The Sky Q/A is incredibly depressing because people are so stupid. Edit: March 16 1912 - Lawrence Oates, dying member of Scott's South Pole expedition, leaves the tent saying, "I am just going outside and may be some time." Much like the idiot UK population are going to do on June 23rd.

Pissflaps posted:I think the take home message is that many people are unsure about Corbyn's stance on this subject. Possibly because he's been largely irrelevant throughout the referendum campaign. I'm not sure Jeremy Corbyn could be more entertaining to the news than the tories having a slap fight.

Do you go off the register once you go over the age limit? Also is that not included when you apply for your driving license and say "please break me down for spare parts in the event of my unexpected death"?

OwlFancier posted:Do you go off the register once you go over the age limit? No, the Anthony Nolan Trust currently keeps you on the register until you are 60. I used to be on their register, then was taken off after receiving a blood product, but looking at their site now it looks like I would be eligible again were I not an old fossil. Huh.

I seriously don't get why anyone wouldn't want all their poo poo taken for spare parts. I'm dead, build a new human out of me if you want then throw the rest in the trash (or even better, a body farm), what the gently caress do I care.

Some people feel weird about it. I dunno, I'm not Egyptian so I don't think my heart is where my cognitive functions are located so feel free to hack it out and jam it into some other bugger. Actually feel free to do that even if it is the center of cognitive function because then I can become some sort of inverse aztec immortal.

Surely even in that case the transplantee is probably going to be less dead than if they didn't receive the organ.

If that patient is aware of the consequences and consents then I don't really see what the issue is. Although there seems to be a ton of weirdness around what individuals do to their bodies wrt drugs, abortions, etc. etc.

OwlFancier posted:Surely even in that case the transplantee is probably going to be less dead than if they didn't receive the organ. If a recipient were to receive highly risky organ such as the aforementioned example, then there's both a high risk of immediate rejection, coupled with a definite increase of scar tissue either way. An organ needs to be of decent health to prolong the potential of its shelf life within the recipient.

I must have some rare HLA combination because I've been called up every year since I joined for extra blood tests as a possible match. Never actually got to the stage of donating yet though.

My gay european blood has already invaded the UK supply and I signed up for bone marrow as well. Soon. The one-year ban is effectively lifetime, though, isn't it? I mean, what self-respecting gay man doesn't have sex in a year?

John Harris has a good piece on the decline of David Cameron. Mostly calling him a hypocrite and an rear end in a top hat but also delightfully honest about how loving poo poo he's been as a PM.

The take home message is people can't read. Or can't perform critical thinking. Or don't have higher brain function. All of this is bad for Corbyn and humanity and is going to take more than a replacement leader to fix.

The Guardian posted:The other day I re-read the conference speech that helped him win the leadership in 2005 – a tour de force that was inevitably bigger on high-flown rhetoric than detail, but still promised a new kind of conservatism. “The shouting, finger-pointing, backbiting and point-scoring in the House of Commons – that’s all got to go,” he thundered.

According to Brexit that's entirely the fault of Brussels red tape making it increasingly hard for anyone to have a proper summer. Personally I blame Thatcher.

If you want to confront people with numbers: the proportion of EU citizens that were not born in their country of residence is 6.4%, the proportion of UK citizens who were not born here is 6.6%. We are taking more people in than go out, but we're not taking more than our share.
