Nathan Newby set to receive George Medal for stopping a potential atrocity with an act of kindness
A hospital patient who managed to talk a man out of detonating a bomb in a maternity wing said the would-be attacker “asked for a cuddle” before standing down.
Well, I’ve talked two mentally ill neighbors out of stabbing each other before, had to physically get between the both of them, when they both had knives… but that takes the cake as far as conflct de-escalation goes.
This is the guy you want training the police.
Not ex-IDF mercs, as is shockingly common.
It’s fucking real. People, and not just men, but people in general, need more attention. It doesn’t have to be physical, not everyone wants that, but just a simple, genuine, “Hi, how ya’ doin’?”
No. I want an actual cuddle, or I missalign all the floor tiles.
You have 48 hours to reply.
I appreciate the sentiment, but from my learning it seems more likely we just need to start teaching men how to live a life of solitude, no one really wants us around.
Then your learning is teaching you bullshit designed to isolate you and push you yet further into the toxic masculinity circlefuck.
It’s true that no-one likes a misogynistic, self-entitled prick though. If you were actually suggesting that you’re upset that that shit is largely seen for the pathetic attempt to hide one’s inadequacies and insecurities that it is, you won’t find as much sympathy for that as you hoped.
Wow, that was a lot of assumption in a small package.
Then your learning is teaching you bullshit
I cant directly refute that admittedly because thats something thats more confirmed or denied through direct experiance. That being said, my direct experiance through my entire life would seem to refute your point.
designed to isolate you and push you further into toxic masculinity
Thats much easier to refute.Unless you are stating someone designed my life(which there is an argument to be made, thats why i hate capitalism) then no one designed my education. School had 2 classes in my entire education that actually taught me new information, other than that I am entirely self taught. The differance is that I seek out all information at all times, even information that conflicts with my beliefs. Devils advocates are important because they point out falicies, but I will admit i dont appreciate people genuinely holding atrocious views.
It’s true that no-one likes a misogynistic, self-entitled prick though.
True
If you were actually suggesting that you’re upset that that shit is largely seen for the pathetic attempt to hide one’s inadequacies and insecurities that it is, you won’t find as much sympathy for that as you hoped.
Well, im not entirely sure what “that” is but its safe to assume “that”'s not the case. Im… not really going to waste much time really paraing out what you mean here since its clear there has been a misunderstanding.
The few friends that I do have are effectively siblings. They quite literally have the keys to my house and free reign to everything I own. I would open up to them about anything, and they are the exact same way with me. I am completely open to sharing things with strangers, and I am open to having strnagers open up to me. Im not super great at comforting people unfotunately, but I am a great listener and from what I can tell a rare few enjoy that.
The issue is that that has lost me an incredible amount of potential friends. Ive had friends for years, and when they have a bad moment I ask if they want to talk about it. Men think thats gay and distnace themselves from you, women think youre flirting and want to get in their pants. Everyone oreaches caring about others, but everytime I ask how people are doing they just say “im good” no matter what. When I give any indication that I actually care, they think im flirting. Thats why I dont flirt, its fucking annoying how basic empathy is seen as disgusting.
I try to come up with solutions and it seems the general response i get both online and in person is that women are just over men. Its not their problem anymore, and quite frankly thats fair. Men dont want to bond with other men, and theres this little thing called consent that prevents me from forcing my beliefs on community onto others. So… no community. No one wants my input, no one wants my problems, no one wants me around. Im not really interested in sympathy for that, this isnt me throwing a pity party. Its… fine. Its not great, its not terrible. I just need to look out for myself, do what I can, help those I can, and accept when my help simply isnt wanted. Im never going to force my beliefs on anyone, but if you attempt to take my rights or force me into servitude I will certainly defend myself. If someone wants me in their life they can make that known, but let me tell you, it would be a losing bet. The only reason this post exists isnt because of manosphere bullshit. If you think they care about you, you missed the entire point of this post. This post exists because its the hard truth. It doesnt make it easier, but it does save you a lot of misguided effort.
Edit:lmfao, guy opens up about his problems. Everyone ignores, downvotes, preaches caring, and moves on. I swear, fucking clowns, every last one of you.
That’s… Depressing.
Quick, someone tell Trump about the George Medal. Say it’s the biggest award.
Bro, the guy is literally trying to bring about The Rapture before his term ends because he’s afraid of going to prison. Looks like nobody told him that most religions are about accountability.

