“They had a similar background and outlook in other ways, too, including their north-western Sydney upbringing and a small-business mindset.”
That involvement has continued to the present day, with current federal Liberal leader Angus Taylor regularly praising the Brethren and calling out one of the church’s charities, the Rapid Relief Team, for its work in the community.
Reflecting on John Howard’s involvement with the Brethren over the course of his political career, a spokesman for the former prime minister tells The Saturday Paper that the characterisation of him in Bachelard’s book “is like a curate’s egg – it’s good in parts”.
“Many of the economic views attributed to him only evolved over time. He has constantly said that he did not bring rigid ideologic attitudes with him into parliament,” the spokesman says.
“Mr Howard adheres strongly to the view that individual Australians or groups are free to either offer or receive help from others during the course of election campaigns – provided all conduct is within the law.”
In an opinion piece published in The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald earlier this month, former Western Australian Liberal senator Linda Reynolds revealed how in the final weeks of the campaign a senior party official asked her to meet two men described as small businesspeople wanting to help. She recognised them as Brethren members and said they were seeking confidential campaign information and individual logins to Feedback, the party’s voter-contact system, so they could phone voters from their own premises.
Reynolds refused. While she was assured the party would “turn off” its involvement with the Brethren in Western Australia, she soon saw Brethren members arrive in growing numbers at pre-poll booths, briefed by people who weren’t part of the Liberal Party’s local campaign teams, making other volunteers feel uncomfortable and at times intimidated.Recommended for you
When Reynolds raised her concerns in the party room, some colleagues accused her of religious discrimination, an attack line used repeatedly by Coalition members of the Joint Standing Committee on Electoral Matters as they tried to mitigate or deflect questions to Bruce and Gareth Hales and other witnesses during other public hearings.
Even though Reynolds did not allege specific misconduct, she noted that the church’s submission to the committee inquiry denied coordinating its members while acknowledging the many Brethren volunteers “clearly were” coordinated.
“So, if the church did not co-ordinate them, who did?” Reynolds wrote.According to another Liberal moderate from New South Wales, whenever the Liberal Party turns to the Brethren, it ends up backfiring.

#^Ohořelá kávová sedlina může zvýšit pevnost betonu až o 30 procent
Australští vědci zjistili, že biochar vyrobený z kávové sedliny může při přimíchání do betonu zvýšit jeho pevnost až o 30 procent. Sedlina se zahřívá bez přístupu kyslíku při teplotě přes 350 °C, čímž vznikne uhlíkatý materiál schopný vázat se na cementovou směs. Postup by mohl omezit množství organického odpadu na skládkách i spotřebu přírodního písku při výrobě betonu. Výzkumníci zatím prověřují dlouhodobou odolnost materiálu, například vůči vodě, mrazu a opotřebení. Technologie už byla vyzkoušena na chodnících ve státě Victoria, kde pomohla využít odpad odpovídající asi 140 tisícům šálků kávy.

Life after retirement
After my retirement from the company I worked at for 50 years, I looked forward to some relaxation time and putting my feet up. My wife had other ideas... she insisted I take her to the local shopping center every day.
Like most men, I found shopping boring and preferred to get in and out.
She’s like most women - loves to browse and leaves me with endless time to fill.
Yesterday my dear wife received the following letter, from the local shopping center:
Dear Mrs. Harris,
Over the past six months, your husband has caused quite a commotion in our store.
We cannot tolerate this behavior and have been forced to ban both of you from the store.
Our complaints against your husband, Mr. Harris, are listed below and are documented by our video surveillance cameras:
June 15: Randomly placed boxes of condoms and/or pregnancy tests in other people's carts.
June 21: Took bicycles for a "test drive."
July 2: Set all the alarm clocks in Housewares to go off at 5-minute intervals.
July 7: He made a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to the women’s restroom.
July 10: Set up a valet parking sign in front of the shopping center.
July 19: Walked up to an employee and told her in an official voice: “Code 3 in Housewares. Get on it right away.”
This caused the employee to leave her assigned station and receive a reprimand from her Supervisor that in turn resulted in a union grievance, causing management to lose time; and costing the company money. We don’t have a Code 3.
August 4: Went to the Service Desk and tried to put a bag of M&Ms on layaway.
August 14: Moved a “CAUTION – WET FLOOR” sign to a carpeted area.
August 15: Set up a tent in the camping department and told children he’d invite them in if they would bring pillows and blankets from the bedding department to which twenty children obliged.
August 23: When a clerk asked if they could help him he began crying and screamed “Why can’t you people just leave me alone?” EMTs were called.
