I stopped to talk to a dog servant outside a shop today, too. Dog people can always talk to dog people.

Absolutely – that's why I was keen to point it out. But, by and large, it's safe to assume that dominant multinational corporations don't have your best interests at heart.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to avoid them. And pretty much to make any impact against them. We must still try.

I've heard this before, but I *believe* it is untrue (now). It originates from a report about a pesticide used in the 80s/90s but now banned in the US, EU, and UK. I'm not sure about other countries, though.

Probably had a McDonald's about 5 times in the last decade. Usually out of desperation.

I looked at his leadership pledges and looked at his manifesto, and saw no similarities. I knew he couldn't be trusted.

Former party member. Worked at Millbank for 1997 campaign. Always voted Labour. Voted Green last GE.
Don't trust Starmer. No idea what the vision is – even after more than a year. Policies indicate Continuity Cameron. Rhetoric is Reform Light. Nothing for me here.

What about trans women? Are we all going to have to show the waiter our genitals. (I hope not – I'm not getting banned from ANOTHER restaurant.)

Well... you know... the Isle of Dogs isn't an island, The Dakar Rally is held in Saudi Arabia (Dakar is in Senegal), Panama hats are from Equador, Chinese checkers came from Germany, starfish aren't fish, coconuts aren't nuts, bombay duck is a fish dish... I could go on and on.

You're right. 'Will not' would have made it sound like conviction. 'Cannot' sounds like lack of opportunity.

Come to think about it, it's "strong and stable" and "making brexit work," isn’t it. I'm sure I've seen this one before.

I just worked it out. The lack of punctuation threw me. I thought predictive text must have intervened.
I was reading "its experience" literally (with 'its' being a possessive noun rather than a contraction of "it is"). That's why I couldn't get what you were saying. I was reading it wrong.

Eurovision relates to the broadcaster transmitting the Song Contest rather than the countries competing in it. Australia, Morocco, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Turkey, Russia, Israel, and Cyprus have all competed in the past – going back as far as the 70s.

I see.
So, for example: I have experienced the Eurovision Song Contest in its current iteration, but you still envisage it from your bubble of yesteryear.

I know what the word experience means. I don't know what the sentence, "Its not authority its experience I fear," is supposed to mean.
