That was the first thing I picked up. And then double checked it was actually a government agency and not a fan-fiction written by a 14 year old. That's basic English! 🙄

Anyway, now we know what the FCC thinks is in the public interest:

Fox host advocating for executing homeless people? Yes

ABC comic suggesting Trumpers are using a death cynically? No

That's what I do too. Space is an issue for me so I use digital book/music/films to consume media but the ones I love? I buy the book/cd/dvd so I have it because I don't trust it will be available to me forever!

This is what we've been finding, too AND that's before some films just aren't available to stream (even to buy digitally) anywhere! Looking at you, Karate Kid 2 🤷🏼‍♀️ So the 'these are my favourite books that I buy a physical of after reading the ebook' bookcase now has a DVD counterpart 😁

Profile, three lines, scan down to device permissions, location services. Mine is off but I get this, have zero clue if this is the new rollout or not

I've always liked the theory that cool is just weird with confidence. And I mean the confidence to *be* weird and fully yourself 😊

Why are the 'fancy' foods almost all seafood? I loathe all of it (fish fingers to caviar) but it's definitely skewed towards higher class fishy stuff 🫤

But I think there's a difference between respectful face-to-face discussion and not having to look at shouty keyboard warriors with zero interest in anyone else's perspective. Also, a black guy going to a KKK rally expects discourse, sometimes on socials I just want kitten videos, not hatred 🤷🏼‍♀️

Hihi! Hope the event went well (the photos looked amazing!) I've tried to DM you about arranging delivery of ma book but for whatever reason I can't 😅🤷🏼‍♀️ I can get a postal payment to you however you prefer!

What a lot of shite. Them, not you, obvs. That says more about them than you - children aren't a salve for what is missing in your life! 🤦🏼‍♀️

Do people still think like this?! Bloody hell 🫤 I am a very happy parent (of an adult who is adamantly againt having children!) but think no less of my friends who chose to not procreate. It has zero value on their worth as members of society 🙄

Done! I've ordered through Waterstones (hope that's right 🤞) Have a great night and we can sort post afterwards 😊

I absolutely cannot make this, but the book sounds delightful! Is there a way to buy a ticket/book and pay to have it sent to me? (us Lindsey/Lyndseys have to stick together 😁)

Bezos stood behind Trump at his inauguration. Trump has been decisively erasing women's (and other groups) accomplishments from collective history. Bezos *then* tries to publicise his space tourism toy using a 'look, feminism!' trope. At absolute BEST that is tone deaf, come on ... 🫤

Did you see the reactions outside the courthouse and in various media? It most certainly has been taken as 'a win' and if you think it doesn't have real world implications you are impossibly naive

I was accused of being racist for posting an unrelated cute video at the height of BLM protests. Despite obvious evidence I was being vocal online, signing petitions, emailing and donating (I'm British, can't exactly call my senator, can I?) AND during a lockdown. I needed those kittens, dammit!

I understand when people say this (no details, a simple 'I have an urgent health issue, could I possibly cut in please?') but in my experience the vast majority never do and just breenge in. Reckon they think they're too good to queue

Well that's a lot of rubbish! 😉 Seriously, I wouldn't say bollocks in front of my Granny or in polite company (genitalia references being somewhat frowned upon) but rubbish (both a noun for trash and something not-that-great or nonsense) is fine!

He told huge lies about free speech in Scotland, too (we can't pray in the privacy of our homes, apparently) so The Tango Tyrant is in for an even warmer welcome than usual when visiting his ancestral home 😈

From Scotland it looks an awful like the Dems can't fight for their *own* people, much less any other nation's 🫤 NGL, that's been the saddest thing about the past few months, the utter lack of significant political pushback (or at least the appearance of one)