September 4: Looked right into a security camera and used it as a mirror while he picked his nose.
September 10: While handling guns in the hunting department, he asked the clerk where the antidepressants were.
September 23: Organized shopping cart races.
October 3: Darted around the store suspiciously while loudly humming the “Mission Impossible” theme.
October 6: In the auto department, he practiced his “Madonna Look” using different sizes of funnels.
October 13: Asked a clerk, while holding a box of condoms, where the fitting room was.
October 18: Hid in a clothing rack and when people browsed through, yelled “PICK ME! PICK ME!”.
October 22: When an announcement came over the loudspeaker, he assumed a fetal position and screamed “OH NO! IT’S THOSE VOICES AGAIN!”
And last, but not least:
October 23: Went into a fitting room, shut the door, waited a while; then yelled very loudly “Hey! There’s no toilet paper in here!” One of the clerks passed out.

“The law cannot, as you say, touch you,” said Holmes, unlocking and throwing open the door, “yet there never was a man who deserved punishment more. If the young lady has a brother or a friend, he ought to lay a whip across your shoulders. By Jove!” he continued, flushing up at the sight of the bitter sneer upon the man’s face, “it is not part of my duties to my client, but here’s a hunting crop handy, and I think I shall just treat myself to —”
He took two swift steps to the whip, but before he could grasp it there was a wild clatter of steps upon the stairs, the heavy hall door banged, and from the window we could see Mr. James Windibank running at the top of his speed down the road.
“There’s a cold-blooded scoundrel!” said Holmes, laughing, as he threw himself down into his chair once more. “That fellow will rise from crime to crime until he does something very bad, and ends on a gallows.”Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930) British writer and physician

Halloween Horror Movie Review: Carrie (1976)
Title: Carrie
Release Date: November 3, 1976
Director: Brian De Palma
Production Company: Red Bank Films
Main Cast:- Sissy Spacek as Carrie White
- Piper Laurie as Margaret White
- Amy Irving as Sue Snell
- William Katt as Tommy Ross
- John Travolta as Billy Nolan
- Nancy Allen as Chris Hargensen
- Betty Buckley as Miss Collins
- P. J. Soles as Norma Watson
- Priscilla Pointer as Mrs. Snell
- Sydney Lassick as Mr. Fromm
- Stefan Gierasch as Mr. Morton
Synopsis (via Letterboxd):
Withdrawn and sensitive teenager Carrie White faces bullying from classmates and abuse from her fanatically pious mother. When she begins to suspect that she has supernatural powers, things take a dark and violent turn.
My Thoughts:
I had made it this far in life without ever reading Carrie or seeing any of its adaptations in movies, TV, or even the musical! And yet, Carrie is so steeped in the cultural milieu that the story is nonetheless familiar. There were some surprises. For example, I had no idea that the cast is stacked with familiar actors such as Amy Irving, Nancy Allen, William Katt, P. J. Soles, and John Travolta.
The less pleasant surprise is that the opening scene is set in a locker room where purportedly high school girls cavort around fully nude. It’s really creepy and gross and sets a bad tone for a movie that’s all over the place. Sometimes it’s a teen sex comedy, sometimes it’s an after school special, and sometimes it’s stealing the Psycho sting for unearned jump scares. At its heart, this is a movie about abuse – Carrie’s mother justifying physical and psychological torture with Christianity, the bullying by the popular girls, Billy hitting Chris, and even the “nice” teacher Miss Collins drilling and slapping students.
There are two things I liked about this movie. First, there’s Sissy Spacek’s performance, expertly capturing the shyness, ignorance, and off-putting nature of the lead character. I like how she researches her telekinetic power at the library, and gains confidence to assert herself against her mother. And no matter how evil her mother gets, she still craves her physical affection and approval.
The other good thing is the prom scene which is familiar to those who haven’t even watched the movie. The movement of the camera around Carrie and Tommy as they seem to be actually connecting is wonderful, as is the ominous lead to the bucket of blood. And of course Carrie’s revenge filmed in split screen as she walks through the flames is iconic. I guess I just wish the rest of the movie had been filmed so artfully and given support to the underlying themes instead of wooden dialogue, clumsy tonal changes, and vulgar titillation.

Who owns your phone, when you buy a new one? Easy answer would be: the person who bought the phone. But that's not completely true.
In UK we see that people who bought a new iPhone had to verify their age using their ID card to get unrestricted access to the device as David Bombal explains in this short.
