This. One of the dangerous things about chronical pain that I think might be underappreciated is that it blinds you to signals that in a healthy person would cause them to seek medical help. When doctors ask now I always caveat that I'm a poor witness of my own wellness because there have been times when I felt like I was doing fine but in fact needed surgery. I don't know how doctors (or occupational health, or social workers, or carers) do it, there's basically no reliable information in talking to an ill person but that's like 90% of what you have to go on.

In fairness. "net zero" has a precise but pimited meaning. If anything using "net zero" as shorthand for "zero net increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide" is deficient in the first place. It's snappy and (reasonably) clear but very easy to twist or repurpose or reframe.

I don't see it. And who gives a shit what the logo is? Is this all journalism has to offer?Bacon sandwich-gate tier piss taking...

AV was a different kettle of fish. Garbage turnout and masses of undecideds in polling. I don't think anyone ever thought it was nailed on even if technically AV was ahead in some polls. Point stands though.

It is tricky to make something both snappy and accurate. I think anti-JOB might have worked better, but it sounds like a sex strike, so don't put me in charge of marketing.

Black lives matter is the least hyperbolic statement of that movement imaginable. That there was pushback even on that framing speaks more to the vile ess of its opponents than to a failure of marketing.

You might want to put it on your list but it's the opposite problem to your other examples if anything.

He's using those words to defend not giving benefits to the parents of a third child though. It's just double speak: "it's not about handouts is about a social safety net". By playing into the framing of social safety nets as handouts he just defends the status quo. Definitely no evidence he really gets it.

Inspiring. Inquisitors and rogue traders are the best bits of the setting.

Why reference a fable at all if you're going to totally ignore it's message?

The tories have been the same arrogant, entitled breed the whole time. Labour have still lost to them repeatedly so it seems weird to chalk it up to luck this time.

Best I've seen so far is the independent and, while they add some sensible context, even they are quoting sunak as if he's speaking in good faith.

It pisses me off that this getting coverage when it contains no actual new information and is so obviously a conservative communications strategy.

Rishi is not accepting the rejection of his ideas at all. He's conjuring the spectre of hung parliament as a rallying cry to disaffected tory voters. Maria Caulfield quote about the differences between local and govt elections really hammers this home and every media outfit is blithely repeating it all like they're tory sock puppets.

In context, "overtones" is a pretty decent autocorrect for Overton here.

Yeah way too literal to be emtertaining. I guess if your reaction to the mayoral campaign is disaffected "both sides" BS (though no well informed person holds that view) then it would work shrugs. I'm sure as shit not reading the article because if their headline writing is that lazy I doubt there's anything of value beyond it.

Seeing a bit of blowback about the "happy ending" undermining the message about stoicism and missing the opportunity to portray challenges like moving as an opportunity for new adventures and growth. Seems fair in my view.

I will love it they do a moving away episode with another character to show both sides. Rusty maybe, military family...

I can't decide where I stand on these. They're a gorgeous kit of course but kitbashing unique and esoteric models was kind of the point of the inquisition for me. I bought a kit but haven't used any of them in game apart from the servitor, which fine servitors can get away with being mass produced and characterless (and also previous servitor kits are garbage).

Seems emblematic of the direction of 40k: higher quality product but less encouraging of actual hobbying and identity. Lovely minis and photos though thanks for sharing!

Professional athlete with famously controversial views:

1. says that his team needs to focus on their sport and avoid distractions in order to win
2. advertises a media appearance where he accuses a talks how host of pedophilia without reason or evidence

Thus spectacularly failing to follow his own advice in the space of about 30s.

Is your emergency fund $100bn? Tax brackets exist. No one's talking about you.

That's an interesting line to draw from social media. Depends who you view as the reasonable I guess but I'm not sure I follow. Got any material that fleshes it out?

Yeah both choices and experiences are valid for sure. But then maybe give the "hear me out" sarcasm a rest with someone who says they're sleep deprived and maybe struggling. Enjoy your uninterrupted nights!

Kicking malaria's butt too right. Sure you don't get to be a billionaire without exploitation. But I doubt I'd be smart enough to organise philanthropy as well as they seem to be. So props to them for caring?
