I need all good people to look around and see what this plague of overconfident evil people is doing to society, and I need you good people to understand: ABANDON YOUR IMPOSTER SYNDROME. YOU CAN DO ANYTHING. A BETTER WORLD IS POSSIBLE.

There's definitely a space-newspaper article about how they saved for their dream apartment by making Blue Milk at home and not subscribing to premium podracing channels that reveals that Syril's mum gave him a deposit three paragraphs in.

Fuck the industry. Pay up or train your resource-wasting labour-replacement engines on something else. Parasites.

The mistake Jones makes here is to equate governing with a "transformative policy agenda". For Starmer and the establishment, governing is about closing off alternatives: doling out incremental progressive gestures only once fiscal orthodoxy is secure. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