We see that baselines are shifting, slowly. Once we are used to it, the next step is about to follow. Today it's age verification. C'mon, it doesn't hurt. It's done very quick, you only need your ID, once....
But what's next? The digital wallet is just around the corner. It will make everything so much easier, for everyone – including those who want to monitor us.

“The Evil” (1978) – Review
Hello again, my lovely Gorehounds and Horrorfiends,
3FMC is here with you with more fun and laughs as we review horror films from yesterday, today, and tomorrow. Today, we decided to wait until the nice day was over, then it was pizza time, and some Horror to scare the mozzarella out of us. As we are drawing closer to the 31st, and All Hallow’s Eve, we have cranked up our Horror viewing by a factor of 5. If we had cranked it up to 10, we would not be going to work, and that would be a big problem. Anyways, we spun our Wheel of Death to see what it landed on…BTW, we made a cute little wheel that works like the Wheel of Fortune, that we spin to pick Horror films when we cant decide. It has the subclasses of:
- Monster Movie (includes Vampires, Werewolves, Alien Creatures, Zombies, etc)
- Haunted House
- Slashers
- Ghosts
- Witches
- Sci-Fi Horror
It landed on “Haunted House” so we pulled one from the drawer that we haven’t reviewed on here yet. That would 1978’s The Evil, starring Richard Crenna, Joanna Pettet, and the late great, Victor Buono.
Premise: A psychiatrist, Dr. Arnold (Crenna) purchases an abandoned mansion that he plans to turn into a drug rehab. He then has some friends come in and help him clean up the place to get it in order. Apparently, the house was previously owned by a Civil War General, who had the home built of some sort of hot springs. Then, when working in the basement, Dr. Arnold finds a trapdoor that he opens and unwittingly releases a nasty spirit which traps all of them in the house. Dr. Arnold later realizes that the trapdoor is actually a doorway to Hell (at least it wasn’t a well in the basement like another house located in Amityville).
Discussion: Once the spirits are released from the basement, the body count starts to soar, and people are killed in some gruesome ways. All in all, this was a very effective, and in a lot of ways, underrated haunted house horror film. Strong performances from Crenna and Buono, set this one apart from many of the other Haunted House films of the genre. Buono’s portrayal of The Devil was particularly good, and frightening. We definitely think that this one is in the Top 5 best Haunted House films of the 1970s and 1980s. Not Poltergeist-level special effects, but definitely more psychological in nature, and an effective one at that. Give it a try.
” I feed on 3FMC Reviews, Mr. Arnold.”Rating: 4 doors to Hell out of 5.

-------------------------------------------------TITLE: Limiting sugar in the first 1,000 days of life is associated with later dementia onset, study finds
Limiting exposure to added sugar in the womb and during the first two years of life is associated with a lower risk of developing dementia decades later, according to a new study published in Neurology. By examining adults born around the end of post-World War II food rationing in the United Kingdom, researchers found that early-life sugar restriction corresponded with delayed dementia onset, healthier brain structure, and better scores on some cognitive tests in their 60s. The findings suggest that nutritional conditions during the earliest stages of human development may play a lasting role in how the brain ages.
Dementia is an umbrella term for progressive neurological conditions that impair memory, thinking, and the ability to perform everyday activities. The most common form is Alzheimer’s disease, which involves the gradual breakdown of brain cells and the buildup of abnormal proteins, followed by vascular dementia, which occurs when reduced blood flow damages brain tissue. Although lifestyle habits in middle and old age are well-known factors in cognitive decline, growing evidence points to the importance of the “first 1,000 days” of life, the developmental window spanning from conception to a child’s second birthday.
During this early period, the brain undergoes rapid growth, forming neural connections and building the structural foundation for lifelong thinking and memory. High sugar intake during pregnancy and infancy may disrupt this process by triggering inflammation or interfering with how cells respond to insulin. For instance, research covered by PsyPost in 2016 indicated that rats fed sugary drinks early in life developed changes in the hippocampus, a seahorse-shaped brain region essential for memory, that resembled the biological effects of early-life stress. In humans, observational studies have similarly linked higher maternal sugar consumption during pregnancy and breastfeeding to altered brain tissue organization in newborns and slightly lower cognitive scores in young children.
Studying how infant diets affect human brain aging is difficult because tracking people from birth into their 70s rarely happens in controlled experiments. To overcome this challenge, scientists have turned to a historical policy shift in the United Kingdom: the end of wartime sugar rationing. Introduced in July 1942 during World War II, the rationing system strictly limited added sugar and sweets to levels comparable to modern dietary guidelines while keeping overall calories and basic nutrients sufficient, unlike historical famines that caused severe starvation. When the British government abruptly ended sugar rationing in September 1953, national sugar consumption jumped by more than 50 percent, even as total calorie intake rose by only about 5 percent and other food groups remained relatively stable.
