Are we keeping the letter c around just because it's cute? Because, lets face it, it's job is already covered by k and s.

100%…so much padding, even in otherwise good books.

I suppose its a "one of the good ones" kind of mentality.

I don’t even think that’s in the Cass report! They’ve just decided because she’s transphobic, the report says whatever they want it to say.

Um, no, they are defined by what you call a napkin.

Just wait until the treadmill laws come back

I bet most areas have at least one.

Butchers and chip shops…still exist???

“It’s a how to guide about cannibalism”

The caffeine IS the pleasure!

Yes exactly…Starmer is not so over-burdened with integrity that I’m comfortable with his government overreaching like that

“Practically, all the govt has to do is grant them bail”

They can’t do that…

Grey…

Sorry, was that an attempt to dispute the fact that bail is set by the judiciary and not the government?

But bail is not under the purview of the government…

What do you mean? 6 months is the initial period but it’s very common and not necessarily illegal for that to be extended.

Will Streeting’s review of mental illness, autism and ADHD just be another Sewell or Cass (gaslighting the nation into agreeing with pre-decided government policy/ideology)?

my great-grandparents arrived in the UK in the 1890s with nothing.
they sold pickles from the front room window, took in laundry, worked as tailors.
their children were nurses, teachers, salesmen.
their grandchildren were professors, designers, opticians, doctors, magistrates, entrepreneurs.

Well, what could be so bad that Trump…TRUMP…is ashamed of it?

Are we quite sure she's a real live person?

Which king do they imagine would have a problem with the "sex district"??

Surely not the one who talked about wanting to be his mistress's tampon...

If they aren’t bigots, why are they threatened by fundamental rights of minority groups at all

Autistic people and immigrants are good actually.

Some of us are a) both b) adorable and c) save our reserved British friends money when they are too shy to challenge mistakes on their restaurant bills and we offer to do it for them.

Screenshot from Kier Starmer’s Twitter: I know you're worried about the level of illegal migration into this country. •• Digital ID is another measure to make it tougher to work illegally here, making our borders more secure. Ours is a fairer Britain, built on change, not division.

I actually don’t give a fuck about the level of “illegal migration”

Why do they react to compliments like someone just handed them a live grenade?

You are extraordinarily naive, my gosh

Can’t explain it but of course they want to take away one of the only painkillers that’s safe for pregnancy, a condition that causes weird and unusual pains. these people WANT pregnancy to be a punishment and handicap. they want to control.

Reading @swordsjew.bsky.social's Wild Faith and shocked by the scale and institutionalisation of abuse in evangelical circles.

It must be terrifying to think the devil and demons are hiding around every corner trying to catch you. No wonder they all have that over-alert look in their eyes.

The reason people associate that flag with racism is because racists use it. So if that upsets you, get mad at the racists for co-opting your flag! Don't get mad at everyone else for simple pattern recognition.

The weird thing about the England flag debate is that as far as I can tell, a bunch of racists are upset that when they advertise their racism by sporting that flag, people think they're racist and that...upsets them?

I love London so much. So much.

Did you know that London has the lowest level of ethnic violence of any city of comparable size in the world?

Multiculturalism has in fact worked here. They just don’t want it to be true because we happen to have a Muslim mayor.
