Just walked past a group of kids and the weed they were smoking smelt not just green, but M&S emerald green!
Sorry, guys, there's no way you're going to keep a drag of that unbreathable stuff down long enough to get high.
Oh, yes. It's amazing how much of a 3m. wide path one man can take up!
Hey! Don't lump us peace-loving Angles in with those war-like Saxons!
I grew up in the days when a computer could cost a month's wages or more and a game a day's wages; and let me tell you, we did not want games to be too easy! If you could get past the first level in one day, that was considered very bad!
Told someone their next payment was due on 27 Inst, and they did not know what I meant ?!
By showing racist/queerphobic/ableist material *only* to people already suspected of harbouring bigotries, alongside content posted by people who *haven't* seen it but would complain if they did, Facebook are creating an illusion of acceptability.
Facebook's selling point is the ability to show different, personalised adverts to every user; but they very deliberately cultivate the false impression that other Facebook users with different political persuasions are seeing the same adverts you are.
My greatest objection to Facebook is the way it does an end-run around social filtering processes to launder obnoxious ideas.
If there is an advert on a billboard, newspaper or TV, and it contains racist, sexist, queerphobic, ableist or similar material, someone will complain about it.
Me standing in front of a pair of glass sliding doors; wearing a blue cowl neck knitted sweater dress, thick black tights, black ankle boots, a black elasticated belt with gold fastener and a gold necklace.
Felt cute, may delete later. #NoPantsFriday
Iran's women's team don't sing the anthem and it's news, Iran's women's team do sing the anthem and it's news.
In a world that didn't give a shit about them beforehand I feel really sorry for them being used as pawns like this.
They're just there to play football, leave them alone. #asiancup
Progressives in the UK who still haven't got the message: the TERFs are now trying to bankrupt the Greens through repeated litigation, with a fresh round dropping now they're demonstrably a credible choice in elections.
Join the dots. "Feminist" transphobia is a vassal of fascism.
It wasn't necessarily seen as deceptive in the UK, where we had a very active "type-in" scene.
Oh, for sure.
But we've all internalised the misogyny for so long, it's hard to see.
This is going to make it hard *not* to see.
Even a simple guarantee to working people that their employers will not be allowed to fire them simply for being unable to drive into work, and a bit of rescheduling of public transport timetables and working hours around each other, will help a lot.
(Unless they are all selfish AHs, of course.)
Like I said, it depends on the geography. There's probably somewhere on the continent with a precipice and suitable sites for artificial lakes.
What's especially good about gravity storage is, you don't even need to be generating electricity to charge it.
Yes, exactly -- especially if you have suitable geographical features to implement gravity storage. And most importantly, as long as they don't try to Nightingale it, the whole new energy supply chain will still be running (and keeping demand for oil down) long after the war is over.
Some of us remember the packaging of Atari 2600 game cartridges, with beautiful artistic impressions all over the outer carton and not a screenshot anywhere to be seen.
People had better imagination in those days!
For sure.
I just think "Sun"-reading Britons would be more likely to see measures such as "subsidising public transport while the cost of running a car spirals out of control" as an attack on motorists, whereas Continental Europeans would be more likely to see it in a positive light.
Why would we expect any different behaviour from a company owned by the sleazebag who originally set up a website for covertly rating the attractiveness of women students at university?
Unless Europe sees the implications, and makes a sudden concerted effort to break its oil addiction once and for all .....
There probably won't be time to get the whole of the Continent onto 100% renewables before the oil shortages begin to bite, but it's a good direction to move in.
It is indeed! Looked a bit nicer than any of the "costbucks" corporate nightmares.
Also, they have a universal toilet.
A flat white and a blueberry and orange muffin.
Proper aftercare following laser facial hair removal treatment!
Probably. And it would cost them more to fight it in court than just to pay for the tests (which probably would not be the end of it, if someone was really determined).
The cruelty is the point, every time.
British female track and field athletes are being asked to cover the cost of their own £185 sex tests if they want to compete internationally. Because curbing trans people's rights to participate in anything subjects everyone to intrusive scrutiny and here, hefty expense. This is not a 'them' issue.
If women have to pay for testing and men don't, that is already going to run hard up against many countries' equality laws.
I suspect they are going to come up with some seriously twisted logic to explain how trans people are to blame for this.
That's what orange juice is for -- to get you started enough to make coffee. Think of it like the methylated spirits in a kerosene lantern, getting the tube hot enough to vaporise the fuel.
Why would it give you what you want (so you go away afterwards, and stop watching the advertisements that are their real business) when it could give you something other than what you want, and thereby get to show you more advertisements?
I had a ginger tom cat who had a thing for tealight candles. He would carry them around with the wick in his mouth, and stash them in his little hiding places around the house.
He needs to understand, relationships between the EU and third countries are strictly on the EU's terms.
