I don’t know, who?

A colleague came back from the US with a big back of mini Hershey’s flavours. Most were ok but I legitimately thought the standard plain flavour had spoilt.

I’m a brit and have loved tyrkisk peber and other “salty” liquorice etc. sweets for a long time. I had a big bag of the hot and sour flavour and was rather sad when I ran out.

I’ve tried moving to signal but at most I have about 3 friends that use it with me, it simply not possible to dump it completely and remain in contact with all my friends and family members.

Page 3 of the sun newspaper was the famous one for just having a topless women emblazoned on it

Im struggling to imagine what would drive somebody to put that on their vehicle, thats utterly vile

43 kilos of leather offcuts

Eww, thats a thing???

Some think they can curry favour by thowing the bigots a bone. The ‘LGB drop the T’ group can fly under a radar for a bit by piling in on the most hated upon group but don’t seem to realise that they will be squarely back in their sights once the job is done…

I made the mistake of looking at youtube comments on this story… Holy racism batman…

It somewhat invalidates non-binary people by not including them. Grammatically it isn’t necessary (and as an aside is unnecessarily clunky, 6 chrs vs 4) so by using it instead of singular they, it can be seen as exclusionary.

Singular they is not a new concept designed to appeal to the “woke crowd”. I was very much taught in school to use singular they, it was always something used when the gender of the subject was unknown and often even if it is known but unimportant. It has been part of the English language for a long time.

There are non-venomous vipers?

It strikes me as extremely stereotypically american and to be honest I’ve never really understood it. To me a name seems such a big part of being an individual that to have the same as a parent seems a little odd - and it always seems to be for men and not women. It also makes me think of rich white oil barons, like Dallas, a very nouveau riche thing to do and maybe a little pretentious.

The main thing i would be concerned of is if there or may be two sons, will the non-inherited name child think they are somehow lesser? Would it create some resentment?

Sharing generational middle names is a thing here but I can’t say I’m personally a fan of doing it for first names.

Thats not to say I don’t find it quite impressive you have already got the counter to 4 or that it is some awful thing like calling your child something stupid or unpronounceable, you know better than an internet stranger in that regard.

Whats the wrong way of crossing your legs?

I’m fully aware of how the system works, thank you very much for explaining at me. I’m saying the ruling itself is arse backwards and jumps to a lot of baseless and genuinely misogynistic conclusions. It is difficult to read it as an objective clarification on anything, let alone a positive one.

In which case the ruling, even if one was to accept it as a valid interpretation, let alone its effect on people involved, is arse backwards and has the potential to cause significant harm in the short term.

Decades of gender = sex in legal wording, documents and policy makes it very difficult to detangle the intent of what is meant by sex or gender in each case.

This particularly undermimes obtaining a GRC which updates the specifically labelled ‘Sex’ field on a birth certificate. So now we can have people with legal documents stating their ‘Sex’ being barred from same sex spaces aligning with their documentation.

Jitsi?

I think you are thinking of network rail who owns the infrastructure. GBR came about in 2021 when none of the operating companies were getting any money and so the government basically ran it for them. Basically it is de-facto back in public hands and GBR will take over once each operating company’s contract is up (I think SWR is first). At least that is my understanding of it.

Also the rolling stock wasnt typically owned by the operating companies, they would lease them from the ones who did like Angel trains and Porterbrook.
