The charity Prostate Cancer UK is calling for sanitary bins to be made mandatory in men’s toilets, saying men left incontinent after treatment need to feel more confident wearing sanitary pads.
Joe Appiah says bins would have made him feel more comfortable to leave the house when he experienced incontinence after his prostate cancer diagnosis.
The Station Nightclub fire happened in 2003. No smartphones. No Instagram.
100 people still died because they stood watching the flames, thinking it was part of the show.
I've retrofitted fire safety for some of the largest property portfolios in the UK post-grenfell.
You are confusing stupidity with biology, physics, and catastrophic design failures.
Here is the actual science of what you are watching:
1. When the music keeps playing and staff don't panic, the human brain overrides flight instincts to fit the threat into a normal context. This is called normalcy bias. These kids froze to process conflicting social cues, not to post for likes. They were likely already filming. They were also likely drunk.
2. We explicitly design buildings to account for this hesitation (pre-movement time). Fire safety codes assume people will wait before running. In a compliant building, you can assume up to a minute or two before egress commences. Sprinklers and detection systems are designed specifically to buy that time.
3. The reason the time buffer didn't exist here is the material. That ceiling is polyurethane foam. It doesn't burn linearly; it hits flashover (1,100°F) in under 90 seconds. It's essentially solid gasoline. The room would have exploded for all intents and purposes. Way before anyone could reasonably evacuate.
4. We calculate exit widths based on how many people can physically pass through a door per minute (flow rate) versus how fast a fire spreads. With foam fires, the available safe egress time drops to almost zero. Even if they had reacted instantly, the crowd density would have choked the exits before the room cleared.
5. In any normal building fire, especially one that starts off small, you expect a responsible adult to put it out, or sprinklers to do the same. When there's a pan fire in a restaurant, you don't run out in case the entire building suddenly explodes. No reasonable person should have expected this unless they were the owner and knew how the building was designed.
Those poor teenagers likely passed out from smoke inhalation soon after this video. If they didn't, they would have been caught in a catastrophic explosion as they crammed into the single tiny exit.
They didn't die because of Instagram.
They died because the physics of the fire moved faster than human bodies can physically squeeze through a door, and a catastrophic disregard of safe design principles meant they never stood a chance.
THIS is how ben johnson is CURRENTLY discussing his conviction and incarceration btw. a convicted rapist is saying it’s unfair he can’t play hockey in the NHL.
@AllenAmericans do better.
the memeification of Epstein has worked to obscure the horror of his extensive crimes. This man raped and trafficked CHILDREN. He destroyed countless lives and escaped accountability for years due to his powerful network of friends, associates, and co conspirators
Imagine looting your own universities, stuffing them into “public interest” foundations run by party friends, then crying “Europe last” when the EU finally stops wiring you Erasmus money.
The 21 affected Hungarian universities lost access to new Erasmus+ and Horizon contracts because of documented rule-of-law, corruption and conflict-of-interest problems in these foundations, under the Conditionality Regulation. That is a Council decision after Commission investigations, not some random “presumption without review,” and even the Commission spells out that students and other Hungarian institutions can still take part in Erasmus, only new contracts with the captured foundations are blocked.

Higher education policy can be national, but Erasmus+ is an EU programme paid from the EU budget, and every member state signed up to conditionality that protects that money from governments that hollow out transparency and academic freedom. Hungary is not “singled out” for being Hungarian, it is sanctioned for ignoring basic rule-of-law standards.

And no, “Erasmus for North Africa and the Middle East” is not a secret migration tunnel. Erasmus has always had a global dimension, including southern Mediterranean partners, with time-limited study visas and no automatic right to stay. The new Pact for the Mediterranean is a foreign-policy tool to stabilise the region and cooperate on education, energy and jobs, not to sneak hundreds of thousands into Europe via semester exchanges.

So the story is very simple: Brussels is protecting European students and taxpayers from a captured university system at home and using Erasmus as a soft-power tool abroad. The only “backdoor” here is the one Fidesz built from public universities straight into party clientele networks, and that is exactly what got slammed shut.
And now, the reality:
- Cambodia and Thailand: it was a border conflict that ended thanks to mediation by Malaysia. All Trump did was a phone call threatening tariffs.
- Kosovo and Serbia: there was no war
- DRC and Rwanda: war did not end, violence continues
- Pakistan and India: India is adamant there was no US mediation
- Israel and Iran: the US was literally a belligerent (remember the US strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities?)
- Egypt and Ethiopia: there was no war
- Armenia and Azerbaijan: the "peace deal" hasn't actually been signed
- Israel and Hamas: beyond obscene for the US to take credit for ending a genocide it was the key enabler of
Greta Thunberg in Greece:
I could talk for a very, very long time about our mistreatment and abuses in our imprisonment. Trust me, but that is not the story.
Israel is escalating genocide and mass destruction with genocidal intent, attempting to erase an entire population in front of our eyes.
The family expressly requested that social media accounts stop circulating these images but you people keep doing it because you don’t care about her in the fucking slightest
I don't even know how to write this. It feels like I'm slowly being turned inside out with each passing thought. I'm asking any and all people who know me to please share this. I just got the news last night. Please share. Get the word out.
It's my baby nephew, man. I'm not okay
