lesson as we head into his second term....
English
@mattyglesias This is by definition an issue of concern only to the already most-activated and most-partisan voters. They can literally be taken for granted.

Politically impossible how? It will be made impossible by liberals complaining on Twitter?
Tim Fernholz@TimFernholz
It is truly amazing how Democrats were prepared to fold on impeachment except that Trump keeps making it politically impossible for them to do so

@teroalhonen I dunno, I had to leave home and come into Manhattan.

Well, so far this is proving impossible, because part-way through the uninstallation it fails with a "file not found" error. What file isn't found? I have no idea, the logs (both dism and cbs) don't appear to actually say.

I enjoy the way the 90 day Huawei extension makes clear that there's no actual problem with the company, just presidential bloody mindedness.

@mary_grace @gregcons @drkellyannfitz Stereotypically bad at speaking/presenting, certainly. But the written word should be precise and detailed, and these are developer traits.
English
@mary_grace @gregcons @drkellyannfitz Having worked with both developers and writers, I can't say I've even met many *people* that I'd consider to be fantastic writers. Clear, articulate, engaging writing is the exception, not the rule.
(But the stereotype you describe is not one I've come across, anyway)

.@drkellyannfitz talking about poetry and programmers and geniuses this morning. Loving this! #Gluecon

@mary_grace @gregcons @drkellyannfitz Developers are poor writers and communicators, because most people are poor writers and communicators.

Stereotypes not only create gatekeeping behaviors but promote unhealthy practices. @drkellyannfitz #Gluecon

@blaktron Format and reinstall is a once a decade last resort
English
@DrPizza I’m not sure how much I would trust this installation for much other than reviewing how terrible an experience it was before format/reinstalling.

This is a consistent position and I wish more forced birthers had the honesty to adopt it

Pro-lifers have unintentionally sowed the seeds of injustice by exempting mothers who get abortions from prosecution. They, too, should face consequences. fdrl.st/czl
English
@TheYoUtopian @victimclture @alastair3215 @esmereldapurse @BBCWalesNews Yes, but that position requires intellectual honesty. It means admitting that the referendum was absurdly broad and could mean almost anything.
