I like this quote. But the problem in today's world of social media confirmation bias echo chambers, is that both sides of so many polarising issues think they're the ones standing firm on the side of truth, and that their opponents are the deluded ones. Worth remembering that.

@JohnCha38949033 @MonkEmma @DrNickA When I pay Council Tax I pay for lots of services I don't personally use. It's called having a society.

@DrNickA @MonkEmma We have Cameron, followed by May, followed by Boris, followed by Truss, followed by Sunak, each worse than the last, but you think Labour are the most hated government in decades?! You're delusional!

@AriDavidPaul @MyArrse Imagine if we banned Russia because they invaded Ukraine. Oh wait...

@pastelETH @Longswordwife The many rules and regulations regarding hormone treatment and testosterone levels that exist to prevent exactly that sort of abuse.

@KlohammerJ @escmatthew It was all jury voting till the mid 90s, when the public vote started to come in and almost completely replaced the jury. Only the last few years have they used a combination. It's always been political, though the public vote the last couple years seems compromised.

@Itswhoyoutthink @raven_brah Like this website here that says $90,000 in 1983 should be worth $290,000 today, not 1.6 million?

@MartinSLewis I swear young people today think speakerphone is the only way to use a phone! Probably doesn't help that they grew up without landlines.

@LeoKearse @Jo_Caulfield @BBC So would Green, SNP, Plaid Cymru etc. They don't get represented every week on QT.

@AndyPan23272529 @Dougmcg1 Wow, that is some impressively creative revisionism! Scotland last voted for the Tories in 1955, 70 years ago, and in the time since we've had 45 years of Tory government. Because the English keep voting for them. Not to mention Brexit, overwhelmingly rejected in Scotland.

@Criterion Not a bad Irish accent there! 🤣

@jwelliver @jk_rowling @Michele_Tafoya No one is performing gender affirming surgery on children. And how old were you when you realised you were male?

[Graham McGill 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 @Teppic5]

@jk_rowling Except he didn't say doctors should prescribe puberty blockers because there are good medical reasons, he said they should be ALLOWED to prescribe them if THEY THINK there are good medical reasons. You're the one trying to tell them what they can and can't do Miss Self-aware!

@melissaCnavia Any chance of more of T'Pring's parents? We need a Sevet and Pike buddy movie!

@Rob_ADFIntl @Fat_Jacques She knew exactly what she was doing. You and she are being disingenuous by claiming otherwise.

@__Samantha8 I like a good 8 hours. I dislike waking up early at the weekend and bring unable to get back to sleep.

@jeffreyhoward33 @franklinleonard That makes more sense! 🤣 Autocorrect is a real bitch sometimes!

[Tim Burgess @Tim_Burgess]

Forgot I was on a phone call about council tax…

Them: What band are you in?

Me: Erm, The Charlatans

Them: Your council tax band

😬

Taking no credit for this quote but we should stop calling it "ai art" and start calling it computer-rendered artificial pictures (C.R.A.P.)
