Yep, love how this site goes on about the things the president does that are offensive, then uses that tired old stereotype.

When speaking about brits living abroad, we call them expats. Anyone coming to live in the UK is an immigrant.
I would expect everyone else to use the same terminiology because expat comes from expatriate, which is the term used for people living in another country yet not citizens.

Yeah, if she succeeds, don’t come running to me crying when the religious right start clawing more power to themselves. This will open the door for them to bring in their religious bullshittery.

I predict a few men identifying as women to be put in the smaller pool. More chance to win that way it would seem.

Because women might not win then there would be whining, articles, lawsuits, generaly unpleasantness.

Are you trying to say that there haven’t been countless pieces about how diverse they were? Even here and Jez, there were pieces about it. One had full page spreads asking people to note the differences between the two sides.
When everyone in the media, even here, is focusing on their race and gender rather than…

While I get the point, the fact that places like this and Jez are going all out as though she is the only one who can save the country, aren’t doing the left any favours.
It’s okay if she cocks up. Call her out on it, comment on it, be understanding, but don’t try to defend her because that’s not helping. Being…

You’re part of the problem.

I started going out on a night out when I was 18. I drank, sometimes heavily because I was young and stupid. I danced and laughed, met new people and made friends.
Never once in all those 22 years of nights out, have I been in a fight, been stabbed, or had some nutter shoot at me.
My daughter is 19 now and I am…

Come on people! Get out there and vote. I have money riding on this election and if the Reublicans win, I don’t!

Wait til the results are in. Buy the booze now, will need a lot to wash away your hopelessness.

Yes, yes it is.

Yeah, but thats the point. I watch a film for escapism. We don’t have billionaires building super suits (yet, looking at you Musk) and we can just suspend disbelief a little and enjoy it.
If I want footage of police shooting a black kid, I can just turn on the US news. It’s not escapism. And when you are in Europe and…

Problem is, a lot of people get called troll for having a different opinion, even a reasonable one. they will still get spam flagged by a lot of upset snowflakes.
This will be one huge echo chamber.

Pretty sure I’m blocked on a few of them, because someone took offence to me.

I took the option to work from home as soon as I could and never looked back.
Mobile working is the best. Don’t have to talk to anyone in the office or put up with their choice of curry for lunch when I can’t stand the smell of it.

Is it weird that it took me several minutes before I realised you were talking about prepared fish and not just like goldfish or whatever.

Yeah, this sort of garbage is why they can shout about fake news and so many people agree.
This is low and I expected better, even from the piss poor ‘journalists’ here.

No, a lot of them are.
Ok, the roncom thing. Go look on Amazon at best sellers in romance. Billionaire bad-boy or shifter nonsense will be high on the list. there are a heck of a lot of them. Why? because if people like something, they want more of that same thing.
Now take a look at a lot of the TV shows and movies…

Yes, but wanting them to be mainstream and as big as those other shows, means they need to translate to international audiences.
Riverdale (Tv series) can play in most countries. Iron Man - sure, The Equalizer, absolutely,
Basic plots and themes that are instantly recognisable in any culture wil sell. A film about the…
