The fact that Doherty’s a dick doesn’t change the fact that tethered bottle caps are a pain in the hole and just get in the way without solving any actual problem. Who the fuck opens a plastic bottle and then throws the cap away??? People put them in the recycling separately and they get lost? Really? I put them back on the bottle like a normal person and it all goes into the magic bottle and can return ATM machine.Actaully was driving home yesterday and heard this piece - I kinda thought it was one of the saddest pieces of environmental topic radio i've ever heard. Granted possibly they dragged in the doherty guy to play a role or something as the 'man on the street or whatever' but anywhoo roughly it goes like
Voice guy talks about how people basically have plastic in their balls now and this is a tiny intervention etc etc.
Doherty stooge goes deep on how this minor inconvenience/not inconvenience is a bit much for him, the man on the street.
At no point in the conversation would it be ok to point out that plastic bottles are very much in the 'wants' column and that you actually don't even the need the fucking things. Anywhoo this was a conversation between adults in 2024 where the anti plastic guy basically cant even mention that the things are fucking stupid from the outset, and blokey mcblokerson, secretely looking at pictures of jeremy clarkson under his desk while talking, is here to jeremy clarkson something that is basically a non discussion in terms of things your want to have in your balls.
and most of the comments were poor little old me has to rotate a fucking bottle. It's a very sad place to be when it's 'mild irritation vs. nanoplastic sperm'.
Tethered bottle caps 'make life that little bit more irritating'
Tethered bottle caps are part of an EU directive to harmonise single-use plastic drinks containers with a capacity of up to three litreswww.newstalk.com
Dig up, stupidAmazing. Here Tom, dig deeper

Sociopaths.Loads of people
Sociopaths.
The only TD I can think of that would be able for it is Roderic but he has his hands full, and no one else would want that ministerial post. Maybe a Senator would be a good call?
Ryan is hardly perfect but in fairness to him, he's led the most effective charge in the history of the Greens in terms of getting what they wanted implemented. Has always seemed to me to be basically a well-meaning & pragmatic guy who has acted as a public focal point for a torrent of hatred and derision for several years, on top of the other stresses of the job - I'm not surprised he's had enough & that Martin has ruled herself out, I'd give him a fair bit of credit for attempting to take on the industrial agriculture complex, the airlines etc, surely knowing how much flak he would take on a daily basis.
Maybe that's why he was sleeping on the job at critical times?
