Ha! As if a mere angle could out-influence my rejection sensitivity.
Can’t wait for the Boomers to come out and say:
THIS ISN’T WHAT WE LEARNED IN SCHOOL; THEY’RE REWRITING SCIENCE
I may carry the dubious distinction of being the first Jewish artist to be de-platformed and defunded by Germany
The first? You sure about that?
My bad.
No joke, didn’t Nero marry a trans woman?

Age of consent is 18 in the United Kingdom, when the older individual has a duty of care for the younger.
Thanks :)
Hi, I’ve installed KISS after reading this comment and there’s one thing I don’t understand. Is one supposed to manually select their ‘Favourites’ or are they populated by KISS with use? I couldn’t find an answer to this anywhere else.
Absolutely. Just a warning that one’ll drive themselves mad if they dig into every error produced in any Reach publication with the sheer amount of content they publish so quickly.
IIRC the Mirror and the MEN are owned by the same company (alongside most other ‘local’ papers including the Birmingham Mail and the Bristol Post).
If he was an ethnically Bangladeshi teenage girl, we in the UK could definitely find a way to render him stateless.
The problem is that, this helps Putin. If we assume he has no regard for human life, then this is a massive opportunity for him. He’s made the most out of opportunities like this one in the past.
This attack on innocent lives is a profound tragedy as it is. I wish I could spend more time dwelling on the plight of the victims but my brain won’t stop panicking about all the ways Putin can exploit this situation to ruin even more lives.
It’s why I couldn’t shake the idea that this might be a false flag operation. It’s why I can’t deny the prospect that perhaps Russian security services didn’t do all they could to stop this before it occurred.
My thoughts to the victims and those close to them.
I’m not expecting people to know. I’m expecting the AP to educate their readers.

Thanks for your input. Maybe non-Brits won’t understand that I’m not trying to be elitist. It’s just that, as far as I can remember, even in our shit-tier tabloids, he’s called the Taoiseach. Sure, it’s confusing the first time but I don’t think it’s the hardest thing to pick up from context. Prime Minister immediately smacks like a mistake or a lack of care.
I think the best thing would be maybe refer to him as PM in the headline (if there’s no better alternative) but then as Taoiseach in the article.
I understand their justification and I assume both the author and their editors are aware of the real term. However, before I noticed that this was from the AP, I assumed this story was from a less-prestigious source because referring to Varadkar as a PM felt like a mistake akin to if someone referred to Rishi Sunak as a ‘President’ (as the Spanish use it) or ‘Chancellor’ (as the Germans use it). I wouldn’t have even commented upon it if this was the Daily Mail or such but I’d have assumed the Associated Press would respect their audience enough to understand the word with context and perhaps a short disclaimer.
I’m honestly curious as to what sort of evidence you’d like to see? By the standards of ancient history, Jesus of Nazareth is a reasonably well-attested figure.
