    Another incremental step towards sanity and away from Thatcherite (hawk, spit!) dogmatic stupidity. BBC News - Chiltern Railways renationalised after 30 years as private company https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c68xk701d975o

    @rhys@mastodon.rhys.wtf I gave up on the normal suspects (conspiratorial thinking) about Trump years ago. My big question these-months is &quot;if Melania isn&#39;t his handler, who is?

    @CatsOfYore@mastodon.social Kitteh + glassware has never gone, uh, sideways? Evah? Now *there* is a &quot;theme&quot; if you ever do a &quot;day of.. &quot; or clickbait &quot;vote for the best&quot; poll. &quot;Perched kitteh + delicate glassware&quot;.

    @Photo55@mastodon.social @cstross@wandering.shop Didn&#39;t that line get used at least once in &quot;Empire Games&quot;? In the &quot;US&quot;. It has probably been used, unironically, in USA history. Cromwell would have had SUCH a field day suppressing the US terrorist insurgency (Revolutionary War).

    @MissConstrue@mefi.social It&#39;s a major failure of biosecurity. Thank Cthulhu (and by &quot;Cthulhu&quot; I mean Menhit) that we ran a literally tighter ship off West Africa during Ebola. (2014, for clarity).

    @Remittancegirl@mstdn.social @hkrn@mstdn.social Agreed, but I doubt it will be earth-shattering. There are many ways to be blind from birth, and no sub-group is specified. So there is unlikely to be unusual physiology/ biochemistry, but a support/ intense socialisation explanation. Which is &quot;humans are social animals&quot; in a hat and false moustache.

    @Remittancegirl@mstdn.social Omlette with tortilla (?) delusions? What&#39;s the colour - 3-ring burner chillies?

    @Remittancegirl@mstdn.social &quot;Massaman&quot; a derivation/ mangling of &quot;muslim/ mohammedan&quot;? So ... Pakistan (East or West, if you go back that far)? Probably. I thought that was more a Portuguese stamping ground than Spanish. But you didn&#39;t claim it was &quot;local&quot;. I&#39;ll still take the red as a warning flag. It&#39;s definitely sending messages.

    Does anyone have an estimated date for the Iranian truck-nuke to detonate in downtown (Americaville ; details don&#39;t matter). That&#39;s what you get by decapitation - all the independent snakes virtue-signalling amongst themselves. I&#39;ll put my pint-voucher on May Day. Because America&#39;s &quot;communist!&quot; reflex will misdirect the retaliation onto one of their (America&#39;s) nominal allies.
