@celestialbe1ng The people dunking on this decision are all just engaging in typical mean girl behaviour, some of it masquerading as compassion. Especially the men. Who is claiming that diet alone prevents all (signs of) ageing?
@Sargon_of_Akkad 'Well actually' responses to this are spiritually the same as you get when criticising attached bottle caps. Yes, midwits, it's not difficult. But the result of increasing amounts of tedium and wasted time for little/no benefit in aggregate is the degradation of life
@Keir_Starmer No, you are exploiting the Nowak family as a shield against valid criticism. Beyond despicable. As were the calls for Farage to denounce the violence to score moral superiority points. The young man died after having his cries for help ignored due to accusations of racism.
@DPJHodges Starmer was using the Nowak family as a shield. That's 'nailing' the response? Beyond despicable. As were the calls for Farage to denounce the violence to score moral superiority points. The young man died after having his cries for help ignored due to accusations of racism.
@celestialbe1ng Most of the women who have stirred the strongest romantic feelings in me have had a degree of imperfection or some unconventional quality in their face that defies mathematically abstracted ratios, but nonetheless enhances the impact of their overall beauty.
@Sargon_of_Akkad This, on top of Farage's snake behaviour towards Lowe, reinforces the sense that Reform do not represent the English and our sense of fair play. It's viscerally disgusting to me.
@celestialbe1ng Drinking alcohol is one of the things believed to cause a 'whoosh' where weight suddenly drops following a stall. I rarely drink, but have noticed this happen quite often when I do.
@Tom_Rowsell If I remember correctly, Spengler said something like 'the spirit of the land gets into the bones'. I think when discussing the appearance of US vs UK anglos.
@AcademicAgent_X This is true. Relatedly, in Britain at least, as a general rule, I've noticed that Catholics and Anglo-Catholics/high church Anglicans tend to be the heathiest and most attractive-looking and the further into Protestantism you go, the lumpier and and more misshapen they get.
@WingedOneWinter It's David Sylvian, the 'other David' to David Bowie. Collaborated with Ryuichi Sakamoto often, including the theme for the movie Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence. Also sings one of the outros to the anime Monster. https://t.co/o4IyIyT1bX
@AcademicAgent_X Did anyone comment that Bombadil is the most Taoist character in LOTR? Would be very much at home in the Book of Zhuangzi/Chuang Tzu. His indifference to the ring and its lack of power over him is symbolically significant.
