Is anyone investigating how many BBC execs are reform supporters?
I've just been subjected to 20 minutes of rightwing bullcrap on BBC news and it's terrifying to think that some people might actually believe this bias bollocks

Does anyone else remember a sci fi movie where the astronauts go up in the rocket and 2 weeks later they land and everything is gone?
Or am I just seeing the future?

A pot of Bio & Me instant gluten free porridge, with a spoon in it

A pot of Bio & Me instant gluten free porridge, with a spoon in it

A prime example of a company that thought taking out the gluten meant they should also take out the fun and the flavour.
Why are there carrots and seaweed in this porridge, but no sugar?
It is not nice, and there is very little nut πŸ˜•

I can deal with the disasters the residents call us with, but the lack of empathy from other people who work here is traumatic.

BBC reporting on the fashion at Cheltenham, and the big wins, no mention of the 4 dead horses

Why are we still torturing horses and risking their lives so bookmakers can make profit? Why is this legal?

What's it like? having a family that doesn't ruin every good mood? I hear people say they love holidays but can't wait to get home at the end of it, and I think, do you mean you miss the hobbies you couldn't bring with you? I hate home, loathe it, can't afford to leave it.

My 98yr old nan asked me to explain the process of transitioning and the medical options available, she wants to understand what my nephew's best friend is going through. She's 98, don't let anyone tell you age is an excuse for ignorance.

Haven't had a verbal conversation about anything but work for the last 2 weeks, before that it was 6 weeks. I just want to have an occasional chat with someone who doesn't hate me before I've even opened my mouth.
Making plans for 3 months time isn't keeping me going anymore, I hate life

America is proving Milgram and Zimbardo right on a huge scale. Those experiments led to ethics revues and new regulations. MAGA has no ethics to regulate.

Zimbardo is rolling in his grave right now, and probably screaming 'I told you so!'

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

Aaaaaaaaaargh!

You can RELISH a thing or situation.

You can REVEL IN a situation.

You cannot RELISH IN anything.

RELISH is a synonym of REVEL IN.

You would not say REVEL IN in.

Yes, this is a pet hate. Yes, I stop reading if I see this.

Please stop!

My sister told me I breathe out to loudly, it's fucking asthma. Maybe she'd be happier if I just stopped breathing, couldnt offend her by existing then.

Today is 3 years since grandad died, and as much as I miss him, I'm glad he's not here to see Fascism raise it's disgusting head again. He gave up too much the last time,he'd be devastated to see what's happening now

Just been told I've got a weeks holiday to take before march. can't afford to go anywhere, got no one to go anywhere with, and can't think of anything worse than an idle week at home with family,I'd just end up working a 100hr week caring for nan while my mum had a holiday. What's the point

There's a woman at work who organises 'events' for morale. Mostly these are ok & for charity, but she can't "read the room" πŸ˜• today, to combat 'blue Monday' she bought biscuits & cake (none of which were vegan, coeliac or allergy friendly).
I wonder if she even knows why it's called blue Monday?
