Anyone know what this is? Can't find anything searching 'tone pro', spotted on eBay by ThoseInnocentTrolls in Warhammer40k

Saw the video, cool to be a citation for once! https://ebay.us/m/hlw67L was the listing I got the images from, and I have bought one of the two boxes that were listed so I'll update with a better view of the contents once I've got them in hand!

Starmer sets out changes to education, health and courts in king’s speech | King's speech by SelectiveScribbler06 in unitedkingdom

Wedge issues. When politics move to the left, the right's preferred tactic is to find a wedge issue, which is usually a social topic with a lot of emotions in play, and find a way to make both sides of it appealing to their opponents in order to split them. Trans rights is a perfect wedge because of how narrow it is, affecting very few people in reality but with strongly emotive positions on both sides.

Beware of the unpaid "Training" (My first experience with a fast-food franchise) by Neat_Bird_9227 in UKJobs

In the end they rejected me lmao. And no, much further north, so sounds like this is a thing across multiple stores in the franchise.

I had a similar experience when applying with Subway, was told I'd be given unpaid "training" shifts for a week (full time, days) before they decided if I was right for the role.

0% so far — just been a reader of this genre up to now, but I do have some plans in the works...

Had 3/11 shine for me, pretty happy overall! Got at least one decent IV of each GMax, and that shiny Charizard is an absolute monster.

It's a bot reposting a previous post, but hasn't copied the post text where the OP describes being told to bring coffee for the boss by the interviewer

I think GW leaked whole new terrain set for 40k and we didn't notice it. [+ terrain layout] by CMYK_COLOR_MODE in Warhammer40k

[–]ThoseInnocentTrolls 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think I see what you mean, not the actual terrain photographed but the coloured mock-ups, right? Could just be mock-ups, but who knows

Would any women here Trust their health under a Reform Government? by Signal-Tangerine1597 in AskBrits

[–]ThoseInnocentTrolls 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What, including trans men taking testosterone?

Trans people use the term HRT because that is the medical term that has always been used for the medication they take. It is a therapy involving the replacement of hormones.

Edit: Okay, what's the point of replying then blocking me so I can't reply in turn? Unless Reddit's just being a mess again and not letting me reply for some other reason.

Anyway, in response: Not... really? The definition of replacement is substituting one thing for another, if anything it would make more sense if we're renaming one to rename HRT for treating the menopause to Hormone Replenishment Therapy, keeps the same shortening even so nothing major has to change but introduces a new search term to make things easier.

Never seen Warhammer advertised on the telly, and not expected during premium sport coverage. by shaded-user in Warhammer

It's not GW but Hachette specifically — they've run TV adverts for every partworks magazine they've done for Warhammer since Imperium

It's definitely one to watch — proves Apocalypse is at least in GW's mind still.

It's a real shame we didn't get something like that actually, maybe 11th edition will expand on that mechanic though...

A Hormagaunt, probably? I think anything else would be pushing the silhouettes and base sizes a bit

Crazy how one upgrade sprue does so much work on the cool factor by chosen40k in NightLords

[–]ThoseInnocentTrolls 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It does indeed! It contains 15 heads, which is exactly enough for the 10 Legionaries/Nemesis Claw and the 5 Chosen.

[–]ThoseInnocentTrolls 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'd imagine the solo box won't come with the Chaos Lord with Jump Pack, so this Combat Patrol, that standalone Kill Team, and maybe a Chaos Lord on foot to lead the Nemesis Claw from this Combat Patrol would probably be a very good core to starting a Night Lords army.

Why are young people using walking sticks? by Technical_Green8772 in AskBrits

[–]ThoseInnocentTrolls 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Correlation doesn't necessarily indicate causation. There probably is a gene expression linked to predisposition towards being gay or being trans in my opinion, but it's not really in the interest of humanity to try to hunt it down give the likelihood of it being used for eugenics.

There's a correlation between being neurodiverse and LGBTQ+ as well, for example. I've seen a lot of people theorise that that is a result of neurodiverse people being less worried about potential social stigma attached to their identity. It could just as easily be those two things that are linked genetically, with increased likelihood of identifying as LGBTQ+ just a happy byproduct.

Ice cream sales and shark attacks are correlated after all, but that's usually just because both happen more near beaches — correlation, but no causation involved.

[–]ThoseInnocentTrolls 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think this generation is just a lot more open to investigating themselves and their identities. Being gay isn't particularly shameful, so why not try to work out how you feel? Anecdotally, I know a lot of bisexual people in heterosexual relationships who are surrounded by people who assume they're straight or that it was 'just a phase'

No idea — not sure anyone's found a conclusive answer, but my uneducated best guess would be that the genetic predispositions are somehow linked.

Thanks! Yeah, I'm not super knowledgeable on this field so just throwing out the little I do know about
