I’m sure there are some good things somewhere. But they’ve sure done a good job hiding them

The ramblings of the secretary of state for science and tech are cheaper than therapy I guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Hell, the statement is even more nonsensical than that. My rephrasing can be interpreted abstractly.

But no, he literally says:
“Verifying your age keeps a child safe.”

What child???

It’s wild how transparent they are being about that. “Verifying your age [instead of using a VPN] protects children.” Wtf, no it obviously doesn’t. It’s almost as if protecting children isn’t the goal

IMO, pretending that such language doesn't exist, or that rules aren't there to facilitate communication, actually hurts more than it helps. It leads people to believe that style is only for the chosen few. In fact, style—like any language—can be learned.

I recently saw someone on here say that such fashion "rules" are pretentious. But when I looked at their photos, they were dressed in a very clear subcultural language that communicated their identity—young, hip, countercultural. They, too, were using language governed by "rules."

I wonder if preying on people with disabilities by not only failing to make accommodations for them but actively exploiting their differences for profit is a violation of the UK Equality Act 🤔 #FoodForThought
