After Watergate, people bought bumper stickers saying “Don’t blame me, I’m from Massachusetts”, because it was the only state Nixon didn’t win. I want one that says “Don’t blame me, I voted for chaos with Ed Miliband”.

@p87737d64g6 @burandon_sama @sovietscifi Struggling to see why those would encourage ideation any more than “unalived” apart from sounding less clunky. I feel as though sometimes there’s a bit of an arms race to with progressive language and all it does is create worse and less useable phrasing for the same thing.

I haven’t followed the Depp v Herd trial closely enough to have anything like a reasonable opinion on the outcome, but people outside the court wearing pirate hats and cheering at the outcome when it was ultimately about domestic violence is very ugly.

@carlgardner I think it’s more important that MPs take their responsibility for their constituents and the wider country seriously than the monarchy. He still took the oath. Republicans are a significant portion of the population and in a democracy it should be possible to respect that view.