Researchers have used this sudden dietary shift to examine how early sugar limits relate to adult health, starting with a 2024 study by another team that linked rationing exposure during the first 1,000 days to lower adult rates of type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure. Extending this approach to respiratory health, a study covered by PsyPost in 2025 found that rationing exposure during pregnancy and infancy was tied to better adult lung capacity and lower rates of asthma. In the realm of mental health, a 2026 cohort study of British adults found that experiencing sugar rationing across the first 1,000 days of life was associated with a reduced preference for sweet foods and a lower risk of adult depression and anxiety.
Building on this line of inquiry, the new study was led by Jiazhen Zheng, an assistant professor at the School of Life and Health Sciences at Shenzhen University of Advanced Technology in China, who also led the 2025 lung-health study. Zheng conducted the research at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou) alongside co-corresponding author S. W. Ricky Lee of the same institution and their colleagues, examining whether early sugar restriction also relates to long-term dementia risk, brain structure, and cognitive ability in older age.
“While growing evidence suggests that early-life nutrition can shape long-term health, remarkably little is known about whether sugar exposure during this period is associated with dementia many decades later,” Zheng told PsyPost. “We were particularly interested in addressing this knowledge gap because most dementia prevention research focuses on risk factors in middle and older age. The end of sugar rationing in the United Kingdom in September 1953 provided a unique natural experiment to investigate this question.”
The researchers analyzed data from the UK Biobank, a large health study that recruited middle-aged and older British adults between 2006 and 2010. Starting with 74,213 participants born between 1951 and 1956, the team excluded 6,582 people born outside the United Kingdom, 2,424 from multiple births such as twins or triplets, 79 adoptees, 208 people already diagnosed with dementia at recruitment, and 108 who withdrew from the project. This left a final sample of 64,737 adults who were an average of 54.6 years old at enrollment, 56.4 percent of whom were women.
Using each person’s birth date relative to the September 1953 policy change, the authors sorted participants into groups reflecting how long they experienced sugar rationing during their first 1,000 days from conception. In total, 40,963 participants experienced rationing: 10,682 were exposed in the womb only, 15,025 were exposed in the womb plus up to one year after birth, and 15,256 were exposed in the womb plus one to two years after birth. The remaining 23,774 participants were born after July 1, 1954, meaning they were conceived after rationing ended and grew up in an environment of unrestricted sugar.
The team tracked hospital admissions and death registries through July 1, 2023, to identify new diagnoses of all-cause dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, and vascular dementia. To account for other differences between the groups, the statistical models controlled for age, sex, race, birthplace, birth month, inflation-adjusted food prices, average national fat intake at birth, maternal smoking, breastfeeding, and parental dementia history. The researchers also adjusted for adult household income, neighborhood socioeconomic status, smoking, alcohol consumption, physical activity, and chronic illnesses such as heart, kidney, and liver disease.
In addition to tracking dementia diagnoses, the authors examined a subset of more than 7,500 participants who underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) brain scans at an average age of 61.8 years, alongside roughly 6,400 to 20,600 participants who completed computerized cognitive assessments. These brain scans measured total brain volume, gray matter (the outer layer of brain tissue rich in nerve cell bodies), white matter (the deeper nerve fibers that connect different brain regions), the hippocampus, and white matter hyperintensities, which are bright spots on a scan that indicate small blood vessel damage and tissue wear.
Building on the 2024 research linking rationing to metabolic and vascular health, the team also tested whether adult type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure explained the link between early sugar restriction and dementia, and they checked two conditions considered unlikely to be affected by early sugar intake, type 1 diabetes and melanoma (a form of skin cancer), as negative controls.
Over the follow-up period, 504 out of 23,774 unexposed participants (about 2.1 percent) were diagnosed with all-cause dementia, including 227 cases of Alzheimer’s disease (about 1.0 percent) and 178 cases of vascular dementia (about 0.75 percent). In raw numbers, the rationed groups had slightly higher dementia rates, largely because they were born earlier and were more than two years older on average than the unexposed group, with 251 dementia cases among the 10,682 people rationed only in the womb (about 2.3 percent), 388 cases among the 15,025 people rationed through age one (about 2.6 percent), and 456 cases among the 15,256 people rationed for one to two years (about 3.0 percent). Once the researchers adjusted for age and other background variables, the rationed groups showed a lower risk of developing dementia at any given age, though the association for those exposed only in the womb was smaller and not statistically significant.
