I’m not sure I follow you. Can you explain

\\ Hello future essay writers, I hope you have accrued enough credits to keep your crate cool tonight!\\
Yeah I feel this. “Failed experiment” implies, to me, that we should forget this avenue of thought and go back to what we had before.
“Outdated concept” might have been better?
Either way we’re all in agreement fundamentally
crapwittyname@feddit.ukto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Kevin Spacey calls for the release of the 'Epstein files'English11·3 days agoWhy though? Why is it assumed that people will boycott a show/movie if it has a known paedophile in it, while brands/political parties with a mass-sex-offender at the helm are just peachy?
They use computers, or so I’m told.
Is that Northern Ireland? Could well be where “geg” comes from if so!

The Scouse British dialect has a nice term for this: “Geg out”. As opposed to “Fred is gegging in”, used when someone is trying to implicate themselves or become part of the group/conversation.
Someone involving themselves when they shouldn’t be? Two syllables: Geg. Out.
No idea where it comes from but I heard it a lot in my youth. Forsomereason.
crapwittyname@feddit.ukto A Boring Dystopia@lemmy.world•In 6 hours it will be illegal to say "I support Palestine Action" in the UK, with a sentence of up to 14 years in prison.4·14 days agoThis is actually a big deal. They’ve been proscribed as terrorists in the same way as ISIS, Hezbollah, Atomwaffen etc.
They are a direct action protest group, and they are criminals (at least the members that vandalised property) but they aren’t terrorists. And now, under UK law, expressing support for them is an offence. This is a huge misuse of terrorism legislation. 27 people were arrested yesterday for recording their support for Palestine Action.
relevant for ENGLAND at least
It’s still relevant for England at least, there is a pretty close and probably casual relationship between population density and Brexit voting. Rural areas tended to vote Brexit, cities didn’t.
I’m on the spectrum so I can neither tell nor give a shit! The soundness of what you’re saying is most important to me.
