For both the NHS and the BBC- we pay for it. We are entitled to it. We are entirely within our rights to point out when it is not fit for purpose without having to worry about it being taken away if we aren't nice enough about it.

My feelings about the BBC are largely in line with my feelings about the NHS.
I think it is vital we have a publicly owned and funded broadcaster and its enemies are my enemies, but I *detest* the way it's talked about as some gift to the peasantry we're supposed to be fawningly grateful for.

Revealing division in my timeline between (1) my insider friends who have lived privileged lives who are very keen that we defend the BBC and think it's important it survives and (2) my outsider friends who feel (at best) ambivalent about the BBC's survival.

I do like how, in the bit of Prescott's memo where he criticises the BBC for editing together different parts of Trump's speech, his own quote of "what Trump actually said" is... edited together from different parts of his speech.

Most annoying re the BBC Panorama thing is that a) Trump did actually incite the riot b) the evidence the show used was presented misleadingly... in a completely unnecessary own goal caused entirely by shoddiness in the face of an opponent where everyone knew his fawning bootlickers would do this

I saw a random reddit comment where someone theorized that Pennywise and Mary Poppins were the same species of primordial psychic entity, but Pennywise feeds on fear while Poppins feeds on joy. both of them eat kid emotions because fear and joy are more intense in kids. This is Canon for me now.

This won’t be possible for everyone but if you are planning on having kids I strongly recommend finding a place to live with two toilets

Me, irl: “the existence of Exeter implies the existence of Currenteter hope this does numbers send tweet”
Imagine if you met someone irl who kept talking like people do on here, throwing under the bus, kept the receipts, lives rent-free etc, you'd quite rightly punch them in the face
