I mean, you could blame a wasp for stinging you, but what's it going to do? It's a wasp.

Given they're lying about casualty rates and killing reporters I'd say that's a easy ten.

Edit: I don't have any answers. I stole it from https://feddit.uk/c/okmatewanker because I thought it deserved a bigger audience.

I'm a bit late to the party here because I haven't needed Postman for a while, but how is it okay that now we have to LOG IN TO POSTMAN and send our API requests to them for them to store on their own cloud?

Thanks to the glorious shovelling of Classic Who onto BBC IPlayer, I have been enjoying a glut of mid-80s classic Who.

It struck me how many of the CBaker-McCoy era stories are dystopian tales, reflecting the pro-establishment neo-captialist society that the writers felt was being inflicted on them.

Varos, Paradise Towers and Terra Alpha (of Happiness Patrol) are obvious examples; Necros (Revelation of the Daleks) and is a particularly nasty one. Even Trial of a Timelord was, at its heart, a tale of authoritarianism and narrative control.

Modern Britain is clearly in another phase like the 80s. If anything, the authoritarianism is more extreme, and the government's avarice more naked.

So where are the writers' reactions to that nowadays? Whenever the show has recently attempted to address societal issues, it has been either a direct sermon like Orphan 55 or an incompetent muddle like Kerblam.

Where are the dystopias?

Another thirty or so of these and we can finally stop waiting for Sunak to stop squatting in no.10.

I suspect there's going to be more content coming up sooner than this, but it's good to have dates for the diary.
