I follow a bunch of science AND gender writers/tweeters/researchers on Twitter so this is All Over My Feed last two days and there are loads of absolutely terrible takes but definitely my least favourite is Economics Bro being like “uhhh this can’t be true because pharma companies want to make money? so obvs they…

Seriously. When you lose a major market segment, what do you do? Look for a new market segment.

It’s safe to say JKR’s a bit of a mixed bag, persona- and public-statement-wise. But surely she is allowed to impose consequences on someone who stole from her, and I don’t think “she has so much money, who cares about a measly five figures and a few cats” is a valid argument. IF it happened, it’s a violation of…

What is he supposed to “abdicate” from? He is not the king, and holds no official office. His brother, Philippe, is the king. Prince Laurent is twelfth in the line of succession.

I grew up in the economically depressed region of Belgium, Charleroi, wallonia, (think Detroit), and this is the first of I’ve heard of Belgium being at risk of falling apart....

AN INSULT TO BELGIAN FRITES.

Pigs will fly before Belgium falls apart and the king is just a joke for most Clemish people. No big deal! I think it’s actually a wonder that Big Phil even knows about the Burger King ads....

Yeah, it’s interesting. When this started I couldn’t believe it. Putting soldiers in the streets seemed like a border crossed. But the strange thing is- You realize they are just human being doing their jobs, and in the end I watch for the police more, because they can fine me for jaywalking and these boys in green…

I’m sorry that the public education system has failed you so thoroughly.

Actually, it’s about ethics in gaming journalism.

This is absolutely amazing. Honestly, a great work, I really found it fascinating. Love this line, which made me almost spit out water from laughing:

The death toll is up to 50 now according to the BBC. They targeted families celebrating Easter in a park. I cannot concieve of anyone no matter how fanatical they are about their cause thinking that this is any way acceptable. So utterly wrong. Thoughts with all those affected by this.

“It is terrifying to be somewhere and not know if you’re safe and what’s happening.”- spot on. I live in Brussels. I was here during the November lockdown, when the whole thing had an air of hilarity. People were tweeting cats to avoid giving the bad guys info. But there was still that feeling of “but we’ll be okay,…

My biggest fantasy is that he wins the republican nomination handily, then says such ridiculous things in the primary that hillary wins in a landslide, and then after he loses says “yeah, i just thought she should be president so I made up the most ridiculous things I could. Republicans are idiots for believing me.”

Calling the guy who just demanded the families of his enemies to be murdered a “relative moderate” should really tell you everything you need to know about american politics.

This is an excellent point. Trump says some ridiculously stupid things, and there is a smack of fascism in some of that stuff, but the guy overall is relatively moderate. Cruz is a fucking nut job. All I needed to see the other day was Trump to admit that he wouldn’t let sick people die in the streets without medical…

6 Dozen Moms In Lifeless Marriages That Aren’t Divorced Yet Because When You Make A Commitment To God You Keep It And Besides It’s Better For The Kids’ Sake

The point in my life where I feel so old I have absolutely no idea who this is someone change my bedpan please.

This can’t die soon enough. To both “Damn Daniel” and swatting.
