Unherd isn't Twitter (although you can find the same TERFs in both places). Info about site: https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/UnHerd

This is like when supermarkets put the short-dated food in the 'reduced' section: I kinda always expect it to be 'was £3, now 30p', but it's usually 'was £3, now £2.89'

£390 is so close to the retail price for new, that if was going to get one, I'd probably just do that.

I think it's just a desire to indicate some uncertainty about something (like - I'm not an expert, my opinion on whatever could change with time or new information). A full stop seems arrogant somehow.

I realise it's not a good impulse and mostly resist. Mostly ...

(that last one's nothing to do with the above reasoning, it's just a line from Aliens that's stuck in my head).

Oh man, I remember seeing this ages ago and then I could never find it again (I was searching for 'Darth Vader being passive / aggressive' I think). So now I've found it! (but the sacrifice was too great - RIP James Earl Jones)

This is why I always say 'thanks' to GPT when we've finished chatting.
