I'm given to understand that Quentin Tarantino was given one by Samuel L Jackson, personally.

Bacterial flagella are also rotary motors! I did an optional module in biophysics as part of my physics degree and I would recommend it to anyone.

I've spent a lot of the week crying. My heart is truly broken for my fellow trans people in the US who no longer feel safe. I feel like things here in the UK will not be so far behind in another five years or so.

ITT: People who think "liberal" means any one single thing.

Liberalism is also quite a broad term, which on its own can only really be said to constitute a belief in "equal rights for everyone including the right to private property". The Liberal Democrats, for example, are so-called because they were formed from the merger of the (classically liberal) Liberal Party, and the Social Democratic Party. They are more like libertarians in the sense that they were broadly pro-market but less authoritarian than the tories, but their policy platform has always been more like something that would be described as social liberalism.

In my experience, the word liberal is generally not used so much in UK politics (outside of the name of the Lib Dems), but if someone self-described themselves as a liberal, I think it would be generally understood as socially liberal rather than libertarian.

Sir, you have insulted my ancestors, and I cannot allow this insult to stand. I challenge you to a duel!

People have known that water fluoridation is an international communist plot to sap and impurity our precious bodily fluids since at least the 50s!

Because using what little influence you have to prevent a trans genocide means you are endorsing Palestinian genocide, and are therefore a fascist. /s