Compared with adults who never experienced rationing, those exposed to sugar rationing in the womb plus their first year of life had a 21 percent lower hazard (the rate at which new cases appear at a given age) of developing all-cause dementia and a 23 percent lower hazard of developing Alzheimer’s disease. The association was slightly stronger for those exposed in the womb plus one to two years after birth, who showed a 23 percent lower hazard of all-cause dementia and a 28 percent lower hazard of Alzheimer’s disease.
For vascular dementia, the estimates pointed in a similar direction, though the results were not statistically significant. Looking at the timing of diagnoses, experiencing rationing from conception through ages one to two was associated with delaying the onset of all-cause dementia by 2.55 years, Alzheimer’s disease by 2.87 years, and vascular dementia by 2.49 years.
“The magnitude of the associations was particularly noteworthy,” Zheng said. “These are population-level estimates rather than predictions for any individual, but even modest shifts in dementia occurrence could have meaningful public health implications given the growing global burden of the disease.”
The results were less robust in one additional analysis. When the researchers accounted for the possibility that participants would die of other causes before developing dementia, rationing exposure was still linked to a roughly 15 percent lower likelihood of all-cause dementia, but the associations with Alzheimer’s disease and vascular dementia were no longer statistically significant.
The link between early sugar rationing and dementia was stronger in women than in men, which the authors noted might relate to biological differences in how female neural circuits respond to early nutritional environments. The results held steady regardless of whether participants carried genetic variants of the apolipoprotein E gene that heighten Alzheimer’s risk. Mediation analyses indicated that lower rates of adult type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure accounted for 18.0 percent and 11.6 percent of the association, respectively, or 25.5 percent when combined, while birth weight accounted for just 2.7 percent. As expected, rationing exposure showed no association with type 1 diabetes or melanoma, and the primary dementia patterns were supported by a validation analysis in an independent British aging study, with an American cohort serving as a comparison group.
The brain imaging and cognitive test results aligned with the clinical dementia findings. Compared with the unexposed group, participants who experienced early-life sugar rationing had larger total gray matter volumes, averaging 618.9 cubic centimeters versus 618.5 cubic centimeters (an adjusted increase of 3.27 cubic centimeters), and smaller volumes of white matter hyperintensities, averaging 3.72 cubic centimeters versus 3.84 cubic centimeters (an adjusted reduction of 0.64 cubic centimeters).
Rationed participants also performed better on tests of complex processing speed, verbal and numerical reasoning, nonverbal pattern reasoning, and a timed test of visual attention that involves connecting numbered circles in order. Differences in total brain volume, white matter volume, hippocampal size, working memory, verbal memory, and a harder version of the connect-the-dots test that requires switching between numbers and letters were not statistically significant. These differences were modest: the gray matter difference amounted to about half a percent of total gray matter volume, and the cognitive differences were similarly small.
“What struck us most was how strongly early-life nutritional exposure appeared to be associated with brain health more than half a century later,” Zheng explained. “Beyond dementia diagnoses, we also observed favorable differences in brain MRI measurements, including greater gray matter volume and fewer white matter hyperintensities, alongside better performance on certain cognitive tests. The convergence of these findings across clinical, structural, and cognitive outcomes was especially interesting and suggested that the associations might reflect broader processes of brain aging.”
These results are consistent with research covered by PsyPost in December 2025, which tracked broad diet quality across the lifespan starting at age four rather than isolating sugar restriction during the first 1,000 days of life, and similarly found that healthier early nutritional habits were associated with better cognitive performance and a lower risk of late-life dementia. They also align with another study covered by PsyPost in November 2025, which examined how chronic sugar consumption caused memory impairment and Alzheimer’s-related brain pathology in adult rats rather than how early-life sugar restriction affects long-term dementia risk in humans, yet similarly linked high sugar exposure to neurodegenerative decline.
“Our findings suggest that the nutritional environment during pregnancy and early childhood may have consequences for brain health that extend across an entire lifetime,” Zheng told PsyPost. “The key message is not that people should eliminate sugar entirely, but rather that limiting excessive added sugar during these sensitive developmental periods may be beneficial. Importantly, our findings demonstrate associations, not definitive causation.”
