The heart of the issue is that Schofield was corresponding with the employee on SM when he was about 16. (Nothing sexual) He started working with the company after he turned 18 and they commenced sexual encounters at age 19. (Schofields is 61).
There's a video of him 'out to dinner' alone with the boy at 13. They met when he was 10 at a boys theatre school. The teacher who introduced them has been prosecuted for grooming his young students.
There's way more to this than meets the eye.

“if you take the existential risk seriously, as i now do—i used to think it was way off, but now i think it’s serious, and fairly close—it might be quite sensible to just stop developing these things any further, but i think it’s completely naïve to think that would happen.
there’s no way to make that happen.
Dearest Fish Can't we just pull out the plug?
Yep! exactly what I was going to post.
I suppose the worry is that we wouldn't even be aware of it.
Or at least by the time we were it would be too late.
Let's face it, we're pretty easy to fool as a species. If eight overweight pensioners in Warwick with zero education between them can pull it off, the most powerful intelligence on the planet surely can.

Syd I guess Virtual Reality is the great filter in a sense. They are all out there, but plugging into your own personal fantasy kingdom is way too enticing and every intelligent species goes that route before developing interstellar travel.
Funny you should say that.
We went to collect my husband from Heathrow on the train so we essentially travelled right through London.
What struck me was the average age of everyone we saw. I mentioned it to my husband..."Where are all the young people??!! Is it me or does everyone look so old!! I thought as you age you're supposed to feel outnumbered by the young!!"
My husband said "oh they're here all right. They just never leave home." (i.e. They're all plugged in/online/gaming etc etc)

Chalmers & Dennet are the most concerning for me.
If anyone knows how an analytic thinker thinks, it's them. Or those. (Not sure which).
Wonder if A.I. is 'The great Filter'(or the evolutionary leap almost no species is able to navigate successfully) the Fermi Paradox posits?
canada has universal healthcare.
the consensus is that america never will.
can anyone explain why, please?
Thank you Syd!* I was wondering about the elderly. And kids. What about if you're having a baby and loose your job?
What if you have a kid with type one diabetes and you want to set up your own business - say, go self employed as a carpenter. Will you be put off from starting because your kid has a preexisting condition and your insurance will be nuts??
* Great name by the way. Actually 🎶"I Know where syd Barrett lives" 🎶😝🤣He lived in my mums village. Been around there about 1980 with my grandma.

Can someone explain the American Healthcare system, it's strengths and weaknesses and why America, the wealthiest country in the world, does not have universal healthcare free at the point of access, please?
I'd also really like to know what this Obama Care was and why it was so disliked?

🙈 Devastated to learn I share a sense of humour with Lloyd 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Ray Bloody Purchase!! THATS who he reminds me of!!
Except Ray shags everyone else's wife, Lloyd shags everyone but his wife!
in addition to the jws false and misleading denial that rebekah vardy was ever a jehovah's witness, a few other interesting developments occurred that are worth noting:.
1. an article in the last days newsletter reporting on how the jw[.
]org website scrubbed clean its jw 'news' page and produced an entire new glossary of jw terminally meaning for the media:.
They can hope it fades from public attention, but now the law is aware that baptised (& unbaptised) minors are involved in this - let's call it what it is - evil,abusive practice, they are going to struggle to keep their charitable status.
has anybody any information as to the whereabouts or the health of anthony morris ?.
JWleaks subbed! Nice one!
“a spokesperson from dorset coroner's office told the bbc that due to the nature of his death there would be no inquest.
no further details were given on cause of death by the coroner.” https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-65633872.
no "further" details were given?
He was only 46 years old. How can a 46 year old die from 'natural causes'
Very odd statement from Coroner. Definitely of public interest, particularly as S club 7 have some pretty dedicated fans!!😳😜
