I’ve tried moving to signal but at most I have about 3 friends that use it with me, it simply not possible to dump it completely and remain in contact with all my friends and family members.

Page 3 of the sun newspaper was the famous one for just having a topless women emblazoned on it

Some think they can curry favour by thowing the bigots a bone. The ‘LGB drop the T’ group can fly under a radar for a bit by piling in on the most hated upon group but don’t seem to realise that they will be squarely back in their sights once the job is done…

I believe it was coined by Kate Nash for her song - https://youtu.be/q2MoQJP-PhA

I made the mistake of looking at youtube comments on this story… Holy racism batman…

I can sort of accept old mps going there but there is no way you could make me view hereditary peers or lords spiritual as even slightly acceptable. I would like to see a more merit based second house.

The concept of house of lords has never been a problen for me, the issue is the undemocratic makeup of its members.

I was so confused when i found out not everyone had channel 5. And we had the vhs tuned to 5 on the tv so channel 5 was on 6…

There are non-venomous vipers?

I’d say outside the US there is generally less of that macho psuedo military ‘alpha male’ vibe and it is generally less tribal with internal protection, but there will always inherently be something problematic with a job that places people above their peers in power and the people that apply for it. Whilst many may do it entirely for good reasons there will always be bad actors. I dont really see ACAB as entirely true, even in america, but i think the role itself as a job will always be a problem in society.

I met one for the first time ever on a work trip to NC and can confim i nearly died overnight…

A UK pancake is very much that same large like a crepe but more substantial as well. Enjoyed almost exclusively on pancake day with sugar and lemon (we did blood orange juice because fancy).

I’m fully aware of how the system works, thank you very much for explaining at me. I’m saying the ruling itself is arse backwards and jumps to a lot of baseless and genuinely misogynistic conclusions. It is difficult to read it as an objective clarification on anything, let alone a positive one.

In which case the ruling, even if one was to accept it as a valid interpretation, let alone its effect on people involved, is arse backwards and has the potential to cause significant harm in the short term.

Decades of gender = sex in legal wording, documents and policy makes it very difficult to detangle the intent of what is meant by sex or gender in each case.

This particularly undermimes obtaining a GRC which updates the specifically labelled ‘Sex’ field on a birth certificate. So now we can have people with legal documents stating their ‘Sex’ being barred from same sex spaces aligning with their documentation.

I think you are thinking of network rail who owns the infrastructure. GBR came about in 2021 when none of the operating companies were getting any money and so the government basically ran it for them. Basically it is de-facto back in public hands and GBR will take over once each operating company’s contract is up (I think SWR is first). At least that is my understanding of it.

Also the rolling stock wasnt typically owned by the operating companies, they would lease them from the ones who did like Angel trains and Porterbrook.

Isn’t that what GBR is already set up for in regards to rail?

Other than miles most of our stuff is metric anyway, at least legally. Like yeah, we use stones and feet for ‘human’ measurements in speech etc but if you go to the doctors it would be in kilos and metres. There are a few oddities like milk bottles being in pints and beer in pubs but even then you find things like plant milks and bottles/canned beer in litres. The one that really makes no sense is car fuel efficiency. We sell fuel by the litre but measure it in miles per (imperial) gallon - so it doesnt even tie up with American figures.
