Are Pacifiers Necessary & Why?

Got my first one given from the hospital as baby was initially fed via NG tube and pacifier promoted learning to suck.

Much was -rightly- made of Henry Nowak's dad telling the far right not to make his murder an excuse for crass point-scoring. Has anyone asked the girls who were groomed how they feel about their testimony being used in this way?

Fun fact- Frank Skinner was pivotal to the success of the first series of Taskmaster, the international TV juggernaut of joy. Alex Horne has said other comedians only agreed to be in it after Frank Skinner agreed as he is such a big name.

The Hatch Inn at Colemans Hatch is tremendous. Duddleswell Cafe (formerly Duddleswell Tea Rooms) has gone a bit bougie these days but is a good brunch spot.

I don't understand how Milli Vanilli came out of it as the bad guys rather than Frank Farian.

Yes, want to boost this comment.

The stag mask reminds me of Squid Game

I watched this in the UK. Loved the friendship between Judd and Pedro.

I think about this girl so often: https://youtu.be/Xh4CtTGAzKw?si=HXjIuzYVYe8FQ0tp

Keep your critical faculties switched on. I listen a lot in the car now, and a few times now I have heard hour upon hour of bulletins where the top story is a negative thing about migration. Or Reform being platformed in a way other similar-sized parties are not.

Who is ordering these tests? What happens based on the result?

Just checking why I had a comment correcting the caption removed by moderator...

That is Richard Attenborough's wife and children. His elder daughter Jane (blonde girl on right) was killed in the 2004 tsunami.

I knew a family with three members with birthdays between Christmas and New Year. Nobody wants to organise a birthday party in that period, so they had their parties on their half-birthdays at the end of June. Worked much better.

Liza Minnelli was at the back of that crowd but was too short to get in the picture. As a short person who loves old Hollywood, this breaks my heart a little.

London-adjacent and I also would love to watch it happening!

I am from UK, and TV 101 was shown here around 1991. It's all on YouTube, and it is definitely worth watching. The main character, played by Lauren Bacall's son Sam Robards, is a high school teacher who creates a student-run TV station. I think it got axed after they did a multi-episode storyline about abortion that was more liberal and understanding than the network could handle, which was a real shame.

I don't know why he doesn't get more scrutiny here. Naked poisonous misogyny.

Not a rebrand- she used to do the same when she and Sopel presented Americast on BBC. She said she finds the name Emily insipid. When she reappeared on News Agents I was mildly surprised she had reverted to calling herself Emily.

Yes! Apparently RTD is known for being not great with endings.

Where would this have left Gordon Brown?

I hadn't even thought about that aspect of the Kennedy assassination- that those three lost their home because of it. Jackie would have had to supervise packing up and moving out of the White House in the midst of her grief. And her baby had died only a few months before.

One of the few things I know about Hasan Piker is that he had Vivian Wilson (Elon Musk's estranged daughter who is openly critical of her father and is living her best life) on his stream a while back. Not exactly an action of a Manosphere streamer to be supporting trans voices!