As with all research, there are some caveats to consider when interpreting these findings. Because this was an observational study that relied on birth dates during a historical policy change, the researchers did not have direct measurements of how much sugar individual pregnant mothers or infants actually consumed. Although national surveys confirm that household sugar purchases surged right after September 1953, personal eating habits within both the rationed and unrationed groups likely varied from family to family. Because exposure was determined entirely by birth date, the rationed participants were also older, so the findings depend on statistical adjustments for age; the authors checked this by confirming that dementia risk did not drift among never-rationed participants born at different times after the policy ended.
“One important distinction is that our study does not prove that reducing sugar intake in infancy directly prevents dementia,” Zheng noted. “Other dietary, social, or environmental differences associated with the rationing period may also have influenced the results. Furthermore, our findings should not be interpreted as advocating extremely restrictive diets during pregnancy or infancy; adequate and balanced nutrition remains essential for healthy development.”
Another consideration is the age and makeup of the study population. Because participants were born in the early to mid-1950s, they were only in their late 60s and early 70s by the end of the tracking period in 2023, meaning the study primarily captured relatively early cases of dementia rather than diagnoses occurring in the 80s and 90s.
In addition, the UK Biobank consists of volunteers who survived into middle age and tend to be healthier, wealthier, and predominantly white (over 96 percent of this sample), which may limit how well the findings apply to more diverse or disadvantaged populations. The authors suggest that future randomized trials testing practical nutritional counseling to limit added sugars during pregnancy and infancy could help establish how early dietary habits shape brain development and long-term cognitive resilience.
“We hope to better understand the biological mechanisms linking early-life nutrition with brain aging and neurodegenerative diseases,” Zheng said. “In this study, type 2 diabetes and hypertension together statistically accounted for approximately one-quarter of the observed association, suggesting that metabolic and vascular health may play a role. Future research should examine additional biological pathways, clarify the most sensitive developmental windows, and determine whether these findings can be replicated in other populations with more detailed dietary information. Ultimately, we hope this work will help inform evidence-based nutritional recommendations across the life course.”
“I believe one of the broader implications of our work is that dementia prevention may need to be considered from a much earlier life-course perspective,” Zheng added. “We often think of dementia as a disease of old age, but some of the factors associated with vulnerability or resilience may originate decades before symptoms appear. Understanding these early influences could open new opportunities for preventive research and public health strategies.”
The study, “Association of Sugar Restriction in Utero Through Age 2 Years on Dementia Risk Later in Life,” was authored by Jiazhen Zheng, Gregory Y.H. Lip, Zhuoni Zhang, and S. W. Ricky Lee.

CW: satire of terfism, defacation
Gyns tell me I'm not crazy here. No one I've told about this so far has sympathized with me, but I know radblr is more reasonable than the outside world. I'm really afraid of moids going into the sewer and eating my shit and drinking my urine. Everyone makes fun of me for this and tells me why I should care when it's bodily waste anyways, but it's my bodily waste and I don't want moids putting it in their mouth. We can all agree that's perfectly reasonable right? Right? We all know how moids can be about women and we all know that they actually do this. So what is the problem if I do it first? I've been reading articles about it and unless you have parasites it's actually not that bad for you and can actually help you absorb nutrients you may have missed before. The only problem is if you ONLY eat and drink your own piss and shit and you get nutrient defeciencies. Everyone I've told about this seems completely disgusted by it and I'm at my wits end. I just want my FEMALE piss and shit to stay pure of moid saliva. Why are women treated like this for protecting ourselves? Why is it so wrong when I do it but not when MEN do it? Sisters, I need your counsel. I haven't flushed in four days and I need advice. I know this sounds extreme but I have my reasons. There's been documentation—studies, personal accounts, patterns—that moids and TRA activists have established colonies in the sewer systems. They subsist on what we discard. Every time you flush, you're feeding them. You're giving them sustenance, allowing them to maintain their presence in the infrastructure that connects us all. My toilet is reaching a critical point. I can smell it. I know I need to do something but I can't bring myself to push that lever. It feels like... surrender. Like contamination. _____________________________________________________________________________________________ can i be a political lesbian if im super straight? i have never experienced any attraction to women and i find the thought of the female body disgusting. in fact i hate my own body and wish i could be a man. but then id be gay. i have dated men for like 15+ years and after spending so long dating men and being mistreated i feel like i want to claim political lesbianism. maybe i could be a man and force myself to be straight and claim political lesbianism. could this maybe work for me? what kinds of activism should i get involved