In one sense I agree that starting a lengthy rejoin process would be wasteful at this point, and detract from more important issues. However, we desperately need to get away from this hard right Tory approach of sticking two fingers up to the EU at every turn, and deriding anyone that even suggests working with them.
The EU is or largest and closest trading partner, and if the small boats crisis is truely to be addressed it will require collaboration and compromise between nations (not you Rwanda). The constant suggestion that any steps closer to the EU would be some kind of 'betrayal' of an imaginary majority of the public drives me crazy, and that goes for Labour (specifically Starmer) as well.
'Evacuation zone' aka these peoples homes and communities, where many other civilians need rescue and aid. No no please keep supporting the idea that 2 million people can just move to an undeveloped plain and have all aid including food, water and shelter withheld. Collective punishment is a war crime.
Monstrous take. Do better.
I see this a fair bit, but like our main things are Full English (fried), Fish & Chips (fried), and Roast Dinner (roasted, shockingly), so where does this come from?
Roswell was actually multiple incidents remembered incorrectly iirc

Good pod on the topic
Isn't Dishonored somewhat of a spiritual successor?
I remember seeing a comic once about two devs, one complaining that this senior always puts lots of nitpicky comments on her code review, and the other replies that he always makes one obvious mistake, so the senior can point it out and feel like they've done their job
Do your thing internet, cos I cannot find it
Its simple greed and disdain for their users that they somehow believe if they begin to charge for something that used to be free the use base will simply eat it and be happy.
I'm by no means saying that they have no further role in the company, and you are absolutely correct that these companies need to continue to innovate. This is why I mentioned transitioning control to a better candidate, because the role of the CEO changes as the company matures.
Smart founders should find a way to continue to play into their strengths instead of clinging to the highest title, otherwise they will always need to be removed.
Generally the type of people who make good founders have to be dreamers to believe that their crazy idea not only can work but can change the world.
These people do not make good leaders as the company matures, as it now needs certainty for investors and detailed plans and structure instead of moonshot fantasies.
The same traits that make them good founders also make it difficult for them to let go of their position, or recognize that they should transition control to a better suited candidate, so often they must be removed by the board.

Starmer is utterly terrified of getting painted with the anti-semitism brush, and is massively overcompensating as a result
Hey, the anime isn't going anywhere. You can still enjoy it whenever you like. Just accept this isn't for you, and be happy for the people it is for instead of gatekeeping.
Not a fan of the framing here, 'were' vs 'would be' as if the later is just a hypothetical rather than the reality of civilians in Gaza.
Highly recommend the podcast 'It's probably not aliens' if you want to find out more about the real history of the claims made in these kind of shows, and how the claims of aliens are often rooted in racism and colonialism
Any particular goals with Ada? Had an academic curiosity for a few years but never used it in earnest.
Deliberately trying to burn the house down on the way out more likely
Bit disappointed in the 'other galaxy', and the lack of effort to make it feel different. Especially the local raiders being basically tuskans, using the same energy rifles as the main galaxy, more sisters of dathomir just with a different name and they still know of and care about the jedi.
Would really have liked it to feel more distinct from the star wars galaxy, like it had a truely separate history, and not just like another planet.
This episode had a lot of positives though, more insight into Balen's motives and the new storm trooper armour was great.
Totally agree. There's no reason to respond to posts where the OP on Reddit will never see it, and the bot posts drown out any genuine user posts.
It works for a small number of cases, but on the whole it's a misguided attempt to fake content instead of growing communities naturally and it needs to go.
