Always glad to see a fellow beef head out in the wild. Beef out!

History podcasts I like:

Revolutions. Well known; Mike Duncan goes through various revolutions through history in an excellent, detailed narrative.

American History Too!: two academics from the university of Glasgow have various guests on to discuss different topics from American history. They know their stuff and are really charismatic.

In Our Time: BBC podcast that’s been going since the early 2000s. A panel of academics are interviewed and discuss a topic on which they are all experts. Incredibly well researched and interesting, though not especially humorous.

Yeah, these kind of posts always feel kinda mean if it’s not him that’s put that caption.

People who aren’t conventionally attractive are allowed to have a sense of style and wear fun clothes too.

Everett True wouldn’t put up with this shit

It’s also just commonly done in UK newspapers. Age and familial status is always given. Terry Pratchett made a joke about it in one of his books, though I can’t remember the quote.

Edit: found one (not exactly the gag I wanted but CBA to look further)

‘Exc–’ he began. But the citizen’s eyes had already detected the notebook. ‘I saw it all,’ he said. ‘Did you?’ ‘It was a ter-ri-ble scene,’ said the man, at dictation speed. ‘But the watch-man made a deathdefying plunge to res-cue the old lady and he de-serves a med-al.’ ‘Really?’ said William, scribbling fast. ‘And you are–’ ‘Sa-muel Arblaster (43), stonemason, of The Scours,’ said the man. ‘I saw it too,’ said a woman next to him, urgently. ‘Mrs Florrie Perry, blonde mother of three, from Dolly Sisters. It was a scene of car-nage.’

Some plants the flowers are very pretty, but the whole plant isn’t practical to be kept indoors (e.g. roses), and they don’t necessarily flower all year round. If someone has a favourite flower or favourite colour of flower, it makes them feel special when someone thinks to buy them for them (they get a flower they love to look at for the next week, and they know that someone cares about them enough to buy them flowers, and keep the knowledge of which like).

There’s a pretty obvious difference between a kid who’s 12, and someone you could reasonably mistake for being an adult (UK age of consent is 16).

Dunno about you, but when I was 19 the thought of raping a child never crossed my mind. He’s spent less than a year in prison, and hasn’t repented for what he did. Redemption has to at the very least come with an understanding that what he did was wrong.

Edit: slightly more than a year; 13 months

It’s such a neat line, and it was great to watch the players’ and commentators’ reactions

GNU Terry Pratchett

Lichess :P

Pick ones with a loose fit haha. There are plenty around.

Here you go :)

Yeah, I’ve had that problem. One of the nice things about Reddit was r/tallfashion – acc had links to stuff with decent waist and inside leg. Have found some women’s trousers pretty good for that too.

Excellent; no notes. Do they have the full series anywhere?

What about the comic made you think it was implying that?

Someone read the prince :P

Good ol’ fashioned internet. Just like mama used to make it

so arousing being a grown adult drinking from a water fountain. pert little hydration booty sticking out behind u. know just what to do with my eyes. stare longingly into the chrome phallus delivering me sweet nectar. then close them, half from genuine pleasure; half erotic performativity. then, rising, choking on fluid, wiping the remains of my intimate encounter from the corner of my mouth, a smirk of pleasure on my plump, hydrated lips.

I think I’d still argue the free open source part is inherently left wing. Why would I, a right wing libertarian, lend my time to developing a piece of software that I am unable to make a profit from? I have no motive.

Something like bitcoin is the kind of tech project of that mould that i think attracts the right wing libertarian. Just my opinion though.

Eh, there’s plenty of educated right wingers. Not fascists as much, but the kind of fiscally conservative economists who preach austerity are often as not highly educated, just lacking in empathy.
