I think it’s a good idea
European countries could meet to try to remove customs and excise and harmonise their taxation and product standards between these neighbours, all these things that hold back trade, and they could allow freer movement of labour so individual countries don’t suffer skills shortages, and even allow people reciprocal rights to settle where they want. Wouldn’t that be great? It has so much upside lm surprised Britain didn’t propose it earlier

In the back issues from the 1980s(1990s?) of the British Journal of Psychiatry there was a letter asking if anyone else had encountered a patient who's paranoid delusions centred on the new domestic satellite TV dishes.

"The only thing known to go faster than ordinary light is monarchy, according to the philosopher Ly Tin Wheedle.
He reasoned like this: you can't have more than one king, and tradition demands that there is no gap between kings, so when a king dies the succession must therefore pass to the heir instantaneously. Presumably, he said, there must be some elementary particles -- kingons, or possibly queons -- that do this job, but of course succession sometimes fails if, in mid-flight, they strike an anti-particle, or republicon.
His ambitious plans to use his discovery to send messages, involving the careful torturing of a small king in order to modulate the signal, were never fully expanded because, at that point, the bar closed."

If I’m brutally honest, neither did the books.
And I’m not just saying that because the way kindles handle footnotes is completely unsuited to his style; the later books really did lack something. Maybe it was stories that didn’t involve Tiffany Aching.
Also, Jeremy Irons was infinitely better suited to play a predatory flamingo than Charles Dance despite the latter having the better voice. I can only hope they get him back for any future adaptations, assuming there are any after the steaming pile of shit that was The Watch.

You might not know about, and may enjoy, the short story, "Theatre of Cruelty".
He's been rather lackadaisical since his death.
His kid, Ri, has his permission to write more DW books, but says she won't - only spin-offs, side-stories.
It'll be interesting to see what happens with that, 'coz she's quite good at writing; she's done various video games and shit.[1].

Irons or Dance - I don't really care for the video adaptations, so I have no opinion. I like the books. I don't exactly hate the movies, but they don't float my boat.

Hard to separate the two in many instances.
You're right of course. Ablism is not okay.
That said, I am increasingly of the opinion that right wing bullshittery is kind of a mental illness or developmental disability. A combination of paranoia, xenophobia, fear of change, anal retentiveness/greed, lack of empathy, lack of sympathy, unquestioning/uninquiring, stuck in the low autonomy/high authority stage of development....
One day, when we're on a path to discovering a cure, calling someone vile for being right wing could be seen as ablism.

Authoritarianism as a trait is not associated with any political leaning.

In the Criticism section of hthat article, whoever is levelling those criticisms seems to have missed the most important point
- the totalitarian extremes are shit. It's far less important to categorise how they got to their totalitarianism, than it is to recognise the fact that totalitarianism is, in itself, fucking shite, and should be stopped.
By any and all means necessary, of course. Round up those dangerous totalitarians. Possibly we could use some sort of camps? I'm not sure yet, I'll have a think.

I was talking about the stage of development
where children unquestioningly respect authority. It is my contention that people who unquestioningly respect the authority of institutions (like the monarchy, aristocracy, class system, etc) are kind of stuck in this state, and/or that institutions exploit this trait for the sake of maintaining power.

I doubt it, it isn't a specific developmental stage I'm aware of.
Much more likely it is a result of a parental style. How they interact with the child; this starts from day 1 and is often unconsciously learnt, so the resulting adult likely has no memory of it.
When a stressful event or series of events occur, they can repeat the parental style and then justify it from a societal/political/upbringing/etc. point of view, after the behaviour.
People often make decisions based on feelings then rationalise the decision or find a prior rationale that seems to fit the decision.
This is one of the many reasons why everything is messed up, or is that the depression speaking or the pills, upbringing, politics, anxiety, who is saying this and what do I mean by who, sometimes I write different things, how much of that is a different 'I' or a learnt idea I claim as my own or is claimed by someone, who is this 'I' character anyway?

There's more than a hint of This Old Tony's style in that
Definitely going to try some of the tips in there - I've never done a really thin burger before. I usually do them full blast to get them crusty on the outside, then turn off the hob and put a lid on for a few minutes so they heat through - if you get it right they stay really moist and tender.

I'm more of a fan
of deeply browning a nice thick patty. Something to chew on. I make my own mince and I've been putting tiny cubes of polish smoked pork fat in it, really keeps it moist and adds a lovely flavour.
Smash burgers to me are what you want after the pub. Full of cheese and a bit burnt.

I do something similar
But I then put two burgers together with a lump of Cornish blue cheese in the middle and cook it on the BBQ . So it becomes a big lump of mince mixed with polish pork far and blue cheese in the middle. Highly brilliant but positively heart killing
