       @itnewsbot Currently I go to Dr, get a shot. Done.This scenario: Will I be able to pick them up in a supermarket?My guess is: No, I'll still have to go to Dr, get a script, go to a chemist, go home, apply patch, keep it dry for three days, dispose of safely.Doesn't shreik 'convenience' so much now, does it?But I'll readilly acknowldge that where it does have potential is delivery of vaccines etc to places without ready access to trained medics. eg delivery of aid programs.#gadgets #JustSaying

       @news I guess from the link that it's tea? Which is a lot less gross than my first thought, which was: "saliva?"

       @itnewsbot My initial take-away from this is that somebody who went to university with dreams of digging up ancient artefacts and dinosaur bones is now employed digging up old poo. Fascinating though it may be, I'm guessing #NotTheDream ? 🙂 #JustSaying

       @lowqualityfacts And you know you can believe them. After all, they were smart enough to invent chocolate, during the Neolithic.

       @lowqualityfacts Oh, sorry, there's been a typo in the brochure.  That should read: "a baby, a kimono, and a dragoon."

       @lowqualityfacts I've got no qualifications since high school, and I once lost an argument with a potato. (Even after hours of debate I couldn't get it to admit defeat)  So I'm pleading not guilty. What was the question?

       @lowqualityfacts Or perhaps irony deficient?

       @AbsoluteMemery I know it's intended to be humour, and even though I  don't believe its message, and sigh at its clumsy generalising, I do 'get' it. But what went through my mind was: ...----Is it revealing something that the dichotomy used is "Men" and "Girls"?Not boys and girls, or men and women, or male and female, but an unevenly powered hierarchy. An image reinforced by the image by the archetypal male gazing fondly at his little, toy-like possessions, a "loving wife" and his (potential for) offspring.----Why yes, I have read some feminist texts in my chequered literary history, how did you know?

       @hauserfoto (sigh). As a some-time sailor, part of me wants to let this just go by. The other part is saying "how? ... what? ... why?"So, I'll limit myself to just one observation ... the sails are on the wrong side of the masts.
