I was being sarcastic but forgot the the /s

Good job. Doing the country a great service.

Edit: Should’ve added the /s Forgot that there are idiots out there who genuinely think it was a good decision to keep his daughter out.

Have you been? Indonesia or something?

Visiting what?

Are you saying misogyny is part of Islam?

At least they have cameras everywhere!

We’ll just keep killing species until we kill too many and the entire ecosystem around us will collapse with no way for us to technology our way out of it. I don’t know how many species have to die until we understand that limitless growth doesn’t exist. Maybe we never will learn…

They couldn’t leave it there and point a camera at it?

Could’ve spent all that money on housing, the NHS, education, transport, or a bunch of other things. Signaling “fuck the refugees” was more important than “improve the country”.

Thank you for that insight. Kind of hilarious they didn’t figure that out during product testing.

My thought was “I doubt you can make fat only with hydrogen and carbon”, but fats/lipids are literally hydrocarbons. Adding other elements changes the taste, so it isn’t necessary to have mammals anywhere in the production chain.

Very interesting and probably not the first time this is/has been done. It seems quite obvious.

What’s up with people talking about shitting themselves?

The root of the problem is treating universities as a business. Education should be free. I find this sentence particularly disgusting

Mark Corver, the chief executive of DataHE, a higher education consultancy, said the reliance on international student fees was a symptom of the previous government’s failure to increase domestic tuition fees from £9,250 for nearly eight years

It’s a failure to increase tuition??? What the goddamn fuck is wrong with you people? Are you trying to become the USA?

The UK is so fucked…

Why would you grant her that honor?

Let me guess, only men will be forced?

He added the move would help young people learn “real world skills, do new things and contribute to their community and our country”.

LMAO. You know where else they could learn this? In schools, if it were taught! Vocational schools exist too. Or community outreach, or a bunch of other things that don’t involve forcing a person to work for the army.

I was lowkey hoping it was something voluntary and convoluted. Thought they had figured something out.

Thanks for the information.

Ain’t nothing more conservative than banning fun.

They definitely are. The country was founded by a bunch of slave owners. Yes, back then it was difficult to get a bunch of haggard, sexual deviants from Europe, who believed they were rightful owners of a land they just set foot in, to understand how voting works, and collect those votes in a timely manner across a massive country in a time where the fastest means of transport was a horse. Imagine trying to explain instant run off voting to somebody who was dirty all the time and whipped slaves for fun, or the people who had to work in mines and who could barely read, let alone utter a grammatically correct sentence.

The electoral college and first past the post are relics that have everything to do with their time of conception as well as the circumstances they were conceived in.

It’s not bullshit. You USAians have distilled complex issues to “yes, no”, " with us, or against us", “right, wrong”, “racist, not racist”, etc.

The first past the post system limits the voting options to just two, which limits the power and decision making to a few people who aren’t allowed to diverge from their voter-base.

A centrist republican voter and a centrist democrat voter can’t both vote for a centrist party. They both have to make a decision of “republican or democrat”. A working class USAian can’t vote for a working class party - no it has to be one of the two parties.

It’s much easier for both parties to make it harder for working class people to vote and garner votes from the middle class upwards, than try to serve the working class. Or, they just indoctrinate the working class to vote against their own interests - what option do they have anyway? It’s not like they could vote for a third, forth or fifth party that represents them.

Both parties do little for the working class because they know they don’t have to do much. Feed them propaganda on social media, have political ads that DESTROY, OBLITERATE, SMASH the other side (or whatever sensationalist word is used), make promises, claim moral highground and quote Jebus a few times, and the working class will for them. And if they don’t vote at all, that’s even better!

Yeah yeah, democrats do more than republicans, but “represent” the working class is a stretch.

The USA needs a multi-party system, possibly with preferential voting. The only people with actual representative are the rich, in the USA.
