The new political spectrum is

Reform/con, Liberal/labour, green

With a labour led coalition, we could shut the right wing populist fruitcakes (who damaged this country with Brexit and continue to damage it with immigration division) out of politics in this country for a generation
This is good to see from Labour and they have to do it, to level some blame at Farage. I just hope it doesn't turn into a platform for Farage to promise those deficient in critical thinking that he'll finally be able to lead us to the sunlit uplands

leave the goats out of this. If we have to sacrifice anyone we might as well just go in with Bezos and keep piling on tech bros from there.

ages, Anna Maxwell-Martin has been filming unforgivable and Star City for Apple TV
Isn't most of the wait these days not actual production, but cast schedules. It used to be that TV meant signing an exclusivity deal, so filming schedules could truck through. These days that's not a thing. It's the reason we now see Hollywood actors in serialised productions and why stuff takes />

No medieval filter here! A modern recreation of a Viking ruler for Denmark’s National Museum, based on the depiction of Cnut in the New Minster Liber Vitae and on clothes found at a grave in Mammen, Denmark. #medievalsky
These people started out wrong, then discovered hanging out and schilling each other wrongness was a great money spinner then all drank each others wrong cool aid and now they're dying of how wrong they are.
Just sent this to my Italian-speaking friend, turns out in Italy 'non-binary' is gendered - you're non-binario or non-binaria, depending on whether you're male or female

People coming over to tell us how bad things are on twitter have the same energy as 'hey I bumped into your ex and she's really into meth now...' that's why no-one wants to hear. Once we loved.

Being unreasonably optimistic and fair, but what if this machine is actually teaching men how to show an interest in women and communicate with them in a way they've never been shown how to before. What if it kind of sticks. What if that's why it works?
They hate all Muslims. They'll pretend to like Muslims with oil if it suits them.
I'm afraid this is too broad. Those born in 1995 could potentially have had an iphone as their first phone. They'll be Cappucino Assasino before you can say 67. The only people allowed to use the internet should be Xennials '75 - '85
