Weather App: no more precipitation, even on the radar.

Me, looking out the window at all the predication: sure.

One tip is, obviously for the times when you don’t have writer’s block, is to stop writing when you know where the story is going, ‘cause when you start writing next time you know where to start off.

Something like that.

I stopped counting.  I hope I have 5 digits by now.....


Far, far more important:  50 ppp

I used to think you sensible.

Gotta look after yourself brah. Hopefully your friend makes a full recovery.

I mean, yeah. Rupert Murdoch hasn’t built a media empire by selling the truth. Kelvin MacKenzie is a fuck huge example of that.

Even when his papers do report the truth, it doesn’t necessarily mean it was come by legally. Hacking the phone of a murdered school girl is barely scratching the surface of the depravity in which his “journalists” engage.

I suppose I should ptw.

That’s what was reported by the police, according to the Beeb.

To be honest they shouldn’t be telling people that. The fact it’s been in the news for over three weeks with nothing to report is ridiculous though (which is a problem with the media, not the police. “Pretty white woman goes missing” apparently needs coverage every hour on the hour regardless of developments) which is probably why they felt the need to say those things.

People have been abusing local dignitaries and also some sort of macabre tourism is taking place also, which isn’t helping the police do their job, presumably as a consequence of the excess coverage.

Truth.

I’m personally surprised politics threads are still allowed on the forum given how they have gone in the past, particularly given the ban on rage threads and Pony threads.

Edit: the other RD I assume you’re referring to was the drive-by troll that posted contentions, contrarian points in multiple threads, rather than just sticking to one thread to pour their idiocy into.

I think we’re doing a reasonable job ourselves of arguing the points, and nobody is getting excessive in doing so, beyond wondering what RD is still doing here.

My assumption is sly attempts at moving the argument away from legitimate criticism of Russian policy and actions, but they’re not very good at it. Possibly this is a training exercise for Russian troll farms?