in to become a political lesbian? heres a thing that happened to some friends of mine. was walking down the street talking about the bears game and a bus pulled up and a bunch of white women with short hair and bad plastic surgery came out with baseball bats. they all had shirts that sayed 'down with trans'. i(22 afab wombynly wombyn) was able to hold them off while my friend(19 amab mynly myn) ran away. bareley escaped aita for accidentally harrassing an afab? was at the grocery store and had to used the restroom. damn urinary leash amirite? i was so terrified of seeing an transexual but had no choice becuz i(35 wombynly afab) had to pee.as i was washing mine hands a person came in. i could tell by their jawline and cheekbones that they were obviously an amab. so i stood in the door and made them pull down their pandts. and they said no so they started walking away but i kept following them demanding to see what was in his pants. by the time we reached the checkout it was really statring to cause quite a scene which was very triggering to my sex based oppression. i followed him out to his car and he turned and looked at me and said "dude im a butch stop being wierd" in a perfect femininely wombynly afab voice. aita? hi yall. i was amab and transitioned 5 years ago. just a normal straight girl, right? couple of months ago i figured i would try reclaiming my masculinity. puicked up some boxers and cargo shorts. instand raging boaner. now i cant ger off without thinking of hot bear for bear frotting. am i still trurrans? How do you feel about male exclusive radical misandrists? yeah i was born a man and i hate it this cock tortures me evry minute of my existence if i even think about being a man i break down. And due to my unfortunate attraction to men, i experience sex based oppression due to being a bottom. i sometimes wish i could transision and be a political lesbian but then i would just be a male invading women's spaces. so i coined a term to describe me: male exclusive radical misandrist. because if i am going to be oppressed for being a male i want to be the one opressing me. its basic bodily autonomy. only we can oppress ourselves. #moids dni #foids dni #kill all men #kill all women #oppress yourself responsibly #liberate the noone #righttooppress harrassing random trans women will not brign the downfall of gender. indiviual action will never bring any revolution. what we need is collective action. so stop trying to do anything about gender until the vanguard party has established a positon for the overthrow of gender. if you disagree your just a lifestylist reactionary. __________________________________________________________________________________________ and to my immune system: if you want to drown yourself in snot and mucuous that's your right but would you kindly do me a favor and LEAVE ME THE FUCK OUT OF IT. and to my subconscious mind: need i remind you that your job responsibilities cover automated systems like breathing and circulation, not fucking keeping me awake all fucking night? kindly focus on attending to your job description instead of insane extracuriculars? I need you to remember that we are a team here and your actions affect everyone. dear James in engineering, I cant believe you still haven't solved the problems with the power couplings. I know this may be hard to understand but you need to turn the set screws to the OFF position to turn OFF the flow restrictors and you need to turn the set screws to the ON position to ENABLE the flow restrictors. Kindly, learn to do your damn job. dear administration, I appreciate all of your hard work in finding staff in these difficult times but I need clarification on one thing: where do you find all of these morons? You have sent us five new employees in the last two weeks and only one of them knew what a philips head was. We cannot be spending what little time we are given to train new employees in basic skills. Might i recommend hiring people who demonstrate technical proficiency instead of your fuckup nephew? heres something i actually sent my local news station: Hello Andrea, I apologize if this is not your department but I cannot find a contact for the meteorology department. My complaint is quite simple: I ask that weather forecasters please refrain from inserting their personal judgements and opinions into the broadcasting. I get that some people might appreciate warmer weather but this opinion is not universal and many of us find it quite shocking to see 80 degree highs in late october described as "nice", "mild", or "fair". If you would like to hear my opinion on the matter, personally I find this heat oppressive as I am someone who spends a good deal of time outside engaged in hard physical activity. In fact, I would go so far as to say that if you enjoy this weather you might consider relocating to an environment with a more suitable climate, such as the fucking sahara desert. And frankly, the Sahara might be an improvement: at least I could manage the heat in a dry climate. Thank you for listening to my rant and have a blessed day, Foob P.S. Anything you could do to keep the temperatures in the mid 50s would be greatly appreciated on my end. dear Administration, While I appreciate that finding competent staff is difficult sometimes and that you have been able to find teaching staff with high levels of technical proficiency, several of your staff have been lacking in professionalism and pedagogy. I have actually had teachers cancel class with 5 minutes notice, on multiple occassions, so much so that it in fact became a recurring pattern with them. As if that wasnt bad enough, these are often the same teachers who's prefered teaching style seems to be blindly reading off their powerpoint without so much as looking at the class, much less checking for understanding. I ask that in the future you please hire teachers who actually show up to class and actually