If Jessflaps wins we'll see a government in a red rosette in 2025 but it won't be a Labour government.

Fewer people use trains than drink water, therefore nationalising the trains is unjustified.


Edit: She's still too close to Corbyn IMO.

I just got in a twitter fight about Sadiq Khan. Left Labour guy saying to not vote for Khan after he said "the public got it right" on the GE and the Tories "deserved it". Which is obviously lovely and on-brand for him . But this guy seems to be advocating handing the election to an islamophobe Tory (apparently Khan "doesn't care" Tories are islamophobic. Am I wrong that it seems counterproductive to hand London over like that, even if Khan should face repercussions?

The ideal case would be to run a different Labour candidate, but given the choice between Khan and any Tory, I'd still want people to vote for Khan.

Anyway my complaint is I read the forums too much and now I've got the header/footer bars and post button burned into my screen

take that to QCS!!!! the app's nothing to do with the main site I dunno if any of us ever even looked in there

you can turn on Immersive Mode in the Device and Navigation settings and that'll hide the status bar and the nav buttons, and you can turn off the floating post button too (post option will be in the menu). Making the title bar and stuff slide out of the way was a no-go last time we tried it, for reasons, but maybe later if stuff changes. Might be getting light themes maybe!

devil's advocate time - is there any proof that Iran is necessarily stepping up its weapons program (which would be understandable tbh) and not just going ahead with building the modern nuclear power infrastructure they've been denied? Like isn't 4.5% purity fairly standard for modern reactors, and still not really even close to where you can start cascading it into the 95% purity you need for weapons?

Like the whole point of the sanctions has been to keep Iran from developing and maybe selling their oil for $$$ instead of burning it for fuel, and they've been forced to be dependent on other countries for what nuclear activity they do run - and they clearly can't rely on the US acting in good faith in any way whatsoever, so is it even weird that they're abandoning this whole agreement and just getting on with it, if only for their own independence and economic security? Because it's absolutely gonna be spun entirely as "evil Iran begins researching THE DOOMSDAY DEVICE"

Don't do this to me I turn 30 next week and I am not looking forward to it

Friend of mine turned 30 between new years and Christmas. Great party, she found a very disco backless sparkly cat suit to wear and we got trashed will all her glasto mates. She's well known for going to a festival for a couple of days, getting no sleep at all other than 4 hours on the train on the way home and showing up at work perfectly fine.

Met her for brunch this morning. She's been deathly sick for the last five days, barely able to swallow and just curled up on the couch.

Anyway what I'm saying is the curse of 30 is real. Good luck.



Fake Edit: Oh yeah and happy new year and all that guff. I'm still recovering from driving a total of 900 miles in three days to see all the family.

The fact that they're under imminent threat of US invasion should be proof enough. Nukes are the only way they can get out of the hole Trump has put them in.

There has never been any real evidence that Iran has ever seriously pursued nuclear weapons, that's just the bullshit pretext for why the US should get to gently caress them over whenever they want to.
