My 25 Secrets to Successfully Working from Home with ADHD

Mhmm!

Well, well, well!

Just like I thought but didn't bother to research last night, Russell Myers got the EXCLUSIVE! from THE KP TITANIC about Kate's medical records.

Former healthcare worker tried to sell Kate Middleton's medical records for cash

EXCLUSIVE: A hospital worker has been struck off and sacked after an investigation into claims the Princess of Wales's medical records were

The hospital worker had been cautioned by the ICO for that it described as "the deliberate misuse of highly sensitive personal information" and "a clear breach of trust". The trusted employee, who worked at The London Clinic when the future queen was admitted on January 16, 2024, has been dismissed from their role following an internal investigation, it is understood. The staff member was suspected of attempting to access the Princess’ confidential medical records following her 13-day stay at the hospital, as disturbing rumours concerning her diagnosis and treatment were spread on social media by sick trolls. The Mirror broke the world exclusive on March 19, 2024, which sent shockwaves through the hospital and Kensington Palace and posed serious questions over the safety of the royal family ’s personal data.

"Attempting to access." "Spread on social media by sick trolls."

What other talking points did the Head of Press Crisis Manager give you for your article, Russell?

Attempting to access ≠ actual access. Except I can watch everyone pretending that they're the same thing.

But then, Russell, if you weren't doing THE KP TITANIC's propaganda work, you wouldn't be using the phrase "sick trolls." The comms team at THE KP TITANIC know what they were doing when they got YOU to repeat their propaganda points on television.

Starting at 4:15

I think there were obviously levels that the police would have got involved in. Uh, speaking to the Information Commissioner's Office yesterday, they they were satisfied that that, uh, that that caution and that, um, you know, the the the issues have sort of had a line drawn under it. The Princess of Wales could have taken it to a civil trial, but I don't think we'll be having that. I think they want to move on for sure.

How did you know to talk to the Information Commissioner's Office this week, Russell? Did someone give you a tip off? Perhaps someone working at THE KP TITANIC's comms team told you everything was complete, two years later? Or did you just call them on the regular once every two months asking for an update?

It's very convenient timing for this to be happening on the prime PR days--Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday--before William's birthday, which also happens to be Father's Day.

Can't wait for William to show off how he's the BESTEST DAD EVAH on Sunday!

Okay so by playing my instrument I can lure the drow onto the bridge and kill her by taking out a support. But that aggros two whole rooms, and that's too many goblins to deal with before one of them gets to the drum that aggros the entire camp. So if I cast silence on the drum, they won't be able to use it. But they treat silence like vandalism so will aggro over it anyway. From the other side of the bridge, it's out of Shadowheart's casting range for Silence, but she can't jump across if she gets stuck, so I have to have her on the other side of the bridge. Then I have Lae'zel cast...

What is the First Order’s endgame?

So, here’s something I’ve been wondering after reflecting a little more on The Force Awakens: what is the First Order’s ultimate strategy or plan? I mean, beyond being EEEVIL or trying to take over the world in a very vague Pinky and the Brain sort of way. What are they really trying to do?

The Empire’s plan was pretty clear from the first movie: control ALL THE THINGS -- destroy those pesky Rebels, crush dissent, seize power, control all the beings and all the resources. (Yes, evilly. But that’s kind of inherent in that level of hunger for power and control.)

From that SpaceNazi rally scene with Hux, it seems that the First Order seems to want something similar. But their actions don’t seem to make a lot of sense to that end, particularly their use of the Starkiller weapon. Starkilller is supposed to be a giant improvement on the Empire’s Death Stars (actually, just bigger), but if the First Order wants the same thing as the Empire, using it over and over is counterproductive to the power and control they seek.

With the Empire and the Death Star, it’s basically the nuclear arms race: you have a powerful enough weapon to blow any planet that disobeys to pieces, you do an effective demonstration on one of the core planets (that just happens to have been a giant thorn in your side and a major funder of the Rebellion) to show you mean business, and everyone else pees their pants so badly that they are more easily controlled. You don’t go around blowing up a bunch of planets in quick succession, because that dilutes the power of your scary weapon.

But that’s exactly what the First Order did with Starkiller: blew up not one planet, but the entire Hosnian System, then targeted another system within a day or so. By destroying the seat of government, they also obliterated all the beings, natural resources, and riches that were on that world -- likely including a lot of wealthy individuals who would bankroll a First Order that catered to their whims. And if they keep doing that for more and more worlds (which seemed to be the intended pattern before Starkiller was destroyed), gaining power and control is pointless, because there are no resources to control. They would control nothing.

It’s not like the Empire would’ve blown up Coruscant, even if there were a secret rebel base somewhere there. They didn’t blow up Corellia, which had a ton of rebel recruits; you think they were going to destroy the planet that built all their ships? Alderaan was never going to bend to their will, so their resources were expendable as far as the Empire was concerned. 

So I’m back to the original question: what’s the First Order’s endgame? Or is it the same as the Empire’s, and they are just really bad at achieving it?
