@corby_tun @MartinSLewis "If you charge me an extra 1.5% I'm going to sell all my assets and move abroad"

Do you hear yourself?

@Lageraemia @DanWritehead If you want to be a doomer about it that's fine I guess but if you'd prefer it would get better, why not argue for that?

Resignation to your fate helps only the people who want your life worse

@Lageraemia @DanWritehead Sounds like something that won't be fixed by making it harder to have enough spare money to buy things

@Hopkins_Alison @flipkoin2 @BladeoftheS Getting rid of surestarts was MENTAL

@rabbi_oj @PhilipProudfoot I don't think he'd planned to be a landlord, no

[Tom @T0m90]

@flipkoin2 @BladeoftheS Me and my wife are graduates earning a bit over national average

For us to have a child, either one of us would need to stop work which would make the house unaffordable, or they would be raised by the state as much as possible through outrageously priced childcare

So no kid

@NickShepley @L__Macfarlane The guardian is unironically a more damaging paper than the mail for exactly this kind of thing

@DroidLiberator @alexcxcxz @mattzarb Yeh then Thatcher happened

@DroidLiberator @alexcxcxz @mattzarb My guy our society is so fractured it's hard to organise anything at the best of times. About 20% of our nation voted Reform

A general strike will not happen

@chandlermcphee You can be insecure about it if you want but yeh if you make a claim based on research you've read you then need to provide the research

[Tom @T0m90]

@chandlermcphee @toojoe @DavidBahry @morallawwithin My dude if that's the summary you took from the point I've been driving at this entire time I'm afraid you may lack complex thought

[Tom @T0m90]

@chandlermcphee @toojoe @DavidBahry @morallawwithin Seeing as you're very high IQ I'm sure you're familiar with the burden of proof and are only accidentally trying to shift it

Don't worry man we all make mistakes

I'd love to see the study you're referencing here tho, I'm sure it exists

[Tom @T0m90]

@chandlermcphee @toojoe @DavidBahry @morallawwithin You're getting super defensive under extremely shallow questions

I asked what the twin studies show and you said - confidently - that research supports the claim that IQ is independently predictive of success, and to support that you shared a study that looked at something else

[Tom @T0m90]

@chandlermcphee @toojoe @DavidBahry @morallawwithin Surely if I'm retarded because I can't find them, you and your big brain that's already read and understood them well enough to speak with authority can whip them up post haste
