No idea if me using this will make any difference, but it can't hurt
New pronoun labeller just dropped! Instructions are in the thread and as this is something that becomes more useful the more people are using it, plz do pass it along
The pronoun labeler, which was by far the most useful labeler on the site, was deleted by its creator. But thanks to @ripperoni.com there’s a new one available. I highly recommend it. It’s a great way to share your pronouns or see someone else’s pronouns at a glance.

So a Norwegian biathlete cheated on his girlfriend at the Olympics (many such cases) and then told her about it on the phone (fair play) she dumped him (which I respect) and he then gave an interview where he told the whole world about everything in an attempt to do penance or something
What happened? WHAT DID I MISS? Sounds interesting.....

Amazing

*Saves that one for when Turbos & Tantrums gets to '99*
So RTÉ (Ireland's national broadcaster), showed Formula 1 here from 1995 to 2004.

This was their promo/advert for the 1999 Spanish GP.

One of the most baffling/somewhat funny things I've ever watched. What were they sniffing when deciding this was a good idea 😂

At this point in history, my mum was waddling around and considering nursery colour schemes, which means we're about 6 weeks away from Wuthering Heights #totp

This is neither Yes Sir I Can Boogie nor the Eurovision one. And yet it's also both of them. #TOTP

This bullshit has been going on for generations. A 1996 Simpsons episode tried to teach us.
