They often walk away saying how I've provided a new perspective, and that they weren't aware of something I said and it gave them something to think about, only to turn around the next day as if they hadn't heard a single word from me.

Classic example of the Gell-Mann amnesia

I saw some of it & the guy is barely coherent. If he came into work like that, I would have him breathalysed & drug screened!

"Plenty of space on pavement outside NY Hilton for other billionaires to take a snooze" might work!

He (allegedly) didn't get the ones we all wanted but he showed people the path and that puts the shits up the rest of them!

Western authorities have been harvesting data for a few decades from social media so any complaint that singles out Chinese apps doing the same is obviously rooted in sinophobia.

The fact you think my joking about racists doing that is pathetic shows which side of that assertion you fall.

That sinophobia isn't going to stoke itself!

Pixelfed has been live for a while and Loops is in beta.

For my invite the other and whole not as fully featured as some corp owned short form video apps, it looks good & has multiple things over the others

The cut off is grandparents. I know as I'm entitled to Irish citizenship via my grandmother (as soon as I get a copy of her death certificate)

but none of the others are ever going to gain power.

Unless in a position such as the batshit insane DUP where they had a confidence & supply agreement with Theresa Mays govt

His show is entertainment, so he has this character who is semi- incompetent in everything. Yeah, he has this personality also, but not 100%. And some of what he does is just idiotic.

The thing about playing a bafoon-ish, semi-incompetent character that uses racist encoded jokes, promoting a lifestyle of the bored rich elite is that at some point you have to come off stage and out of character.

When Clarkson comes off stage, he punches people in the face because he didn't get his din-dins or writes opinion pieces with racist encoded jokes and illiberal positions.
