> ‘I’ve never smelt anything like it’: confessions of a Reading Festival litter-picker

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/music/concerts/never-smelt-anything-like-confessions-reading-festival-litter/

In Nalchik, Russia a disabled activist was sentenced to 2 years suspended sentence for attack on a policeman.

In the original complaint the policemen witnessed the suspect grabbed one of them and tried to suffocate. This caused a bit of confusion when the suspect came to the court and it became evident his disability is... lack of hands.

After initial confusion the court promptly fixed the witness statement to a more doable version, where the suspect hits the policeman with his head.

Oh and this:

> According to McCorvey, friends advised her that she should assert falsely that she had been raped by a group of black men and that she could thereby obtain a legal abortion under Texas's law.

Roe v Wade case specifically isn't the best symbol or example in the human rights debate, as it has been driven by deceit and lies from the very beginning, on both sides. I understand this is how the US precedent law worked, but still.

> McCorvey was no longer claiming her pregnancy was a result of rape, and later acknowledged that she had lied about having been raped, in hope to circumvent a Texas law that banned abortions except when the woman's life is in danger

@MariaHill US is an interesting mix of 21s and 18th century 🤔

Вот вот. А я уже собирался покупать билет и такой сюрприз. Но если куплю на 18 сеньтября это должно быть уже после этого постановления которое карантин сносит.

I had a lot of hopes for DAI and especially DSR but then the Ethereum price crisis and gas price made it quite useless.

Fossil gas is a "transitional" fuel in Energiewende in the same way as dictatorship of the proletariat was a "transitional" stage in the USSR ☝️

@1010101 @rf

Блин, какой ещё карантин?! Я думал его давно отменили, хотя бы дла вакцинированных? 🤦‍♂️

@diritschka Not in the COVID-19 era, as @BillySmith explained earlier in this thread 😔

@vfrmedia @guenther @Bobo_PK

Oh yes, I meant the right hand side news - especially in the context of the dumped lateral flow tests.

@piotrsikora @remizapl

Poważnie? 😲 A z jakiego pieca poszło?

@freemo @modrobert

You *quoted* it but you are not *using* it.

Quite the opposite - you're applying a reductionist labelling ("China, being one of the few successful socialist countries") where the paragraph (Communism & socialism) clearly highlights the semantic complexity and vagueness of both terms.

@freemo @modrobert

> Nazis are socialist

That's why I referred you the the NSDAP programme, which is 50% composed of postulates shared by SPD (German social-democrats) and Bolshevik, with the other 50% taken from Italian fascists, American & European rasists, and hotly contested by the Bolshevik.

Your other statements are unverifiable and cannot be argued with since you're using terms derived from your private semantic space without any unambiguous definition.
