Dementia researcher. Senior Lecturer, Gerontologist and full time 40k fanatic. Posts probably about Warhammer, but with the odd bit of dementia thrown in.

Death to the False Emperor!
This is the kind of lost economic growth you’d expect to see in countries under long term economic sanctions.

We voluntarily chose to sanction ourselves.

“Why did the chicken cross the road?”

“Because some silly bugger crashed the lorry it was being transported in”

Apparently this happened at home today.

Zeke is going to have a field day chasing loose chickens all over Dunblane.

Oh no. I’m only young for another 8 weeks 😂

(Sorry, love your work Lewis 😆)
…They should ask themselves why so many young (45 and under) people are so unhappy with the economy/politics and convinced that capitalism isn’t working for them. Because in the main- it isn’t.

Being asked to send an end of module feedback survey several weeks before the module ends.

This is the third (or maybe fourth) request we been told to send out.

We pretty much send a request after every interaction with students.

And guess what. Most students don’t complete them.

Well duh.

Watching IT: welcome to Derry on Sky Atlantic and all i can think is “aww look at the little cyber cherub”

I thought the same when I read it.

Now follow it up now by watching a House of Dynamite on Netflix. May as well be a dramatisation of this book. After that double header you won’t sleep for a week!
Just binge read

By a country mile the most frightening thing I've ever read

The sheffield wednesday social media feeds have brought back the old, true logo for our club, and I’m low key so happy to see it again!

Ok this one is good.

Trumpian levels of business acumen from Chansiri here.

BBC 5 live presenter just now “I didn’t expect the depth of feeling from the Wednesday fans (about chansiri)”.

Wtf did you expect?

You wouldn’t say that to Liverpool fans if they found themselves in the position we’ve been in the last few months and years.

Hearing Sheffield Wednesday have been put into administration

Dark days, but hopefully this will finally cut away the cancer of Chansiri, and let us start rebuilding.

Just please don’t let us be bought by Mike Ashley. That’s like swapping Jimmy Savile for Jeffrey Epstein.

We truly are in the age of the Enthickenment. I lost about 10 IQ points just from reading the post.
EPA Commissioner Lee Zeldin announces his agency is launching a major investigation into the right-wing conspiracies about chemtrails and weather manipulation to get to the bottom of it.

This literally looks like something from Warhammer 40k.

When you are giving out medals that look like something a Chaos Marine would wear, you don’t need to ask if you’re the baddies anymore. You are.

Short of vaping, this would likely be the greatest public health intervention of the 21st Century.

Okay. So. Amazing scenes playing out at the vets when i arrived to pick up Napoleon.

Names changed/removed. But get ready for a lost kitty story with a happy ending.

It starts late last year, when the elderly neighbour of a young couple went into a care home /1

Please god no one introduce Peter Thiel to Warhammer 40k. If he finds out about that we’re all f***ed.

He’ll be telling his underlings to build him the Golden Throne.
Every time someone makes me read something Peter Thiel said it’s like “Scrooge McDuck is Jesus Christ and Huey, Dewey, and Louie are Gabriel, Raphael, and Uriel and Daisy is Mary Magdalene and that’s why women voting has lowered American sperm count.”
