Greta Thundberg

I was impressed that she'd attempt such a crossing given how rough its been lately. However I'm suspicious there may be a few porkies being told about her progress. They claim to be half way but AIS appears to be off? Can anyone find a current location?

Oh dear!, Arron Banks?

Suffering?

I doubt she enjoys being autistic. I have had contact with a few suffers and some tend to suffer panic attacks and run away to hide. Nowhere to hide on a small boat if she does 'suffer' such an attack.

I could not agree with you more, but it is the changing of wind energy to electrical energy where it all comes apart.

Why do you think you are being charged a surcharge on your energy bills, if these sources are as free as you suggest?

That has nothing to do with the environmental argument in regard to wind energy.

Direct your claim towards the government that has made millionaires out of renewable energy grants (friends of Tories).

And if want to be really upset have a go at the Queen: she makes a tidy sum out of wind turbines that are on the shoreline or in the sea close to the coast.

Good back peddle.

She doesn't appear to be suffering at all. Does she claim to suffer?

Which proves what exactly, have you asked any of them if they actual enjoy being autistic? I already pointed out that many of the people who suffer (or enjoy) being autistic can be very very clever. I have a friend who is dyslexic, which I would suggest is part of the autistic spectrum. He is very, very clever too, but a terrible bore to converse with - he gets so hung up on the tiniest details and becomes so frustrated with himself, his life struggles to read, struggles to write.

Please do not suggest these people enjoy their issues.

I am slightly dyslexic, I can't being obssesive with detail is a part of dyslexia, I would say its a feature of all sorts of people.

Fair point, I expressed it badly -I shouldve used the phrase 'not suffer'.

I posted the list in response to you making the point that Greta may be indoctrinated and merely repeating what she has been told to say.

Mind you, your subsequent posts rather indicate your negative view on Greta Thunberg is due to your leaning towards crimate change denier.

I suspect many people are slightly, probably including myself in my younger days, but like many I managed to overcome it.

I'm not really sure, because I was a natural lefty, forced to right handedness at school, by tieing my left behind my back - that caused me real issues in my early days at school and still causes me left and right confusion.

I am left handed.

The school thing was before my time, but it seems a shocking part of our education history....

I presume you returned to left-handedness though?

 

[motorbiking]

left handed, dyslexic also.

Personally I see nothing wrong with an electric head (sea toilet)

sea water is pumped in. poo goes in the bowl, see water flushes poo in to sea. fish eat the poo.

nowadays even the freshener is bio friendly.

16 year old or 47 year old dwarf, I'm really not sure and it is quite difficult to tell.
Anyway, she (to my mind) clearly has some form of disability that's being exploited by somebody, her parents or others?
I find it quite sickening that climate activists will stoop to exploiting a child with mental challenges to drive their point home. Sick in the extreme.

This should answer your concerns:

Talk about DIYNOT'ers arguing about something they, in the vast majority, know the square root of FA all about.. Shameful.

WTF had being left-handed or dyslexic got to do with being autistic, and how the hell is a list of famously autistic people fit with a condition diagnosed/recognised in the mid 20th century..
