Looks like Greenpeace may have won big - a company supplying 40% of the world's palm oil claims it will "map and monitor all its palm oil suppliers in a bid to "step up the effectiveness" of its 'no deforestation, no peat, no exploitation' (NDPE) policy".https://www.businessgreen.com/bg/news/3067932/potential-breakthrough-palm-oil-giant-wilmar-steps-up-no-deforestation-efforts [https://www.businessgreen.com/bg/ne...iant-wilmar-steps-up-no-deforestation-efforts]

Money was applied vigorously to the subject until assholish behavior was observed." 3: "I worked hard for this money!" S: "This occurred in 100% of our trials." 4: "Side effects of money may include loss of empathy, poor taste in sweaters and a tendency to co-opt nearby governmental institutions." "The government is too big!"

Actual quote time:"The Democrats, are saying loud and clear that they do not want to build a Concrete Wall - but we are not building a Concrete Wall, we are building artistically designed steel slats, so that you can easily see through it....
....It will be beautiful and, at the same time, give our Country the security that our citizens deserve. It will go up fast and save us BILLIONS of dollars a month once completed!"

@porsupah [https://lgbt.io/@porsupah] I find it hilarious that he's even trying to imply that this expensive as all **** plan that he has for a giant wall that would take an extreme amount of resources to construct could possibly save us ANY money.

Content warning: Trump, wall, WTF, funny?

@porsupah [https://lgbt.io/@porsupah] And the best part is that it, even implying he somehow manages to get the thing built, exactly the way he wants it, there are still boats, planes, and heck, people can climb walls, too. So in the most optimal of circumstances, it ultimately fails at its intended purpose of preventing illegal immigration (which isn't even an actual problem? It's just people being racist. Illegal immigrants don't steal jobs.) It's a waste of time and resources all around.

@porsupah [https://lgbt.io/@porsupah] I think it was something like £5. 8 orders around $50 of stuff and the bill was around €56. For what it’s worth, I ordered a bunch of arm warmers and gloves too to offset the chance of the socks not fitting. A dear friend of mine has spoken highly of them. I can let you know how their sizing works as soon as my order comes in. I think @barrow [https://queer.garden/@barrow] is close to being able to do the same pretty soon.

So, the B cup I bought way back had two eye/hook fasteners. Fair enough. My more recent D has three.The new DD has four. O.oWhat on earth are they like at the point of F and above? Do we need trained handmaidens to carefully sequence an elaborate fastening order, lest catastrophe erupt?

@porsupah [https://lgbt.io/@porsupah] Pretty sure I got something like that from Charing Cross. It was a while ago and I didn't pay much attention when I filled it out but the autism diagnostic questions and weird body-parts checklist seem familiar.

@porsupah [https://lgbt.io/@porsupah] After the intake paperwork (which came about six months after the referral in my case) but well before the first appointment. There was no meaningful discussion of wait times at the intake presentation, beyond some grumbling about under-funding.

@porsupah [https://lgbt.io/@porsupah] Probably best to get a referral anyway and keep your options open, but I'm sure you know that. I would have waited longer before putting in mine, but all the advice was "wait times are absurd - get yourself on the list as soon as humanly possible".
