So the conclave is just a bunch of dudes hanging out until they decide one of them can probably talk to god? That’s podcasts. You’re describing podcasts.
Just tested this in our household. Male opinion is the right looks (marginally, he thinks it's TOO skinny) and I think the left is SO much more attractive.
Even more fascinating is this tweet that assumes women are lying.

Agreed. I don't like state overreach, and this would be exactly that. Parents/schools need robust approaches to children's use of phones and social media, fine if the government expressed what it felt was good practice, but I'm wary of any blanket rule with no room for context.
Leave school phone bans to head teachers, children's commissioner says bbc.com/news/articles/cly112…
Screenshotted for this year's lesson on conceptions of female biology in ancient greek medical texts. Hint: the idea that being sedentary makes men into women is in there.
Love the lesson content, hate.... whatever this is.
The responses in this thread from Americans who simply cannot believe that huge, gas guzzling, poor cornering (I know that's not universal but 'nippy round a bend' isn't a US design priory let's be honest) cars just... don't appeal to a lot of other territories... 🤦♀️

You know people who respond to headlines rather than what’s actually in the article.
Or take a 20 second clip and draw sweeping conclusions.
Or generally extrapolate a lot from minimal source media.
Is there a modern word for them?
Feels like there must be (other than ‘pricks’).
