My mum ordered a new freezer from AO and when the delivery van came, it did not have a tail lift - apparently the company won't pay for them
The two guys were expected to lift freezers, washing machines etc off the back of the van themselves...which does not seem safe
This guy can GTFO

There's an advert on his website for a 'Depot Supervisor' that pays £12.75 an hour for shift work.
If he wants to reduce welfare spending maybe he should pay staff enough that they don't need in-work benefits.

There was a NYC “blackout” storyline that played across Mad About You, Friends, and a short-lived Dabney Coleman show called Madman of The People. The only other sitcom on NBC that night was Seinfeld which didn’t do the blackout story, making Seinfeld Sony Spider-Man?
Mad About You and Seinfeld had a crossover in the first season with Kramer and Mad About You and Friends had repeated crossovers with Ursula so basically the 90s NBC prime time schedule was the marvel universe

I strongly suspect I'm pissing in the wind, but here's my complaint to BBC News about their use of this language to describe a *teenage victim of crime*. I even said I want a response, like someone who is *determined* to suffer.

I love that somehow the only two options available when naming this man were “Rupert Henry” and “R. H.”
![R. H. Bing (October 20, 1914 – April 28, 1986)[1] was an American mathematician who worked mainly in the areas of geometric topology and continuum theory.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:cyyd366g3hrxp5rynixm2mm3/bafkreid62wy3dekb2kzbisjfdlimlb35j4rlgew5iof7vi32byfszmg26a@jpeg)
![Bing's father was named Rupert Henry, but Bing's mother thought that "Rupert Henry" was too British for Texas. Thus she compromised by abbreviating it to R. H.[5] Consequently, R. H. does not stand for a first or middle name.
When Bing was applying for a visa, he was requested not to use initials. He explained that his name was really "R-only H-only Bing", and ended up receiving a visa made out to "Ronly Honly Bing".](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:cyyd366g3hrxp5rynixm2mm3/bafkreigmfj53q4uy33spga2bxdkllqm3ag5sffovg5g7ddmu3vqzkb6k24@jpeg)

so if i understand this correctly, gaines has made her career by publicly calling trans athletes predators and threats to women while completely failing to ever mention even once that her mentor/college swimming coach was sexually assaulting and harassing women on the team while she was there?
Riley Gaines climbed the MAGA ladder by vilifying trans women in sports. Now, teammates are speaking out about the real problems on her team: abusive coaching, sexual harassment, eating disorders. ow.ly/o3wq50XuCzp
How right-wing superstar Riley Gaines built an anti-trans empire
The swimmer tied a trans woman for fifth. The MAGA industrial complex took care of the rest.
