I’m being downvoted for trying to be helpful? I don’t understand this community’s ratioing.
Did I do something wrong by posting this video?
I actually listened to it as a podcast: https://overcast.fm/+B6dehbs4I. I didn’t produce this video so cannot provide a transcript.
If it’s an important topic, this is a relevant video.
This is a very thoughtful discussion of “incels” and the unique challenges men face today.
It addresses male loneliness and the colossal changes in society—in terms of economics and sexuality—that have greatly affected men over the last few generations.
It also highlights many of the ways in which incel identity is misunderstood, presenting the phenomenon in a wider context—allowing space for greater understanding and empathy.
Benjamin Franklin was 70 when he signed the Declaration of Independence, the oldest person to do so.
If that’s a fact Americans might see as meaningful, the US could cap taking office as President if over 70 on election day (effectively 74 is oldest at end of term), same for the House (oldest 72), Senate (oldest 76), and the Supreme Court… just force retirement at 70 instead of death.
So much for liberté.
“Paintings about changing people’s perspectives by using satirical humour as a commentary on power”—and her reaction is to use power and influence to see that her demands are met. Seems like exquisite commentary to me.
Outside government? The UK had MEPs and potentially huge influence in the EU. It chose not to be a constructive partner, then complained when things didn’t go their way.
We’ll discuss the labour shortage and crippling of the health service another time, I guess.

I’d be concerned too if I’d put all of my space eggs in SpaceX/Musk’s basket.
A healthy democracy for sure.
If they can no longer be supported they should be made open source.
Absolutely. So many sensible sized European cars aren’t sold in the US because bullshit market research says small car bad big truck good.
They often boast of being the “party of business,” but never the party of labour. Seems this council is simply taking Starmer’s lead.
What a terrible headline.
Fixed it: Murderer whose trial riveted the nation.
You can give a child ice cream for good behavior.
Reconciliation cannot work if a people is humiliated (even as the result of authoritarian leaders).
I’m not at all suggesting compromise with regard to occupied territories, I’m saying that Russians have been lead to believe they have been humiliated and betrayed by the West on countless occasions, and in the case that the illegal occupation of Ukrainian territories comes to and end, and the Putin regime falls, these assets could be returned to the Russian people to help rebuild a state hollowed out by its dictatorship. The West can support Ukraine with or without these funds.
We will have to embrace a fragile Russian people post-Putin. That, or create space for his authoritarian successors.
I appreciate why I have been downvoted above, but I’m simply asking what role these assets could play if returned with conditions to a post-Putin regime. I don’t consider that acquiescence, or compromising Ukrainian sovereignty.
This sounds great at first, but I do wonder how this could affect Europe’s standing with a post-Putin Russia. Frozen assets are a bargaining chip only so long as they are frozen and not permanently confiscated.
In the best case scenario Putin is gone and the EU can unfreeze these assets with conditions to be met by a new Russian administration. Worst case scenario, permanent confiscation shows Putin is the Russian elite’s only hope.
I’m not usually this pragmatic, so I’d be happy to be wrong about this.
UK did those tourists a favour.
Wouldn’t adding a cable and avoiding the environmental impact of batteries be better? In some countries lawn equipment has been electric but connected to an outlet for decades.
