The people who think that the future is just excluding everything from the sections of 'humanity' they don't want to exist are going to get a really big surprise as they are given the exact same treatment as a result. All these people acting amazed when people they respect turn out to be hated...

Knowing what I can and can't get into trouble over when responding to this post, I would venture to suggest this Code of Practice appears inherently flawed, and may cause irreparable damage to the reputation of this country. Where is the actual equality and humanity?

Our code of practice for services, public functions and associations comes into force today. It provides practical guidance on how the Equality Act 2010 applies to services, public functions and associations. Find out more: https://ow.ly/alIf50Zwrkx

Quote from Dr Mary-Ann Stephenson: 'At the EHRC we want a society where everyone’s rights are respected and realised, so that we can all live well together. Our statutory guidance will help services across the country comply with the Equality Act, protecting service users from discrimination and harassment while reducing the risk of the provider being subject to litigation. 



As Britain’s equality regulator, our work doesn’t end upon publication of this guidance. We monitor compliance with the law and take enforcement action where proportionate and necessary, in line with our well-established regulatory model and decision-making framework.'

You can/should read Emily Wilson's latest take on the Odyssey, but I'm logging on to convey my hairdresser's reaction. She was AGHAST that Nolan, with his million $ budget, gave Matt Damon ONLY 6 hair extensions. As a result, his hair did not blow around properly, & that ruined the film for her.

Really weird to me how incredibly rich white men get to say stuff like "in three to four years we'll be achieving nuclear fusion from honey" and the stock markets go "wow, sounds great bro!" and the news just reports it with maybe a paragraph at the end of "critics say this is unlikely".

Considering both of mine had a range of colourful language at that age, I’d argue that whatever you do, however much you try and be sensible, SOMEONE will complain in this climate, so I’d just use that you think is ‘enough’ ^^

Parents! What's the WORST swearword you'd be comfortable with your 8-12 year old reading in a story? Where do we stand on "arse"? (please be as prissy as you like, I'm trying to balance "word I want to use" with "can I be arsed with the complaints"?)

Certain posters are not beating the allegations that a certain type of British journalist is incapable of extending empathy to anyone other than the 50 or so colleagues they run into at dinner parties, a grace they extend to those 50 people but think minorities & the disadvantaged are unworthy of

Related to the last repost: I really do miss slow burn anything. Not massive interconnected universes, not derivation universes, not clever nods to the past, but just single concept, engaging and compelling ideas. I find myself yearning for the early days of 24.
