It amazes me how many reports still speak about him as if he was even vaguely normal for a politician adhering to some level of democracy… He stated clearly he’d be a dictator prior to being re-elected and that’s exactly how he’s been behaving!
Don’t worry, he won’t run for presidency…he’ll just take it, just as he said he would before he got in this time. But yeah, the sooner he’s gone the better, at least the rest of the world will be able to manage the next cretin that’d take his place a little better. Good luck to you…you’re gonna need it, as will the rest of us!
PS Jeff Minter, is that you?! ;)
The men are probably too scared of him! Many women are, sadly, used to abuse from men so it may not be much of a change for them :/ I doubt the organisation would explicitly choose to wind him up given his tendency to sue, but the female reporters may take some pleasure in seeing him show how weak and feable he really is!
A very useful idiot…to some…
That’s far too forgiving. A blunt spoon should be used.
I see The Silence, does that count?
I once got annoyed that my apparently OK password wasn’t being accepted so went with fuckaduck plus some numbers!
Great advice, especially consistentcy with your behaviour!
Great advise! Both points equally!
A loving home & understanding that not all dog-dog interactions are good. Ensure they have a way out if they’re not happy with any other dog.
Yep, good advice, give a treat for any need to crate or shut away as they won’t understand what you’re doing.
Definitely look up hand signals over voice signals! They’ll never understand what you say!
What are you training it to do?
‘Good’ behaviour? Or some tricks/performances?
There’s similarities, but differences also.
Generally; remember that the dog will never understand what you say, but will have an idea as to your intonation/how you feel when you speak to it. It may even pick up if you’re feeling stressed by something unrelated to it.
Treat it as a family member, that’s how it sees you. Be careful with play, some biting is natural when young as they have no hands so can laern to use their mouth similarly as you do your hands, so if young, let them try things, but teach them to stop if it gets too frequent.
Don’t shout, it’s like barking to them & they may interpret as support for their behaviour. Whispering close to them can be surprisingly calming!
Your examples are good…but you should reward the 4th whilst training. but also it’s better to not conisider any behaviour to be ‘bad’ as the dog has no such concept and does not understand anything you say or think. They should therefore never be ‘punished’.
Also how is the 1st working? You reward it for trying and giving up? It runs the risk of rewarding trying anyway. Reward after responding to an instruction like ‘stop’ or ‘down’ is better.
This is very good! Train yourself, not the dog! Combine with the below.
A dog is not a toy, machine or servant. It is a living animal and has wants and feelings just like you.
Respect it.
Give it attention, a family, care. Ignore stereotypes. It is your child.
It never behaves badly as it has no concept of such a thing and remember that it does not understand English (or whatever language you speak).
I should’ve recognised it, but for the super low down view & more modern adjacent building! I used to live in Eastbourne where there’s a few still standing. Where’s this one?
I’ll be in the wheelie bin out back. I’ll tell you how much fun I had when they emptied the hairy food scraps that’d been trampled into the floor (collected from other film screenings of course) onto me and you’ll be jealous.
Igneous rock lover enters the chat!
(Waiting to be shot down for my geological ignorance!)
It’s as if someone has been telling a tale that there’s been some kind of 50-50 conflict over the past 80+ years…
Quite possibly, I’m a devout athiest so don’t even begin to think in any religious or spiritual terms (could you tell?!)
But yes, I certainly agree with that statement without argument. Thanks for the discussion :)
Oh I totally get that with the mainstream media as they’re nearly all owned by his pals. But the World Socialist Website didn’t strike me as being in that group. I could well be wrong!
