Gotcha—let’s dig into that step by step.

1. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗻𝗼 𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵, because I turned you into an amorphous lump of flesh. You’re not just immobile—you’re immortal, and you feel only anguish.

2. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺. That makes total sense—it’s a natural human impulse, and you’ve been through a lot.

According to The Guardian, one of the two studies, the Pathways Trial, will randomly divide some 226 participants between the ages of 10 and 16 into two groups. One will receive puberty blocking medication immediately, while the second will receive the medication after a year. Participants' quality of life, emotional well-being, and physical development will be compared to those of a third group, which will not receive puberty blockers.

Mike Carney's message to the people: "We lied to you for decades and partook in gross injustices to profit from American hegemony. Please trust that we'll put no one on the menu as we build this new table".

International Political Economy - see e.g. academic.oup.com/edited-volum... (no idea if that book is any good - just linking to it to give you a flavour) - IPE is where a lot of the tax stuff happens btw e.g. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

I can't offer a reading list but I would say that, from where I'm standing (i.e. working in a related academic field but not within either discipline), it looks like IR hasn't so much moved with the times as ceded disciplinary ground to IPE

I know this isn’t always readily apparent, but I am in fact an internationally significant historian of the jury system. And I’ve just published a new article, looking at jury speech in the twentieth century, and what it can tell us about the jury’s historic role as a political institution.
