So what you’re saying is that they (the city) treated it as a medical problem and not a law enforcement problem. Now you’re seeing fewer deaths and better outcomes for addicts who clearly need help. All they need to do now is work on the mental health issues to treat homelessness and addiction and then gain societal profit. It’s like there is a kinda of logic to treating people with empathy and respect results in better outcomes…

If he’s made himself the only validator in Perimeter then he may well get the last laugh in death.

I was in a large open plan office a decade ago with a density clearly higher than the 3 cubicles in the toilet facilities could handle. Somebody with little regard for basic human decency, murdered the shit fairy and their family in two of the 3 cubicles. Words cannot describe the scene that greeted a prospective cubicle user. Imagine 300kg black forest gateaux with pieces of corn distributed throughout being put through a wood chipper. It was quite frankly both terrifyingly grotesque and strangely skillful. I called property services who to their credit promptly sent up somebody to investigate. I saw them enter, loudly say “Fuck their mother in the arse!” and leave dry heaving into their cleaning cart. Photos were taken and emailed around to all male employees stating that the “…rancid fecal matter will be genetically tested to determine age, race and dietary preference of the individual involved!!!” Total bullshit of course, funny as hell though. We had our suspects but nobody fess’d up. I faked having a colostomy bag after that just so I could use the ambulant toilets. But that’s a story for another time.

So far, soooo good.

Yes. You are correct. On reflection I should have put quotes around it as it was intented to convey that but not actually imply that it was the case. It is good you called it out.

What source can you cite that shows that children in poverty primarily source their calories from soft drinks/soda and now will be at greater risk of nutritional deficit specifically as a result of this tax?

Food poverty is clearly related to cost of living issues and social inequity all greatly exacerbated by Brexit, not a tax on sugar.

Philanthropy is just the wealthy justifying their tax avoidance by wanking publically about how giving they are. If they were genuine about their concerns for giving back, they would pay their fucking taxes and at a higher rate. Tax avoidance and financial shit fuckery like corporate bailouts, share buy backs and COVID payments accelerate wealth acruell and drive up inflation and wage stagnation. Fuck. Them. All.

Agree. I would also insist on it being supported by a socialised health system with control over pharmaceutical pricing.

Mother Theresa would have fucking loved all this shit.

And of course they put aside enough money to have their corpses removed and all the rubbish they took up with them…right? Self indulgent, ego stroking narcissism is what this is. They could have used their wealth to help community development programs in Nepal and pushed for making Everest a restricted world heritage site.

That anywhere else is better.

Random toilet thought: I wonder if doing that with your cat actually builds some familial bond with them different from the habituated human that they may perceive us to be. Specifically an actually pride member coparticipating in hunting. To be honest I reckon they probably think we’re cramping their style and would prefer that we simply fuck off and get some catnip.

I think you make a good case for making energy production a public utility. Private ownership of essential services is ethically bankrupt. The fact that a company can fail and leave people without core services, is disgusting in my opinion. Even more disgusting is that they almost always seek public funds to bail them out.

Exactly, a lot data exfil’d is used to enrich other sources. All data loss should be treated as a catastrophic failure of security controls. Corporate victims should pay for their customers potential loss of identity and privacy as a preemptive action, even if the data in of itself may be considered low risk. If compliance with this is difficult then executives should be forced under law to post all of their personal info into Wikipedia with audio samples of their voice, full genome mapping and mugshots. Fuck these companies and their profits over people attitude.

You did a very excellent thing looking out for this doglet. As to the yelling at the owners; if it’s hyperbole then all’s well. If in fact you did yell at them, then that can foster resentment that can often be deflected to other things like said woofer. If these owners are recalcitrant in looking after this animal, then offer to take her off their hands and place her in a more loving environment. Once she is secure, persue her former owners and dissembowel them with a cement trowel and wear their entrails like Mardi gras bling. Have a wonderful day and peace be with you.

The board, CEOs and senior executives of these leeches need to be standing in line holding their wicker baskets.

In what fucking universe is putting secure military communications under the control of a private entity a good idea?

I think it was a great use of the word! Anybody seeking to expand their vocabulary is top shelf in my book.

I just think that spicy tea would help to spread the death a bit better.

I think the implication is that the tea might have been glowing. No window required.
