But before settlement you have zero access and after you have the same as anyone who lives here right? Or have I misunderstood?

What’s the difference here? Access implying they’re guaranteed? Seems a stretch.

Interesting.

Isn’t this just education by proxy?

By this argument anything other than pure open borders is racism.

I mean I’m as anti McSweeney as anyone but it was the guys leaving drinks I’m not sure what people expected.

It is but also much smaller spread I think.

Ending world hunger is a lot cheaper than providing therapy to everyone in the US. Food costs a lot less than therapy. Because we automated large parts of its production.

I’m not in the US I’m in the UK and the limited mental health support we provide is of poor quality to the point of being functionally useless.

05.03.2026 08:14 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

The cost of that would be outrageous. Unless you’re willing to automate it somehow…

Yes. You should spend it on Claude :P

Went googling about this tattoo to see what all the fuss was about and: seriously? Why are Americans?

05.03.2026 07:54 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

All of these are made up

That is literally what’s happening.

If it can do it all it can do admin and management. Everyone thinks their job is special.

Exactly this. My daughter is diagnosed ASD and me and my partner probably would have been too by today’s standards. But there’s no practical accommodations she (or we) needs really and I worry it takes funding from those who do need it.

If journalists could be bothered he’s there for the taking.

Bizarre take

It’s still illegal to produce work that breaches copyright. Copyright doesn’t cover everyone ever seeing your work.

Some may say everything is.

So many mediocre men earning a living from this stuff.

Not sure I agree. Money = power and billionaires for the power of a small country (and in come cases a large country) to one person.

Seems like a good idea. Why the scare headline?

I mean you are being ableist so of course it’s real. This isn’t a grey area. A tic has no meaning and isn’t an insult. The simple answer is basic education about the condition, yet seemingly Americans are immune to that.

04.03.2026 07:54 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

In this case no there isn’t.

It literally had his prices and a link to his site. Come on.

Seemingly being the key word here. How do you think having people say you shouldn’t be allowed in public because of something you can no more control than your skin colour feels?

03.03.2026 22:29 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Oh right. I mean I’m short sighted and read a lot so definitely not making a value judgement. Just not sure OPs point that this was a moral panic is valid in this case.
