I am both dyslexic and sarcastic … which means problems.
Have you ever been to France.

I was just basically saying that’s not even what we would call them over here and most countries have a similar variation on the theme.
Also the united kingdom is basically built on this kind of argument so I’m sorry it spills over annoyingly.

I regret to inform everyone in this conversation that no country or culture has the exclusive rights to self rising flour buttermilk and lard/butter.

Not all scones are sweet I live in an area where cheese scones are pretty common

As a north west of England resident that is not a barmcake. It’s a scone.

“I stuffed their mouths with gold” wasn’t said because all doctors are inherently socialist.

It’s probably one of the most astonishingly unlikely films to get made.

Opening pitch: I’m going to make a film based on your on air breakdown that addresses the fallacies of the heroism you’ve portrayed on screen.

JVD: I’m all in

Ive know alpine guides who organise trips on the Italian side of MB pretty much just for the chance of a decent coffee.

Tbf that dog looks like it could take over the CCP in about 4 days if it could be bothered.

It’s a foundational text it’s been quoted many times in the US as a key influence on the American constitution, it still exists though superseded (which is partly why we don’t have a gun problem).
The point is, in a country riven by deep division, it was still written.

Yes the year 1689 was famously free from any form of political division.

It’s not about what you stand for it’s what he does, and if he’s walking around with a Totenkopf tat and a history of bigoted comments that doesn’t seem at best consistent and given the recent history of Fetterman Gabbard and Sinema who appeared progressive I’d be cautious about stepping up for him.

Not quite the reaction I expected

He said he got it in Croatia a country that has laws against the public use of Nazi symbols because they were Nazi’s, he pretty much had to ask specifically for a totenkopf from someone who knew exactly what it symbolises. He knew what it meant nearly 20 yrs ago and got it covered yesterday.

At the same time I enjoy spending an evening wondering wether 7 points in Aramaic does the character justice in CoC

I’ve a definite soft spot for @bastionland.bsky.social random character generation you can have a really interesting PC in just a few dice rolls.

Epically bad
October 21, 2025 at 8:52 PM
Why the hell are so many people completely checking their critical thinking about someone who is just another chancer in the Fetterman/Sinema mold just with a pro Palestinian stance.
October 21, 2025 at 5:09 PM
That is for lack of a better word is bollocks, a Jolly Roger is visually distinct from a totenkopf I guarantee any military history nerd and especially a Croatian tattooist is going to know the difference.

It basically boils down to the inner monologue of “unconscious bias… me … no fuck you .. know your place” but actually written down.
