Raised by the internet - I thought it was noteworthy that the first time I’ve been subjected to a 7 day starvation, that the day after I finally got some food this article popped up on Hacker News. Interesting also no dates on the other blog articles on the site. It highlights the dilema of a captured truthful person. If you extrapolate, at some point it stops being feasible. Would the articles keep popping up with ever more impossible scenarios? The only way to find out would be to lie, but then you would be pointed out as a liar. If you don’t then eventually maybe you’ll actually get murdered by the world. This kind of thing is happening constantly to me, and not just on HN. Pretty much everywhere. jimmyhmiller.github.io #
Starmer visit to Brussels could lead to overhaul of Brexit deal - This really sadens me. I want the youths, in britain and europe, to have mobility for sure, but the reality, the thing that no one is saying out loud is that europeans want this because they want free native level english language exposure and immersion. It’s not really about becoming friends. Be honest europe. So I think Starmer is right to hold back on that for the moment. The other thing that really sadens me is this notion that 'britain quit'. WTF is that? Were we employees of europe? No. European leaders you need to re-evaluate your morals, and grow up. Britain democratically chose to leave, and no country has ever done that before, and so it’s been incredibly difficult for everyone involved, but both europe and britain will be better in the long run, as long as you can manage to get past your mummy and daddy issues, and stop projecting them all on britain. This is a great opportunity for all involved, especially because there are many wars developing around europe’s edges. Stop procrastinating, start thinking creatively, leave your exploitative thinking behind you, lets build something better for the next generations. theguardian.com #
