A real chess grandmaster doesn't have to clop clop clop the squares for the horsey. They just know what square it's gonna end on and they pick it up and put it there. Don't even have to do clop clop, woahhh! (turn around 90 degrees) neighhh

if i understand right, ozempic "works" (in its off-brand anti-fatness use) by reducing appetite? so if we had any news media that was not captive to the interests of the upper class dinner party circuit, we might instead see headlines such as "Amid catastrophic UK poverty crisis, Labour paid by pharmaceutical company to administer their hunger-suppressing drugs to jobless and disabled" instead of "wowza! miracle drug"
(two unprecedented UN investigations several years apart find that the UK is committing "grave and systemic" violations of disabled people's human rights under international law) Labour: we are going to eliminate hunger by injecting the plebs with anti-appetite drugs
"announcing our new strategy to help poor unemployed and disabled people - we will be giving them more money. this project will cost less than our previous pharmaceutical interventions and is expected to directly raise standards of living across the country etc etc
me: ohhhhh i am so hungry sir keir starmer KC: not to worry! (injects me with the medicine that makes you not hungry, which costs around 20x the price of a single very high quality meal) me: wow! now i am not hungry any more! thank you sir keir starmer KC! diabetic person: can i have my medicine back please sir keir starmer KC: fuck off!!!!!!
would really appreciate it if UK journos accurately called ozempic "hunger suppressant" rather than "weight loss". it would make headlines read a bit more starkly ("hunger suppressant medication for unemployed" etc)
