you can actually inflate your scrote pretty safely with sterile saline, syringes, needles, and aseptic technique. its a niche kink iirc

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

Theres no actual reason for them to tank. Its just panic/punishment. Itll be back to normal in less than a month

(and can't post for 5 years!)

From the Telegraph financial section:

More than £1.5 trillion is expected to be wiped off world stocks today as the Brexit bloodbath sends global stock markets into free fall.

Global stocks are now poised for their worst daily loss ever.

In just three hours of trading, the FTSE 100 has lost 4.4pc, with some £73bn wiped off the value of Britain's biggest companies.

Meanwhile, European bourses are also reeling from the shock result. Frankfurt's DAX is down 7.3pc and the CAC in Paris has fallen 8.7pc.

The referendum outcome hit Greek stocks hardest, with the country's benchmark index plunging 15.3pc.

In the US, stocks futures are tanking in pre-market trading. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures are both off by 3.6pc and the Dow Jones has tumbled 2.8pc.


This makes the claims of the leave-side even more ludicrous. I thought you said nothing bad would happen guys?

You just gave me a great idea buddy.
neoliberalism destroys the working and middle classes, grinding people into poverty, which gives rise to xenophobia and right/left wing extermism. it is something the progressive and new deal generations spent their lives guarding against with labor, consumer and enviromental protections. and neoliberals have spent their lives dismanteling or circumventing those protections. and now people are suprised by the outcome? as economic disparity gets worse, social unrest and political extremism will get worse - it is guaranteed to happen, there is no escaping it. neoliberalism is a socially, enviromentally and democratically unsustainable ideology.

I don;t know how to embed a tweet but Chris Hayes said on Twitter that it really sucks that politics is now just about cosmopolitan finance capitalism versus enthno-nationalism and I thought that was pretty on-point

you what could have prevented this? a left that gave a gently caress about the working class.

Just wait until we elect Trump, the US and the UK are gonna smash the gently caress out of the comfortable class neoliberal elite and burn this motherfucker down

Britain was the greatest when it wasn't part of the EU. Victorians conquered the Globe. Why wouldn't you want to be closer to that than servants of the EU ?

The Duke of Wellington didn't win a brilliant victory at Waterloo just so you can achieve Napoleon's dream 100 years later.

How much did the EU bugled migration response contribute to this result ?
