jabby posted:For anyone who still watches terrestrial TV, 'Confessions of a Junior Doctor' is a series starting on Channel 4 tonight and it's basically one long party political broadcast for Labour. What did you make of/were you aware of the recent Radio 4 series 'Why Become A Doctor?'? I caught bits of the second one in passing and felt the same (though I'm definitely biased). Any qualified opinion on whether it's worth listening to in full? E: 1184 BC Illium falls to the Greeks (depending on who you believe), just another part of the eternal war.

forkboy84 posted:Furries are funny but harmless (so long as they aren't one of the ones that fucks actual animals). Propertarians? Also hilarious, and while unlikely to ever actually put their deranged ideas in power because they are all total loving dorks who just yell about the NAP when someone kicks them in their balls, still far worse than being a furry. I just find them to be obnoxious twits who spam their porn every time a subject related to the furry fandom appears. Every time a subject like Undertale or Zootopia comes up they spam it like mad which is especially egregious when it happens on 4chan's blue boards (blue is worksafe, green is anything goes except for illegal content). Yeah buddy I don't care what you fap to but don't spam it everywhere like a knob you know? At least the times have moved on from MLP being spammed everywhere.

Depends where they fall. SNP's 9% (I'm guessing they're the main lump in other) nets them 50 seats while the Lib Dem's 12% may not even result in Sweet Fanny Adams. Although since the map is Tory favoured WELP

Josh Lyman posted:What are some good politics podcasts for keeping up with developments? Can't really think of any decent one. Can't think of many bad ones for that matter. The Guardian' Politics podcast always just seemed really boring to me. Pissflaps idea of someone screaming for an hour is pretty on the money, not so much for the policies but more the general vibe.
