PSA - when travelling by train, ‘keep your luggage with you at all times’ doesn’t mean ‘stick it in the next carriage and walk off sparking a security alert and delaying the train’. The train is 3/4 empty, there’s plenty of space near your own seat. Tit.

Women have been talking about this for years. Hollyoaks did a massive story on this not long ago.

But yeah...Jack Thorne said it so now it's being discussed in parliament. This is what male privilege looks like, chaps.

Sadly, the UK television has never quite accepted that they rely on the writing skills of people who are a) a bit on the spectrum and b) went to comprehensives outside of London, which is why the top levels are *really* excited about AI.

A reminder over 700 UK troops died in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars supporting the USA. Thousands more are living with life-changing disabilities and mental health issues such as PTSD.

Is this what they meant by making America great again? America used to be great. Now it's a laughing stock.
NEW: JD Vance describes UK & French troops in Ukraine as “20,000 troops from some random country that hasn’t fought a war in 30 or 40 years”.

Spits in the face of UK & EU troops that died supporting the US in Iraq & Afghanistan.

So revealing. The Atlantic alliance & “special relationship” is dead.

Wonder if Lumon is offering a Donald Trump Severance package? Every time he or Musk or one of their cronies speak, the chip activates and ZIP...gone.

I'd take that.

One reason why I think respectability is stupid is because it's often used as a mask. Such judgements are rarely about the clothes themselves, but more often about the bodies beneath them. To wit, no one raised an issue when Elon wore a graphic t-shirt and ball cap to meet the Trump cabinet.

If there were no problems with diversity in finance, they wouldn't need to abolish the policy, because it would be irrelevant.

It's almost like one misogynistic, racist old white guy in power is empowering others to act the same way...🧐
