@itsdbtalks I am earning over that threshold and I’m always excited to get a pay rise.
Yes I pay higher tax, and I’m happy to do so as I care about my country and my tax money goes to help with that.
I’m happy to pay more into NI because I hope it’s still in place when I retire
@GMFinX Increase it and pay more into your pension if you’re happy with your take home pay at £50,483, the pension contributions would offset the income tax, then never complain about the speed/efficiency of tax based services again seen as you see contributions as a negative
@Jackcitymusic@NathanDrozario1 A volley is determined by what happens *before* the ball is hit. Not what happens after. If it doesn’t bounce before, it is a volley. If it bounces and you kick it on its way back up from the bounce it is a half volley. What happens after it is kicked is irrelevant
@KamenMar@kraftthecreator@bigbrovar iOS is everything but fluid and user friendly is an opinion, not fact. everyone who loves Apple love it because of how fluid the ecosystem is, pairing AirPods, the way iPhone and Mac interact etc
Nobody is buying Vision Pro is irrelevant, the claim was no one has replicated it.
@HausofSweets@GrandFeddy@bukunola_@LateefSaka And I really do hope I haven’t come across as condescending or like I’m trying to attack you, I can completely understand why yourself (and many others) saw it the way you did! Especially with a condition that doesn’t have the understanding of a lot of other conditions!
@HausofSweets@GrandFeddy@bukunola_@LateefSaka It is worth noting that the condition worsens in ‘pressure’ situation. For example, meeting the queen or being on TV for the BAFTAs, generally it isn’t quite as bad when you’re just walking down the street (although still is bad)
@HausofSweets@GrandFeddy@bukunola_@LateefSaka 100% but I believe any adult understands the venom that word carries and how awful it is, so when you have a condition that essentially forces you to say the worst thing, can you see why that would be the word that comes out in the situation he was in.
@HausofSweets@GrandFeddy@bukunola_@LateefSaka I completely understand why yourself and a lot of people see it the way you do. Someone being racist is far more prevalent and I’m sure something you have dealt with compared to coprolalia. I personally haven’t had to face racism personally so it is easier to separate the 2
@HausofSweets@GrandFeddy@bukunola_@LateefSaka It 100% is but for the opposite of what is being put across. Racism plays a role because he will be fighting so hard to not say it because he understands how hurtful it is because racism does exist in the world. The more you DONT want to say something, the more likely you will
@GrandFeddy@HausofSweets@bukunola_@LateefSaka Exactly, living with it must be horrendous because you will be constantly hurting people you care for and don’t want to hurt. And to be clear, that doesn’t mean Micheal B Jordan and Delroy Lindo should have had to face what they did. Compassion is something that is unlimited
@HausofSweets@GrandFeddy@bukunola_@LateefSaka Much worse is a stretch but he saw the queen so he said fuck the queen. I imagine there are plenty of times he has called people cunts. I would suggest actually researching the experience for people living with the condition before dictating that they must be racist.
@HausofSweets@GrandFeddy@bukunola_@LateefSaka Fuck The Queen said directly to the queen is much worse in that very specific context. The thing with this is your brain will start saying the ‘worst’ thing in your mind. Which shows, for him, the N word was the worst thing and then you have little/no control over stopping it.
I can’t lie as someone who has lost multiple people to drugs this turns my stomach. Fuck you Labour for weaponising their struggles and if I wasn’t already never voting for you again for a multitude of reasons this would do the job. Decrim & destigmatising can save lives.
@HausofSweets@GrandFeddy@bukunola_@LateefSaka The same reason there are cases of people with coprolalia saying ‘I’ve got a bomb’ when on planes. It usually relies on context of the situation. Saying fuck the queen has contextually when meeting the queen, the N word had context in that situation, bombs have context on planes.
@BobbertyTimms The government don’t differentiate legal vs illegal unless the legal migrants are economic migrants…. ICE don’t care to differentiate and no due process is given.
