That's the way to go if you can get it. We don't have that option sadly. I looked at the ingredients list on some frozen chips the other day and couldn't believe what I was seeing. Something like a dozen items when all you need is spuds and oil. It's mental what they're passing off as food.

It's massive. Part of my work looks at how kids are doing in school, and working with people from an educational and also a health specialism. Lock down has caused untold damage, and part of the remedy is to diagnose kids asap. For me, that's a huge benefit to these kids, and one reason why we're seeing more diagnoses. I agree that SM and gaming are huge societal issues, causing all sorts of unrealistic world views and expectations, as well as isolation and an inability to socialise and integrate. Whether that is a causative factor in MH and neuro divergence I don't know, but it certainly doesn't help these kids.

Yep. Bread is a nightmare. If we buy it, it's crosta and mollica wraps with just the normal/basic bread ingredients, Jason bread, or part baked rolls as they have minimal ingredients. The rest are packed with chemicals and unknown crap.

On the first highlighted part, if the underlying issue is depression, then anti depressants are an appropriate solution. I think you're confusing sadness/low mood with clinical depression. On the second highlighted part, none of us know what is genuine or not. As to the remainder, you seem to disagree that identifying and addressing issues is a negative. Gloucester put it well above.

I don't disagree on the big pharma/ business point, and I'm with Turkish on the cycle of ultra processed food making people ill, and medication fixing them up points. However, I don't see the link between psychiatrists and psychologists diagnosing MH and neuro divergence issues, and the pharma business. It's a sad reality that more youngsters are suffering with these issues (the lock downs have played a huge part). Devils advocate questions - is it a good or bad thing that medics are picking up, diagnosing, and addressing these issues in youngsters? Or are you suggesting that medics are mis diagnosing to keep the pharma business going?

There would be some kind of test. It's academic anyway as fortunately we're more civilised than to reintroduce a death penalty.

Quite. I can't quite imagine the judiciary sitting there, calculator in hand, making a live or die decision.

The cost of incarcerating people is not a good reason to kill them instead.

It's the reality of prison life for people like him.

I'm not sure how you rehabilitate someone who'll never see the light of day again.

Everyone can have an opinion on this, and I think this is one of those issues where there isn't a right or wrong view. Personally I'd rather the guy has a horrendous life in prison for the rest of his days, but I have no issue with anyone wanting to see him strung up.

There's no right or wrong answer on this, but none of us can say what's best for the families. They may prefer to know that he's suffering at the hands of his fellow inmates for the rest of his life. Impossible to know, and thank god we're not one of those parents. It's an utterly appalling case.

I couldn't give a monkeys about US domestic policy. The issue is that other policy decisions will impact us. What's the answer to the question? Acceptable behaviour from a cabinet minister? It's a yes or no.

You overlooked that he is a senior advisor to Trump. A government minister. Would you be cool with a UK cabinet minister having done that?

I'd prefer a long and slow ordeal for monsters like him than the quick way out.

Bless.

I'll reword. It staggers me that anyone would dispute that a blatant nazi salute was a nazi salute.

Yep! It's hilarious how people get wound up about it.

It staggers me that there's still debate about this. It was a nazi salute, clear as day.

I think that's his only get out. Deliberate nazi salute, or an unconscious act as a result of a few lines and testosterone overload. Great options for the lad!

So who other than Hypo thinks that the Musk nazi salute wasn't?

Then what are you banging on about? And it's a forum, I'll comment on your posts regardless of who you intend them for. DM SoG if you want a chat with just him.

That's a stretch. Musk started at the chest and thrust out aggressively. That was with meaning. Twice. If, for example, someone starts a salute at neck or chest height it's potentially very different in it's meaning.

For comparison, please show the starting point and the movement. Thanks.

Me and others are merely commenting on Musk's actions. His intentions and beliefs are unknown, yet you assume them.
