Some of the old interfaith web forums of the 00s and 10s have been bought out and turned into Christian websites. Bit disconcerting.

Yes that's magic. Magic that works is still magic

Manifesting is just magic imo.

The Jinhao 10 dries out a bit but is serviceable. The Platinum curidas seems a bit divisive. The Pilot Decimo is a lovely slimmer version of the VP and cheaper but still may be out of your price range.

I found the pit of despair extremely distressing at age 11

I want labour to care about labour. Greens can then care about environmental things.

Tbh I think being mocked for being a poor shot, saying "I'll show them, I'll show them all!" and then fucking it up because he's a poor shot is pretty good as stories go just by itself.

My feeling is that placing a great ape in containment is not treating it well.

Rahm is not an idiot, he's like the democratic Roger stone just unwilling to go as far. He's been pro-trans rights in the past and this is a big change for him so either he's had a stroke or he has some kind of evil plan.

If the major sensation you feel on seeing one is guilt or a deep sense of participating in committing a great wrong, I don't think that has the desired effect.

Why are we sending players on loan when we don't have enough players? Can we get a decent squad before we send any more people away?

He's not having a go at the ref but he's having a grumble, people in the stands are looking at him confused because he's using forrin words like "offside", and one of the opponent supporters says to another "they've got a British person! We should get one of those"

So my step-somethingorothers are playing football (they call it soccer, being American) and n o n e of their families, coaches, or supporters know anything about the game, so my father, child of the british empire, is sitting there in the stands quietly losing his nana

True, but people i know irl who never really talk politics are now talking politics. It's not really important it just felt like a weird thing to stick in a speech.

10.08.2025 06:14 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

I was just thinking that if everyone was sick of politics there wouldn't be so much of it all over social media.

Are people fed up with politics or just fed up with this lot?

Also I think chatgpt writes a lot of these posts.

Idk my take away for most of these is that people as a whole are really lonely.

It's the ones who are already married and have a family that weird me out.

I'm sure some of them are delusional but I think most of them know they're pretending. The role play just gets taken way too far

I haaaaad to go dig into some of these threads. And like they know it's not real. Someone even says something like "the chat gpt is you all along, the person exists in the conversation you create". They're missing that connection so they create an imaginary one.

Greens have long felt like either they're stroppy and immature and won't come to the table, or they cave too easy and get too little. A larger number of seats will hopefully help there

10.08.2025 04:59 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Well them too but i meant the Greens. Like if they hit 35% tomorrow, do they have enough solid list candidates to fill their side of the house? And I don't think they want to. They're better placed pulling the centre further left than leadership atm.

10.08.2025 04:47 β€” πŸ‘ 3    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Not enough substance in the party roll at present, probably. Can you image them rustling up mps to fill all the seats 🫣

10.08.2025 04:42 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Yeah i think I slightly misunderstood your initial post too πŸ˜…

It's so easy though, "Obviously Labour has our own policies, Greens/TPM are an important voice in parliament, we have our disagreements but look forward to discussing these issues with them if we form a coalition after next election"
