@HebrideanHecate Perhaps it's time for us to remind MPs that it is a privilege for them to work for us, not a career path for grifters that despise us. -

@HebrideanHecate If he can't keep his cool doing door to door, perhaps being an MP isn't for him. -

@polarisera This is a generation who think that feeling a bit sad is evidence of mental ill health. They pathologise life and experiences.
There are some people with mental health problems, and some of them are serious. They can't get help because the system is clogged up with wannabes.
If more people went out in the fresh air more often, had a laugh with friends, ate fresh food they cooked from scratch and got off their phones, the number of people with mental ill health would plummet, and those that really need it might get some help.
But the pharmaceutical industry wouldn't make money. -

@polarisera @nicholas @ninapaley We are governed by criminals, hence the need to criminalise those who expose the crime. -

@ILoveAmericaNews In the UK also.
But we will have a surplus of useless graduates with degrees in non-binary interpretative dance and unearthing pottery through grievance who need cushy jobs in the public sector mandating pronouns or monitoring days of remembrance, because they cannot do anything useful.

@nicholas @ninapaley @polarisera And herein lies the problem. We are governed by a new aristocracy who regards our money as their own private piggy bank to fund themselves and their cronies. The charity/industrial complex. They pretend they care about causes in order to steal money and blame us if we cut the funding because *starving orphans* or whatever. I find it hard to believe that any money ever went to a single deserving cause because the sort of people who do this don't have the empathy to care or the skill set to do good works. All they know is steal and lie.
And don't even get me started on the alphabet agencies, who have caused so many wars, upheaval, unrest, regime change, civil war, mass migration etc etc to further the interests of the military/industrial/pharmaceutical complex ie their cronies.
I think they almost want us to know, so they can rub our noses in it and say - look at us, we steal and lie, what are you going to do about it?
The arrogance. -

@polarisera @nicholas @ninapaley I read a substack which said that if you want to find out who's stealing your electricity, you disconnect from the grid and see who else's lights go out. -

@polarisera @ninapaley I watch from the UK with interest. We have something similar here, especially in the NHS and academe. Local authorities are also good at *projects* they can spaff money on.
It's certainly obvious that the only way to fight a crime cartel is either with an group of *untouchables* or with another crime cartel. -

@ninapaley @polarisera When something is so corrupt, sometimes it's better to clean it out completely and start again. -

@RadicalCartoons @HebrideanHecate I'm glad I had mine in my 20s. I loved being at home with them and didn't regret it at all. It did cost me a *career* (ha!) in teaching because the culture them was if you hadn't made senior management by your early 30s then forget it. But I was able to fit work around family with some childminding and some mutual support from other mums.
I think some feminism didn't help because it compared men and women in ways that were not compatible. Men and women are of equal worth, but we are not alike. It also told women that they had to be like men to be equal instead of supporting women to choose the path that was best for them. There was a sneering at mums (and dads) that opted to be the stay-at-home one.
The ones that really annoyed me were the *have it all* mums - they held down a 6 figure salary job while having five children and baking their own bread. What they always failed to mention was the support system of women (cleaners, childcare etc) that underpinned it.