know how to teach. Best regards, A concerned student ps. and dont even get me started with your online offerings. in a live classroom setting, a student can at least raise their hand and steer an incompetent teacher. but your online classes are just underpaid staff reading off thier lecture notes with no furter explanation beyond basic concepts. I might as well watch a youtube video, that would be a better value. For $1000 dollars a class, this is a total ripoff and perhaps even a full on scam. fuck you. Whoever is in charge of hiring at this place is a real piece of work. I get that there are others who may have better qualifications but to interview a candidate and not even send a rejection email, much less useful feedback, demostrates a level of profesionalism that would embarrass a tavern wench. These institutions, and society as a whole, would benefit greatly from giving people a fighting fucking chance. Dear hiring manager, I have an important formal inquiry(injury): on your website you have multiple listings for so called entry level positions with a minimum qualification of 5 years of experience. This leaves me wondering how one is supposed to get 5 years of experience if all of the so called entry level positions require 5 years of experience. This is so prevasive accross your job listings that I suspect I might have a decent case with the Equal Opportunity Employment Commission, considering that these requirements absolutely have a discriminatory impact against people who are new to the job market. So I guess my question is this: do you actually hire human beings or only bots? Also, what the fuck are you smoking? This is a job which entails mostly filing sales reports, which is not exactly a rare or difficult skill. Stop acting like corporate bureaucracy is a skilled trade: it isn't. Dear hr, It has come to my attention that the tone of my recent emails is "problematic and unprofessional". While I can appreciate that others may have trouble with the self awareness necessary to address issues raised in good faith, I must suggest that my coworkers stop being such a bunch of little bitches. Thank you for your attention to this matter. hello hr representative, I am writing to inform you of several concerns i have with this companies hr department. While I do appreciate the structure whereby advancement depends on undying loyalty to the establishment and whereby power is exercised both for its own sake and to keep underlings in check, I must say that you lack the ability to be gangsta unless you have the full backing of the entire institution. Kindly, if you have a beef with me, settle it like grown men instead of hiding behind your lackeys. Also, you claim to have meaningful power over me but we both know that you would be nothing without the backing of your institution. Once again, lets drop the bullshit and settle this. Best regards, Mr. Dick Head __________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Have you owned a month-end close and an annual audit relationship for a fund or investment vehicle, without a supervisor above you? I ride a bicycle everywhere and if i cant get there on a bike i simply ride there anyway. i ride in the middle of the road, often dodging traffic in the oncoming lane. Its like dancing its all about your footwork, timing and spacing. I know this sounds dangerous but you need to know something about me: dick does not fuck up. If there is a collision it is your fucking fault for being in my fucking way. Dont you know pedestrians have the right of way? Do you have five or more years of accounting experience, including fund or investment-vehicle accounting (private credit, debt fund, or real estate fund)? Yeah ive been riding my bike for like 8 years now at this point and let me tell you i have put a lot of work into it. every goddamned time i go out to ride it something needs adjusting, be it the brake cables, shifter cable, tire pressure, or seat position. and thats just the tip of the iceberg. i have replaced the drivetrain 5 seperate times including completely reengineering it at least twice. and if theres even a bit of rain in the forecast i have to be prepared to replace everything cuz nothing is designed to handle a bit of moisture much less the kind of loamy mud i subject it to. This is an independent contractor (1099) engagement on a fixed monthly retainer, roughly 30 hours in a typical month. Does that structure work for you? the only structure that works for me is completely egalitarian horizontal structures. anything else concentrates power that will eventually be abused. and the structure of most corporations, including yours, more closely resembles monarchal fuedalism than any form of democracy, much less free association. and to be frank monarchal fuedalism would be a fucking improvement., at least under monarchal feudalism i have the dignity of providing for my own and my community's survival by contributing to the grain store instead of relying on opaque and inhuman institutions for the "privilege" of keeping a roof over my head. fuck you. What monthly retainer would you propose for the scope described in the posting? i aint paying you no goddamn monthly fee for the "privilege" of selling you my labor. fuck you.

#IVoted 🇺🇸
I turned my "absentee" ballot in to my township office on Thursday. I received a #voting confirmation email from the Michigan Secretary of State on Friday. Michigan in-person early voting started on Saturday. Today, I took my wife for in-person voting so she could show our kids the process. A fine time was had by all. Plus, we got stickers. -

Hm der alte 90`ger Rechner ist ne harte Nuss. Ich muss die Festplatte wohl nochmal ausbauen und extern probieren da irgendwie alles aktuell daran scheitert sie per FDISK & FORMAT einzustellen. Hardwaregemäcker gibt es jedoch nicht dennoch scheint schreiben nicht zu klappen.
Aktuell wirft er immer einen VBR Fehler taus 🙄 .
