Apparently the current version peaks in protection after about a month, so... orgy at the end of November, I'm guessing?

From what I've seen, the organiser only asks that people don't repost the whole video, or do a transcript of the whole thing. Plenty of people have been sharing quotes etc.

Where's the cool for young people these days? Where's the weird? This might be old man yells at cloud, but what the hell happened to youth fashion culture?

Christ on a bike, it's two weeks away and I've already heard Zombie on a Halloween playlist.

Do young people want youth clubs? The article doesn't hear from any of them. Our local youth club died because only four young people were attending on the reg.

It's a shame that he's swung so far to the right in his old age after being interesting and inventive as a young comedian.

Not even a good stage magician.

Well you're still looking an absolute cutie, even if you don't feel like going out and about like that.

I wonder why they have such a good recipe for pork. Surely just a coincidence.

In France?

Christine Wada did the costume design for #Loki, right?

A meerkat with its paws on the ledge of its enclosure.

This brave little guy ran up to check me out as soon as I got to their enclosure this morning. Immediately made me think of Dave Fane's escaping meerkat story (IYKYK).

Interesting that 72% is represented as filling less than half the bar.

Yup, and it's £100, which I doubt very much most people will be willing to pay.

The only people who are now eligible for covid vaccines are those aged over 75, elderly care home residents, and people who are severely immunosuppressed (people with HIV, SCID, undergoing radical radiotherapy, etc).

I'm sure this will be fine.

This year, the NHS has severely limited its list of who is eligible for a covid vaccine. The press release says it's because it's "now a relatively mild disease", meaning those with long term conditions like cystic fibrosis no longer need to be vaccinated.

Haha I went and looked it up after this, because I was pretty sure it didn't fit the definition, and yup! Scottish banknotes aren't legal tender in England. Still annoying that the shop wouldn't take it though.

Is being very tired why you called it legal tender?

Really glad you've found something that works for you! I hope it continues to show positive effects in future studies.

Covid is our generation's lead - people ignore the scientists yelling louder and louder about how it causes brain damage, because the alternative is making inconvenient changes.

Oh huh, antihistamines help? Hadn't heard that one before! Neat!

Bert and/or Bertie?

a very bleak development in terms of my view of the world in the last few years has been both ‘the Israeli govt is much worse than I thought and deserves an enormous amount of criticism’ and ‘yeah a lot of people geniunely are just low-grade antisemitic’ both apparently being true.

He was her boss. The fact you think she was a slut doesn't make his conduct appropriate.

Most people would class it as misconduct for a man in a position of extreme power to fuck his college intern.

Yup! As far as I can tell from more balanced reporting, he was arrested for harassing a woman and for calling on people to punch women they think might be trans.

This is much more relevant to the actual reason for his arrest than the Guardian's headline.

A headline from the Guardian which reads "Father Ted creator Graham Linehan arrested over posts on transgender issues".

Harold Shipman arrested over inappropriate use of prescription drugs.

It's a very modern American interpretation to think that fighting for roses is about fighting for nice things to put in your house. When we fight for roses, we're fighting for dignity in labour and for full access to culture.
