Well, I have expressed my view.

What's the point from your side of things, if you don't mind explaining?

TBH, despite seeing several batches of a dozen or so notifications about your replies, in recent times for the sake of self-care I have decided to just delete those notifications for the sake of my tender and sensitive soul.

I hope even a crusty and battle-weathered character like you can understand.
About time.

I started doing that ages ago, for the dozens that get sent to me about your replies to me.

It seems you joined a year and a half ago -- or were you here before?

If so, may I ask if RHP used to be more of a hetero-whatever boys' club?

If that were the case, then of course I would appreciate Suzi's efforts to make RHP more inclusive.

The problem is that she seems to be exclusive and controlling in her own way.
For a nuanced thinker, as you clearly are, this seems a little disingenuous and just trying to draw me in so you can criticize my response. It looks like a PM to me - not a post for the forum at large.

Yes I was here before - my first account of many was sciocco (the fool) Joined 26 Jan 05.

Did RHP used to be more of a hetero-whatever boys' club? Not sure where you live - but the world at large is a hetero-whatever boys' club. Where does most of the wealth and power lie?

If you turn on the TV right now and see a person on there with remarkable resources or perhaps with a preponderance of political power - you and I both know that it is very likely that the person is a white male. Likely, not absolute.

The problem is that she seems to be exclusive and controlling in her own way?

Ffs that is all of us. Who among us is not exclusive and controlling in their own way? That is us (the smart people) here in the forums. That is what smart people do and I would guess the people who you want to spend time talking to. You and I are not wasting a huge amount of our time talking to idiots.

I will leave you with this and you can start taking your shots -

How can you not appreciate anyone's efforts to make everything in our lives more inclusive? If that is not your legacy what is. What is more important?

That is an opened ended question not a shot. Not everyone here believes in inclusivity - fair play. What do you believe in?

There was reportedly a chap in Hull who greatly admired yourself, but turns out he had you confused with Danny DeVito.

Sounds like you've been eating your own burgers.

I don't eat burgers anymore except for treat, unlike you who always seem to have burgers on your mind!!! Do you have that tire like waste line?? 😉

I'm not surprised. People who flip burgers for a living are bound to go off them.

Especially in these times, this somehow has me thinking of a Streisand and Diamond remix involving burgers.

This is a bit of a silly comment by you Kevin; if you feel a post has broken the site’s terms, then just use the alert function, which as a subscriber you are permitted to do three times a day.
Oh, come on. Three alerts a day is so limiting, whereas public shaming is so much more gratifying. 😉

I've done nothing to deserve that.
Liar.