can you elaborate pls?
Look at everything he’s done so far:
- Sabotaged public health
- Sabotaged environmental protection
- Sabotaged international relations
- Sabotaged economy and taxation
- Sabotaged internal stability
- Instigated violence with every decision, saying, or act
- Just started another war in the Middle East with Israel as the fulcrum.
- Netenyahu has been offending quite literally the entire world, and recently said “you’re letting the bad guys win” to the EU when they are reluctant to join the war. Not that exact citation but here’s a random one I just found with a quick search: https://en.haberler.com/netanyahu-explaining-why-we-struck-iran-we-are-the-19618702/
Does this seem irrational to you? Well, it’s not if you put on your detective hat and consider them religious nuts trying to bring about the apocalypse by fulfilling the requirements themselves.
- God redeems the Jewish people from their captivity that began with the Babylonian captivity, in a new Exodus (Kibbutz Galuyot)
- God returns the Jewish people to the Land of Israel
- God restores the kingly House of David and the Temple in Jerusalem
- God appoints a regent from the House of David (i.e., the Messiah) to lead the Jewish people and the world and usher in the Messianic Age, which is characterised by justice, righteousness, and peace
- All the gentile nations recognize Israel’s God as the only true God and gather to the Mount Zion
- God resurrects the dead and judges all souls (and sends some for a year to Gehinnom)
- God creates a new Heaven and new Earth
Christianity: There are multiple passages in the Bible, both Old and New Testaments, which speak of a time of terrible tribulation such as has never been known, a time of natural and human-made disasters on an awesome scale. Jesus said that at the time of his coming, “There will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever will be. And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect’s sake, those days will be shortened.” [Matt 24:21–22]
Islam: (Sunni and Shia versions differ on some details, because Shia belief centres on “The Mehdi” character)
- A huge black cloud of smoke (dukhan) will cover the earth.[note 3]
- Three sinkings of the earth, one in the East.[note 3]
- One sinking of the earth in the West.[note 3]
- One sinking of the earth in Arabia.[note 3]
- The false messiah—anti-Christ, Masih ad-Dajjal—shall appear with great powers as a one-eyed man with his right eye blind and deformed like a grape. Although believers will not be deceived, he will claim to be God, to hold the keys to heaven and hell, and will lead many astray.[82] In reality, his heaven is hell, and his hell is heaven. The Dajjal will be followed by seventy thousand Jews of Isfahan wearing Persian shawls.[note 4]
- The return of Isa (Jesus), from the fourth sky, to kill Dajjal.[83]
- Ya’jooj and Ma’jooj (Gog and Magog), a Japhetic tribe of vicious beings who had been imprisoned by Dhul-Qarnayn, will break out. They will ravage the earth, drink all the water of Lake Tiberias, and kill all believers in their way. Isa, Imam Al-Mahdi, and the believers with them will go to the top of a mountain and pray for the destruction of Gog and Magog. God eventually will send disease and worms to wipe them out.[note 5][84]
- The sun will rise from the West.[85][86][87]
- The Dabbat al-ard, or Beast of the Earth, will come out of the ground to talk to people.[note 6]
- The second blow of the trumpet will be sounded, the dead will return to life, and a fire will come out of Yemen that shall gather all to Mahshar Al Qiy’amah (The Gathering for Judgment).[88]
Now look at these as allegories. How would a group of zealots interpret them?
Who are you trying to torture by having trump cuddle them???
Whoever stops it might get some kind of award…
One of them was just sad, the other is deranged with greed & addled brain.
So that’s all I have to do?
So, we need state-run, free brothels.
That’s the solution to mass shootings?
It sounds more like the guy just needed care. State run brothels might make the situation worse.
How? Seems like a great employment opportunity for incels and cops and ice after we lay them all off.
I think we need to not worry about how effective it might be but just implement it and see. Its to important. Also we can fund it with money taken from the military budget. We need to literally make love and not war.
There was a Grey’s Anatomy episode about this
Which one died in that episode?
A bunch of extras and a guest star. I think, it’s been a while.
Dr. Gray Anatomy but they brought him back in a later episode by explaining that it was actually his twin brother that died in the explosion.
no he needs the psychiatric ward
He needs what psych wards should be, not necessarily what they are. At the moment he would’ve benefited from one though. Psych wards are currently often a traumatic experience designed to keep you alive and not hurting anyone and to ideally set you up with resources at the end.
As they currently stand, a person who is isolated, struggling, and feeling suicidal or homicidal in that mental space going to a psych ward is likely to go in, spend a few days calming down in an isolating and uncomfortable experience, and be returned to the life that led them there. Situations like these are ultimately different from mental health crises that can be solved or have their start pharmaceutically or with medical intervention, which is where modern psych wards excel. This needs to be seen as much more similar to a suicide attempt in nature in order to stop situations like it before they happen

this is uk news you gentle dunce
I think I’m gonna make “the worlds on fire turds” part of my work email signature
Are the turds on fire, or the worlds (plural)?
I like to think that the author’s intended message was that the plural worlds are resting on turds made of fire. Metaphorically, it kinda speaks to the spiciness of life itself and contrasts that with poop-planets.
Lol that is a great interpretation
Guess what I tagged you as?
Is the last word “Cocopuffs?”
“It feels good don’t it… that warm embrace”
Yeah he just wanted a snuggle
They were certainly words.
Man, you just made me feel smarter by writing something so supremely idiotic.

A maternity ward, no where close to people responsible for raping children…
you would be surprised what pediatricians like to do
Crossword puzzles? The Electric Slide? TikTok challenges? Don’t leave me hanging.
apparently they like to downvote folk who point out that they rape children
Do you have actual data or are you just typing words online to see yourself talk?
Pediatricians are mandated reporters and are often the ones reporting abuse. I’m very curious about the offending rate.
yeah why would the abusers position themselves as the ones to report the abuse. that makes absolutely no sense. and police officers never commit crimes.
i can get you a saddle for a unicorn while you wait.
So you don’t have any data and are just typing words online to see yourself talk.
i see news reports every day of new pediatricians being convicted. go dig them up yourself
Do you mean politicians? I see a lot of those articles. Or maybe pastors?
