The triple lock just makes sure that people who had a wage allowing a comfortable living their entire worklife continue to be comfortable at the expense of the current young working population who'll probably not even receive a state pension. Burnham should should show some fortitude and scrap it.

It's just occurred to me that two of the best horror films of the last couple of years are about snapping twigs and the shithousery that ensues.

Trying to imagine a more deranged take on being a scalper than 'No one has supported Pokemon more in the past than us, helping distribute the product at fair market value instead of underpriced MSRP'.

Meanwhile, friends have suggested we set up a gofundme to help alleviate money worries while trying to get Flo back on her feet again. And then they did all the hard work setting it up as well. So if you'd like to help, please have at it. And if you can't that's fine too. gofund.me/d0d4004d7

Do you get the thing where you're parked by another car in a car park and it starts slowly reversing out of the spot and because your brain has for some reason decided to use it as its point of reference for motion you think your car is rolling forwards and you freak the fuck out? No, me neither.

Trans people (and antifascists, and everyone else) have been asking for locked accounts since day one to stop block evasion and prevent harassment/doxxing, which would so easy to institute, but no, we're going to get the big fucking Toxicity Abacus out and see who calls Aaron a cunt too much.

Back in my *much* younger days I went home with a lovely young lady from a club. The next day at work I sent a message to my friend I'd been at the club with which was something like 'That girl I went home with last night was absolute filth. I think my back needs stitches' (This is NOT the kind...

Back in the 70's, when the lead singer of the Who had a mental breakdown, the rest of the band wanted him committed. But his psychiatrist refused to do it because it says in the bible, "Thou Shalt Not Commit A Daltrey."

Until very recently, the word “woke” conveyed something beautiful: political awakening in the context of the African-American liberation struggle. The way it has been forcibly stripped from that context and transformed into a ubiquitous term of derision is shockingly cruel & inherently anti-black 1/
