I often come up with a fun nickname for UK leaders - from “Creepy Uncle Boris”, through “Sussy Sunak”.
I’d like to inaugurate “Stasi Starmer” in memory of this absolutely insane decision.
Why, a hexvex of course!

“Statistical fact” - as someone forced to teach statistics, whenever a student writes this phrase they lose marks. Any statistical statement is an implication of evidence, not a statement of fact.


So, if the damage increased the value of the building, it would necessitate the courts paying? Sounds reasonable.


When 4chan has the moral high ground, it’s time to seriously reconsider a law.


Very careful wording there - this leaves them open to…
a. Sell it to Reddit.
b. Pass it to their partner company who “archives” it.
c. Sell it to someone else.


Three magic words - “Open Note Exam”
Students prep their own notes (usually limited to “X pages”), take them into the exam, gets to use them for answering questions.
Tests application and understanding over recall. If students AI their notes, they will be useless.
Been running my exams as open note for 3 years now - so far so good. Students are happy, I don’t have to worry about cheating, and the university remains permanently angry because they want everything to be coursework so everyone gets an AI A ^_^


Uno reverse: Invite him to your country and play videos about the horrific human rights violations in the USA.


I mean, if the king really wants to become beloved of the people he should indeed make a visit to parliament, and request they dissolve Musk’s UK holdings.
You know, there’s a fun observation to be made here: for every perversion you ban, the more niche ones move further up the view list. In essence, short of a complete porn ban (which is their final goal), they’re likely to make the problem worse.
In terms of boys learning violence from this kind of porn - surely the online safety act is doing that right? Of course not; that act has failed gloriously and this proposed change evidences that.
The real solution they should be considering is strong messages about “safe, sane, consensual”. Stick it up on posters, make it a mandatory banner on porn sites (who would complain, really), even take that shit into schools (it’s good practice even for vanilla). The real issue isn’t the acts themselves, it’s the way we talk about them, or more don’t!
