We're watching the wholesale burning of every scrap of dignity afforded to trans people in the UK, their rights, their medical services, their employment, their place within society, their bodily functions.
It is a disgrace, and a disgusting stain on the government and media of this country.

“Oh that’s good I have an IT problem ….”
What’s the worst question someone can ask after you tell them your profession? For linguists, it’s definitely “how many languages do you speak?”, but I’m curious what else is happening to the rest of y’all out there?!

I think my most extreme opinion is that we should bring back hanging, specifically and only for Boris Johnson, and that would be morally justifiable.

People are constantly being told the worse thing that could happen to them would be a rise in taxes. So they have to live with bins that aren’t collected, potholes that damage their cars, underfunded schools for their children and at the end of their life cheap care homes or inadequate home care.

starmer is a bland man who could've been likeable if he'd stuck to any of the principles he apparently used to hold. streeting, on the other hand, has a face even a mother could never tire of punching, even if he bought her a donkey sanctuary.

Pixar designed Toy Story to be printed on physical film. The Disney renaissance movies were the same.
Today, it's hard to see them as they were meant to be seen. The versions on streaming and home media aren't quite the same films that ruled the '90s:

Last RT re. Cardiff Halloween Festival: thing is, there are loads of people in South Wales who, if you give them the chance to pay £5 for a very average burger, will be all "Ambassador, you are spoiling us!" So I'm not greatly surprised someone can get away with this.
