I have to have them every couple of years and concur that they're not so bad! The NHS doesn't offer them for screening as standard so if you're in the age group and have other risk factors (like family history) talk to your GP!

At Christmas last year a 19-year-old dressed as Dexter and murdered a beautiful woman called Maria Saceanu, because he really liked Dexter off of the TV show Dexter. Bear remains undefeated. If nothing else, bear is much less of a _fucking loser_

“He likes power, and I feel like this is giving him some sort of power. It’s all about power and control in everything he does…” White supremacists who talk about “protecting women” from migrants are, unsurprisingly, violent misogynists. They do not want women’s safety — they want to control women.

At school we got shown an old safety film that featured a child drowning or nearly drowning in a farm’s grain silo (defo live action, defo the grain). Became a lasting fear. My version of the quicksand joke is “I thought grain silos would be a bigger problem.”

Dialogue tags. They never end. I am of the thought that most of the time you can just write 'said' because it is essentially invisible to a reader. Throw in a different one when you want it to stand out. But beware the siren call of making _all of them_ different
