Our tiny little post office in rural France has a sign saying that they no longer ship parcels to the US. Moronic actions have global reach.

Freed From Desire is an up to date reference, grandad. Oh wait that's 30 years old.

There's just no need in this day and age to keep every book you ever read. It's just hoarding. Set a fixed permitted volume of space, then it's one in, one out.

If not British I would have said Saul Berenson and Inigo Montoya. So I'll say one of the guys forced to play tubby bearded working class Northerners in UK stuff but who can play Kings in the US.

Shows get cancelled all the time. It's not always because of Nazis.

If you think this is unimportant, you have not studied enough history. So many turning points in history hinge on relationships and alliances between leaders, either holding or breaking.

Here in rural France, working people live in bigger houses, often with land, that would be unthinkable in the UK. Smaller cars though. Not many SAAB convertibles round here.

Aha! Fantastic, I was combing through all the settings and it was right there in front of me. Thanks.

@podcastaddict.bsky.social Hi, without me knowingly changing anything my end, he app has suddenly started removing any fully listened podcasts from the lists entirely. ie if I click on the list of episodes for a particular podcast, they are hidden. So I can't revisit old episodes. Is it my doing?

Of course your life depends on it. Don't be ridiculous.

I can't stand this trend for judging how "problematic" everyone is. The sooner we accept that, as per the song, everyone's a bit of a c*** sometimes, the happier we will be. The "do better" crowd make the world a sh**tier place.

Drama queen. Calling people extremists yet saying you're willing to die. Luckily we all know you're lying and you'll do nothing more brave than call women names on the internet. You're losing ground precisely because your arguments are weak-name calling, intimidation and misogyny only got you so far

Hmmm you seem like a stable person. It's exactly this violent rhetoric that helped turn the tide. Carry on young man.

I think the tra's only hope of victory was this blitzkrieg strategy. Insults, calling all opposition hate crimes, having people arrested for leaflets with dictionary definitions, capturing public body training etc. Their arguments didn't stand up to reasoned debate. It almost worked....

This is the saddest fesshole of all time. A French writer could knock up a weighty novel based on this story.
