Dear everyone: One of the reasons I left Twitter and came here was so I didn't have to read all the right-wing hate that's there. Please don't bring it hear by screenshotting it just to tell everyone it's still there.

The biggest red flags associated with willingness to use coercion to get sex were: men who …

🚩 believed rape myths
🚩 wanted stereotypical gender roles in relationships (especially male dominance)
🚩 had psychopathic traits (e.g. selfishness, manipulation of others)

A lesson baby barristers often learn fairly quickly after falling into the trap of trying to be like that early on

I try not to use this site to be negative, but with the increase in cases coming through the Crown Court as a result of the recent riots, coupled with the huge backlog, we really need more than 75% of available courts sitting. Urgent funding of the CJS is required at all levels.

How to solve England’s bulging prisons crisis UK officials considered Rikers Island prison barge to ease capacity crisis before early release of inmates

It's well past time to properly talk about the state of our prisons & sentencing. Interesting how other European countries are already over capacity for their prisoners: How to solve England’s bulging prisons crisis on.ft.com/3MfMTYU

I think having a DA offenders register akin to the sex offenders register would be a good idea

Akiyama was not a trained astronaut, scientist nor engineer. 31 During his time aboard Mir, Akiyama gave live reports each day documenting life aboard the station, but his apparent discomfort led to him being described as the first "antihero in space". 3!
He described his struggles such as space sickness and craving for cigarettes: 31 During training, he quit smoking cigarettes, having previously smoked four packs a day. Before liftoff, when asked what he looked forward to most upon his return to Earth, he said "I can't wait to have a smoke" [101 His fellow cosmonauts later reported, in regards to his nausea, that they "hadn't ever seen a man vomit that much."|12]

There's also going to need to be an equivalent of the old verification blue tick at some point though, unless there already is and I've not seen it yet

I actually disagree about soccer (football to me), the proper releases are rare as goals are generally rare. Which is what makes them so good. Missed chances add to the build ups rather than being a proper release I think.
